Why django CMS 4.1

Mike Barrett
Mike Barrett - Founder and MD of Compound Partners Ltd

"Working with Django CMS 4 has been a game-changer for our django CMS-based JUMPSuite platform. Our clients demand content-rich websites that are easy to use and can scale to thousands of articles. Django CMS 4 is our chosen tool for this. The intuitive drag-and-drop interface has long made content management a breeze, empowering editors to create, modify, and organize content effortlessly.

Its seamless integration with the Django framework offers unparalleled flexibility, allowing us to build bespoke solutions and integrations tailored to our client’s unique needs. What truly sets Django CMS 4 apart is its robustness and extensibility. We have been using Django CMS 4's powerful versioning capabilities to extend our own custom apps.

The built-in multilingual support has been invaluable for our global projects, effortlessly managing content in multiple languages, streamlining our workflow, and ensuring consistency across different regions. The active community support and comprehensive documentation have been a lifeline, providing us with the resources and assistance needed to navigate any challenges and make the most of this powerful CMS. We re-launched our client Efficio’s website last year, one of the first to take advantage of v4. We simply couldn’t have done that without the support from the community.

Django CMS 4 has revolutionized how we approach web development, enabling us to create stunning, feature-rich websites efficiently, without compromising on quality or innovation. We have literally built our business on it."
