AEM vs WordPress

Clear Advantages for Your Team
Feature WordPress Recommended AEM (Adobe Experience Manager)
Licensing & Costs Free open-source core; lower hosting, development & maintenance costs. High licensing fees, specialized hosting, costly developer resources.
Market Share Powers ~43% of all websites and ~60–62% of CMS-driven sites globally. Used mainly by large enterprises; smaller share of overall websites.
Ease of Use Intuitive block editor; marketers and editors can self-manage content. Steeper learning curve; content authors often rely on technical teams.
Maintenance Lightweight, fast updates, and easier long-term maintenance. Complex upgrades, heavier infrastructure, slower iteration cycles.
Integrations & Ecosystem Huge ecosystem of plugins and integrations; connects to almost any tool. Strong Adobe ecosystem but more limited and proprietary outside it.
Scalability & Flexibility Extremely flexible with custom themes, CPTs, fields & blocks. Built for enterprise workflows but harder to customize quickly.
Development Resources Large global developer community; easier hiring & faster iteration. Requires specialized AEM developers at higher costs.

Your Future on WordPress Starts Here

AEM is powerful, but often more than many organizations need, especially given its cost and technical overhead. WordPress offers freedom, flexibility, and long-term sustainability, and with Vertical handling your migration, the transition is straightforward and risk-free.
