Final Verdict
0/100
A digital monument to Italian bureaucracy that loads slower than a regional train in August and has more layers of Adobe Experience Manager bloat than the actual rail network has tracks.

The first thing I see is a cookie banner that takes up 60% of the screen, proving that RFI values 'Legal Compliance' far more than 'Letting People See Information.' The design is a beige-and-blue corporate fever dream that screams 'I was approved by a committee of 47 people who all have fax machines.'

You're running on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), the enterprise equivalent of trying to drive a locomotive through a shopping mall. With a DOM size that probably exceeds the number of stations in Lombardy and enough clientlibs to choke a fiber optic cable, it’s a miracle the page finishes hydration before the next PNRR deadline.

SEO

Your meta title is literally just 'Rete Ferroviaria Italiana'—so descriptive, I almost forgot which country I was in. Your meta description starts with 'RFI è la società del Gruppo FS...' which is the SEO equivalent of reading a tax return to a first date. It’s functional, but it has the charisma of a damp ticket stub.
Generic Meta Descriptions
Copywriting

You actually have the audacity to use the headline 'Siamo il cuore pulsante del Paese' (We are the beating heart of the country) while your regional trains are still stuck in 1994. The site is a graveyard of PDF downloads with titles like 'Deliverable D 4.2'—because nothing says 'modern infrastructure' like making users download a 40MB file to read three paragraphs of text.
Corporate Buzzword Bingo
Trust

I trust you because you're a state-backed monopoly and I have no choice, which is the best kind of trust. The SSL is valid, but the 'Investimenti PNRR' section feels like a high-budget gaslighting campaign designed to make us believe the Salerno-Reggio Calabria line will be finished in our lifetime.
