"Complicated, Inconvenient, and Incompetent tool"

CMS Made Simple lacks features and customization options that experienced developers often require. The documentation is occasionally unhelpful the active forum assists.

"Great, customizable open-source, PHP/smarty CMS"
What do you like best about CMS Made Simple?

Installation is fast and easy. Easy to implement your own, custom PHP code into reusable User Defined Tags, nice features in the core distribution without a lot of extra nonsense. Plenty of available modules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CMS Made Simple?

Documentation assumes familiarity with CMS concepts and with Smarty PHP template engine and at times seems a little unhelpful. There is an active forum which helps, but sometimes troubleshooting can be difficult. The bundled MicroTiny text editor can be a pain to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"How to describe this software, well it's in the name!"
What do you like best about CMS Made Simple?

when using the software I found that being able to plug in almost any HTML/CSS design very useful in deed and in fact it made the whole process very simple. with the use of the support documents and community you can add a few lines of code, simple copy and paste to your site files change the structure as you have a header, footer and content section in your html it is pretty easy to transfer this to CMS Made Simple.

As you can separate these sections out which in my opinion makes it easy if issues appear with your site to narrow down if it is in any of those sections making design fixes a breeze or should I say "simple". I also love the plug in feature, you can choose from a host of free or paid plugins or community created ones to add to your site, so if you really want to add a blog, eCommerce or something more fancy you can with eases and the best bit you can keep complete control over the design.

I have used other well known cms or blog scripts but found them too bloated and slow requiring more work after design to have them work at the desired 3 secs site speed I would like a site to run below, when I discovered CMS Made Simple I used it on all projects and to this day i still do it has been an amazing find and would highly recommend it to anyone starting out in web design and needing a simple to use and reliable CMS.

What do you dislike about CMS Made Simple?

Well some would give a big list here but i to date have found no issues with the software and there is really nothing i could say against it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
