Sitecore CMS is based on .NET technology. Comparatively, Sitecore is better than a large number of other .NET-based platforms, such as OpenText or Sharepoint. Like any software implementation,  Sitecore implementation can also be time-consuming and expensive. However, it doesn't have to be complex. The following are some key points as part of the implementation process.

• Identify Implementation Type: A CMS implementation may involve a complete redesign or maybe more of a re-platforming. It is beneficial to MEET with your stakeholders before implementing to determine what is best for your business.
• Prepare Implementation Document: As every Sitecore implementation is unique, you should create an architecture document that outlines your requirements and provides stakeholders with an overview of the PROJECT. This will prevent any unpleasant surprises in the future.
• Set up a timeline: If you want your Sitecore implementation to succeed, you need to set a timeline.  This will give you a rough estimate of how long the project will take and will also help you plan for any downtime that may occur.
• Outline Expectations: Together with a timeline, you can outline what to EXPECT during the implementation process. Using a CMS like Sitecore won't instantly solve all of your business's problems and it also doesn't mean you can use all of its features. The most valuable thing you can do when you start is to know what to expect and what limitations you might face.
• Be aware of Costs: Costs can be high when implementing Sitecore. It is essential that you have a clear understanding of the project costs as WELL as the features and functions that are most important to your business.
• Implementation Process: Finally, your implementation partner will walk you through the entire implementation process. In addition to the timeline and costs, any additional resources and personnel required will also be considered. In addition, it will outline the steps that will be taken by teams working together and which project management style will be used to implement the changes, either waterfall or agile, or any other.
