Agility vs. Squiz Digital Experience Platform

Agility is well suited for companies that want a balance of control and support. For major global site updates, these can be handled by Agility's support team, while minimal changes and updates can be performed autonomously by the company's own staff with ease. For companies that are interested in flexibility to reconstruct site structure or major global facelifts, Agility is less ideal because these changes must be handled and paid for through Agility support.

Working with a large amount of web content where there is a need to focus on related content.

• Unlimited Content Modules which are extremely helpful for file management .
• Unlimited number of API and Asset Requests
• File management among the CMS is extraordinarily useful as a hosting tool native to our web content

• Speed and efficiency
• Roles and content control
• Related content

• The filing system and search function are often difficult to navigate. Finding a file that I've uploaded isn't always easy to locate in Agility CMS
• The WYSIWYG content manager isn't always intuitive. I often have to go directly into HTML editing to resolve line spacing problems

• User Interface was good but heavy, with Java powering the backbone I recall finding this somewhat troublesome at the time.

I am not a part of this decision process at our organization.

I don't work with Squiz any more so it's difficult to say, that said, the site is still running on the same CMS so obviously it's still considered a great platform

Support is always available and responsive when we email, responding right away that they are on the case, even if they are unable to solve the issue right away. Support will usually find the issue of our problem quickly and require minimal hand-holding, direction, or re-explanation from our team. They are knowledgeable about the platform and our instance and are able to run diagnostics with minimal information from us. When issues are resolved they always request confirmation that things are working as expected before closing out our tickets.
