The CMS has evolved into a great tool. However compared to our Wordpress or Shopify website builds, we cannot provide our clients with a staging version to fully test major changes. It is easy to proof a page or a module. But if you are launching a multi-page section that should be tested in the full website environment, good luck.
Content staging is very useful, but its not a full staging environment. You cannot test changes in global modules, navigation, ETC.
The sandbox in enterprise doesn't copy everything. So it would take a lot of time and manual work to do a clone and keep it updated for the client to test.
We definetly NEED a good test environment where we could test the whole website with those changes in an more efficient way.
I'd love confirmation that this is on the roadmap for at least Enterprise and hopefully CMS Pro as well.
