Acquia cited for platform extensibility for scale and receives highest possible marks in the architecture, developer support, partner ecosystem, and global delivery strategy criteria
Acquia, the digital experience leader, today announced it has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Content Management Systems, Q3 2023 Report. The report evaluates 10 content management system (CMS) providers based on 26 criteria focused on current offering, strategy, and market presence.
According to the report, “Acquia performs the strongest in low-code/no-code, translations for global content deliveries, and back-end extensibility — all supported by strong practitioner and developer programs.” The company earned the highest possible scores in the architecture (extensibility and configuration), practitioner and developer communities, partner ecosystem, and global delivery strategy criteria.
The Acquia content management platform is based on Drupal, the leading enterprise, open source CMS and the foundation of Acquia’s digital experience platform, Acquia Open DXP. Drupal allows teams to rapidly create digital experiences for websites, commerce sites, mobile applications, digital signage, intranets, headless applications, employee experience applications, portals, and more. Acquia is the largest corporate contributor to Drupal and the top provider of hosting solutions and services for Drupal applications.
“Today everything is moving to digital,” said Dries Buytaert, Creator and Project Lead of the Drupal CMS and Co-founder, Chief Technology Officer, and Chief Strategy Officer at Acquia. “To break through the noise, brands must craft and deliver remarkable digital experiences that make a difference in their customers’ lives. This means marketing and developer teams need to think about their technology in a different way. For us, the Forrester report demonstrates the strength of Acquia's current offerings and how major brands are using them to create productive digital experiences today, and how Acquia’s vision will allow us to continue to provide the best solutions to enable customers to succeed in the future.”
