I like best about Adobe Experience Manager is how it brings everything together in one place. Managing content across different channels AEM makes it much easier. The drag-and-drop features are intuitive, and even non-technical team members can jump in and get things done without always relying on developers.

What I dislike is how steep the learning curve is when you first get started. It can feel really overwhelming, and getting everything set up properly almost always requires a dedicated developer or specialist. On top of that, the cost is quite high compared to other management tools out there, which makes it hard for smaller teams to justify. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s a lot to appreciate, but what really stands out is the impressive combination of power and structure it offers. The DAM + Sites workflow is a huge time-saver, as it keeps assets, pages, and components linked together rather than scattered in separate silos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is something I have experienced frequently—the gap between the platform’s potential and the effort required to realize it. Nothing is truly plug-and-play. Even making straightforward changes often demands the involvement of developers, extensive configuration, or working through layers of Adobe 'best practices' that seem more like hurdles than helpful advice.

I struggle with the complexity, and people who aren’t from a web development background suffer a lot with it too. Visibility is limited at times, and budget can also be an issue.

I use Adobe Experience Manager for all of Southern Company's external facing websites. I appreciate how it creates an alignment with all of our operating companies. I really like the global templates as they relate to our brand guidelines and governance. The CSS templates allow us to customize the user experience across our entire enterprise.

With a large organization, pricing can be a factor for some of our smaller operating companies. The initial setup was challenging at first as we were looking for a one-stop solution for both internal and external web. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me, one of the biggest benefits is the flexibility to build and update pages without relying so heavily on the technical team. Being able to drag and drop components, edit content directly in the view, and publish with a couple of clicks makes the workflow much smoother. Reusable components and templates keep everything organized and consistent, no matter how many people are involved in content creation. Furthermore, integration with other Adobe tools like Analytics and Targe makes closing the content lifecycle much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Adobe Experience Manager mainly to create sites and update content in the DAM. I really like the time to market efficiency with the CMS.

I like that Adobe Experience Manager allows me to create versions.

It also allows me to load content for our internal company website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't understand why things are never in alphabetical or numerical order. I also don't like when I open something and I want to go back to exactly where I was - it doesn't work that way. Not good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
