Overall Satisfaction with Sitecore Digital Experience Platform

My teams and I leverage Sitecore DXP components for customer engagement, content operations, content management, commerce, search and personalization. We address common business problems leveraging the technology that include maximizing conversion, fast tracking content operations and discoverability.

Pros

  • High quality content management functionality
  • High quality visual component governance and syndication functionality.
  • Flexible and high quality digital asset management capabilities.
  • Strong search functionality.
  • Flexible eCommerce capabilities.

Cons

  • Sitecore could supply their own front end hosting cloud OOTB as a turnkey option for XM Cloud.
  • Sitecore Content Hub (DAM) could have additional functionality to be more comprehensive as a campaign operations tool for multithreaded campaign management.
  • Sitecore Order Cloud is SO flexible (is it too flexible?) that an OOTB implementation could be more opinionated and easier to stand up from scratch.
  • Once stood up, the framework is easy to leverage a component library hence providing great reusability and positive ROI.
  • Being able to publish content in self-service capacity (pages, content, campaigns, etc) without having to involve a SDLC has had a positive effect.
  • Content bundling in Content Hub has proven to have a strong ROI for ease of content management and syndication across multiple engagement channels.
It's extremely usable. The only reason it is a 9 instead of a 10 is that sometimes components can be difficult for end users to find due to its flexibility. Otherwise, it's extremely usable.

Sitecore XM/XP or XMCloud are great solutions for building high performing, well governed web sites. Whether you want to leverage an onPrem (private cloud, PaaS) implementation or a SaaS implementation, Sitecore can be a great solution for you. It has strong access controls for user accounts and permissions for content editing, approvals and workflows and permits complete flexibility with regards to design of a UI laying on top of the framework. It has strong MVC and Headless design patterns from a coding standpoint and the two can be used in parallel for different use cases required in today's web world.
