Magnolia comes with a ton of features like any other CMS tool in the market. The one thing that distinguishes this product from its competitors is the ability to develop custom features for enterprise grade applications. It is highly adaptable and can be leveraged with other frameworks quite easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a lesser documentation available on the internet for this tool. Also lots of time you will be doing custom development for which reference resources might be hard to find. Overall a good dedicated team to help you out with your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
