The company I work for wants to add blogging functionality to our website, and they were hoping to spend a huge amount of money to create shit on top of the CMS they bought (sitecore). I pointed them to the Telligent Community Server, and we had sales like the meeting today to get marketing managers to work. My question is: does anyone have problems with the community server, scanning it and expanding it?
I wanted to explain a little why I think of Community Server, the company wants several blogs with several authors. I want to get out of the admin part as much as possible, and did not think that too many engines that have several blogs do not mean db's work. I also like the other features that Community Server provides and thinks the company will find it useful, especially in the media section, as right now we have a really awesome way to handle documents, etc.
edit: We actually use the Sitecore blog module for one blog on our intranet (this is actually what the CMS uses). Some arguments in favor of why I don’t like this for our publicly available site, they are on different servers, they do not support several authors, there is no built-in syndication, I’m a little uncomfortable looking at the source and I personally think that other functions of Community Server make it value valuable.
another edit: you need to stick with the .net software that runs on the sql server in my company case, but I don't mind seeing recommendations for others. ExpressionEngine looks promising, will try it in my personal box.
