It is a complete portal for structured and multi-site companies, in which all the intranet applications necessary for a modern organization can be organized

I like the platform structure which is Enterprise. Its extensibility with modules and plug-ins. His possibility to configure login with Google, Facebook and lots other ID Management system.

I am sorry that the part of the community (open source software) has decreased over time and there is less and less support outside the legacy line

In current company we are using liferay DXP 7.1 for banking website development. My company choose liferay because the only platform which provide Total web CMS base development . My part in liferay is theme development and custom portlet development as per the company guidelines . Liferay provide full control of CMS which user friendly for customer and also high in security .We have develop many big company site in liferay because this is the only CMS platform till date which have all the custom modules .

The only problem in liferay is licence cost is too high compared to other product in market. also some time support is delay. support Community is very less so that's why i have faced some problem regarding coding.

I developed two websites for different customers with very different needs and despite finding some issues, the results were pretty good.

Customisation, available features and Java-base tool so new portlet can be developed internally

I don't like tutorials beign available only upon payment, documentation is also messy but there is room for improvement

This platform is the perfect solution when you need a responsive mobile design of your website or an app with the same contents. It's really easy to transform your current website to a perfect mobile version by using the already integrated features in the platform. Another good point is that you can manage your resources like images and videos from the same CMS without the need of having to rely on another third-party client. Being an open-source tool allows you to customise it to your convenience and you are not limited like it can happen with other commercial options. Compared to other solutions, the cost of its implementation is relatively low.

One of the major cons of Liferay is that there is no documentation available. It's true that because it's open source you can find a lot of information from communities. Regarding the portal security, there is room for improvement. Especially because you need to work with droplets, which are sometimes not easy to develop and you can end up developing something insecure.

It is awesome portal for enterprise use. It is giving lots of functionality out of the box which needs more than 1 month to custom implementation.
