Magnolia offers a great authoring experience for content writers and thanks to that the road to happy and satisfied customers is already started. For developers, it is quite easy to get familiar with magnolia development environment.

If you are not an experienced developer it is very difficult to start and do things in the right way. Even the community is growing in the past years there is still a lot of space for growing.

Magnolia has plenty of enterprise features already built-in like workflow and personalization. Thanks to that we are able to resolve requirements that are quite standard and required for today's modern websites. PUR(public user registration) module is a very useful and helpful module for creating a login/register form if necessary. Managing roles, groups and users is another thing that magnolia already has simplified.

In the latest version UX is highly intuite so building a site is easy and fast. It also offers a lot of predefined templates which one could use.

I have faced a problem where I needed a detailed explanation of a particular module, which was not covered enough in the documentation.

It supports our Business needs and also covers easy deployment in customers environments.

Magnolia CMS guarantees extremely smooth coordination with a few outsider applications. It is strong, quick, and dependable. With magnolia, we can now effectively make pages and oversee content.

Magnolia's group needs to zero in more on rolling out new improvements as change is the only thing that is steady and takes into account the speed at which the contenders give refreshes. Aside from that, we have not noticed any deficiencies in the device.

Magnolia works with its clients by furnishing them with a lot of adaptabilities. One can become familiar with the fundamental level of this CMS in several days attributable to its decent UI. It is an open-source platform for effectively taking care of dynamic substances. Efficiency sponsor.

Magnolia is a powerful and robust content management system that helps create custom apps and helps store the data in those apps. It is secure and provides multisite support. It is an open-source platform that provides cloud storage and multi-level security. It also prevents any data loss and due to the presence of a web-based app, it is easier to access it from anywhere. My favourite feature of Magnolia is multi-site management as it helps to manage multiple sites in one place without any hassle. This saves a lot of time for developers as well as solution architects. Another feature I love is it provides smooth content migration which makes the whole process very efficient and hassles free. It also provides multilingual support which basically helps in the wider reach of our product.

Magnolia user interface is complex to understand which can make its customer lose interest in using it. Magnolia must have a discussion forum to clear the doubts of their clients and to have a healthy discussion about new features and their usage. Also while using angular js with magnolia the whole process becomes very slow.

The biggest business problem was assembling sites, so by using this CMS tool, assembling the sites became easier and helped provide the client with an opportunity to modify some sort of functions. It has improved the overall efficiency and availability.

New 6.1 UI, Available components and way we can customise them as our need.

Loading speed can be improved. 6.1 version is little slower.

I was creating components for my website. Most of the components were available but for some components I was customising as per need

Magnolia is very strong open source CMS platform which help end user to manage dynamic content e.g. Websites, videos, images, blogs, publishing content to various environments and many more. Its having rich inbuilt features to integrate with many social media platforms and use the contents within out portals. I like the apis available for development its made very easy code for developers.

There are some areas where magnolia team would be need to more focus on the adoption of new changes more frequently as the world is changing very fast. Although they are doing great job in all the way to add improvements, I appreciate it.

I have done digital transformation for an legacy java portal

- I never thoughts that Java has fantastic CMS like "Magnolia" compare with other languages its easy to use and learn, I just learned basic level of Magnolia CMS in two to three days as its just have good User Interface to handle content. -Powerful and robust content management platform. -Customizable based on user needs. -Updates available based on new changes. -Any developer with basic knowledge of Java and JSP can assemble and create website. -Secure and provide the multisite support.

Sometimes if we have update template and other layout related things for example replacing of textbox control with drop down box or list box with some default value, it will update other component alignment as well and forcefully need CSS change externally to handle user interface rest things well and good.

- It has been used as a Web Content Management tool for the Milan, Italy's fashion platform which is very big fashion company. - It provides the multisite support for the multiple website using the single platform for example I have used for four different language. - Creation of common templates which could be used across all the sites.

Easy to setup and use. The editorial part is very intuitive and the pool of modules to use is enough to start with the essential business functions. Development environment allows adding new functionalities by extendint the existing or implementing new modules. Overall a complete Content Managment System with great focus on Business services and values.

The system is a bit heavy for smaller sites.

The ability of a client to manage their own sites. Easy editing and publishing functions.

One of the easiest content management platforms to use for launching and creating new applications and websites. It helps me to share our projects completely or even have of the features apart as well. It is specially built for your heavy integration. It is an open-source platform and provides your cloud storage. No data loss and it is user-friendly easy to understand. It is a web-based app so it is easy to access from anywhere and anytime. It has a backup which gives you free space and saves your content from being messed up.

It has a lack of dashboard for administration and no workflow information is shown. Implementations in the admin user interface are quite difficult. Migration from previous releases is expensive and hard. Some of its version is not compatible with its older versions. If you want to uninstall any module it would be messy. You must need 2 databases one for file systems as well. The admin interface is very hard to use. The first setup of magnolia CMS seemed very confusing.

Magnolia CMS tool doesn’t support a good administrative panel and even the paid version is very time taking. Thus, there are some amendments that even the premium version needs because this one doesn’t worth the price. There come the incompatibility issues and several installations, management plus plugin issues. Therefore, the developers should address these issues as soon as possible.

It is the software with a bundle of premium specifications and it is quite stable for use. Additionally, you will get the top purchaser services and get to manage multiple websites using this single platform. This software provides multiple language support and stable content transaction.

Easy to plug, Spring Integration with the help of blossom library. Author to Public features, Workflow management.

Content node was bit tricky, had issue with publishing data from Author to Public. Only once faced a blocker for which we had a connect with magnolia developers to solve.

Since it's a CMS i.e. nothing but a content management system, so our main agenda was to deal with dynamic content but without any deployment or server restart. Hence, we chose Magnolia as a CMS tool with which any one can change the content of a webpage without having much knowledge on technical front. Not just it's easy to use by any naive person but also one can have varied version control as well such as to rollback if needed. So over-all, it was brilliant package if you have dynamic content on your web page

I liked the ability to create custom apps, store data in those apps. It reduces the overhead of adding a new database and gives more customisation power.

Using react or angular with magnolia makes it very slow. Most of the UI development must be done using plain html and jquery.

We are using it for managing dynamic content on our websites. The marketing team can change stuffs without contacting dev team. They can easily add/remove components, change content of static pages like about us , control styling to a certain extent, change banners, temporarily add offers etc.

Magnolia is the powerful, easy and fast way to create and manage the content of your website. With the latest versions and updates, it is even more easy to develop the website using Light-Weight modules and are cloud based. The latest version also provide with the CLI tool for the development. As the end user of the tool, it also provides the multisite support.

The only downside I have seen is for the existing user who are using quite outdated version of Magnolia. It is not very easy to migrate from 4.x version to the latest version as there is huge change in internal structure and specification used by the tool.

- It was been used as a Web Content Management tool. - Providing the multi site support for the different website in the single platform. - Creation of common templates which could be used across all the sites.

Magnolia comes with a ton of features like any other CMS tool in the market. The one thing that distinguishes this product from its competitors is the ability to develop custom features for enterprise grade applications. It is highly adaptable and can be leveraged with other frameworks quite easily.

There is a lesser documentation available on the internet for this tool. Also lots of time you will be doing custom development for which reference resources might be hard to find. Overall a good dedicated team to help you out with your needs.

We were using the tool to centrally manage the web content across multitude of sites with internationalization features. Customize the websites for local country specific needs.

Managing content is super easy with Magnolia. It's makes easier to create a website with the basic computer knowledge. At the same it fulfill the complex requirements like multilingual support, URL redirection and many more features. And best part is a developer can easily extend the core feature and customised as per his reqirement.

Upgrading to 5+ version was a tough task.

Right now we are in process to create a websites, which uses the data from different out of box content app and some custom content app. Since data are stored in app and not on the pages, changing at one place reflects across the website.
