    Hi guys!

    My client from Scandinavia wants to update his website and considers to change the CMS. He also has a few company branches and websites in the European countries.

    The system he is considering is the Umbraco CMS. But I want him to change his mind and take the Expression Engine as a main CMS. I do not know Umbraco but I have the experience with the EE. I like the EE a lot and I’d like my client to choose this one over Umbraco.

    Can you give me some advantages of EE over Umbraco?

    Thanks

    These are the Strengths of Expression Engine:
    Commercial support
    Focus on security, with no major security breaches ever
    No restrictions on how a site can be designed
    Weaknesses
    Cost is high, especially for commercial sites
    Can be overkill for simple or smaller sites
    No interactive demo to try it out before you purchase

    These are Strengths for Umbraco:
    Free and paid tutorials and support
    Powerful and flexible for both websites and intranets
    An open API
    Weaknesses
    Primary add-ons are paid
    No demo available to try before you download
    Not really any prebuilt themes available for the front-end

    Now you can easily choose which one you got to work with.
