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.

Collaboration has transformed daily work and supports seamless global voice communication
Microsoft Teams could be improved, especially regarding contact center solutions which have a growing need for omnichannel capabilities, integrating with external platforms such as social media and email for a unified experience. Minor improvements might include reintroducing features such as GPU options available in classic Microsoft Teams to address issues in modern Microsoft Teams related to video meetings and content sharing. Furthermore, essential information such as who started or ended recordings should be more accessible in the Microsoft Teams admin center. I rate it a nine because Microsoft Teams occasionally experiences glitches in the client, leading to missing chat history or other transient issues. The performance issues with the desktop client and the support service complexities contribute to my rating being less than perfect. I have not identified any other improvements needed for Microsoft Teams.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"But it is worth it if you require an enterprise level web platform with great scalability, support, and security."
"Drupal’s extensible nature allows me to easily integrate with third-party hosted systems and pull or push data to those systems."
"Being a community based product, the relationship with the product itself is providing back to the community."
"We have built a production ready, heavy content website using this product within two to three months."
"Previously, I have used a variety of solutions, including the custom ones, and I switched solutions because Drupal provides all the features that I need."
"Use Drupal if expandability is a must or if you are building a large website with various kinds of functionality."
"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."
"The solution helps with collaborative communication. You can use it to chat and book calls. You can even set the status as away. It also has a transcript feature integrated."
"Microsoft Teams has positively impacted my organization by helping collaboration become easier and smooth, in the sense that you can put everyone in a Microsoft Teams group and share information instead of sharing it with individual users."
"The feature for video conferencing capability works efficiently for remote meetings."
"It's great for meeting conferences."
"It provides a collaborative space for efficient work processes."
"It is a stable solution."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Microsoft Teams is user-friendly and flexible. I like its SharePoint feature also."
 

Cons

"Since Drupal is not developed for any specific use cases, it has some learning curve and requires effort to learn."
"Migration from one major version to the next major version requires significant effort."
"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."
"Creating complex content types (involving translations), is still a very slow and painful process."
"There is need for better organization of the documentation on the drupal.org site."
"I think the support needs to improve, as well as the integration with tracking and analytics systems."
"If you have a high traffic site and speed is important, to optimize Drupal you will probably need an expert."
"There are not enough Drupal developers to satisfy demand."
"It's not as easy to augment your meetings as it is with competitors. For example, in Zoom, if I want to add attendees, I just grab the meeting link and post it to them. With Teams, how to do this is not as clear."
"The call quality could be better sometimes."
"The user interface could be improved, it's a bit tedious that you cannot move around within the solution without closing what you are in the middle of."
"The solution needs to be integrated with Microsoft Planner. I have also faced issues with stability in the first month."
"The product is not fully integrated in Brazil."
"The solution's user interface could be improved because it initially looked complex."
"The product should improve its security."
"Microsoft Teams' current features are not user-friendly, making it difficult for end-users to locate and understand them. There have also been issues with crashes, which is a concern in the current scenario."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would like to see better pricing."
"Its pricing is reasonable."
"If you have content that requires more security and you want to use it in a more secure manner, with more protection, then it will come at a higher cost."
"The solution is affordable."
"The pricing for Teams is very competitive."
"I use Teams' free version."
"Microsoft Teams is a cheap solution because it's included in the Microsoft 365 suite."
"In our experience, pricing may differ from country to country, with some regions offering more favorable rates due to local payment arrangements."
"The solution is part of enterprise Microsoft 365 licensing."
