CMS Hardtalk

As Sitecore moves toward focusing on marketing and not improving the basic Content Management Experience for the editor and at the same time has developed a technical platform that is more complex than needed for most customers, perhaps it is time to reconsider if you are on the right platform after all.

In my experience development in Sitecore is more expensive than the comparative CMS and compared to the free Open Source WCMS, you have to pay licenses and Service Assurance beside the development costs.

From my perspective e.g. Umbraco with its simple setup and transparent UI really is an alternative for you, if you are a midsized, content oriented company, dedicated to the MS .NET  environment.

In my point of view Sitecore doesn’t seem that interested in this part of the market, even that letting Umbraco in will in my opinion be a huge mistake.

Umbraco is well supported by MS and the performance LAB to give Sitecore a hard time in the near future.

Keep up the spirit Umbraco – the future is looking bright!
