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.

Have streamlined daily workflow and task management but still face inconvenience from recent interface changes and limited integration options
There are challenges and issues in Microsoft Teams, such as after recent updates where group chats were combined with Teams, chats, and groups into one. Users have to work with settings to make it normal again so Teams are separated from chats, and that was a really inconvenient update. Many users ask me to help make it back again to separate Teams and groups from one-to-one chats. That's probably the worst update they've made recently. Additionally, there are some minor features, such as when I work with messages, I don't have an actual forward or quote option when replying to someone's message. I need to be careful not to miss the quote sign. For a lot of people, they are confused about where the quotes option is. I've received a couple of hundred support tickets just regarding this issue. The function to share email to Teams chat doesn't work sometimes due to our compliance policies, and sometimes it would be nice to be able to forward an email to the group chat and have further discussions. Microsoft Teams could improve by being less glitchy because it glitches a lot, leading to undelivered emails and undelivered messages. It would be beneficial if the MS application Shifts, which adds functionality to groups, could be integrated into the groups calendar. Currently, many teams don't use the app because it is not integrated with the general calendar or the Outlook calendar, making it basically a useless application. The platform needs less Copilot and more people. The general Copilot integration into the platform is less glitchy, but Microsoft Teams is quite heavy and glitchy sometimes. Stability depends a lot on compliance restrictions, policies, and quality of internet. Sometimes, when updates are enrolling, the platform glitches, breaks, or shuts down.

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, and the personalization portion of this is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Being a community based product, the relationship with the product itself is providing back to the community."
"The feature I find most valuable is that Drupal is a framework and not only a CMS, and I like that it's a good product to manage complex digital solutions."
"Drupal is an open source content management system which provides an easy installation process, a good range of modules for features' expansion, as well as a supportive community that will help resolve issues that you face with Drupal."
"Drupal is the opposite, since it is not closed software and it does not rely on only one company."
"The site was built on Drupal in three hours."
"I encourage others to use this product; it is a very powerful CMS tool with a lot of themes and modules and is great for enterprise use."
"With over 23,000 contributed modules, there’s a high chance that any feature you want has already been built, and is available for you to use at no cost."
"We like that you can get a lot of users on one call without the call actually failing or losing quality. Hosts can connect, if I recall correctly, up to 90,000 people. If you need a massive company-wide meeting, you can do it."
"The product has improved communication in our organization."
"We can build a team with a group of people and upload documents."
"The solution provides very clear conferencing, even on mobile devices."
"The most valuable features are that it is an all-in-one platform, making it very easy for collaboration with your core employees."
"The mobile app really enabled us to connect meetings on the go from anywhere."
"It is easy to share files online in real time with Microsoft Teams."
"I like the whiteboard feature as well. I'm able to scribble some stuff if I need to explain a couple of items."
 

Cons

"As with most if not all web technologies, theres always an initial learning curve that can seem daunting."
"The main complaints of the clients or newcomers to Drupal are about the UX of the admin interface."
"For specific use cases, there are bugs with its DB Query UI tables (Drupal Views)."
"The admin interface has been lacking in usability."
"Sometimes, you just have to read the code to understand how it works or how to use an API, which is not the best way to learn for everyone."
"It needs better and more themes available for download, like you have in WordPress."
"It has to improve the speed of the admin section. Sometimes you will get stuck while updating the configurations, especially because it uses AJAX in the interface."
"Drupal 8 is only 1.5 years old. It has stability issues, but not major ones."
"The solution needs to be more stable. I have found Zoom to be more stable than Teams."
"The solution needs to improve the APIs."
"The solution's stability can be better."
"Sometimes, other participants cannot see the shared screen during meetings. The tool also needs to automatically switch to devices as we change them. When I try to switch audio from speaker to Bluetooth, I have to manually do that."
"Microsoft Teams could log in faster."
"The solution should improve its user interface and recording features."
"The user interface is slightly weak in Microsoft Teams and could be improved."
"I don't like it very much, but I have to use it because it's the standard in the organization for communication."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would like to see better pricing."
"We don't have to pay for the solution."
"We get the solution on a corporate plan, where everything is included."
"It costs around $12 for SharePoint and Teams per user."
"Microsoft Teams is a cheap solution because it's included in the Microsoft 365 suite."
"The tool's price is part of MS Office 365 and I would rate its pricing five out of ten. The tool's licensing costs are monthly."
"I would rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten."
"Microsoft Teams comes free if you're using it in an organization."
"The standalone license is not cheap."

Jive vs Sharepoint vs Drupal Commons
At Mediacurrent we often get requests to compare Drupal to other platforms used for intranet sites and social business platforms (like https://dev.twitter.com/ for example). This is often referred to as “Social Business Software”, which has grown in popularity in recent years. I decided to do a…
