Have faced challenges with setup and pricing but have found flexibility and support helpful
Adobe Experience Manager needs more optimization. The frequency of components where we have vitals of a page or an app needs to be optimized because these are heavy Java codes along with some AEM developments. The code language should be optimized or they should have some string functions or web plugins to create a lighter version rather than implementing large amounts of code lines. They should start implementing industry best practices which are not currently offered. We perform our internal development for customization at our own pace. We have multiple frameworks that help us in various ways. We are advancing in terms of AI integration. We have already started our own POCs before Adobe implements these features.

Integration of diverse AI functions and adaptable features provides efficient operational solutions
From a client's perspective, I encounter several challenges when implementing new systems, and in my last role, they faced significant issues with their previous software. After assessing their situation, it was clear that continuing on their current path would lead to excessive costs. Recognizing that Sharepoint 2016 Standard could fulfill their needs efficiently, I engaged my team, and after seven months, we had a fully operational system in place. As a project manager, I design what I need from AI within Sharepoint 2016 Standard, knowing I always get good results. While the technical details may not be my forte, I have a network of strong experts working alongside me, making sure our processes succeed according to the plans I put in place.
