### "Very useful but transformed to be prohibitively expensive "

July 29, 2019

5.0

Was great, but pricing forced us away from the product.

Pros

It was the best tool I've ever found to make dynamic forms

Cons

It used to be included in acrobat but was transformed in to a 5-figure product, way too expensive for a small business.

### "Adobe Experience Manager"

March 30, 2021

5.0

Overall I have had a fair experience with Adobe Experience Manager. Our employees use adobe every single day so it needed to be managed.

Pros

I would say this software works great. The Manager function works as it should. Easy to manage and find what needs to be found.

Cons

One thing I do not like is if as the manager of the software I need to cancel one subscription it will not just cancel it. It will put the subscription on hold and wait to assign it to someone else. I had to try and get a hold of someone on support to remove the subscription so we don't get charged another monthly fee.

### "Reliable enterprise content management"

April 1, 2019

4.0

Pros

The flexibility that we get with AEM is great. The types of template and pages options that we get provide us with great features to be able to build custom content and pages well.

Cons

The learning curve of AEM can be a little overwhelming due to the myriad of options that it provides.

### "Adobe Experience Manager"

November 13, 2018

4.0

Adobe Experience Manager let us put some of our past concerns past us. We no longer have security issues like we had experienced in the past.

Pros

The features of the Adobe Experience Manager is what sets them apart from the competition! Although fit more for the enterprise level, it offers much more than competitors can.

Cons

Price point is high, however extremely worth the price if it fits in the budget.

### "Ultimate way to organize media"

May 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

This thing is powerful and can handle so many things I can't list them all. If you use Adobe software and have lots of files, you owe it to yourself to check AEM out and how it can help your company.

Cons

Because it can do everything under the sun, it's hard to navigate and difficult to see all of it's functions. The support contract is almost as much as the software

### "Powerful, but you have to learn how to use it"

November 14, 2017

4.0

Pros

What we primarily use this for is to create forms. This is great and offers a lot of flexibility in creating exactly what we what. There are a lot of validating and math functions that makes this a useful tool.

Cons

Granting rights to write onto the form you output is difficult. It does not work with some iOS platforms. Learning how to use the software can be incredibly frustrating.

### "Working within AEM allowed for fast and effective publishing"

December 6, 2017

4.0

So much of the website could be updated with new content in a timely manor with a relatively small team managing the builds.

Pros

I used this tool on a daily basis at my last job for 2 and a half years. The templating options allowed our company to work within a standard set of page layouts that helped streamline the page builds and keep the site w/in brand standards.

Cons

From time to time some of the page templates seemed to be a bit buggy and not perform normal functionalities.

### "Experience Asset Management - You can count on !"

April 11, 2021

5.0

To set up an online business - this is one of the best tools which can be used since most businesses are now going online - I would highly recommend Adobe Experience Manager.

Pros

The Adobe experience manager is a must, especially the experience asset management which uses the Artificial Intelligence (AI) power to get the best results for your business. It allows for business specific texts which makes your work easier. From the viewpoint of the user, you do not have to crop images, that is done automatically for you which projects the image under the best light for a better imapact.

Cons

It can be quite challenging at times to use. However, once you start using it, it gets easier.

### "Adobe Aem Review "

December 6, 2016

4.0

Overall I would say king of CMS in the market now. Hard to understand and implement. You have to go by convention then and then you will get desired results.

Pros

Configuration based Java based OSGi services Extensible components Salable Use either MongoDB or tarMk

Cons

Steep learning curve Preliminary knowledge of Java is required Oob components are poorly designed

### "AEM is so helpful"

April 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love using this tool to create all of our website updates. It's so simple, almost anyone can learn to use it.

Cons

Sometimes when I activate changes to my account, it takes several attempts to get the new text/images to appear on our live site. The DAM usually takes a long time to load, too.

### "Enjoyed the functionality and customization"

September 8, 2020

4.0

I think the forms that I was able to create with AEM were great. The software I now use doesn't have the same customizable features, and I miss them. I feel that the forms I create now don't look at good.

Pros

I really liked how much I could customize the forms I created.

Cons

It took a lot of training and practice to get good at using the software.

Switched from
