There was a degree of lack of transparency in terms of licensing model for DXP in the past. However, Sitecore are very receptive of this feedback and have taken steps to provide clarity through Partners or official Sales channels Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve been using the Sitecore Digital Experience Platform for many years, and one of its strongest aspects is how it supports the needs of all key stakeholders (marketers, customers, and developers) equally.

Sitecore DXP comes with all the features and tools required to build an experience that a customer desires. From Content Management to serving personalized content and all the Marketing automation features.
In addition the major plus of the core DXP product is its ability and ease to allow augmentation of existing features and integration with other platforms.Support team is amazing and great in responding to tickets in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its biggest positive is also kind of a negative where all the tools to support build experience have resulted in the core Platform DXP not evolving in the Content Managment experience. The improvements in Content Authoring experience have been on the back burner. Content Authors are a major voice when customers evaluate any big projects be it upgrades or transformation.
DXP being a monolithic product is complex to install and maintain.
Issues around tracking, session management and storage on the xDB have been a lingering cause of performance on websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The backend user interface is easy to use for our marketing teams, both in terms of basic content creation as well as some of the more advanced features that allow authors to personalize elements to different audiences.
As a developer, extensibility is a real strength of the product. If something is not available out of the box, then the steps required to customise a new feature follow similar patterns across the platform. There is also a large community of developers who love the product and are happy to help with any issues.
One of the main selling points is the ability to profile users as they navigate the site, then be able to target content accordingly. With such a diverse volume of data contained within a site, anything that can be done to help the user find the information they require is a real benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Over the last few years, there has been a large push to make the product more composable, but at the cost of further development of the original product. All products/features now come as new services or modules that need to be purchased at a significant cost. Whilst I appreciate they are a business and need to make returns on their investments, this leaves long standing customers who are not able to further invest; left with a product with less new features.

Composability enables us to bring our existing best in class stack and introduce new stack at will to accomplish our marketing goals. I like the simplified interfaces. We are a somewhat digitally immature marketing organization, and simplification for our designers, authors, agencies and marketing operations teams is an imperative.

The hard part with a fully customizable platform is how much and what to customize, and to not get too far away from OOTB (Out of the Box) - and how long it takes to spin up everything the first time, because there are a lot fo foundational decisions to make in the early going.

Sitecore is a complete platform with everything needed in one place. It has great content management features like workflows and version control. It also has powerful marketing features like marketing automation, forms, email campaigns, and personalization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- One problem with Sitecore DXP is that it can be very complicated, especially for new users.
- Setting up and customizing advanced features needs a lot of development work and can take time and money.
- Also, the cost of Sitecore licenses can be high, making it difficult for smaller companies with limited budgets to afford it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like best about the Sitecore Digital Experience Platform is the incredible strength and spirit of the Sitecore Community. The sense of union, the diversification of talents, and the dynamic participation of individuals worldwide create an environment where learning, collaboration, and problem-solving become easier and truly enjoyable.
Another remarkable aspect is the completeness and quality of Sitecore's DXP products. Sitecore offers an end-to-end platform that seamlessly covers content management, personalization, commerce, and analytics. The DXP solutions are robust, flexible, and continue evolving to meet the growing demands of digital businesses, providing a strong foundation for building impactful and engaging customer experiences. Additionally, Sitecore’s customer support is reliable and knowledgeable, ensuring that partners and customers feel confident and empowered at every stage of their projects.
Lastly, Sitecore's events like the Sitecore Symposium and SUGCON are true highlights of the year. These gatherings bring important product announcements and cultural celebrations of the Sitecore ecosystem. They provide invaluable learning opportunities, a chance to connect with peers and thought leaders, and unforgettable experiences that reinforce the power of community.

One aspect that stands out is the complexity and lack of clarity in Sitecore's licensing structure. Licensing can sometimes feel opaque, and clearer, more streamlined information would help partners, customers.
Additionally, although Sitecore has made noticeable improvements recently, the technology stack, especially on the front-end side, still has some distance to go to align fully with broader market standards. For many front-end developers who are used to modern frameworks and industry practices, transitioning into the Sitecore ecosystem can be challenging. Greater alignment with widely adopted front-end technologies would ease onboarding and help expand the pool of developers able to deliver solutions within the platform.

I work primarily with Platform DXP Products (XM, XP) providing support and development to Sitecore clients. As a developer, what I like best about Sitecore is its customizability and its community. I have never encountered a user request that I have had to tell them is impossible, but have instead always been able to come up with a creative solution made possible by Sitecore's flexibility, customizability, and huge wealth of community resources with Stack Overflow, blog posts, Slack, etc. There is also reliable customer support when we encounter uncommon issues.

The documentation for developers is comprehensive but can be very hard to find the relevant documentation you're looking for. Almost all the answers I need are ultimately found via Google on Stack Overflow rather than Sitecore docs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sitecore's Experience Platform is a robust CMS and digital experience product. And it's continually evolving in its features - delivering future-facing tools to web marketers. As a Sitecore product owner for more than 12 years, I have seen the product evolve and meet my daily marketing needs on the regular. Even now, it's integrating AI into the CMS system to help content editors with their daily content and marketing needs. In addition, the company continues to push the boundaries in enhancing its personalization, analytics and other web needs such as DAMs, Search and more. The possibilities that Sitecore provides to web marketers is endless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While anyone familiar with a content management system will be able quickly learn and use Sitecore DXP, it still requires a bit of a learning curve. The product's features are unique enough to require product owners to take learning classes, watch webinars or read blogs on how to most effectively use the product. The good side to this is that the Sitecore community is full of users that are generous with their knowledge sharing. There's a consistent and constant stream of information for product owners to review, learn and act upon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
