Sitecore’s DXP: Benefits & Considerations

Not all traditional content management systems (CMS) are equipped to handle the growing demand for better digital experiences. While traditional CMS solutions are readily available and effective at delivering content, they sometimes fall short when considering customer experiences. These systems were not created with the ability to integrate other enterprise-level solutions like ERP and CRM.

Digital experience platforms (DXP) address these challenges as they integrate with systems containing customer data. A DXP system can track customer engagements, which is crucial to personalizing digital customer interactions and experiences.

Websites with great digital experiences often compel customers to return again and again. Choosing the right DXP can be challenging, though, especially when vendors consistently refine their offerings.  Of several DXPs that can help improve a digital experience, this blog will explore why Sitecore’s DXP is a great platform to build on.

Sitecore’s Composable DXP

Sitecore’s newest offering is one where the foundation is composable, which means it’s adaptable and scalable. A composable DXP allows companies to choose from and integrate “best-of-breed” modules into their platform. They work together through API and microservices with a headless approach.  

Sitecore’s composable DXP easily allows this integration due to its composite infrastructure and can be considered the central hub of your business operations by merging with existing enterprise systems which could include email marketing, customer data platform (CDP), e-commerce, hosting, search, or a combination of many other products. The composable model allows you to choose which products you want to implement, and then only implement that capability when you are ready for it. This allows companies to implement a solution tailored to their needs and deliver a better digital experience for the clients.
