Titan CMS vs Umbraco CMS: Which is a better fit?

The quality of the code is superb and the speed at which our team can change display or publishing security is amazing.

Use of SSO creates a single point of failure-It could need more time and money to integrate with other systems in order to fix compatibility problems.

Our overall experience has been great. Titan gives us the opportunity to create, if not exactly what our clients are looking for, we at least have the flexibility to get close to their vision.

I have an older version on Titan, so I would say the interface isn't always user friendly. One thing in particular is your inability to copy a block without adding it to the block library.

They encourage customer feedback and input to determine new features or enhancements. I have a dedicated support team that is very responsive to requests.

Forms tool is a little clunky. Native broken link checker would be handy.

I like the ease of use for a non-technical user. I am not the primary administrator, but when I need to go in and make changes or updates, it is very easy for me to do so.

The flexibility to create a range of different webpage layouts, without the need to do any coding is great, and the preview function is particularly useful.

Sometimes experience errors and deployment failures when too many users are in at the same time. Syncing issues from prep to prod cause problems.

We use Umbraco to manage our websites, it's a great CMS that makes managing a large and popular website slightly easier.

Steep learning curve, especially for people unfamiliar with CMS software. There is no official support and no drag-and-drop functionality.

It is hands down, our development teams preference for coding in. And any time we've needed help, our CTO has had great support from the company.

Therefore links become broken and you have to re-link post courier and then courier again.

The pages can be updated fairly quickly and the WYSIWYG page editor is straightforward. What I liked the most was how quickly a page can be saved and published.

Basic stuff that should come out of the box like rel canonical tags etc. have to be custom coded - at least for the sites I have encountered. The search functionality within the CMS is horrible.
