Google Drive vs MODX: Which is a better fit?

Diego: My name is Diego, and I work with Youth With A Mission. We're 16 people on staff, and my rating on Google Drive is a four. We use Google Drive to share documents, share information with each other, follow up on projects or specific tasks that we have. So Google Drive is very useful for that purpose. Yeah, I love Google Drive because it allows us to connect with each other. Very easy. It's super easy to navigate, so I think Google Drive is very... There's different apps within or different interfaces within Google Drive that you're able to share documents, and it makes it easy just to work together as a team. One thing I wish that Google Drive would have is... just so it's more compatible with Office documents, like Word and Excel. I know there's their versions in Google, but I wish there's an easy way to make those compatible, easier to navigate. And I also wish there would be maybe plans of storage that are a little bit cheaper. Sometimes they can be a little expensive, but other than that, Google Drive is very useful.

Jakub H.: Hi, I'm Jakub. I'm a designer and I would rate MODX five from five. And for more review, click below. Before I started to use MODX, I was basically coding sites by myself, or basically the backend of the websites, and it turned out to be really difficult to figure out all the URLs, and the managing of the resources and documents and images. I was looking for something else, something which would help me. There was a lot of stuff on the market like, Joomla! and WordPress, and other things, Drupal at that time. But nothing seems to fit because I wanted creative freedom. Basically, I wanted to connect my site, which I designed the way I wanted it to some management system, and not to bend some pre-made template to my design. MODX somehow materialized and filled all the things, or all the features and all the requirements I needed at that time, so I started using MODX. Why I chose MODX? Basically, the first thing was the easy way to configure friendly URLs on the server and to assign them to the pages. It worked basically out of the box. It was super simple to set up. The other things were the document life cycle basically, because publishing and unpublishing, or programming it by yourself is a tedious task. And the third thing I would point out is basically the super-advanced caching, basically from MODX, because it caches the rendered pages and loads them afterwards super quickly. Installing MODX is super simple. You basically download a zip file and if you have Apache and Myski server handy already, you just upload the files and run the setup and follow the instructions. I never had any issues. If the server was modern, doing this is really extremely simple. In the newer versions, it makes the whole thing even more convenient because there are languages you can choose from, and the whole setup is really straightforward. I wouldn't shy from trying this. I would say, yes, it is simple. It is very simple. Well, if you're considering MODX, I would first look at what do you really want to do with your site? If you need a website builder, then MODX is definitely not the tool to use. But if you want something to manage your website or manage your content inside of a website, or play with basically APIs and are profound with some PHP, then you should definitely start using MODX. Or if you want to amaze your clients with super simple interface, and very, very logical structure of the [inaudible 00:03:03], or basically the website tree or structure, then MODX is definitely the right tool. If you want advanced features such as media management and the document life cycle, like publishing and unpublishing to a specific time, then yes, MODX once again is the right tool. There is a ton of plugins, which extend the functionality of MODX. I think you can find pretty much everything or any feature you are looking forward to use in a modern website.
