[Hidden-tech] What the comments about using the Contao CMS

[Jeff Mackler]

We're not fans. We didn't deploy anything in it, but we built some test
sites. We've also moved 3 clients out of it and into Wordpress or Drupal.
They were miserable in Contao due to the lack of features, support,
community, and general UX.

Just from the perspective of getting developer support down the line,
Contao is extremely limited (read that as expensive), and WordPress is the
opposite. I'm sure someone who has used it more than we have could give you
some reasons why it's better, but I can't think of a single one.

Good luck.

-Jeff
