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

"Drupal 8 has an architecture that will scale well and better than previous versions, especially given big pipe."
"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."
"It is good for big projects."
"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."
"We use a part of the solution called Acquia, and the personalization portion of this is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Its scalability, content management practices, security and the community are valuable features."
"The site was built on Drupal in three hours."
"The best things about Drupal are its extensibility and plug-ability."
"It's a very simple software that's very easy to understand."
"Microsoft Teams can facilitate the broadcast of information and distribution of tasks through a single platform."
"The integration of online jobs and documents is one of the most valuable aspects of the solution. The ability to integrate tasks and to assign tasks to certain people is great."
"The solution is easy to use and helps me to communicate with my students."
"This solution is great for ad hoc video conferencing. It's so easy to start a meeting."
"Microsoft Teams adds value for businesses by providing functionality that includes co-authoring on work documents, publishing Power BI sites for reporting and billing, and integrating calendaring."
"Microsoft Teams is a communication platform that enables one-on-one communication as well as group communication, and it is convenient with recordings and AI tools such as automatic transcripts."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can be included in most systems...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"I think Drupal has to improve the UX for some administrative pages, such as the modules list page."
"If you have a high traffic site and speed is important, to optimize Drupal you will probably need an expert."
"Drupal 8 is only 1.5 years old. It has stability issues, but not major ones."
"It needs a shorter learning curve."
"The initial setup was very complex, due to the lack of proper documentation."
"There were some stability issues, i.e., only with the new version, the main changes are not stable."
"It is a little bit simplified."
"The technical support is below average as compared to all the other products."
"There are some issues with stability."
"Sometimes, extracting the older version of a file takes a few minutes."
"I think they can improve all those segments for channel bulking."
"Microsoft Teams can start being more interactive and intuitive by implementing artificial intelligence and machine learning."
"People might think it is too complicated or that it looks too complicated at the beginning."
"The mobile application needs improvement. There are a lot of features on the web and desktop versions that aren't implemented yet on mobile."
"They could enhance the product's stability and integration features."
"I have faced issues with connection. Maybe, it's an issue from my side. The company accounts in Teams has some issues as well. I could not establish calls with certain domains, and then the product asked me to buy a professional account. The problem with Teams is that they are split between professional or company accounts and personal accounts. It's not very clear how you can go from one to another. That's the main issue with teams."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would like to see better pricing."
"We need to pay for Microsoft Teams' licenses on a yearly basis."
"The product is expensive, and I rate its pricing a ten out of ten."
"Microsoft Teams' pricing is fine."
"I rate the pricing as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"It is expensive."
"Microsoft Teams comes with a yearly subscription, which is not very expensive."
"Microsoft Teams is a cheap solution."
"It is a bit more than moderately expensive."
