The W3Techs' latest content management survey reveals that Bitrix Site Manager ranked 13th overall by the number of installations among Alexa's top 1 million websites, outperforming most of its competitors including Ektron, EPiServer, Sitecore and Sitefinity. Also, the product perfectly fits in the popular web technologies landscape: it supports the most wide spread server-side programming language (PHP, 74,9%), web servers (Apache and MS IIS, 90,1%) and operating systems (Unix and Windows).
Importantly, Bitrix holds the third position among the most popular commercial content management systems, while other positions are taken by pure free open source solutions.

Bitrix Site Manager is mainly valued for its rich functionality, ease of use, built-in security framework and open architecture with its well-documented API and source code for development of business-specific features and integration with third-party applications. The product's other strong points are moderate pricing and transparent licensing policies which match SMB expectations.
