Hilax Chamberlain - PeerSpot reviewer
Digital Marketing Manager at Ford Motor Company
Centralized content management has unified our digital channels and delivers consistent experiences
Adobe Experience Manager offers enterprise-level digital assets management and very robust customization, brand value consistency, and omnichannel delivery. It saves development and maintenance time. The digital asset management and omnichannel delivery features have benefited my team by managing our digital assets, ensuring brand consistency, and enabling us to deliver customized content easily to our clients. Organizing and obtaining information from results is beneficial. Strengthening our online experience as a brand is valuable. Easy integration with other Adobe services improves productivity and provides a smooth experience. Adobe Experience Manager has positively impacted my organization by enabling component and page reuse, which reduces application size. It saves manual effort for maintaining all applications, improves traffic, and ensures consistency across all our applications. It provides better security, scalability, and makes our applications more robust.
Raj Kumar Raju - PeerSpot reviewer
Associate Director, Digital Engineering at a outsourcing company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Centralized content governance has accelerated multi-channel publishing and empowered business teams
I wanted to highlight that Webiny Enterprise CMS Plus could be improved further by expanding its enterprise-grade analytics and reporting, providing more out-of-the-box integrations with commonly used enterprise platforms, and simplifying some advanced configuration and administration workflows. Enhanced documentation, migration guidance, and more pre-built templates for large-scale implementations would also help teams adopt the platform faster and reduce the learning curve. Another area for improvement would be making enterprise administration and governance even more intuitive, particularly for organizations with large teams and complex permission structures. More advanced workflow automation, stronger monitoring and observability capabilities, and additional AI-assisted content management features would further improve productivity. A broader ecosystem of integrations and clearer best practice guidance for enterprise-scale deployments would also make adoption easier. One additional area would be improving the overall enterprise user experience. A more intuitive administration dashboard, better deployment and migration tooling, and stronger monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities would make it easier to manage large-scale environments. It would also be valuable to have more detailed cost and usage visibility, stronger documentation for advanced enterprise scenarios, and more pre-built integrations with common enterprise identity, data, and workflow platforms.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The best feature is the experience fragment; if you want to replicate content across multiple websites with 1,000 or 20,000 pages, this feature helps accomplish it in a fraction of seconds."
"Over the past two to three years, the organization has grown rapidly with Adobe Experience Manager as a best and supportive tool."
"I've used several CMS tools, but Adobe Experience Manager is feature-rich, especially for web security and content management. It's more efficient to manage content on Adobe Experience Manager, and you can do a lot with it, such as updating content at any time, and on any platform, even from mobile or tablet. Adobe Experience Manager is still getting updated daily, and it's the best CMS tool in the market for me. I like that you can manage assets in Adobe Experience Manager. I also like that the solution has an analytics dashboard that shows you where the traffic comes from, how many clicks come from a specific location, the number of clicks and impressions, etc. Adobe Experience Manager can be accessed by other teams, for example, the digital media department of my company, so the solution can be used and updated per each team's requirement. Adobe Experience Manager is more than just a web developer tool, as it also allows visibility tracking and has other uses. I also like that the GUI for Adobe Experience Manager is straightforward and catchy. It has separate folders and icons, so using Adobe Experience Manager isn't tough. The solution is straightforward to use and handle."
"If you're looking for a .NET based CMS, do yourself a favor and go with an open source CMS."
"Adobe Experience Manager is pretty stable."
"It's a complete package. You don't need to look elsewhere for digital marketing."
"I like the profiling and segmentation."
"It helps us with analytics, application design for specific platforms, and enables us to easily create applications for iOS and Android."
"CMS Plus has impacted my organization positively because it gives us the ability to see growth and receive good customer feedback."
"Overall, Webiny Enterprise CMS Plus is a strong option for organizations looking for a flexible, cloud-native, headless CMS, with an API-first architecture, scalability, and content governance capabilities that are particularly valuable for modern enterprise environments."
 

Cons

"Adobe Experience Manager's pricing could be improved."
"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."
"There is a feature missing where if content is created on the UAT environment and needs to be transferred or synced to the production environment, there is no direct way of doing the sync."
"Tool-wise, the Adobe Experience Manager support team is not very responsive when the user face issues in AEM as a Cloud Service."
"I love DAM, but still think there are improvement areas."
"Even more out of box components, UI designs."
"A little bit of background knowledge of coding and website structure is required."
"Bug troubleshooting is challenging and requires developer expertise."
"I wanted to highlight that Webiny Enterprise CMS Plus could be improved further by expanding its enterprise-grade analytics and reporting, providing more out-of-the-box integrations with commonly used enterprise platforms, and simplifying some advanced configuration and administration workflows."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There's a free trial for one month for Adobe Experience Manager, which you can use for learning purposes, then, after the trial period, you'll need to purchase the license. Adobe offers a few plans for Adobe Experience Manager, but I'm unaware of how much my company is paying."
"It's really costly."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee to use the solution, which is highly-priced."
"It's a costly solution. I would rate the price at two out of five on a scale from one to five, where one is the most expensive and five is the most competitive."
