Developing web and mobile apps based on 4 generations of eZ Systems CMS's has been a fantastic experience.
The very best thing about eZ Platform is the backend. Symfony, Twig and clean APIs on the top make it super flexible and extensible solution wether you want html, REST or just about any other output.
Even if the community these days is not most crowdy out there, the eZ Crew is easy reachable trough Slack. Help is never far away.
Whereas the backend always has been the strong side, the front end hasn't. The contrast to e.g. Wordpress where the front end is good but the backend is crap is great. That said, the front end is improving all the time.
The same goes for documentation. Historically you needed to be quite an eZ Nerd to know where to find the good stuff. These days that is finally changing as the docs get better by the day.
If your needs are mostly backend oriented - go for it!
Even if the content model hasn't evolved much the last decade, it is so flexible that I hardly gives me constraints.
I develop basic solutions that need to deliver on different platforms. I tend to make my own APIs with clean and light JSON output, but I could easily switch to e.g. REST if that would suite my needs better.
* flexible content structure
* multi-language support
* multi-site support
* easy to customize
The CMS is powerful and has a lot of feature ready to use but it's also complex and it will take before you start liking it as a developer.
Managing (web content for clients which is then available for multiple output channels. Once you have experience with eZ Publish you can quickly develop solutions.
There are so many things that one can love eZ Publish for... My feeling is that the majority of the good things that we appreciate about the CMS today result from the fact that the software had been designed, coded and evolved the way it should have been done, in a very mature manner. Simple as that, yet so rare for so long and in so many open source projects. Stability, extensibility, robustness, security, flexibility, extensive use of best practices in terms of content management, content model as well as code organization and application architecture - all gracefully negotiated and combined together, at least since around legacy version 3.5.x which was the eZ Publish beginning for me about 10 years ago and now additionally amplified with Symfony2. It all makes eZ Publish a very solid, reliable code and project base. After all these years I am still enthusiastic to work with it.
To name few things I like about eZ Publish in particular:
- great, mostly very consistent PHP-level API and codebase (although I can’t deny awaiting the legacy code drop,
- it is great for prototyping and negotiating content and information architecture,
- with Symfony2 framework on board, it is even more robust,
- it is a Content Management Framework rather than just a CMS, there’s really little ground for confusion with most of popular open source products,
- it does help to shape and enforce high content culture within an organization and editorial team,
- it has great a community of enthusiast and experts,
- it is open source - you are able to discover all the awesomeness and adopt it to your own liking and needs and also contribute from time to time!
The content model doesn’t seem to evolve too much anymore.
The general adoption of eZ Publish on our market doesn’t change at best.
To successfully evolve complex web applications or content repositories based on eZ Publish you either need an expert implementation partner or an experienced internal team. Great as it is, the CMF is not immune to bad design or architectural decisions. To guarantee a future-proof solution you may need a team of people with deep understanding of eZ Publish content model abstraction, advanced caching, all sorts of low-level extensibility and all kinds of other details that take a lot of time and practice to master.
We have developed on top of eZ Publish since around 2006 and used it for all sizes of projects, from smallest websites to large scale editorial, content repository, social or e-commerce solutions for customers in various industries. It provided us with ability to easily deal with multi-site, multi-language and/or high-load architectures. It was effectively integrated with numerous IT systems including ERP, e-commerce, payment providers, content providers etc. It allowed developing entirely dedicated extension-based applications and solutions, either interconnected or disconnected from eZ Publish content model or other core features.
eZ Publish is a highly flexible cloud-based CMS system for managing, publishing any kind of content and across multiple devices. The countless number of no-cost add-ons and ease of administration is a huge plus...
Lack of a site setup wizard is one of the few areas where eZ Publish falls short.
We were looking for a robust multimedia management system, eZ Publish met and exceeded the requirements.
What I prefer of Ez Publish is the Security and the Stability. I am working with EzPublish for more than 5 years, I never had security problems. Even without update the CMS for years you will be safe of hacking. I started to implement this tecnology in Chile. In the agency I am working all website was done with Joomla and Wordpress and the agency was suffering hacking everytime. Joomla and Wordpress need you to be always attentive of new versions. All websites was rewrited with ezpublish and nowadays we can focus 100% on developments improving the quality of our solucions. Of course, this is only THE best think I like with ez but i could talk about ez for hours.
I dislike that there is no automatic update of the CMS. All have to be done manually and this is really annoying. (at least with the ez comunity version. I also dislike the fact that it is not possible to extends an existing class (talking about "content class", not about PHP class (Employe is a Person, Director is a Person, both should have comon field ...
Secure, Powerful, Scalable, allow you fast improvment of your existing ezpublish projects
With ezpublish we are able to answer all projects with one solución, from medium websites to very complicated websites. Ez Publish is using the same database structure for years, not because its an old structure, but just because the structure was very logical from the begining of the ezpublish project. This allow us to update our knowledge very quickly and to always up to date.
The most important feature of eZ Publish, and the one that made it such a great choice for us, is its flexibility. From highly customizable content modeling options to complete separation of content and presentation, all aspects of this CMS are thought through with adaptability in mind. Underlying PHP framework (Symfony provides superb extensibility and can be utilized to develop custom made solutions for enterprise level clients.
Administration of content tends to be somewhat tedious, due to customizable content model that needed a generic administration interface. That being said, it is rather easy to develop a custom admin interface tailored to a specific use case. Additionally, the system had a somewhat steep learning curve, which should flattened with switch to a well documented Symfony framework that is used by recent versions of the CMS.
We are developing custom made web solutions for medium sized and large customers. These kind of clients need flexibility and can appreciate the stability and customization options that eZ Publish provides. Additionally, integration options are a must in projects we are usually working on and Symfony PHP framework, upon which is eZ Publish is built, excels in these situations.
There are many thing I like about eZ. First of all its open source which offers more innovation and efficiency when implementing web solutions on top of it. At the same time the end client has, optionally, enterprise level support to lower the risk. Furthermore, eZ has a great architecture with 2 important pillars: extensible content model for channel agnostic content management and separation of content and presentation. It has several API-s that offer easier integrations and customisation. It is based on Symfony2 PHP framework which offer almost unlimited ways of extending the core. It is known for its upgradeability (taking care that the product can be upgraded smoothly when needed
The weakest point currently (Q1 2015 is the editor experience which is based on the old administration interface (the concept dates back from 2003 or so. The long awaited new editorial interface is in the works so we should have more appropriate experience for editors during 2015, finally.
Also, the learning curve is high, but it is a consequence of the fact that it not a simple CMS, it has many features and traits, and it is possible to do the same thing in many ways. So eZ might be better described as a Content Management Framework. Documentation (especially for beginners is not very rich which contributes to the steep learning curve. This is changing recently as newer versions of eZ are based on Symfony2 which offers plenty of resources for developers.
During 2015 eZ Systems will rollout a completely new editorial interface. That should make the product much easier to use by editors than it is today.
My company is implementing eZ based solutions from 2005. We successfully implemented and are still implementing medium and big sized web solutions. We very rarely reached limit with the product, there was always a way how to solve some issue. We like the combination of open source and enterprise which is rare and hard to accomplish. The architecture made it possible to build efficiently multi-site, multi-language and multi-channel solutions for our clients and partners. They appreciate very much, not just the cost, but the time to market benefit which is very important in this fast paced web landscape.
