Very easy to use and intuitive. Making edits to the website is a breeze and it's very interactive with the website's functionalities.

Can also be paired with sister sites and it easily and accurately connects related content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Silverstripe CMS:

Test it out, the user interface is certainly easy to adjust to, but make sure any web page content, including it's SEO traffic history can be carried over from the previous CMS. Once we switched, Google considered it a new website and we lost all our SEO history. We had to rebuild our traffic numbers from scratch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
