Why Coredna is the best CMS on the market

We wanted a site we could update regularly without technical support, we wanted it to work well for search, especially to load super fast.

Pros:

Easy to use and handles complex requirements. The was each component is configurable is a real game changer. Build it once and reuse many times. Plus our team does not have to ask a developer each time they want something simple done. The Hooks engine allows non tech people to create automation and improve the experience for our users. It has no plugins, everything is within the platform.

Cons:

Can't say there are any. We did not understand the full extent of what we could do with the system at the start.

Reasons for choosing Core dna

All of the built-in features, super helpful support, easy to use interface

Reasons for switching to Core dna

Easier to use, more secure (hosting taken care of), loads way faster. No plugins to maintain. We were sick of waiting for developers to answer an email and help make a change.

Core dna enabled our digital transformation

One of the things that really set Core dna apart, aside from their tech, was the support we received. Their team was always willing to jump in and help. This direct engagement help get our team's mastery of the system complete much faster than we anticipated. If we had issues or discovered something wasn't working they were on top of it and communicated in a timely way.

Functionality

Pros:

The Core dna solution is so powerful that we were really only limited by our imagination in terms of what we could do. The platform made it easy for our product teams to do their work and cut our time to market by 50%! The headless and API first architecture allowed us to push content between multiple channels and save a ton of time and money on those efforts.

Cons:

As with most any solution and especially one this powerful, it took time to get fully up to speed on how best to use it and deploy the functionality. Once we mastered this though, it was an awesome tool for our use.

Reasons for choosing Core dna

The functionality, cost, and ability to do the work with our team were all important factors in choosing Core dna. We didn't have to have a team of engineers to get stuff done. Our engineers were able to focus on bringing new features to the table and making all of our products better, rather than focusing on the CMS.

Pros:

We are a low end user but find we are able to do what we need and there is always support available

Cons:

There are aspects that appear to be not as user friendly as the Microsoft products we use every day but we have leant to adapt over the years. It does what we need at our very rudimentary level.

Great Way to Manage my Franchise Locations

Our business had multiple franchise locations which each targeted a slightly different market. Core dna's franchise application made it easy to give each location its own content with location specific news, blogs and e-commerce. All locations were managed from the same dashboard and I could allow each location's marketing director to manage their own content well maintaining brand consistency.
