When migrating from platforms like Adobe or Sitecore to WordPress, a common question is around DXP alternatives. To us, the answer is clear—but it’s still worth addressing for those exploring their options. The answer is to compose your own best-of-breed open DXP with WordPress. Integrate the marketing automation, analytics, CDP, CRM, A/B testing and personalization tools of your choice with mature REST & GraphQL APIs and you are ready to go. We are always around if you want to discuss how.
Meanwhile, we hope you have checked out our OnePress framework to consolidate multiple sites like a centrally governed platform. We released OneUpdate for centralized plugin updates and OneDesign for centralized design management. More modules coming up in October. Keep an eye out for our socials.
Our latest case study on Pasqal, a quantum computing pioneer, is out now. It covers how we migrated Pasqal’s website to WordPress VIP, and turned it into a smart marketing platform with high performing page load times. With a customized drag and drop publishing interface using WordPress’ site editing capabilities, the marketing team can now publish in no time, without ever going off-brand.
GoDAM, our advanced video and media management plugin, now includes organization and team management with roles, permissions and multi-organization support. Alongside, GoDAM 1.4 release adds new integrations and features for likes, comments, video migration and custom thumbnails.
We recently launched a web-based control panel at EasyEngine with WP Cloud integration. If you are planning to offer WordPress hosting to your customers, get in touch, or directly meet our founder & CEO, Rahul Bansal at the upcoming CloudFest USA in November.
To get a better sense of our thinking and direction, check out the two podcasts Rahul recently featured on. On WP Legends, he discussed our journey and why contributions outweigh competition. On This Week in WordPress, he shared insights on GoDAM, scaling our WordPress practice, and rtCamp’s people-first culture.
