AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
  • Users report that Drupal excels in its flexibility and customization options, particularly with its robust Form Builder feature, allowing for complex forms tailored to specific needs, while Craft CMS is praised for its user-friendly interface and ease of use, making it ideal for small businesses.
  • Reviewers mention that Craft CMS offers superior Content Scheduling capabilities, enabling users to plan and automate their content releases effectively, whereas Drupal's scheduling features are seen as less intuitive and more cumbersome.
  • G2 users highlight that Drupal's SEO tools are more comprehensive, providing advanced options for optimizing content visibility, while Craft CMS users appreciate its straightforward approach but feel it lacks some of the depth found in Drupal's offerings.
  • Users on G2 indicate that Craft CMS has a more modern and visually appealing set of Pre-Built Templates, which can significantly speed up the design process, whereas Drupal's templates are often considered outdated and require more customization to achieve a polished look.
  • Reviewers say that Drupal's User, Role, and Access Management is highly sophisticated, allowing for detailed permissions and roles, which is essential for larger organizations, while Craft CMS provides simpler management that may not meet the needs of more complex user hierarchies.
