Real world examples of brands that use Adobe Experience Manager, and how its implementation resolved the challenges they faced around CX, content, and personalization.
Increasingly, customers aren’t just buying your brand’s product — they’re buying an entire experience, one that starts with personalized content and seamlessly transitions to an efficient sales process. And they’re willing to pay a premium for those personalized experiences.
In fact, according to a study by Oracle, 86% of customers are willing to pay more for a better customer experience. So much so that by 2020, customer experience is set to overtake price and product as a key brand differentiator.
But providing every customer with the perfect experience at just the right point in their buyer journey means quickly producing and effectively managing a mountain of content, which is why some of the world’s most recognizable brands have turned to Adobe Experience Manager to effectively juggle and optimize all that content.

By storing its vast amount of content assets in one centralized location, Hyatt was able to better manage and personalize all its content. This centralization enabled thousands of authors around the world to quickly manage and create content, which made for faster website updates and easier access to information for both authors and customers.
