Simple and easy to use, the different branches make it easy to organise folders to make it quicker to navigate around the site. Easy to push pages live, great to be able to see them in a queue before you actually push them in the workflow. Great template for building pages with being able to just drag and drop components right on to it. Saves a lot of time being able to do this as you aren't messing around having to locate the right files. Easy to navigate as well, everything is where you'd normally expect it, easily laid out, user friendly and does what you need it to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenText Web CMS? Think it could look a lot more modern, for a bigger company like HP, it would look better to keep it a bit more modern. I think it looks quite outdated especially when companies are having to look at it for large periods of time in the day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenText Web CMS: Really good product to be using to manage pages. Easy and simple to use, would definitely recommend it to save time if you are working on big scale projects. If you want an easy to use system to use then i'd definitely go for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenText Web CMS solving and how is that benefiting you? pushing pages live for a company, editing and developing pages through teamsite to end up with the page in run time. Simplifying and ensuring things are done quickly in an effective and quick manor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Content Coordinator Marketing and Advertising Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 6/15/2015 "HP TeamSite Review" 4/5 What do you like best about OpenText Web CMS? It has many features that allow any enterprise business to securely update their website. There are a lot of functions that can be set up within this platform to accommodate large scale requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenText Web CMS? If not set up properly, this program can be very glitchy. I have been using the program for two years now and I have seen my fare share of issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenText Web CMS: TeamSite is a program that should only be used for enterprise businesses that have backend developers in place to update the constant demand for change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenText Web CMS solving and how is that benefiting you? I use this program to with one of the largest global consumer electronics brands in the country to distribute our e-commerce products, but we are looking to increase our use of design within the CMS platform. We are also looking for a program that will allow an easy transfer of data, which TeamSite lacks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Senior Interwoven Engineer Airlines/Aviation Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 12/18/2014 "TeamSite/OpenDeploy 7.3.2" 3.5/5 What do you like best about OpenText Web CMS? OpenDeploy is the best product they have - it is easy to use and just works. The error logging is decent - sometimes you have to search different logs to find the source of a problem, but it's usually something that makes sense when something fails. TeamSite is still the best off the shelf WCM product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenText Web CMS? The product documentation is horrible. It's not easy to configure any of the products. Some of the core functions haven't changed since the earliest versions of the product. It's very difficult to create customized workflows. Support is sketchy - how helpful it is usually depends on whether you get an onshore support engineer (better help) or an offshore support engineer (less helpful). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenText Web CMS: The trend is to go with open source, and if you can find open source products that fit your needs and you have the time and expertise to configure it to your needs, then that may be a good path. However, if you need an off the shelf, established and fully supported product, TeamSite is probably your best bet. It is costly to install and maintain, but it is still an industry leader and it works well for what it does. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenText Web CMS solving and how is that benefiting you? We are templatizing several web fragments for Marketing to use to make it easy to update a significant amount of web content on our public facing website. They can make immediate site updates or schedule updates out in the future - it makes life much easier for our Marketing users. Having a consistent platform to version and update web content has allowed the application development and Marketing teams to focus on other aspects of the site. We can track content updates for the last several years for auditing purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Vice President - Senior Technical Consultant Financial Services Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 12/16/2014 "TeamSite is a powerful framework not a ready-to-use OOTB product" 4/5 What do you like best about OpenText Web CMS? TeamSite is a customizable framework of applications that covers the complete publication cycle from content contribution, publication workflows and presentation. Each step in the process can be customized to meet your needs. It is very powerful and capable of handling even the largest of websites (size and throughput). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenText Web CMS? It is difficult, at times, to work with. The TeamSite suite of products is not something you can install over the weekend and have a site up on Monday. Because it is so powerful there are a lot of pieces and parts to be setup/configured to give you the results you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenText Web CMS: Engage with HP or an HP Partner to plan your installation and the actual installation itself. Do not attempt to this up yourself. Sizing, as with any vended product, is important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenText Web CMS solving and how is that benefiting you? with TeamSite and the other products in the TeamSite suite we allow our business partners more control over their content while maintaining consistency in the look/feel of our sites.

"TeamSite and LiveSite review" 4/5 What do you like best about OpenText Web CMS? Highly customisable and scalable. Can do pretty much anything you'd want due to its tool kit nature if you know what you are doing. Versioning, workflow and deployments and very strong Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenText Web CMS? Software installs as generally more difficult than they should be. Old version of TinyMCE used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenText Web CMS: The software is highly customisable and there are generally several ways of doing any one particular thing. This makes for highly varied implementations, some good and some bad. One of the biggest mistakes companies make after buying TeamSite with or without LiveSite is hiring people without the correct experience resulting in the software getting a bad name and semi successful projects. It is also important to note that there is a significant jump between 6.x and 7.x of TeamSite and if your are implementing LiveSite check the people building the solution know how to implement TeamSite AND LiveSite. Smaller, niche consultancies are generally much better than your household names. If the consultants start talking about Perl run for the hills everything should be done in Java these days. Also if you are using LiveSite go with Java over .Net unless you really have to. There are very few .Net implementations out there and you'll struggle to find the people who know how to implement it properly. Also if you are doing a site redesign engage the LiveSite developers early on so the HTML designers can work with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenText Web CMS solving and how is that benefiting you? Most of my projects are enterprise scale WCM implementations that generally last up to a year. These tend to include the management of multiple sites by 100s of authors doing 100s of changes and deployments a day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Really powerful customisation capabilities, both in terms of what you present to the front end but also in terms of the abilities to customise the editing interface, custom preview page types, custom forms editing using FormAPI, making it easier to craft solutions that match business processes rather than processes having to adapt to the CMS tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenText Web CMS? At the time I used it, there was limited support for full integration of multi-variant testing and other personalisation features that other tools perhaps had already adopted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenText Web CMS: Carefully appraise the variety of .net solutions (EPiServer and SiteCore being the main players) to ensure that Teamsite is definitely the right tool, I feel it has perhaps fallen a bit behind in the last few years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenText Web CMS solving and how is that benefiting you? I was able to deliver very bespoke solutions to a variety of business CMS needs, working within and alongside their existing offline processes, presenting them custom front end editing screens that guided and helped them through complex tasks and made easy ones as efficient and quick as possible.
