Everything You Need on One Platform

Our customers truly appreciate the value Liferay DXP provides out of the box as an alternative to Adobe Experience Manager (AEM). With a single subscription, customers get all the necessary capabilities to create one or more websites, add digital commerce, create customer service experiences, view analytics, and personalize digital experiences across channels, without having to pay more.

AEM is a premium-priced offering and part of a suite of products. Typically, this means you pay more initially and over time, sometimes even unexpectedly, since you’ll need to buy additional Adobe products when you want to build other digital experiences or add new functionality. You may also face the added complexity and cost of integrating all these different products—especially since many of them were acquired by Adobe over the years, and not initially designed to work together.

No Vendor Lock-In

AEM is proprietary software that is part of the Adobe Experience Cloud (AEC) product suite. As such, it can be difficult to swap out different tools with lower-cost alternatives or technologies you already own and would rather use instead. 

With Liferay DXP, you get a composable, open-source platform that gives you the flexibility to easily integrate different technologies, including your existing marketing automation platform, customer data platform, and campaign management software. Liferay DXP also offers flexible deployment options, including SaaS, PaaS, and self-hosted. 
A major telecom provider dealt with challenges like integration complexity, authentication difficulties, and vendor lock-in while implementing AEM. Now, this company has turned to Liferay DXP, saying, "We were thrilled with how easy it was to integrate third-party systems. Liferay's flexibility made the process seamless... Creating new pages was a breeze too. The interface was so intuitive, and we could quickly add, edit, and customize pages to fit our needs perfectly.”

Support the Entire Customer Journey

With out-of-the-box features to create and manage both anonymous and authenticated experiences, Liferay is a great choice when you want to move beyond a simple static site and expand the experience to include digital commerce and customer service, in order to support the full customer journey.

And when it comes to creating digital experiences for your business partners, dealers, distributors, or employees, Liferay ranks ahead of Adobe for the authenticated experience use cases. You can even design sites that empower partners, dealers, and employees to help customers find information, resolve issues, and get the most of your products and services.
