A good product that helps me to manage complex digital solutions
My advice to others would be that Drupal is not only a CMS, you need to learn the Drupal fundamentals before to start the project. Drupal is a handy tool whenever you work on a digital infrastructure broad project and not only a simple website. So if you have a big project, you can use Drupal. But if you have a small website, like a blog or simple website, my advice would be not to use Drupal, because Drupal is too complex and the cost to maintain the platform can be too high, related to the value of your website, for example. If you have a website with a big product catalog, for example, in many languages and in many countries in the world, then Drupal is good. But if you have a simple website, like a portfolio or five page-website, you can use many other technologies that'd be simple to maintain and implement. On a scale from one to 10, I will rate Drupal an eight. In the next release, I would like to see basic page buttons and better integration with the analytics platform. A drag and drop function to create simple pages will also be handy. For example, if a customer wants to create a landing page, it should be easy for him or her to do so. I would also like to see better translation management.

Seamless presentation and collaboration enhance organizational productivity
There are three main areas for improvement: Firstly, AI capabilities should be integrated into Microsoft Teams to provide better transcript services and offer multiple language support. Secondly, it should allow participants to remain visible during presentations, enhancing interaction. Lastly, it needs broader integration capabilities with other products, like Salesforce, which is currently limited.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We use a part of the solution called Acquia. The personalization portion of this is the most valuable aspect fo the solution."
"You can build websites on it very quickly."
"The feature I find most valuable is that Drupal is a framework and not only a CMS."
"It is good for big projects."
"Sharing screens is valuable."
"The initial setup process is straightforward for technical executives."
"Screen sharing and chat retention are the most valuable features of Microsoft Teams."
"The instant messaging and video meeting features in Microsoft Teams improve my productivity the most. Instant messaging allows for faster responses compared to email. With many colleagues working remotely, video meetings are often the only way to connect. I could even participate in my last meeting while driving to another city. Having meetings, with some people in a meeting room and others joining remotely, is also very useful."
"The communication part has been excellent so far."
"We use Microsoft Teams for group communications."
"The planner and the breakout rooms are good and helpful features in Microsoft Teams."
"The solution is easy to use and helps me to communicate with my students."
 

Cons

"I think the support needs to improve, as well as the integration with tracking and analytics systems."
"Digital experience features like target, segmentation, and campaign management have a long way to go."
"It is a little bit simplified."
"The user experience in designing layouts should be much easier or much more helpful."
"Microsoft Teams could log in faster."
"I think they can improve the all those segments for channel bulking. Also, some functionalities which migrated from Skype for Business to Teams, is not supported by Teams. We had used them in Skype for Business."
"To Do tasks’ ease of use should be improved."
"I think the ability to use a whiteboard in the solution is not very simple."
"Inability to see large numbers of participants."
"The product should improve its pricing."
"Teams requires a stronger network for joining conversations and meetings."
"Since Microsoft Teams is a typical Microsoft product, inviting guest users to the conversation can be problematic if they're not in the active directory."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would like to see better pricing."
"We are satisfied with the price of this solution."
"If you have clients who do not have a computer and are joining with their phones it's an additional fee of $5.00 per user."
"The product is expensive, and I rate its pricing a ten out of ten."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten. Its pricing is fixed."
"Microsoft Teams’s pricing is low."
"Microsoft Teams is a cheap solution."
"It is moderately expensive than other Microsoft products."
"I would rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
