Feature stapling vs Site Definitions


I curious of what you’re experiences are one the user of site definition compared to feature stapling. In a video on Channel 9 Ted Patterson explains that feature stapling is the way to go. It would be nice to know of some experiences other SharePoint experts have.

Are you all using Feature stapling or are there areas where Site Definitions is a better choice?


Solution

  • For me it purely scenario dependent Feature stapling is good if we have to work on some existing site definition like third party or OOTB. but if its a custom solution or my own custom product based on SharePoint i would still like to go with site definitions
