“Tridion Leads in WCM For External Sites”

In the new report, Kyle McNabb, Senior Analyst at Forrester Research states: “ Tridion complements its strength in both content delivery and content management with a graphical, user-friendly tool set that allows content administrators and site managers to easily create and target content. Tridion also differentiates itself from other vendors with comprehensive globalization functionality, which allows its users to centrally administer Web sites in multiple languages.” 

The report shows that enterprises are looking for “systems that serve core operational demands…to help them manage and deliver content to targeted groups and individuals.” Forrester sees that “Increasingly, enterprises need globalization assistance as they look to centralize and streamline operations, all the while giving local marketing teams the flexibility they need to market to and serve local customers.” 

Forrester found Tridion “has established clear leadership in enabling organizations to manage and deliver persuasive content customer experiences. Tridion excels in personalization and multi-site and multi-language functionality.” Forrester states that Tridion now “leads charge into persuasive content” by offering site managers “powerful out-of-the-box functionality for creating personalized site experiences.” 

Pieter Varkevisser, Tridion CEO. “We, like Forrester, see that consumers and businesses have ever higher expectations and require their customer experience to be tailored to their specific needs and preferences. With the joint resources of Tridion and SDL we are in a prime position to capitalize on these market trends. We will make a difference in our global marketplace just as we help our customers do so in theirs.”

According to Forrester, enterprises have been “reinvesting in their Web initiative --upgrading or replacing their WCM systems.” The Forrester analysts see an “especially good fit between Tridion and buyers that have global Web site needs, want to implement personalized content on their Web sites and want to empower non-technical users to manage the site.”
