Acquia Digital Experience Platform: A Game Changer for Personalized Customer Engagement
We picked the Acquia Digital Experience Platform as our main content management system (CMS) and digital experience platform (DXP) that allows us to easily create, manage, and deliver digital experiences across multiple channels (web, linkedIn, email) and devices. It helped us to create engaging and personalized digital experiences for customers, manage and deliver content super easily, and integrate with other systems and platforms. We mostly used the platform for website development and management, digital marketing, customer engagement and quotation.
- content editing/updating
- trendy website design
- ease of use
- user management
- advanced web features (such as parallax scrolling)
- spam email filtering in forms
- live edit previews

Acquia DXP > Solid with room for growth
Score 8 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
This originally started being used primarily in marketing but is now used in our careers and community digital landscape. The platform allows us to focus on the content and design specifics and leave the technical platform administration to the Acquia Support team.
- Single, easy to use online dashboard to manage the applications.
- Easy to use drag and drop code deployment workflow within the platform.
- Simple support ticketing process allowing quick access to support and Technical Account Manager (TAM) resources.
- The monitoring report capabilities are still quite restrictive. Uptime and historical logs could be presented in a reporting structure in the dashboard. This would make the dashboard a single source of truth.
- Simpler SSL cert upload process. Instead of extracting the keys maybe a simple file upload process could work.

Acquia Cloud is a solid hands-off approach to Drupal Hosting
My company uses Acquia Digital Experience Platform Cloud as our website host for four of our sites. We are in the process of developing a 5th site which will also be hosted on Acquia cloud. Acquia Digital Experience Platform cloud take a lot of the support needs out of our hands so that we can focus on our teams' core competencies - site development and content. We have several sites not hosted on Acquia and they take far more time to maintain than our Acquia-hosted sites. I am used to having a more hands-on approach to server hosting (AWS, Digital Ocean, etc) so I personally struggle with the somewhat blackbox-iness of Acquia Cloud. At the same time, there are fewer opportunities to make a mistake affecting the server, so it's definitely a net benefit for our sites and their stability.
- Great Uptime
- Great Customer Support
- Simple platform interface
- Documentation
- Could use more configuration"recipes"

Easy deployment of Acquia.
I use it to host our main site. This is for hosting our internet presence and linking to other company-owned resources. Doing so allows us to right-size the operational requirements as well as enhance the offering to our clients.
- Hosting
- Building the right environment as per our needs.
- Customer support and engagement.
- Provide more training resources.
- Certification would be good to have.
- Monitoring updates.

- I'm trying to find ways to make the core and module updates simpler

Enterprise Grade Drupal Hosting
We use Acquia's DXP for our enterprise clients that have very specific or high standard requirements into regards of hosting and products. Clients that want an extremely flexible front-end we gear towards using Acquia Site Studio, while other use cases where a customer might want to launch 50 sites each year we gear towards Site Factory, sometimes even a combination of the different products and packages.
- High Availabillity
- Easy to use and understand UI
- Easy to self manage
- Modern approach with Cloud Next
- Support sometimes feels a bit like ping pong
- Real containerised hosting (currently you can only deploy code)

Allows for the creation of world class web sites
The tool is used to host 20+ sites for each directorate at OJP. The key problem the tool addresses is having a common code base, architecture, and infrastructure for all directorates. Prior to Acquia, there were several technologies used for hosting the sites which created difficulties in maintaining, staffing, and updating sites.
- Consistent user interface
- Uptime
- Robust logging and error tracking
- Provide a tier of service where Acquia provides a true PAAS rather than relying on the development team upgrade core components

My Acquia Digital Experience
Acquia Digital Experience Platform feature is very useful for drupal multi-site architecture, By using this platform we have delivered multiple sites within the shortest time. This platform simplifies the development process. Stagging down to other environments is a cool feature and additional supporting module for Acquia Digital Experience Platform helps to connect the platform with external applications with high-performance ratings.
- Multi site spinup using profile
- Inbuild cache mechanisam
- Neat user experience
- ACSF runtime system configuration not configurable
- Auto backup have no additional options
- stage up site is not there

Professional and efficient solution.
We use the Acquia Cloud platform to build website factories. Using Acquia Cloud ensures that the platform is fully optimized for Drupal. We also use Acquia Search to build features based on Solr. The available environments (non-prod and prod) allow us to have improved development workflow, and the drag-and-drop UI facilitates deployments and actions on the platform.
- Robust and scalable infrastructure.
- Acquia Cloud UI.
- Support
- I don't know.

Great product which offers a lot of flexibility
As a digital agency, we use the Cloud Platform service to host the websites of a large number of our clients. The service provides us with a straightforward and easy-to-set-up hosting solution that our developers can then use to deploy the websites with ease. The platform offers the ability to configure a lot of the internal tools used when hosting a website, and the support team is helpful and quick to respond when any issues arise.
- support team
- ability to configure parameters within the hosting setup
- dashboard for visibility of website environments and services with great UX
- ability to configure even more parameters for internal tools

Drupal Cloud on Acquia.
We host, deploy and support client sites on this platform.
- Quick deployment.
- Good support.
- Excellent documentation.
- I would like cleaner development environments. Sometimes several versions of software that are no longer needed can live on the servers. I believe that it would be possible to conduct an audit from time to time and delete unnecessary ones.

Great Drupal-based Platform for Website Management!
Since we launched the new LumApps website this year, we're using the Acquia Digital Experience Platform to manage and improve our website CMS: Drupal. We switched from WordPress to Drupal/Acquia in order to build a stronger CMS, for lead generation, but also on a daily basis use for all the contributors.
- Page builder with high flexibility
- Strong Deployment Workflow
- All in one CMS
- Easier database SQL queries
- Better updates regarding Transport Layer Security (TLS)
- Allow redirects by keeping UTM in the URLs

with great complexity comes great complexity
Acquia built and hosts the websites for our university library system -- at least 8 libraries under one umbrella. I QA'ed for the build team, and I maintain and enhance the site subsequent to build and launch. I use the Cloud Platform dashboard and the Cloud IDE, in conjunction with Github, to manage the configuration of the front end, while others are in charge of content.
- the site is powerful
- you can get very granular with configuration and content
- layout is very simple to execute, but it doesn't look simple on the front. it's simple to execute complicated things
- almost endlessly customizable with modules
- the support portal can be hit and miss. sometimes there are very helpful people who get back to you in a timely manner, but more often there's a lot of lag time for the ticket to get picked up and in between responses, which can also be less than helpful.
- it seems like the different departments within acquia (support, management, build teams) don't communicate with each other.
- because features are so dense and granular, sometimes the workflow or how they are connected can be really complex to access.

Perfect platform for large companies using Drupal
The web agency I worked for was using Acquia for several of our clients to host their Drupal site.
- Deployments on different environments are extremely easy
- Drupal site hosting
- Excellent technical support
- Performance
- The price can be high for a small business
Acquia Digital Experience Platform excels at delivering a trustable enterprise environment for open-source software. The tool suite makes it easy to empower everyone, from developers to IT professionals and marketers alike. Acquia Cloud takes away all of the hurdles in terms of platform management. It allows everyone to spend more time innovating and delivering value to the Drupal ecosystem rather than dealing with infrastructure and compliance. We love the intuitive interface of the platform and the extensive documentation.
- User experience.
- Feature completion.
- Platform onboarding.
- Security
- Deployment pipelines.
- Transparency of the pricing structure.
- Keeping up with the versions of some satellite system (ex. Solr).
- Some features that are "out of the box" on other platform are extras on Acquia.

Concierge-Style Hosting
We use Acquia Digital Experience Platform as the hosting platform for our enterprise website. Our website serves both branding and informational purposes, and it is critical that the site is stable and responsive. The site is a fairly complex drupal instance, and we use a variety of Acquia services to support site development, maintenance and delivery.
- Excellent, responsive customer support engineers
- Stable and effective hosting platform
- Helpful CLI and additional tooling for interacting with Acquia services
- I miss their old local development kit called DevDesktop. I wish they would bring it back.
- Some of their documentation is great, but some could use work.
- I feel that the options they expose for interacting with our site logs are not ideal.

Great for large, complex sites like ours
We use it to host the Drupal Content management system for much of our site. This includes thousands of pages.
- Low Down Time
- Excellent Tech Support People
- Good administrative interface
- They replaced Acquia Dev Desktop with Acquia Cloud IDE which doesn't let you set up as many instances of Drupal.
Acquia is our SASS solution for Drupal 7 powered websites, landing pages and webtools. Our prospect facing website and internal facing websites both utilize the Drupal 7 framework that Acquia hosts. In addition our SEM efforts, RFI forms and other marketing communication is on the platform. Acquia has performed consistently well.
- Dependable Update
- Knowledgeable Customer Service
- Functionality seems designed for larger enterprise organizations
- Interfacing tools are sometimes more complex then similar cloud hosted services such as Azure or AWS
