"Solid Support System"

4/5

What do you like best about Solodev?

The support from Solodev is outstanding! Their team of dedicated professionals is highly responsive to emails and prompt to resolve issues. They listen to concerns and needs. I'm especially appreciative of their willingness to show corrective steps taken - so you can learn as you go along. They treat all levels of CMS knowledge with kindness, patience and respect. They also bring helpful ideas and solutions to the table. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solodev?

Navigation and layout isn't always intuitive and the site is not as user-friendly as WordPress. Solodev recently made upgrades - some good, some bad: Being able to drop and drag photos for uploading is a notable improvement as is the updated layout. Other features I frequently used and relied on were removed, for example the button for embedding a YouTube video - it now requires the video to be added through Source.

"Cool website, but would have issues with CMS"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Solodev?

I loved the layout of the website. I also thought the one-on-one training of the CMS was helpful. The staff got back to our concerns quickly. They are timely with responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solodev?

I felt that we did not receive the best customer service for the price that we paid. I also feel that there were issues with the CMS that made the back-end difficult to edit. While I loved the overall website design, I don't know if it was worth having to work-around the difficulties of the CMS. I felt like much custom coding was needed for simple functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Solodev:

I would agree that Solodev is timely with their projects. I have enjoyed working with members of their team. They have done a good job at training us how to use their CMS including bringing us to their corporate headquarters to learn the software. Sometimes their CMS feels clunky and I have trouble finding things, so it might not be good for beginners. It takes time to learn but its unique features make it worth it. I hope that eventually, they will fix bugs that are in their system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Solodev solving and how is that benefiting you?

Problems mostly deal with the CMS back-end. I do not like how you are unable to custom change URL. Solodev did not have the most intuitive back-end, because my co-worker and I had to find workarounds to change small things. We also would have trouble finding the location of files, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great CMS – and even greater service"

5/5

What do you like best about Solodev?

Solodev provides almost everything we need to run our website content strategy. It’s intuitive, easy to use, and we can train people on the platform really quickly. I love that my team can make updates without touching code or breaking things. We’re also able to manage users really effectively and review drafts before publishing. Finally, their service is awesome! I wasn’t expecting to get the kind of dedicated support that helps us solve problems quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solodev?

The online documentation is pretty solid but there are few articles that could use additional guidance. They have a built-in library of managers for adding features like a blog, but it helps to have a developer handy if you want to style things a specific way. Some integrations are easier than others, and a few require custom help. Good news is they offer support to do more advanced API work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Solodev:

If you’re looking for a platform that solves a lot of the problems and headaches of WordPress, then this is the closest you can get. Nothing is perfect, but if something breaks, you’re not alone in the woods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Solodev solving and how is that benefiting you?

I recently had to cancel a major event that was promoted on our website. I needed to rapidly update the content but my hands were full. Not only did Solodev’s support team take it on, but they made several recommendations to help improve the mobile experience. For me, the service is the key. Their people go the extra mile, so I’m really investing in peace of mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We love these kinds of reviews! Thank you for the amazing feedback and for offering some suggestions for improvement. Our engineers are listening – and we're always working to improve the core functionality and cloud service capabilities that we offer through AWS. The good news is that our integration and app library is growing, as is our API library – so stay tuned to what's coming in our new Marketplace. Good point the WordPress comparison: it's a great platform in many respects, but it doesn't have the quality assurance or support you need when the going gets tough. As always, feel free to reach out if you need anything at all!

"very good and efficient"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Solodev?

i like that i can communicate through email with them. whenever i have an issue or question they are always there and will always get back to me and not very many companies do that. we were also able to go to solodev offices and get a small training frmo them on how to upload recipes the right way and what to do and what not to do when it comes to pictures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solodev?

they sometimes take too long, i feel like noone on their team speaks spanish and at least a couple people should. another thing that is sometimes frustrating is that when something is requested such like a change or improvement, the turnaround time is a little long. the turnaround time could be a little faster that way we can all make changes qicker in the office Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Solodev:

I think that Solodev is going in the right direction. it is hard to communicate and have our spanish site be perfect beause when we implement thing i believe that a spanish speaker should review it on their end Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Solodev solving and how is that benefiting you?

right now we are working on getting the recipe area fixed and making sure all the recipes are updated to the new template. this means going over all of the recipes in english and in spanish and making sure everyone on the teams agrees. also the pictures need to be of high quality so that the website is up to date Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
