I like the ability of the Liferay Digital Experience Platform to unify the digital experience by combining content, system integration, and service delivery in a single environment. The platform facilitates the reduction of operational complexity thanks to its ability to integrate APIs and systems, functioning as an orchestrator and reducing the need for multiple isolated interfaces. This also helps in building unified digital services, even leading to cost reduction in some cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although Liferay is a robust and strategic solution, it still lacks skilled and highly capable personnel due to the complexity of the platform. It needs specialists both in development and operation, significantly burdening with the learning curve. The human factor is expensive today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Liferay is one of the most popular DXP platforms. It’s user-friendly, and right out of the box it provides many features. Its low-code/no-code capabilities make it simple and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When Liferay releases a new version, I’ve noticed it sometimes comes with bugs, and later Liferay provides a hotfix for the same issues. In front of the client, this doesn’t look good and can create a bad impression. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I highlight the ease of design, the integration with other products, and the ability to contribute content from different profiles with varying levels of permissions. Additionally, the support offered to the user community, both by Liferay Spain and the company's partners, seems to me a very positive added value of the product. The recent integrations of AI services also add a plus to the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adjusting the level of detail of permissions is sometimes cumbersome, although I am aware that work is being done to improve these functionalities and others such as inheritance management at different page levels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use the Liferay Digital Experience Platform to develop web systems for the enterprise I work for. I like the way Liferay DXP offers scalability, organization, simplicity, and robust tools to develop a solution. The robust tools make development so much easier and organized. The initial setup is simple, thanks to Liferay's documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the Liferay DXP can be more flexible with something, like the development with fragments can use service locator or more Java methods that is only disponibilizated on Freemarker Templates. Also, when I am creating a fragment, but I need the URL of a content that is coming from the collection provider, there is no way to get the URL content of the item, just in templates.

The platform is the most robust I’ve used throughout my career as a digital channel architect. It allows me to streamline the development of multi-area systems while efficiently managing both technical and content teams at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t have any negative points about the platform, as it is well aligned with the goal of meeting the needs of digital channels.
