"Mura CMS-flexible, adaptable right out of box"
What do you like best about Mura CMS?

From a support point of view, we have almost no calls from our end-users. Their ability to pick up the product immediately was a huge plus. The development team helped us roll out integration with LDAP and we were good to go from there.

What do you dislike about Mura CMS?

Even though I'm an avid ColdFuser, there are some limits to the amount of plug-ins available when compared with some other packages or languages. I had a harder learning curve initially when writing customizations, but once the initial curve was done I haven't had any issues.

What problems is Mura CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have our intranet based exclusively on Mura and have been using one version or another for several years. Good feedback from all involved. Have different sites broken out for various user groups and have had no problem with maintenance.

"Versatile Platform for Many Levels of Web Development"
What do you like best about Mura CMS?

The Mura CMS has out of the box functionality that makes it easy to start with content management. I have used it for traditional content sites and as the backbone of more complex products, too. I like that it is so versatile.

What do you dislike about Mura CMS?

Documentation is good but could be better. Learning to implement some functionality often requires combing through Google Groups.

What problems is Mura CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have deployed Mura to support multiple web sites, a complex e-commerce site, and a Human Resources application. It has been very fast and stable. The plug in architecture has allowed me to easily add features.

" 6-Year Mura User"
What do you like best about Mura CMS?

Mura is amazing at creating modern digital websites quickly. I have created specific-purpose websites in a matter of hours using responsive themes. On the other end of the spectrum, Mura is highly customizable. The class extension manager allows you to create forms with any feature you can imagine. You can then power those features further by adding CFML. I am not a programmer and can extend Mura's powerful out-of-the-box features quite easily. Beyond web sites, Mura is what I use as the CMS under my modern web app development. I like to combine MEAN stack-style functionality to Mura CMS. As a 30-year veteran of the tech game, I find the fact that Mura is offered for free to be quite mind-boggling. I would have killed for this amazing mix of features, extensibility and reliability decades ago.

What do you dislike about Mura CMS?

As a non-programmer, setting up Mura is difficult for me. I tend to rely on Mura webhosts to get all the settings correct. I find setting up a local dev box time consuming. I'm also disappointed the Mura community has not grown faster over the last 6 years. It deserves a wider audience. I think that if Angular or ReactJS replaced jQuery as the base JS library/framework, it might get more attention.

What problems is Mura CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Mura for websites that serve up training professional development. I have added custom training widgets to the Mura framework in order to use it as a learning content management system (LCMS).

"Best Coldfusion CMS on the market."
What do you like best about Mura CMS?

I like the rich feature set included right 'out of the box'. You really can start right away without much customization. But I also really appreciate how extendable it is for developers to mold to customers business needs.

What do you dislike about Mura CMS?

Nothing to dislike about Mura, except the don't ship In-N-out from their HQ in Sacramento.

What problems is Mura CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Corporate websites, corporate intranets. Quick spin up time after initial setup. Very extendable for my clients custom requests to meet their business requirements.

"A great CMS with a lot of functionality out-of-the-box!"
What do you like best about Mura CMS?

The usability and easiness of using Mura CMS, as well as all the functionality that comes out-of-the-box. All of my clients that use Mura CMS to maintain their website have no issue getting used to the administrator interface and I therefor have very little work supporting them.

What do you dislike about Mura CMS?

There is only a limited amount of themes and plugins available on the market. But since it's so easy to create your own or to convert an Bootstrap theme, you can get around this very easily. The same counts for the plugins. Nearly everything you might need is already available out-of-the-box and if not, Mura CMS is easily extendable.

What problems is Mura CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've bootstrapped a lot of websites very quickly with Mura CMS. And the great thing is that, once the sites get bigger, Mura CMS keeps a perfect solution to work with.

"Flexibility to update content on the fly"
What do you like best about Mura CMS?

Mura has allowed us to quickly update content on the fly and build new pages in hours instead of weeks. One thing that my team enjoys using is the change-set feature. This has allowed us to create temporary changes to the website that are easy to roll-back. It seems the sky is the limit with Mura in terms of your creativity and your vision.

What do you dislike about Mura CMS?

Our implementation was bumpy as we transitioned from our old platforms to Mura. We made our deadline but my team had to put in a lot of extra work that we were not planning on to get there.

What problems is Mura CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ownership and control over our website. Ability to make quick changes. Personalization and ABM experiences.

"Full featured and easy to customize"
What do you like best about Mura CMS?

Mura CMS has a great feature set and is very easy to customize to meet site requirements. It has a long history and is about to release version 7. The development team behind the product is fantastic and eager to help potential developers and users of the platform.

What do you dislike about Mura CMS?

As it is CFML-based, it does not have the adoption rate of some other CMS's available. This limits the plugins that exist in the wild when compared to other platforms such as Wordpress and Drupal.

What problems is Mura CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Mura CMS to run a large non-profit website that features many different types of content, forms and e-commerce capabilities. Mura has added features over time and allowed us to provide more functionality for our staff and end users. We have also worked with the developers, Blue River Interactive, on a responsive theme for our site and they were a pleasure to work with.

Це також неймовірно стійкий, ніколи не розбитий.
