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

"But it is worth it if you require an enterprise level web platform with great scalability, support, and security."
"Use Drupal if expandability is a must or if you are building a large website with various kinds of functionality."
"Because of Drupal, we now have the ability to provide our customers with multilingual, multi-regional content to an extent that would not have been possible otherwise."
"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 CMS helped in the realization of content-rich web sites that combine article presentation with sophisticated, back-end admin functionality."
"At Appnovation Technologies we leverage Drupal’s out of the box features and functionality in order to speed up development and delivery time for our clients."
"Drupal’s extensible nature allows me to easily integrate with third-party hosted systems and pull or push data to those systems."
"We now have more time to focus on crucial features that our client needs, like custom mail notifications, statistics, or other features that can give our clients business value."
"It is a stable solution."
"We are using Teams to call people to set meetings, record meetings, share documents — all communication now goes through Teams."
"Since we started using it, our productivity has increased and we are very coordinated with each team member."
"It’s good to use it internally with colleagues."
"Microsoft Teams is bundled with Microsoft, so that's the number one valuable feature for me. It's easy to use."
"Teams' most valuable feature is the ability to choose from multiple numbers to show when calling."
"I think the collaborating feature is valuable."
"The platform has facilitated our communication and collaboration, especially in a remote or hybrid work environment."
 

Cons

"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."
"Unfortunately, with Drupal, there is a number of learning paradigms that you have to discover, which can make it difficult to understand as a newcomer."
"There are not enough Drupal developers to satisfy demand."
"The user experience in designing layouts should be much easier or much more helpful."
"We had stability issues. I have a lot of 'Out of memory' issues."
"For specific use cases, there are bugs with its DB Query UI tables (Drupal Views)."
"The documentation on how to do things as a complete novice is only subpar in both Drupal 7 and 8."
"SharePoint was more robust and customizable earlier."
"The call quality could be better sometimes."
"Screen sharing sometimes causes the solution to crash."
"Teams requires a stronger network for joining conversations and meetings."
"To Do tasks’ ease of use should be improved."
"Sometimes Avaya is required for Teams to work well on phones."
"We have experienced response delays with the product. It can be hard to understand where to click in the solution. Also, the solution should incorporate videos like 'How to use Teams' that can be popularized among customers."
"I don't like the online version of Word and Excel. It skews the layout. It is no longer representative of the layout that you actually have in a document. You always have to open it in the desktop application to get an accurate representation of how the document will look."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would like to see better pricing."
"There is a need to pay for the licensing... I know that the payments are made on a yearly basis...There are no extra costs in addition to the standard licensing."
"We get the solution on a corporate plan, where everything is included."
"It is a bit more than moderately expensive."
"I would rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
"The solution's pricing is average."
"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 product is expensive, and I rate its pricing a ten out of ten."
