Understand and Evaluate before the final step

It is always important that you avoid making haste decisions in life, be it anything and everything. Just like that while confirming to a CMS platform like Sitefinity, it is very critical that you attempt to look at it from all sides. Yes, it is true that a company will go on and conduct the required research and analysis for the same. But when it comes to Sitefinity there are some things that people tend to miss out on or ignore. So, what are these misinterpreted facts about Sitefinity CMS?

 

  • One major misconception people have about Sitefinity CMS is that it is overpriced and over-rated. This could be because there are several other CMS platforms that are available for free, some other platforms that can be availed and used at a much-reduced cost, etc. But what they tend to miss is the range of benefits and features Sitefinity offers in comparison with these CMS platforms. Plus if you dream big enough, it is important that you choose nothing but the best platform for your business. 

 

  • The next one to make to this list is that people believe that Sitefinity has a difficult architecture that makes it difficult to implement and work with. Well, on that note you are missing out on the primary and core idea that Sitefinity put forth. It is not just a developer’s platform, but it is built and structured in a way that accommodates Digital Marketers and Content Department as well. Therefore it can be understood that Sitefinity comes with not-so-difficult architecture and structure. 

 

  • Last but not the least, some people tend to take Sitefinity to be a high-maintenance CMS platform.

Even when it comes to updates, one will have to work on it but it is still not a very complex system to deal with.

It is certain that a CMS platform will not work on its own and one will have to work on it constantly. But the results and outputs that can be reaped out of it can be said to be of good quality and returns.
