What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

I appreciate that the item utilizes a data set toward the back. I like how adjustable the item is. We can coordinate custom code into the Sitefinity project. This supports our capacity to incorporate web-based business parts, client assistance choices and content that is customized to every individual client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

A ton of what should be possible inside Sitefinity feels hard to find, this could be due to unfortunate documentation in regions. This makes taking on Sitefinity very troublesome. It isn't so much that Sitefinity is horrible here, yet it tends to be all in all an errand to track down the right answer for an issue, and frequently Sitefinity has something set up to guarantee you don't have to waste time, yet it would simply be great if that was simpler to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Sitefinity solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have great achievements while utilizing Sitefinity support administrations. The capacity to characterize granular jobs and authorizations, and characterize work process, as well as its many container highlights, permits it to be altered to meet different client needs. Consider cautiously the amount of your site business necessities that can be upheld by Sitefinity out of the case. The framework appears to be genuinely adjustable however assuming your job centers around execution and everyday use you might find successive situations where custom usefulness is required which intrudes, and postpones efficiency. Ensure your implementer, or your interior group keeps guideline methods and best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

If you need deeper programming or coding work done, you'll need addtional support in terms of staff or vendor to execute the project. I do wish there was a bit more support or training where this would be a thought. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

The overall editor experience is lovely, really easy to use and makes for a nice 'live-like' experience when changing content out. I would rate the usability of the back-end very highly if you're simply just editing pages and managing basic content outside of this, like media.

Sitefinity is also packed full of features, web services (API) built in, CRM, etc... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

A lot of what can be done within Sitefinity feels difficult to discover, this could be down to poor documentation in areas; while there are examples for some things there are not for others and the docs assume a lot of 'basic Sitefinity knowledge' which doesn't translate from other CMS solutions... This does make adopting Sitefinity quite difficult.

It's not that Sitefinity is terrible here, but it can be quite a chore to find the right solution to a problem, and often Sitefinity have something in place to ensure you do not need to reinvent the wheel, but it would just be nice if that was easier to discover. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Sitefinity:

Review training material and embrace the community, it may be that if you're new to Sitefinity you could re-invent the wheel when Sitefinity already does it... Just understanding what the product has to offer could save you a lot of time in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Sitefinity solving and how is that benefiting you?

What problems is Progress Sitefinity solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were able to redesign an online presence for the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine that had the flexibility to represent a very diverse community. With two hospitals and a robust research community, along with one of the nation's top veterinary schools, and a member of the University of Pennsylvania campus, we needed to be able to diversify our content, all the while keeping a strong and integrated brand identity. We have been able to do that with Sitefinity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

There are plenty of pre-built widgets for all kinds of content including news, blog, social media, general content, and more. The templates are easy to work with and Sitefinity also options a number of connections to platform such as HubSpot and Marketo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

Drag and drop features can be buggy when trying to place widgets and content into pages. Also, sometimes the styling can interfere with adding content because it renders front-end code on the backend making it difficult to place/edit content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Allows me to have multiple environments for testing, provides multi-lingual support, and provides flexible templates making it easy to customize the look and feel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress Sitefinity?

I am very pleased with the product roadmap of this product and their customer support. We are currently testing .net core support since beta version of Sitefinity and their developer has been helping throughout this process. Their response time and time to resolve our development issues for this has been extraordinary. We have scheduled a monthly check-in for our adoption of their new release and allowed us to talk to their dev's directly when we need help. This gives us confidence to use their latest releases as soon as they come in so that we can benefit from them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Sitefinity?

They need to change the whole stack to .net core for more performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Sitefinity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Content management by different dept within the company, instead of relying on Dev cycles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
