Sitecore Named a Leader in Web Content Management Systems by Independent Research Firm

Sitecore Received the Highest Scores Possible in the Web Experience Management, Cloud, Structure, Site Search, and Service Partner Program Criteria

Sitecore, the global leader in digital experience management, announced it was recognized as a Leader in “The Forrester Wave: Web Content Management Systems, Q4 2018” report.ⁱThe report evaluated the 15 most significant vendors against 26 criteria. Sitecore earned the highest scores possible for eight criteria, including web experience management, cloud, structure, site search, commerce application, service partner program, developer program, and product customer count.

In its report, Forrester states, “Sitecore has made dramatic shifts in the past 18 months, including new executive leadership, a full embrace of Azure deployment, a return to midmarket focus, partnership with Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and an acquisition of a digital asset management (DAM) provider.” In addition, Forrester notes that, “Sitecore Experience Manager has recently brought CRM integration improvements, new AI capabilities, and Sitecore Experience Accelerator (SXA) upgrades. Sitecore’s current capabilities for developers are largely on par with expectations, but marketing features to integrate more content repositories via their Data Exchange Framework, and historically strong marketing features for personalization stand out.”
