Very good platform and affordable price

I like that you can upload files for my clients to use as images without having access or knowing how they are created, which is great because now there's no need for me to know things such as photoshop etc so i don't have time wasting tasks with them! There isn’t much dislike about it but perhaps more features would be nice? That being said this product does what its suppose too do very well especially when set up properly (like mine was). My website has come along way since implementing…

Pros
  • I like how it's easy to use and very easy to set up, and it's very fast for all the things we do with it
Cons
  • I do not like how it's not easy to do something the way you want it, it's very easy to do something the

The best content management platform for our team!

The ability to create custom templates that can be edited by anyone in my team is what I love best about EE! It allows me to easily build out pages for clients without having to hire expensive developers or graphic artists. Also, the fact you do not need PHP knowledge is great too. Some things are confusing at first but once you understand it's pretty easy. I wish there was an easier way to make changes/add new content so I didn't have to log into the backend each time. Sometimes I forget which

Pros
  • Easy layout
  • SEO friendly code base (SEO) & HTML5 compliance.
  • Supports mobile devices like iPhone,
  • Content management system allowing nontechnical people access CMS via simple interface
Cons
  • Not the best

ExpressionEngine - Great way organize your content

The best part is that it's very easy to use, you can add more features as you need them. You can easily create new pages, galleries, videos, etc. It also has some great SEO tools embedded in it. I do not like the fact that sometimes there are errors with the code or other times when adding something new it does not work at all. This happens if you don't know how to properly install/setup the template. If you are looking for a simple CMS then this is perfect! The ability to keep track of…

A little complicated in terms if learning curve

I like that it's easy to create custom templates, and then customize them by adding modules. It is not intuitive at all. I can not figure out how to add modules at all. My clients are very picky about aesthetics, so I'm constantly having to change things. There are other CMSs that are more user friendly and have tutorials that walk you through creating things. If you want a simple solution for your small business, this is probably what you're looking for. We needed something that was quick to…

Pros
  • The support staff is very nice and very responsive
Cons
  • No tutorials or quick start guides
