## Reviews

### "das voll anpassbare Content-Management-System für Deine Webseite" — 5.0/5

> **Christian** | *5 April 2023* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Contao bietet eine riesige Code-Basis und man kann viele Funktionen als Erweiterungen nachrüsten. Immobilienportale (mit Datenabgleich-Schnittstelle), Online-Shops, Literaturtabellen und riesige Seiten mit tausenden Seiten Content lassen sich anlegen, pflegen und bleiben immer noch halbwegs übersichtlich.Ich erstelle schon seit mehr als 10 Jahren Webseiten mit Contao, und bisher konnte ich noch jede Herausforderung damit lösen.
> 
> **Cons**: Für mehr als die Standard-Features sollte man Programmierkenntnisse (insb. PHP und HTML für die Templates) mitbringen.Das Updaten funktioniert (bisher) nicht so einfach und vollautomatisch wie bei Wordpress.Auch die Inhaltsbearbeitung ist bei Wordpress (mit bestimmten Erweiterungen) sehr einfach durch Laien bewerkstelligbar. Hier hat man mit Contao (mit der Ausrichtung auf professionellere Agenturen) das Nachsehen.
> 
> Ich bin Contao seit Jahren treu geblieben. Einfache Projekte mache ich mit Wordpress, aber sobald ich wirklich in die Tiefe eintauche und Templates im Detail anpasse, setze ich jedes Mal auf Contao.
