complex to use it and support for community Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest upside to OU Campus is their IT department. Every time I call they have an answer and will fix my problem immediately. They are intelligent and know what they are doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like how little of power I have to change my website. The IT department is nice, but I wish I didn't have to call them every time to add a page to my Left Nav. Also, formatting is a nightmare. I don't even know where to begin. It makes me shiver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the OU Campus tool because it is a good website and it is pretty easy to use. It is simple and user friendly. There are many different features you can use to customize the website you are trying to build. It is also easy to use with multiple departments. I also like that I can update information as necessary to the websites I am managing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dont like about the OU Campus tool is the check in feature. I dont like that it doesnt automatically check someone out of a website when they have not been using it for a while. I also dont like that when you put in certain characters into the OU campus website, it will create issues for your website and you are unable to publish certain material. While there already are many features to customize your website, I think it would be good if there was more options for customization. I also was able to do hyperlinks easier than i was before. A system update may have changed that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Dynamic Linking" - A great feature... It saves us lots of time and hassle when we conduct a site redesign. PLUS, the idea of staging server where we can preview changes in an interactive environment before publish ing live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The source code editor leave much to be desired. EX: When a tag is selected ALL instances of that tag "highlight" instead of only the closing tag for that element. It would be GREAT if OU could employ the Brackets API as it's built-in code editor: http://brackets.io/. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the idea of giving non-technical users access to make small edits when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This system has a lot of quirks and bugs. Assigning permissions on the server administrator side needs improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The relative ease to communicating with students, via plain text, practice problems or uploaded video mini-lectures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can see where there would be limitations to implementation with graduate students teaching the same course and assignment of the admin privileges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software was designed specifically for higher education clientele, which made managing webpages within this setting more straight-forward. The features and modules were suited for editing webpages for my previous university setting. It is also nice that it is accessible through the Cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although some of its feature make webpage management easier, there is still room for improvement in making use of the software more user-friendly. Granted, customer service is helpful in this regard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

OmniUpdate is simple and works much like a word processor. From a content manager's perspective, minimal web knowledge is actually needed. Having used this now daily for 3 years, I have hardly ever experienced any lagging or major issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unfortunately, OU's customer service needs much improvement. Submitting an issue to them is almost useless. In my experience, they never follow up or address any issues that have been submitted. There are a few minor quirks in the CMS that are very frustrating and are probably very simple fixes on their end if they actually cared. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
