Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Drupal CMS for almost all our websites including a big portal that consists of 5 different sites from variety of areas. The site is used by our organization and our members (around 5 000 people) across the US. We are covering all aspects of bankruptcy related things and providing accurate information to our clients through journal articles, law reviews, conferences, materials, recordings and etc.

Pros

Drupal is a stable, well built Content Management System that allows users to enjoy the website. It's regularly maintained and updated. That's what makes it a reliable tool for creating websites.
Drupal works with thousands of themes that could be customized according to your requirements. Also, layout of pages could be changed without any problems.
Drupal handles users' roles and permission assignment without any problems and allows administrators configure them at any point. Creating, changing and deleting users' accounts is a pleasant and easy to handle process.

Cons

The only thing I would recommend is more control on custom modules. The problem with those is bugs that are not addressed sometimes.

Likelihood to Recommend

Drupal is a perfect system for a big sites that work with a massive amount of data and requires many different things combined together and in one place. Also, Drupal is perfect for handling many users with different roles and permissions. Also, the work with content is a nice, pleasant and smooth process that is easy to maintain.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Drupal for making websites for my customers. Via this way they're able to manage their website themselves.

Pros

Very flexible and easy way of managing content on a website for a webmaster.
For PHP developers, there are a lot of modules in the community which solve a general problem or connect to third party systems.
Good management of users and roles in the backend.

Cons

For developers: it is not written in MVC which should make it even more logical. Version 8 will be in MVC.

Likelihood to Recommend

To make a web shop or specific web application, don't use Drupal. But if you want to make a great website with lots of content, user interactivity and flexibility for the webmaster: use Drupal.
