    "New Joomla 4 is a leap ahead "

    Posted 2021-08-27

    Pros: The new interface is a breeze to use. It now has a web services API, best in class for accessibility. Scores very high with lighthouse out of the box.
    Intuitive, fast and with the new workflows capability its a dream to use at any level.
    All the bits that that were missing for me have just been filled in with the release of 4.
    Media manager was improved.
    Security was always good but now has many extra features not seen with other CMS.

    Cons: It wont make tea. For a free product thats used on 3% of the entire web theres little to fault it. The media manager was the problem but is much better in 4.

    Overall: Ive been watching the development of 4 and it's come a long way. It's taken its time to get to market but it's finally there and I am loving the ease of use over the old. It took a morning to get the hang of it after years of using 3 as well as WordPress and Drupal, but now 4 knocks the socks off the others for its usability and extensibility. Love the new workflows feature.

    Overall: Joomla is adequate for working on website development; we use it frequently, which has helped us save time and effort while getting the most creative websites. We have benefited from each tool and its default templates that have streamlined the building of websites remarkably. Using it, you don't need to be a web development expert to build the most creative websites; it provides everything you need and is quite intuitive.

    "It is the best program that can make my website a great experience"

    Posted 2021-04-19

    Pros: I like the software to be of great use in entrenching leadership and building planned websites. The web traffic increased remarkably since the process has been done to expose a massive series of programming codes. The support of the program is highly excellent.

    Cons: I don't particularly appreciate that the interface is a bit cumbersome to understand. However, the software has great guides.

    Overall: We have used this program to make us aware of the idea of being able to solve programming problems for clients or to create websites with unique and strengthened templates. We have optimized our entire platform to improve the experience for our potential clients. I highly recommend this program to intensify the quality of the website optimization process. It has been very influential and reasonable to do a great job in programming.
