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.

Benefits of Kontent.ai

Calling your CMS “Kontent dot ai” is a brilliant way to convince people you’ve built an AI-powered future. And to be fair, the platform does have a clean editor, strong workflow tools, and a respectable multi-channel setup.

It's perfect for the kind of company that has more infosec members than it does have devs. But calling yourself an AI platform doesn’t mean you’re built like one.

Real AI-driven CMS platforms start at the foundation with structured content, flexible modeling, real-time indexing, and an architecture that doesn’t panic the moment you try something complex. Sanity doesn’t even market itself as “AI-first,” but it’s been ahead of the curve for years. They shipped an embedding index before “AI CMS” was a pitch deck buzzword. We even built one of the first AI search tools on top of it.

So yes, Kontent.ai is great. If you want a polished interface and enterprise workflows, go for it. And if you’re dead-set on building your website there, talk to us first. We’ll walk you through it and maybe even find a better way before you spend six months discovering the limits yourself.

Key advantages

Intuitive content management

You shouldn’t need a week of onboarding to publish a paragraph. Kontent.ai nails this with a clean interface that doesn’t punish you for being a marketer instead of a developer.

Flexible content modeling

Build content the way your brain works. Modular, structured, reusable. No dev intervention every time marketing decides “we need one more field.”

Strong API-first architecture

The APIs are predictable, well-documented, and don’t require wild workarounds. Everything connects the way it should and developers stay happy too.

Tech stack integration

React, Vue, Angular, or whatever framework you’re obsessed with this week, Kontent.ai plays nice with all of them and keeps deployments smooth.

Advanced image transformations

You can resize, crop, and optimize visuals without leaving the CMS. Think of it as an in-house designer that doesn’t complain about aspect ratios.

Real-time collaboration

Writers, editors, and developers can work together without stepping on each other’s commits. Instant updates, fewer Slack messages, and zero “who overwrote my draft?” moments.
