Challenges with Adobe Experience Manager

While highly capable, Adobe Experience Manager's complexity and cost can be significant barriers for smaller businesses. It can also be very, very slow if not set up correctly.

The platform requires substantial investment in both licensing and operational resources, making it more suited to large enterprises. Its comprehensive feature set can result in a steep learning curve and prolonged implementation periods.

Organizations may face challenges in navigating AEM’s extensive capabilities without specialised expertise, potentially increasing the dependency on Adobe-certified partners for successful deployment and ongoing management.

If you see the word specialised, you know you're going to recieve an invoice with an extra 0 on the end. If you're considering scrapping it and moving to something significantly faster, we've got you covered.

Key advantages

GraphQL-first API architecture

Hygraph gives developers precise and predictable queries without over-fetching or duct-taping endpoints. If you're comfortable with GraphQL, go ahead with it.

Multi-region content delivery

Your content gets served from the closest region, so pages load fast everywhere without you having to think about infrastructure.

Fast geo-distributed responses

Because their CDN actually does its job, API calls resolve quickly across regions which is perfect for apps that can’t afford to wait on slow round-trips.

External API integration support

Hygraph’s content federation lets you pull in data from other APIs and treat everything like one unified system without any custom backend glue or microservice jungle.

Generous free tier offering

You can build real projects without paying a penny. It’s surprisingly capable for prototyping, small sites, or testing before you commit budget.

Automated webhook capabilities

All the updates trigger instantly with clean webhooks, which is great for syncing builds, triggering workflows, or piping data into other systems without manual overhead.
