"Si no estás usando HubSpot, estás tardando en hacerlo.: La facilidad con la que se pueden crear páginas de destino sobre la marcha mediante la creación de plantillas estándar. El software permite la clonación de páginas de destino, formularios, CTA, correos electrónicos, etc. ahorrando tiempo y mejorando la eficiencia. Solo su contenido debe estar listo, lo que puede actualizarse fácilmente en el elemento clonado.
Además, la programación de publicaciones en las redes sociales mediante el módulo social ahorra mi esfuerzo manual de publicación todos los días. Ahora, solo programo todos los mensajes de una semana y dejo todo a Hubspot.
En resumen, HubSpot es una plataforma de CRM inteligente, simple y fácil."

"Great experience with Drupal for last few years: It's a good CMS for Web content management. The most we like about is that Drupal is Open source thus it has big community that wecan ask if we have any question(and we had many). It's easy to work with. Don't need great skills to achieve the job. The latest version also fix many issues that were related with the styling. "

"Love the widgets and module builder tools: I love the widgets and module builder tools as it allows me to quickly and easily build new pages without having to pay our digital agency to do so. And withe the handy widgets I can use infinite versions of similar templates to make as many different pages as I need."

"The Best Option for Drupal hosting, hands down: Pantheon's automation is the best. Pantheon's dashboards and the isolation between dev, test, and production environments let us stage changes for public, client review. Then, once the client approves the changes, it's only one click to deploy. It's also one-click for most Drupal core upgrades.
Pantheon is also high performance -- they somehow handle varnish caching automatically without getting in my way."

"Nice tool, very useful!!: One of the things I like most about Adobe Experience Manager and what makes it different from other tools on the market is that, despite the sophistication of the product, the components are easy to add and configure especially if you already use Java technology. In addition to having unique features that promote better performance in its users."

"Why Mura just works: So many CMSs and web based requirements are already baked into Mura. It is a strong CMS base that has endless possibilities. I have yet to say, "Mura can't do that." Though it has a base in ColdFusion, it can be completely used without any CFML. It has a strong API that allows you to use Mura anyway you want!"

"We use the Ingeniux CMS for everything...: I've worked with a lot of different content management systems in the past and Ingeniux is by far the better one. Not only does it allow us to manage our content in a meaningful and reliable manner but it has helped us to build an amazing website that can consume the content as well as the Ingeniux CMS api without a huge fuss. Ingeniux is heavily integrated within our .net mvc website and has allowed us to deploy code in a quick manner when we needed it the most. Having dealt with several that have taken many days to install on our servers, Ingeniux was quickly installed with an easy wizard as a guide.
Another amazing feature about Ingeniux is their customer support, they are amazingly quick at responding to your issues and very knowledgeable about their product. They will do what ever it takes to fix your issue withing the least amount of time as possible.
We've also uitilized the API part of Ingeniux without the actual use of the CMS UI, which has been very valuable for certain scenarios we need our websites to do."

"Great all-around CMS for Enterprices: The ease of use and the out-of-the-box feature set distinguishes Kentico from other CMS solutions. A great set of functionalities are available without the use of coding. They can be added on templates and can provide a rich set of features on pages/templates. "

"With proper implementation, this CMS is friendly to Designers, Developers, and Editors.: On the design and development side, this stable enterprise-level platform can support just about anything you can dream up. Though there are many features out of the box, where this product shines for us is how easy it has been to develop new features for our visitors. We have successfully integrated third-party SAAS such as our social media aggregator as well as various in-house applications. Episerver plays nice with others.
On the editor side, the interface is intuitive and well organized. We have a wide range of technical abilities within our editor pool and still receive positive feedback from them about their experience. Some have even uttered the words "fun to use" -- *gasp!*
Episerver as a company has been fantastic. They are responsive to our needs and have been proactive about new features and support. The CMS is one in a suite of offerings. Since they have taken the time to understand us as a customer, they know which mix of products best fit our needs and have not tried to sell us something we don't need."

"Great flexibility and value, odd at first: Model creation with the available wide variety of field types is great.
The basic Markdown text field editor covers lots of use cases.
Resizing images by just adding optional query parameters to the URL is magic.
The content model is very flexible."

"Make Your Dreams Come True With Agility CMS: I love about agility that it has everything you need to make your website work, its panel has good functionalities that help you build easily whatever you need. It also let's you make a page not public without having to lose its content, and the staging links are such an awesome way to wait for clients approval. File management is super easy and helpful as a hosting/uploading tool local to our web pages. And the clone option for full pages or just modules really makes doing repetitive work like product pages faster."

"Simple, but powerfull tool: It is super easy to get started. KC has transparent user experience and clear interface. Each time I contacted tech support, I got fast and helpful answers. And we never experienced problems with the performance and availability of APIs. All the main questions are answered in documentation and there are lots of custom tools and SDKs for keeping the development process smooth."

"Transformative Experience: 1) The ease with which I can make a custom type. I was previously making modules using Christoc, which was fine, but now I specify a content type and make it instantly in the cloud.
2) This is a truly headless CMS, though using it as such takes a bit of setup. By making API calls, I will be able to skip making visualizers and keep my content completely separate from having to make pages.
3) For when I do need to make pages, the visualizers are a nifty way of showing this content - they are using the Shopify Liquid Content templating system which is a fully featured (if at times slightly odd) templating engine.
4) The DNN support is amazing, so different from other CMS' I have used in the past. I have bothered these poor people with so many questions and they have always been great.

"An extremely flexible platform with an excellent SDK and surrounding community: I have been working on the Liferay platform as a Java developer for several years now both in my full time job and as an open source contributor. I like Liferay above all other platforms because of it's flexibility and extensible. Liferay has done a great job providing a solid platform (complete with a strong SDK surrounding users, account management, social integration API's, communication API's, etc) while not restricting the developer or owner in any way..
