  6. Key theme: WCM drives digital experience Forrester defines digital customer experience (DX) as: The management and delivery of dynamic, targeted, and consistent content, offers, products, and service interactions across digitally enabled touchpoints.

  7. Is WCM the “sexiest” software of 2013? WCM has evolved from basic, IT-centric tools . . . . . . to smart, flexible, and business-friendly systems at the core of firms’ digital customer experiences and online engagement strategies. Marketing, customer support, internal employee support Personalized delivery of content and experiences Tuned to the needs of digital experience professionals Delivers content and experiences to many channels (i.e., mobile) Global, multilingual, and multisite capabilities Integration with back-end business software to leverage data

  8. Basic WCM doesn’t cut it WCM has evolved from “managing content” to “managing digital customer experiences” (DX). WCM is now the center of a web software ecosystem. Goal is to support multichannel, engaging experiences. WCM vendors all have evolved toward this. However, some offer more complete solutions than others.

  9. Focus on playing nice with other systems WCM is an integration story (not a suite story). Forrester believes that WCM must be open and easy to integrate with related technology in the DX ecosystem. CRM, marketing automation, email, analytics, testing . . . Reality is enterprises own many pieces of technology. WCM should integrate with existing platforms.

  10. Use WCM to get up close and personal Put the right content in front of visitors at the right time. Forrester calls this personalized, contextual content. Deliver content and experience to visitor segments, even individuals. WCMs are intelligent about CM and delivery thanks to: User profile and segmentation data. Rules-based content targeting. Demographic, historical, and situational targeting. WCM is the linchpin that unites disparate enterprise digital marketing and engagement tools.
