## Reviews

### "Economical Basic Website Manager with Good Customer Service" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *21 October 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: They helped transition us from our last website manager to their platform and provided good basic personalized training and some ongoing support. With some basic training of users, maintenance is fairly easy. I also like that there is basically a "splash page" from which I can quickly go back and forth from our various Catapult platform products.
> 
> **Cons**: Heavy reliance on pre-done templates and layouts. Years ago when I worked in Dreamweaver I found there to be a really good balance there of greater flexibility in my editing that I get often frustrated with using Catapult CMS.
> 
> The biggest plus to our work with Catapult has been the great customer service and ability to work with the developers. At one point when it was described to me the 58 step process (no joke - I saw the list) of publishing our monthly school board meetings, I analyzed where the bulk of those steps occurred and worked with a company developer to show him the problem and my suggested solution. Within a couple of weeks, an hour long process just to post the monthly agenda was down to 15 minutes.

### "Great website and content management tool" — 5.0/5

> **Sean** | *21 October 2021* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: CatapultCMS is intuitive and easy to use. Users can easily edit and add to their websites. The integration with mass notification and an app creates a powerful and integrated communication platform.
> 
> **Cons**: There could be more robust editing tools and it would be easier if all subpages were linked to the main page rather than having to link them as an external website. This would also make it easier to link the subpages back to the home page.
> 
> Communicating seamlessly and timely with all stakeholders in a way that they can all access.

### "A great software for someone with little experience" — 3.0/5

> **Amy** | *21 October 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that it is easy to use.  It is simple and easy to train additional staff if needed.
> 
> **Cons**: You are locked down to very limited templates and components.  It has a lot of clutter on the home page and not many options to remove or re-arrange how you want things to look.&#10;&#10;If you upload documents/images to one page, it does not carry over to other pages so you need to re-upload a lot of content.  There is no options to create re-directs or shorten URLs.  If you publish to preview only, the page publishes overnight so very difficult to work on pages and put them into the review.
> 
> Overall it has been good.  There have been ways I have found to work around the limited components available and the support team has been amazing.

### "Easy to use & stellar customer service" — 5.0/5

> **Michelle** | *29 July 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We switched from another educational website software company mostly because it was so difficult and cumbersome to use. Catapult is so user-friendly, making updates is very easy. And the customer service is amazing, every time. So responsive.
> 
> **Cons**: Only one editor can publish a section at a time. Doesn't integrate well with google calendar.  The horizontal banner is sometimes difficult when formatting images in the space.
> 
> Overall, our experience has been very positive. It is a pleasure to use the software and all interactions with customer service are great.

> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use&#10;Support is AMAZING\!&#10;Overall, its been a great product
> 
> **Cons**: Pictures are not as flexible to upload and size for users who are a little more tech challenged
> 
> Support is the best. Its great that they are constantly in touch with us to make sure we are doing ok and letting us know about new features.
