Chose Jahia Digital Experience Platform

Chose Jahia Digital Experience Platform
Liferay was our previous CMS, and while it had some perks it was old and slow (we lived with an outdated version). Jahia Digital Experience Platform and Liferay are very similar from an architecture standpoint and that's why we switched to Jahia Digital Experience Platform. …
Jahia goes head-to-head with other leading DXP platforms. We found it had the features our customers prioritized without overcomplicated interfaces and implementations. We work with clients who have built out other DXPs in ways that are cumbersome and even painful to maintain …
Jahia Digital Experience Platform is a good alternative to other CMS especially on the performance side. It is as easy to use as more common CMS. The installation is easier than an equivalent WordPress environment.
Compared with its free competitors, which are developed by developers all over the world, Jahia has complete control over its DX product, which makes it extremely stable. Bugs are under control and the few that do occur are quickly corrected. The same goes for the modules. They …
Jahia is more cost effective and catered to our inhouse development skills. The multi-site support is also very enterprise and organized which allows for us to manage our client relationships with ease when it comes to the web and content. The main driver for our selection was …
Jahia is more ergonomic and easier to use. Integration with other applications is facilitated by its modular design and its development in the java language.
Sales and engagement swayed us to purchase Jahia Digital Experience Platform. Personally, I would have gone with Sitecore Experience Platform due to the tech stack. Sitecore Experience Platform never provided anything but a canned demo. Jahia Digital Experience Platform …
It was already used when I arrived at this job, so I can't say I [picked] this software. However, I used it 10 years ago, and I can see that they really improved the solution, and the interface is much more enjoyable now.
These are the four we traditionally see still. Jahia ranks high when we have a client not needing the brand awareness of Adobe. Not wanting the .Net of Sitecore, and not wanting the PHP of Acquia.
Jahia relies on the Java technology. WordPress is based on PHP. The communities are quite different. The WordPress community is bigger but more for web designers as Jahia is more for developers.
As we wanted more customization capability, we chose Jahia because it appeared to fit better in this aspect with its capacity for personalization. The intuitive interface of Jahia also caught our attention since it would be easier for other users in the company to adapt to the …
Jahia provides a more user-friendly and easy interface. Content contribution, editing and specific role-based security on contents can be easily implemented.

Chose Jahia Digital Experience Platform
The capability to build complex applications with multiple products (better, more complete stack) separates Jahia from the others.
Jahia compares favorably against products like Acquia and Sitecore. Each has their pros and cons. Jahia tends to outperform the competitors in the areas such as ease of integration, contextual content edit experience, and price. Jahia is also very well suited for Java-centric …
Liferay is a good product with a broad community and a strong integration capability but a weak contribution interface and no website management easiness.Drupal is good for simple website needs, with a very large community and modules. But it's architecture is too unstable, …
Jahia is flexible and customizable so it allows its users to develop different of pages. However, such work requires additional resources and expertise of third party professionals. Other products I used have been more self sufficient by providing a high range of tools, …
Jahis is much more powerful than other CMSs that I have used in the past. It is more customizable and more user friendly than WordPress and I think that is a great accomplishment.
In my experience, Jahia Digital Experience Platform as a CMS platform is excellent when you have a large amount of content that needs to be customized. It is also good for when you have templated content that has minor variations. I would say it is less appropriate when the content has numerous mathematical computations, or a large amount of business logic that comes into play with data processing.
It lacks the ability to manage multiple versions of a page or content in general.
The back office interface sometimes encounters bugs or display problems.
It's difficult to keep pre-production sites up to date in terms of content compared to production, because the time required to import/export sites is very long once the site is rich in content.
I would not use Jahia as it proved too complex for our needs and didn't help our over goal of customer satisfaction. Along with the man hours to build and execute, it wasn't worth the hassle
The interface and ergonomics are designed to facilitate the use of the product. The creation of template is easy which allows to minimize the actions necessary for the provision of content.
[I give it this rating because it] was up most of the time. There are so many scheduled reboots that I don't think it would be a good choice for a 95% SLA.
As I was saying, the support makes sure to be available for any question, or any technical point that we may need to discuss about. Moreover, whenever we have an issue with the platform they get alerted and also send us an email so that we are aware. We had multiple complex topics to work on in the past, but they always have been answering our question
Jahia provides a similar user experience to other CMS I have used in the past - it features a simple interface that makes navigating and learning how to use the platform easy and the ability to copy and paste content saves time and effort when building new pages. The ease in which you can manage the site in different languages is also a big plus!
