- Content Management with Control
Contribute is a great tool for content management on web sites by clients. It provides a lot of control and protection of site structure and is simple to use. Integration with Word and Excel are excellent tools.

I would like to be able to control access on a page-by-page basis instead of a folder-by-folder basis. But I can work with the current situation.

- Do NOT buy this product!
The company I work for uses this product from time to time on sites. I would not recommend this product to my worst enemy. This product only brings pain and frustration.

If you are looking for this level of maintainability, please hire a real web developer to solve this problem for you. At least then there is a good chance you will get what you want.

I have been working with this product since version 2.0 and now they are up to 4.1. The only thing that has changed in those 3 years is that they added blogging to the application, which none of our clients have used. This application is slow and very buggy. It always has been. It has been over a year and this product has not even been updated.

I have used this product on large sites and small sites. Large as in 500 to 10,000 pages and small 1-25 page sites. If this is all that you can afford, then note that it might get the job done but it will not be a pleasant experience. When you can afford it please have a small web team or someone you know move you to an Open Source CMS (e.g. WordPress, Drupal, TypePad, Joomla!, etc., which are free)

This product had a lot of potential but was never given enough attention from Macromedia/Adobe to make it great.

- Works as advertised. Easy to Use
Great product. Ease of use was the most important factor for user satisfaction. As advertised, Contribute makes editing web pages extremely simple. It functions as advertised with no problems editing the target site.

- Buggy and not worth the price
I chose to use Contribute because it works more consistently with Dreamweaver CS3 than other free software, and I'm picky about subtle layout issues. However, other than its compatibility with Dreamweaver layouts, Contribute has little to offer over similar software that you can get for free.

Contribute has crashed and caused major operating errors four times in the past thirty days.

I can't get contribute to allow users to preview sites when they are working offline. Contribute likes to connect directly with the server hosting the website, and it gets cranky when you try to design pages offline and then let someone else upload them after review. It controls the workflow too strictly - greatly increasing the learning curve with this product.

My staff has used Contribute to destroy several pages on websites. For reasons that no one can explain or predict, it occasionally rewrites all the links from existing resources to temporary files on the working computer. The result is that the page looks fine while you are working on it, but when you upload it, all the image links and hyperlinks are broken.

When you paste text into Dreamweaver, Dreamweaver applies the appropriate cascading style sheet. Contribute carries over formating from the source document. I've had it a month, and I haven't figured out how to make it work with Cascading style sheets.

I recently paid for it, but wanted to get the box because the software takes like four hours to download (the free software which is more functional, easier to use, and more stable downloaded in a matter of minutes: Nvu). Since I bought it, I thought I should be able to receive the product key to unlock the trial version on my computer. They said they would give that if I paid to re-download it, but they would not give that if I paid for a box. I called customer service and was put on perpetual hold. I e-mailed customer service. Two days later, Ahrie, a technical support engineer, e-mails me back saying I should call customer service and that he hopes that advice helped.

I am disappointed with this product and disappointed with Adobe customer service. Try Nvu first.

- Website control!
I have found this to be a great tool for modifying my website and giving me full control over the content. Its very easy to install and use although I'm still learning some more of the finer details. This product works great with an existing website and I would recommend web designers who work with Dreamweaver to tell their clients about it so they can give them full access to the content of the site without altering the design. I am certainly having fun with it! [...].
