"Flexible, User Friendly, and Developer Friendly"
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

User-friendly for user

Modern PHP Development

Very flexible in what can be developed using the framework - from blocks for an editor to quickly add content to full-fledged custom online applications

Excellent community members and core team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

Smaller community - could use more items in the marketplace for those who are not able to custom develop some functionality Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"all in one package which has been in development for over a decade"
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

Ease of use for content creators. It is an excellent framework for creating almost any website/application for developers. You can tell that the developers have a clear vision for their CMS, and while they did adapt to a changing internet, they stuck to their original vision when creating their CMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

Documentation is sometimes vague, and when you run into an issue, you feel at a loss; the dev team is very active on their forum and Github, which makes it possible to ask questions almost directly. Not perfect, but it does seem like they are actively trying to fix this Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for site editors. Great for developers."
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

Concrete CMS is easy for users/editors to learn. They catch on to the concept editing and arranging blocks and are soon racing ahead with very little need for support. Concrete is also a great basis for extension. The curated marketplace of free and paid addons and themes provides a reliable source for extending the core. As a developer, learning the basic principles of custom templates and blocks is simple and your skills can grow incrementally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

Like many open source projects, documentation lags behind the code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The only CMS you need. It also happens to be the best."

Working with concrete-cms for the last 12 years made me appreciate this CMS the most of all of the popular ones out there. In page editing and easy management of files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

There is nothing I dislike about it. It is a perfect solution for small and large businesses! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very flexible CMS, was limited by the agency managing it for us"
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

Concrete5 being open source is a great asset for finding integrations that others already created for your website. Everything we wanted to do with our website we were able to, either by custom programming or integrations from the marketplace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

We had an agency managing our overall Concrete5 account and this limited us in what we were able to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The CMS you should be using."
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

Concrete has a terrific back-end interface and is incredibly flexible. With much of what you need built-in, it is strong right out of the box. Also, my clients love how intuitive it is to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

The community, while extremely helpful, is smaller than it should be. Let's fix that! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"In short, the best CMS out there!"
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

The only CMS that I am confident to hand over to my clients to maintain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

I suppose my only niggle would be the limited number of add ons available in the marketplace. This will surely improve as Concrete's profile increases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Concrete CMS is what you really need for your website, it's simply the best"
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

As user: ease of use for designing frontend and backend, graphical editing interface, powerful functionality and lots of features already built in incl. mobile, it's free, it's open source, based on modern technology, attention to security and permissions, excellent SEO features and tools built in, excellent file manager, multi-language support

As developer: MVC architecture and it's the best among other CMS, Doctrine implementation, ease of developing for frontend and backend, ease of theme development with PHP and without extra engines, excellent separation for pages/blocks/packages/API and between frontend pages, admin Dashboard and user Account, the best and simplest functionality for package/addon/plugin development and overriding the core functionality of pages, blocks, well nearly everything Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

Development documentation needs attention and cover all functionality and API, development support is lacking, really hard to get help for some uncommon or undocumented issues Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great CMS for 80% of websites on the web. "
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

Concrete5 easy of use for the end user is it clam to fame. Very easy on page editing and can build out more complex pages using custom attributes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

From a development stand point, concrete5 can be hard to use for 3 or more developers on a project. S There is no syncing process between local development environments and remote environments this can cause issues on large projects. Also scaling the CMS for very large project (250+ plus pages) might be an issue however, that is more of dev-op issue then a CMS problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I've tried them all. concrete CMS is by far the best."
What do you like best about Concrete CMS?

Content editors love the interface. Modern PHP7+ OOP codebase, with the best from Symphony, Laravel, Zend, etc.

All add-ons and themes are peer code reviewed (no wild-west take-your-chances like WP). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Concrete CMS?

Need more add-ons and themes in the marketplace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
