    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Frankly, I think it was just good luck that we had a developer who trusted the platform and recommended we use it!

    Much easier, less costly, and more value for the money. The support for the Acquia tools platform and operation are outstanding. Acquia has been a partner rather than a vendor.

    Honestly, Pantheon are a great provider too and momentum has a large amount to do with our retention here.

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    We chose Acquia for a much better UI that gave non-analytical marketers and easy to use tool where they could create their own reports. The campaign side of things also had an easier to use UI as well, that made the targeting of audiences much easier.

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Platform.sh is cheap and relatively easy to configure. The challenge they have when it comes to competing with Acquia is that they aren't a Drupal centric service, and don't have the same bench of Drupal products to offer, and don't have turnkey Drupal pipelines and support …

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Very convenient because it's a suite of products built to work together and Drupal is open-source. The AWS products are very similar, but I really appreciate the Cloud IDE.

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    we have used Pantheon in the past for some use cases but now we prefer Acquia over it the reason being the availability of different products to allow us to provide a complete digital experience. A product like a site factory, Acquia personalization, site studio, etc has really …

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Acquia Personalization integrates well with Drupal CMS and is more straightforward to implement than Salesforce Marketing Cloud Interaction Studio (Personalization). WordPress as a CMS hosted on WP Engine is useful, but much more limited than Drupal CMS hosted on Acquia Word…

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Drupal is Wordpress on crack. And using Acquia Digital Experience Platform is like using a managed Wordpress site: Most of the installation and maintenance is done for you.
    Incentivized
    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    We stay with Acquia because they offer managed updates to Drupal core. Not everyone does. And, they are experts in supporting Drupal. They can often get a little closer to the developer side of things than other companies. Prices and support are similar for similar services …

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    The customer selected Acquia since it had a better support for the US based laws (eg the PCI compliance).

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Acquia coupled with their easier interface and 24 x 7 customer service can outweigh its competitors anytime.
    Acquia provides a full end to end solution for Drupal websites.

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    The flexibility aspect of Acquia Site Studio is unmatched and WordPress does not provide it on a large scale. The ability to perform bulk operations and security are also the factors in favour of Acquia Digital Experience Platform as compared to WordPress. They also offer …

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Although Acquia Digital Experience Platform is an Enterprise solution like the others, it stands from competition because it relies on Drupal's Open Source community and is one of the first Cloud-native solutions so they're building on experience.

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Acquia is the go-to platform for hosting drupal sites.

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Acquia Cloud is more of a hands-off approach to Drupal hosting - get the code on the server and that's basically it. AWS on the other hand requires more specialized server and networking knowledge to support a site. Our company wants to focus on content deliver and not on being …

    Can't compare apples to grapes. But in terms of "Drupal specific" hosting at enterprise level as a PAAS solution I think Acquia is the only one doing it at this scale.

    Actually, Acquia Digital Experience Platform did not stack up against them, rather it was a great combination to implementing and configuring Cloudflare, the next generation Content Delivery Network (CDN) and different caching Architecture to embed with the Drupal Platform such …

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    We had some limitations with another provider: for example, multisite was not possible. We did not encounter any particular constraints with Acquia Cloud.

    Chose Acquia Digital Experience Platform
    Compared to other products used, Acquia Digital Experience Platform offers a good balance between configuration flexibility and hosting implementation. Some platforms provide a similar service where it takes away the need to build the hosting yourself, however, they don't allow …

    Acquia offers a much better page builder and personalization tool as native features than WordPress. Translation management is also a good feature from Drupal/Acquia, that is not managed well on WordPress.
