OpenText WEM vs. Squiz Digital Experience Platform

OpenText WEM has helped us manage our websites with great efficiency for quite a long time now. They have comprehensive documentation and guides on forums to help you with integration and upgrading OpenText connect accounts. We've integrated WEM with Portal and TempoSocial to get out-of-the-box features like delivering news like a blog and administration of workflows from the duo package.

• User Interface was good but heavy, with Java powering the backbone I recall finding this somewhat troublesome at the time.

I don't work with Squiz any more so it's difficult to say, that said, the site is still running on the same CMS so obviously it's still considered a great platform

We have choosen OpenText WEM against other vendors because : 1. Helped client reinforce brand image
through unique design language and templatization of collaterals, consistent
messaging, and regular competitor benchmarking. 2. Enables lead generation through
high-quality gated collateral, product videos, etc. 3. Senior management and sales lead meet
client regularly for project review meetings and feedback on engagement
