Is it worth using modX?

Question

MODX

The customer has an old site on modX. Asks for a new design.
1. Does it make sense to offer him a move to another CMS (for example, to Opencart)?
2. I am not familiar with modX, but the fact that it stores the page code in the database and for a new layout it is necessary to work in the site admin panel is scary. Or am I just missing something?

Answer 1

modX is cool, modX has a community, screencasts, watch videos, read documentation. And in which CMS you do not need to work in the admin panel? modX is cool, google it.

Answer 2

Site on ModX are cooler than sites on WP or Joomla.

Answer 4

I don't like that it is necessary to typeset in the admin panel

Answer 5

Little information on the site. But most often you don't need to change the CMS. MODX is a good move. And at the time of development, you can move the scripts to files.

Answer 6

If the site is a store, then it makes sense to transfer it to special. engine. And so, there Bitrix will fix the template in the admin panel and everything will go to hell. Encodings...
