Answer» AEM (Adobe Experience Manager) and Sitecore are two of the most popular enterprise-level CMS (Content MANAGEMENT systems). Below are some key DIFFERENCES between Sitecore and AEM that will help you determine which is best for your business. AEM vs Sitecore: | AEM | Sitecore |
|---|
| With 9 different product offerings, AEM has separated several marketing features like analytics and campaigns into SEPARATE "products" for purchase. This is great for those who just need one feature, for example, Adobe Analytics, but if you want the full marketing package from Adobe, you have to buy those features separately RATHER than as part of one package. | There are four different products offered by Sitecore under the "Sitecore Experience Cloud". Only offering four platforms is wonderful because it packages up features so that they do not need to be acquired separately, and it also saves TIME and resources in configuring all the platforms to work together. | | With Adobe having acquired a number of different systems, Adobe Experience Cloud is comprised of different languages and databases. From a development standpoint, this is challenging since developers are likely to encounter issues while trying to build across multiple platforms and languages. Development for Adobe can therefore be more time consuming, costly, and complex. | All of Sitecore's products are built on top of the ASP.NET framework. It is easier, flexible, and more cost-effective to develop on Sitecore, and having .NET expertise is sufficient to develop across all platforms. | | Adobe's community and partner network are significantly less developed than Sitecore's and do not actively encourage community participation. | As a result of its active and large partner network, Sitecore users are rewarded for their contributions to the Sitecore community through incentives and discounts. |
