"Extensible and Flexible CMS. Great Support."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

Administrators and web developers can create prebuilt styles and widgets allowing non-technical content creators to build consistent web sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

The only downside we've encountered at this point is that out of the box, creating more complex layouts can require knowledge of some CSS and Bootstrap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sitefinity Review"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

I like that Sitefinity is .NET based, and our team can program against the CMS. Make is possible to customize widgets instead of buy them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Lack of programing support videos and how-to documents. Would like more documentation on feather code, like, a lot more. Thanks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Sitefinity:

The support team for Sitefinity is amazing. They truly help you out when you need it. If you are a .net shop, this CMS will make you very happy. You can work with the native Sitefinity database, and program against it. Definitely check it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sitefinity is a fairly capable toolset but lacks an ecosystem of developers selling functionality"

3/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

Dashboard view of items that have been submitted for easy review and approval. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Not searchable Content types (except for Images) with items stored in individual Areas make it very difficult to locate a content item when a text change is required later on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Sitefinity:

Consider carefully how much of your website business needs can be supported by Sitefinity out of the box. The system seems fairly customizable but if your role focuses on implementation and day-to-day use you may find frequent scenarios where custom functionality is needed which interrupt, and delays productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The system enables the management of our web content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A very powerful content management system"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

There are many things I love about Sitefinity. A few amongst them are A/B testing, ease of content editing, new UI, granular user roles, and permissions. I also liked how they developed the digital experience cloud over the past few years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Frequent product updates which are not thoroughly tested by their product team and ship the product with defects that break the running environment. A few times we faced issues with the Sync module used to sync content from the lower environment to Production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We built a lot of multilingual high-performance websites for our consumers where they can collaborate, engage and seek all the information they need. We want to use the same code base for all the sites from a manageability perspective. We are able to achieve that with Sitefinity. The two main benefits which I see is low cost to achieve the ask as well as simple manageability of sites & code for our operations team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Learn and Operate"

4.5/5

Very intuitive for the user to edit pages and use custom code, it was fairly quick to pick up as a new user, doesn't require much onboarding effort. Right on par in terms of editing with a WYSIWYG platform like Wix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

At times, editing can be a bit structured and not allow for custom content as easily. There are ways to work around this, just requires a bit more time investment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A powerful CMS for all your Digital Experience needs."

4/5

Plenty of 'out of the box' features are included. Great integrations with external platforms, with the flexibility to customize any solution you can imagine. From quick and simple web solutions, to complex sites with digital marketing integrations, Sitefinity has it all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Customizing the back office for a friendly editor experience can be a challenge, it currently utilizes some inflexible angularjs scripting components along with no easy way to add repeatable components to widget editors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that you had to pay for every single update. it became overwhelming for my company and we ended up being behind over 20 versions, making the platform basically useless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Implementation was easy, keeping up with the upgrades was not worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
