What Progress Sitefinity is
Progress Sitefinity is a composable digital experience platform for marketers and developers to build, manage, and optimize digital experiences. Its CMS provides a single interface for pages, assets, and multilingual content, with SEO and digital asset management capabilities. The platform also supports personalization, headless delivery, experimentation, journey orchestration, and experience analytics.
AI capabilities include prompt templates, content tagging, generated experiences, AI agents, and conversational content intelligence; some tools are add-ons. Integration choices include native, third-party, and middleware options. Integration Hub connects to more than 1,000 MarTech integrations, but access is limited to Sitefinity Cloud or Sitefinity Insight customers.
Organizations can deploy Sitefinity self-hosted or in Sitefinity Cloud. Self-hosted customers select their infrastructure and manage maintenance, security, and scaling; licenses are offered per production domain or server on perpetual or subscription terms. Progress positions self-hosting for IT-driven teams seeking infrastructure and architecture control, and Cloud for digital teams that want less IT dependency. The paid product has no free plan, and pricing is on request. Trials include a fully hosted 14-day option and a 30-day local development server option. All licenses include one year of maintenance and technical support; Base Support is included for customers with active maintenance.
