What is Adobe Experience Manager?

Adobe Experience Manager, part of Adobe Experience Cloud, combines digital asset management with the power of a content management system.

Adobe Experience Manager Sites is an AI-powered content management system built on a scalable, agile, and secure cloud-native foundation for creating and managing digital experiences across web, mobile, and emerging channels. Users can create content and manage updates with re-usable Content and Experience Fragments and deliver content using template-driven page authoring or a headless approach with GraphQL. Interactive WYSIWYG authoring of React- and Angular-based single-page applications (SPAs) is available using the JavaScript SDK. Experience Manager as a Cloud Service eliminates the need for version upgrades and scales within seconds to handle high traffic with guaranteed uptime SLAs of up to 99.99%.

Adobe Experience Manager Assets is a cloud-native digital asset management (DAM) system that enables the management of thousands of assets to create, manage, deliver, and optimize personalized experiences at scale. Users can create and share asset collections and connect to the DAM from within Creative Cloud apps using Adobe Asset Link. Assets uses AI and machine learning to automatically tag, crop, and manipulate images and video. It also offers rich media delivery, technology that automates the creation of unlimited variations of rich media from a single piece of content for various devices and bandwidths.

Additional Adobe Experience Manager applications that integrate with Experience Manager Sites and Experience Manager include Experience Manager Forms for responsive forms creation and Experience Manager Screens for digital signage.

My company utilizes Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) as a CRM for the company website. All images and content are stored within the DAM within AEM. All changes to individual pages are authored through AEM. Each business unit updates their respective site content or implements new components in an effort to launch new campaigns and site optimization.
  • Ease of image upload
  • Ease of content changes on the spot
  • Workflow systems for production
  • Allow all vested parties to a project to be notified once any changes occur to a page
  • Allow for paid media campaign management
Adobe Experience Manager is well suited for an integrated digital marketing team who works closely with digital agencies and IT.

Adobe CQ is used by the entire organization for document reference and employee information and interaction.
  • Handles huge content
  • Well managed content management system, easy to create and use custom templates and components.
  • User friendly interface for authors and developers.
  • Huge support with responsible mutimedia implementation
  • Out of the box (OOTB) component customization should be more versatile. Many time extending/overlaying components are faster but tweaking OOTB components are cumbersome due to the way the jsps and code is handled.
  • Can increase performance with huge content.
Adobe CQ is a very good product for huge content and fast changing content.
