getpantheon

If you're start building new system, want to flexiable to customize the site and possible to use any programming language, I highly recommand getPantheon

  • Use open source "OpenAtrium", contains basic login, security, role, media & content management.
  • Fee to try it out.
  • Contains development, as DEV, Test, Prod Enviroment. 
  • Deploy code via SFTP or Git
  • Able to export Database and Files
  • You don't need to hander WebServer.

If you have money, getPantheon could let your start really quick to create a admin. The programming language is PHP.

 

getPantheon's DEV, TEST, PROD enviroment.
