Description

A testament to Symphony

When we first went to walk the client through Symphony's admin area, they were absolutely terrified. Several of them had been exposed to Joomla and Drupal, so they had a general idea of what was coming: another learning curve, another "whatever you do, don't accidentally click any of these or the site will break forever" situations.

After having them log in and click around (it took a few "don't worry, you seriously can't break this no matter what you do" assurances), they were absolutely floored. We were 3 minutes into the walkthrough and they were already 10 steps ahead of me, completely figuring out the entire system with minimal assistance in literally minutes.

People like things to be straight-forward, simple, intuitive. Symphony is all those things and more.
