"Sitefinity: a Robust CMS with excellent UX"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

Flexibility, ubiquitous, and many great out-of-the-box tools to build from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

WYSIWYG is not always WYSIWYG. Version upgrading has been complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Sitefinity:

Make sure you have a great back-end developer on staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Sitefinity solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were able to redesign an online presence for the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine that had the flexibility to represent a very diverse community. With two hospitals and a robust research community, along with one of the nation's top veterinary schools, and a member of the University of Pennsylvania campus, we needed to be able to diversify our content, all the while keeping a strong and integrated brand identity. We have been able to do that with Sitefinity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible templates and tools make it easy to customize and edit"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

There are plenty of pre-built widgets for all kinds of content including news, blog, social media, general content, and more. The templates are easy to work with and Sitefinity also options a number of connections to platform such as HubSpot and Marketo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Drag and drop features can be buggy when trying to place widgets and content into pages. Also, sometimes the styling can interfere with adding content because it renders front-end code on the backend making it difficult to place/edit content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Overall, my time with Sitefinity was good."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

I enjoy making adjustments to web pages in real-time and paying close attention to the placement of elements on the website. Progress's technical support staff is accountable and works diligently to resolve issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

It is difficult to pinpoint a flaw, although the procedure of updating to newer versions may be one. I believe the manual may use some further details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sitefinity Feedback from DART"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

I am very pleased with the product roadmap of this product and their customer support. We are currently testing .net core support since beta version of Sitefinity and their developer has been helping throughout this process. Their response time and time to resolve our development issues for this has been extraordinary. We have scheduled a monthly check-in for our adoption of their new release and allowed us to talk to their dev's directly when we need help. This gives us confidence to use their latest releases as soon as they come in so that we can benefit from them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

They need to change the whole stack to .net core for more performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very Solid not Spectacular"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

It is pretty straightforward to use. It has a good permission approval process that has allowed me to open up content creation to a bigger group than I normally would. We used WordPress and the learning curve wasn't that bad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Some of the little editing things like increasing padding or margins is harder than other CMS page builders. Would be nice to be able to do it while editing. Also cant use webp images. It would be nice if they invested in some real solid tutorial videos. The available ones were average at best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Sitefinity:

No CMS is great and tis one is pretty good. That is a solid recommendation from a tough reviewer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Sitefinity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our CIO really wanted us to get off WordPress so that is about it. We are off WordPress so I guess that benefit is realized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great product moving in the right direction"

5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

I like best the page editor, the permissions model, and the ability to organize assets like images and documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Upgrades can be troublesome and end-user features are getting lost in the transition from web forms to MVC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Sitefinity:

Make sure your implementer, or your internal team, follows standard procedures and best-practices. Otherwise you could end up with something that works today but becomes very difficult to upgrade and maintain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Sitefinity solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Sitefinity to build complex websites, usually with protected (member only) content, elaborate search features, and user-friendly designs. Sitefinity lets our developers work effectively and our client editors manage their content smoothly.

Sitefinity has a robust permissions feature that lets editors restrict content to users having certain roles. This applies to both the back-end editor experience and the front-end access experience. It applies to all types of content - pages or groups of pages, post-type content like news or blogs, and documents like PDFs.

The makers of Sitefinity have introduced in recent years enhancements to the personalization features so that editors can personalize the experience of their visitors based on a variety of factors.

The ability to manage and organize document assets like PDFs in different document libraries is a particular strength of Sitefinity over other popular CMS's like WordPress.

The drag-and-drop page editor experience can't be beat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

The content management system is similar to many other programs making it fairly easy to use. The customized pieces also make our site better for our uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Some areas require use of minimal html. It would also be helpful to be able to size images to specific sizes within the content sections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
