    DotNetNuke - Any suggestions?

    Does anybody have any suggestions on DotNetNuke.
    Is it easy to use and install?
    Should I use it or not?

    I'll appreciate if I get any suggestion on it.

    Thanks, Pat.

        Without taking up too much of your time, could you give me a few highlights
        as to: why?

        I was just considering using DNN, but value your opinion as to why not to
        use it.

        Thanks,
        Brian

          It's written in VB.NET.

          It has a totally unnecessary 10-directory-deep application tree.

          Cryptic default rewriting scheme and modification is not very
          straightforward . The more often than not results in very low search engine
          visibility.

          Very awkward administration.

          It's almost impossible to modify DNN without a huge amount of work.
          Basically, if you want to deviate even slightly from the standard templates,
          you're in trouble. You can spot a DNN site at 100 paces, just like you could
          with a FrontPage site...

          Etc.

            i think DNN is best for use
            i think it have very firendly interface for admin and very easu to manage
            the content of your site
            i think the library of it is very classic and have high level standard
            i use it , and very enjoy it

                  I think it's a matter of taste... I just recently saw an example of a
                  corporate sites based on DNN (tarkettna.com, azrock.com). I think I
                  will never use it myself, but take a look at the links, you can do a
                  lot with it

                      i have many years of experience to work with CMS as a Programmer, What i
                      found DNN is the best that provides very strong backbone library structure
                      with exposing our customization with enhancement. I found most of DNN
                      clients are more then happy by fully editable and configurable CMS with
                      desired custom modules too. I really appreciate a effort that provided behind
                      development of DNN team.

                      Surely, i will suggest DNN for Content Management System

                      Thanks,
                      Jitendra
