15 October 2025
5.0 Show more details
We have managed to build several projects, both for established and new to the market clients. Every aspect desired was implemented using Drupal architecture and we covered successfully everything in good time. The major positives are: scalability - amazing as the extension posibility is great!
Proper integrations, various databases and interface wise options are a bliss!
Pros:
Top notch CMS, powerful if it is properly implemented and adjusted to fot the purpose. The fact that it is truly open source makes it legendary. Excellent flexibility and endless configurations are all offered. Highly recommend!
Cons:
The PHP configuration might requiere some skills or in some cases, specific skills. This is not an issue as the adaptability of the databases is part of it.

"Drupal Review"

18 February 2025

I didn't have a bad experience with Drupal but it became more work than I had time for.
Pros:
Drupal was my first attempt at CRM website development. It was a good introduction
Cons:
The more I tried working with Drupal the more weaknesses appeared from their 3rd party vendors.

"Powerful but complex"

3 March 2025
4.0 Show more details
Drupal offers powerful content management capabilities with excellent flexibility, but comes with a steep learning curve. The module ecosystem provides solutions for most requirements, though implementation often requires technical expertise. Performance is good when properly configured, but maintenance and updates can be challenging.
Pros:
Extensive customization possibilities if you know what you're doing.
Cons:
Hard to learn, but there is a lot of information online.

"Drupal Can Support Most Typical Needs"

2 December 2025
4.0 Show more details
There were no issues with ongoing use, just may have slowed us down from implementing custom/unique functionality without having a dedicated web developer on staff
Pros:
It is lower cost than other solutions, is not complicated to learn, and meets most needs for a typical site
Cons:
Some more nuanced logic/requirements for functionality are a little harder to implement, and the security team had some concerns about not even patching being released
