This website works well in an academic setting. It's easy to add pages as your site expands/grows. It's really easy to use and modify pages once you know what you're doing, but it can be a little tricky to get the hang of it at first. It is definitely useful to have in-person or virtual training before you dive in.

• Assets are easily managed and can be edited independently of the page they exist on.
• Version history is handled well. Allows for a comment section to note what changes have been made.

• The reports could be prettier, more templates in order to avoid having to customize for each client so heavily.

• OU Campus could use some improving on their upload changes as far as naming the document because when you are trying to upload the same document with minor revisions, OU Campus requires you to change the name of the document within OU Campus which creates multiple documents in the workfolder.
• When naming documents to upload into OU Campus, it would be nice if we could name out documents the way we would instead of having to put an underscore to indicate a space in the document. Most users of OU Campus has not had proper training to know that you need to do that.

I don't work at the college any longer, but I believe they will renew the license for the OU Campus Content Management System because of all the great benefits they have had since they initially deployed it. The system is very intuitive and easy to use. Department leads love it. The IT department also loves it because it saves them a lot of time and resources.

It's very straightforward for basic use, but less you dig in more for advanced use. Seems like it would be approachable to the average person.

ManageWP is definitely the best in class product for WordPress website management. There are other tools such as InfiniteWP that do similar things, but don't have as complete an offering.

I think the visual editing and version control. If the CMS server is down the website is still live because of content independent of the server.

• Increased satisfaction with user experience. OU Campus has made it easier for us to address problems when they arise, making our website more efficient.
• Role-based control. Our old CMS made it very easy for users to change fonts and colors on their sections, which was very detrimental to the overall brand. That's not a problem anymore.
• Reduced training times. OU Campus is so easy to use, I've been able to cut training times down by half.
