Cloud enterprise CMS - Benefits of moving to AEM by Shankar krishnan

Abstract

With the world moving to cloud services, a cloud-based enterprise Content Management System (CMS) is crucial to the smooth performance of daily content tasks and actions.

An Enterprise CMS essentially allows the team to manage the entire lifecycle of every piece of content through one shared dashboard. Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) is a modern, cloud-based platform that allows you to develop, personalize, and publish engaging experiences across channels. AEM is typically used to deploy Adobe Experience Cloud (AEC) content and assets and supports a variety of contexts such as websites, native applications, and mobile applications.

Before we deep dive into why you should prefer AEM over WordPress, Let’s look at a few of the disadvantages of WordPress.

What does WordPress Lack?
WordPress is a popular CMS that has many features that help enterprises set up a CMS system. However, its lackings make it difficult to scale and less flexible for businesses that exist in super dynamic industries. Here are a few limitations:

Single-channel content distribution: WordPress does not allow enterprises to deploy content for multiple channels in one go. This means that if you have a website that requires curated content to go out on all types of devices without any issue, WordPress may not be the best choice.
Basic analytics: This platform only allows for basic user insights to be captured even with multiple plugins in place. Hence, it does not give you advanced insights into who is consuming your content and what their interaction is.
Limited access: WordPress requires multiple approvals to be given by network admins before a content piece is published. This implies a lack of automation when scaling and a long process of content development to publishing.
Low flexibility of integrations: Integrations or plugins on WordPress are generic and lack flexibility in case you want to create custom integrations. In the long run, this again implies low flexibility while scaling website operations.
