Senior Developer
Hosting complex global sites has ensured reliable 24x7 delivery for worldwide audiences
The support usually worked quite well, but the problem that led us to shift to another platform was also in support, as the quality of service degraded at some point, which became a bit of a problem. Initially, we received really good support in various cases, but it became unsatisfying when we couldn't find clues on particular issues, repeating multiple times. That was the reason to move away at some point, or at least one of the reasons. Our customer project had to be moved from Acquia Cloud to another service, which was dictated by multiple reasons, with one being the price and another being a degrading quality of service. I wish that this quality wasn't falling down and that we would continue the partnership. I am talking mostly about Acquia Cloud and I am not quite sure if it overlaps with Acquia Digital Experience Platform (DXP) because when I see what is mentioned as DXP on Acquia's website, it seems to be a bit different kind of thing, reminding more of no-code, low-code solutions. For Drupal, I believe it is one of the best solutions you may have if you have a considerable contract with Acquia and you agree on the price.

Customer journey insights have guided UX changes and now streamline our digital decisions
The best features ContentSquare offers include heatmaps, PII masking, GDPR compliance, good performance, and customer journey analytics. The feature that has made the biggest difference for my team is that ContentSquare is now a step ahead of the competition since it delivers insights based on predefined business KPIs and customer journeys that we have set up. We can also segment our traffic and easily shift through the many recordings, finding the ones that match our lookup criteria. The new non-flash interface is clean and simple to use and has all the functionality centralized. ContentSquare has positively impacted my organization, and it has helped us to integrate with analytic and optimization solutions and also helped us in identifying barriers in the customer journey.
