It significantly speeds up the process of putting together a simple website for a client, which makes our workflow much more efficient and streamlined. If the client wants custom features, we can easily add those for them as well. Overall, Umbraco is easy to use.
I've been using Umbraco for over two years now, and even before that, I watched my father work with it for five years — so it's been a platform I've trusted for a long time.
One of the things I appreciate most is how easy it is to design with and edit. The backend is clean and well-organized, and you can get to any element or piece of content quickly without unnecessary complexity. This has saved me a lot of time and effort in my day-to-day work, especially given the nature of the projects I handle.
I've used Umbraco to build more than 12 projects for large companies, and every time, it's proven flexible and capable of handling different requirements without major issues. That stability and flexibility is why I rely on it for almost all of my projects now.
Overall, I'd recommend it to anyone or any team looking for a strong, flexible, and easy-to-use content management system.
I like that it is free and open source, with a good supporting plugin base to expand its features. The support community is very helpful and engaging in answering simple questions about how to set things up to more complex questions, like how to debug a custom plugin or the code for customization.
