I have been with Joomla since V1.0 and it has been a great Journey - I have never left it becuse it has proven to be a great solution for all my Projects.
Whenever I've deployed a Joomla site, it inevitably gets infested by spammers and there's been instances where sites have gotten hacked.
A stable and reliable CMS with two-factor authentication and good security features. A full community of developers that offer extensions for nearly any function or integrations you can imagine.
I have experienced quite some problems placing upgrades. Expecially when an update failed (because of the database version for example), the site became unusable.
I was seeking for a powerful software, one which builds any kind of website or blogs, a flexible one as well with vast templets for superb customization. Well, I do not dispute this software at all.
Things we required to run our websites began to break with new releases, and the support was no longer there. It was frustrating, but necessary, to move to something more widely adopted.
A huge base of plugins and extensions, including free ones. Open source, with a great community, which is open to help you with the issue you can face along the way.
What I don't like is that sometimes compatibility errors occur when installing plugins simultaneously.
It has good integration with popular Git platforms and its own Git. Multidev environments help to demo features easily and really benefit the QA and development workflow.
The website and pricing structure are VERY misleading.
I love the code management and seamless transition between dev, test and live environments. It is rare to work on a platform that is both beautiful and provides tons of features and functions.
At first, I hated the fact that I couldn't install plugins and themes directly on the Live environment.
I love the the development, test and live environments and how easy it is to moving code from one to the other. The automatic backups are also great and can be a life-saver when in a jam.
Lack of payment options. Bit complex during initial setup.
Integration our favorite applications into our website projects is awesome. Great Security Tools, and User Access Management.
It has resulted in _not one_ Pantheon-hosted website in my portfolio ever being hacked and.
Tim: Hi, my name is Tim, I'm a marketing technologies consultant, my rating for Joomla is four. Click below for more videos. I use Joomla as a content management system for a large enterprise website. I like Joomla's ability to create components and customize the site easily. I dislike the upgrade pass, it can be complicated to update Joomla when necessary.
