I really like the speed of the upload process for Idev CMS and also the lack of downtime/crashes they have as a website. The content library is easy to use and the CMS is fairly easy to navigate through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The system does not take changes as fast as it should, and if someone else is on the editing page it will become very difficult to publish what you want to. It also is not user friendly for those who do not have a strong knowledge of web design/html/css. The turnaround for the ticketing system time is also ungodly slow. I would not recommend this to a small company either since American Eagle has much larger clients that they deal with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how you can manage the content on a page. It makes for organizing events easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are some redundant tabs and that can get frustrating when trying to do things on a deadline Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use and intuitive. Very short learning curve, and that comes from a non-IT guy.
I have used / tried to use a number of different CMS systems and by far the CMS AmericanEagle.com offers is the easiest and most effective system I have found. Next to their people, their CMS is the greatest asset for our web site.
After using the AmericanEagle.com CMS I dont want to use any other system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not much. Maybe change the colors of the background, but that is a small point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is a full featured platform that is simple to learn and easy to manage. The integration with Hawk Search and idev Broadcast email is convenient and proves to be a powerful marketing tool. The ability to quickly create or edit content saves us time and money. Integration with our external inventory system gives our customer a real time window into product availability.

The WYSIWYG content plugin could be a bit more user friendly however with a little practice and some basic HTML code knowledge our content team has it down pat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We find idev extremely intuitive.
My company tried so many CMS systems before moving over to American Eagle and so glad we switched. The real asset is the customer service support. My group can be difficult to train but AE had us up and running in record time.

Honestly we had so many problems with other systems we having nothing to complain about with idev. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The idev CMS provides a powerful platform for beginning or advanced site managers. It also allows for easy content sign-off. It is flexible enough to create custom content and is one of the few CMS I have seen that allows robust form/database integration. The tools provided make it easy to edit almost any part of your website and to manage contests. polls and lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing that I dislike. All of the features that I would expect are present as well as a few unexpected features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We are working with IDEV cms and Americaneagle INC, and our experience its perfect. They support is seven days a week, with fast and efficient responses to our inquires. We definetly recommend the implementation. Estudio Iacona uses this software and we are really proud to work with Americaneagle web web design and ecommerce solution. Tony and Mike Svanascini are excelent professionals, improving day by day their work. Its a pleassure to do business with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

American Eagle offers a flexible, comprehensive approach to web content management. The widgets are catered to your company's individual needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We've not run into any major limitations. If we are not able to do something American Eagle is just a phone call away for help solving our issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The history-restore feature is actually quite useful when dealing with large scale content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
lack of widgets
lack of customization
lack of extensions or plug-ins
can't even ftp into own server
jquery or javascript not allowed on content pages
navigation module is poorly designed
too many modules and widgets that didn't actually do anything
lack of attentiveness to UX on the backend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
americaneagle.com's idev platform offers great flexibility. it is an out of the box solution so you aren't bound to countless customization changes but you have the flexibility where you need and want it. i have used idev for several years and appreciate the upgrades that americaneagle.com provides. evolution is constant and you want a solution that can evolve as you need it. better than the tech, and it is solid and proven, the company behind it all is committed to providing the best solutions to meet your needs.

i'm in the process of upgrading to the newest version of the idev platform and i guess my gripe is that i didn't have to go through my own red tape to get the new system in place. as is the case with any technology, i want the newest thing now. waiting a couple of months, given the size and scope of what we are doing, isn't bad but wouldn't it be great if i could get it today?

AE programmers can do what ever you ask them to do, they make all customizations possible. The design and usability is awesome. The speed of the site is OK. The CMS is strong and reliable. AE emplopyees are friendly and are always willing to help you sell more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They need more technology for SEO and the admin is a bit slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It did the job! It did indeed publish content and allow us to host a site. Very basic, however. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lack of customization; we were very limited to what we could do, and when it came time to redesign our site and make it more nimble, AE did not have any of the capabilities needed (like separate links for articles on a sub-section of our website so we could share them on social media).

Probably the navigation, although that's a stretch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The system doesn't allow you to do much with creativity. Photos, charts, slideshows are practically non-existent, and different fonts are beyond the question. It is not SEO friendly and overall needs a lot of improvement in order to stand out in a crowded CMS space. The layout is very difficult to update as well. Did I mention it is not free either?
