What do you like best about OpenCms?

Setting up OpenCMS was quite simple. Most of the time it went smoothly, without any bigger issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenCms?

Deploying custom packages into OpenCMS was really annoying. We had to do that manually or writing our own plugins for deployment. Maybe something changed in newer versions, but a few years ago it was the biggest problem. Also, the lack of documentation for some features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
