The Benefit of Adobe Experience Manager Forms as a Cloud Service

It is exciting to announce that Adobe Experience Manager Forms module is now available as a Cloud Service implementation. There are many benefits to be gained from utilizing the cloud service version for both new users and existing AEM Forms users.

If you are new to AEM Forms, leveraging the Cloud Service installation rather than a local on premise installation can have many advantages for your organization, which include faster time to market, improved streamlined onboarding experience and a simplified pricing structure.

Moving existing installations to a Cloud Service implementation also has many benefits. Many local installations of AEM are out of date. Managing local software adds strain to already burdened IT teams which is why having updates done to the software can be hard to achieve and costly. There is also risks that there is local server failures or hardware malfunctions so extra precautions need to be taken.  Utilizing the cloud service implementation helps authors to ensure they can access the most current features within the product and frees IT teams to focus on more important tasks that require their attention.

Moving towards a cloud instance of AEM Forms benefits businesses day to day operations. As the cloud service is managed by Adobe you can be sure that the service is always up and running regardless of power failure or cloud disasters. Your environment will always be up to date as Adobe regularly pushes the latest innovations for continues access to what is current, certifying your users have the best experience with the solution. The service is always scaling based on the demand on the service, to ensure performance never suffers even during peak hours or unpredicted high usage.
