Review

Have been implementing umbraco since march 2007, from small websites to large multilingual web applications and community sites.

Using umbraco, development is faster and more fun!

For me, the greatest advantage of umbraco is it’s flexibility.

Umbraco rocks !

Very easy to set up and use.

Could have more built-in/available packages.

The best community support in history!

Done almost 60 Umbraco builds, and the platform goes from strength to strength. Takes a little bit to get up to speed, but after your first build, you’ll see the power of Umbraco :)

Getting quality training is a must!

Review

I have been using umbraco since 2006 over 18 websites live and counting.

I stumbled across Umbraco while reviewing numerous opensource CMS’s (typo3, Mambo, plone). IAS as a company were looking for an opensource CMS for a particular target audience.

The winner for me was its easy of use and the active community support. Training courses with certification were available to quick start our Umbraco journey.

Its not called the friendly CMS for nothing!
