Migrating to XM Cloud

XM Cloud, the fastest-selling new product in Sitecore’s history, is the heart of our next-generation composable DXP. It’s a fully cloud-native SaaS CMS that allows users to create content and quickly deliver it across any channel. It offers a new approach to website creation, optimization, and content management. Headless architecture and robust publishing capabilities enable brands to instantly create and deliver engaging customer experiences while also managing their customer data consistently and efficiently.

Never upgrade again

Moving to XM Cloud means doing away with costly upgrades. You benefit from the latest functionality and features due to automatic updates rolled out by Sitecore, ensuring your website stays up to date with the latest industry standards and innovations. This results in improved user experience, increased efficiency, and the ability to leverage emerging technologies to stay ahead of the competition.

Lower total cost of ownership (TCO)

XM Cloud offers significant cost savings by eliminating investments in hardware infrastructure and reducing maintenance costs. Utilizing Microsoft Azure, Sitecore takes care of managing the infrastructure. XM Cloud eliminates the need for dedicated IT staff or developers to handle tasks like server management and software updates, leaving you to allocate your resources more effectively.

Scalability and security

By design, XM Cloud offers you scalability, allowing businesses to seamlessly adjust resources and accommodate varying content and user demands without disruptions or the need for significant infrastructure investments. This scalability empowers businesses to grow and adapt their digital presence. Moreover, XM Cloud incorporates robust security measures, safeguarding data and protecting against unauthorized access or breaches.

Ease of use

XM Cloud allows marketers to focus on message quality and targeted channels with zero worries and delays. Content creators can also visually author their digital experiences with an intuitive visual builder featuring high performance with headless architecture and front-end flexibility.

Every brand is on its own journey to the cloud and XM Cloud, and Sitecore is here to help you with your cloud transition. While every journey is unique, businesses typically fall into one of the following categories: those looking to update to a modern stack, those with an up-to-date stack that want to avoid the upgrade process, and those wanting to move their martech stack to the cloud. Each of these potential paths to XM Cloud is illustrated in more detail below.

If you don't see yourself in the above scenarios and have something unique to ask, our solutions partners and Sitecore services team can help. They have created an audit process to help you understand where you are today and will deliver a report detailing exactly what your approach should look like.

 When considering a move to XM Cloud, TCO and ROI benefits should be a key factor in your justification. Brands making the move are seeing a reduction in deployment efforts, reduced infrastructure costs, and faster time to market.
