Which One Is Right for You?
When it comes to building powerful, modern digital experiences, Progress Sitefinity offers a robust Content Management System (CMS) designed to adapt to your unique needs. Whether your focus is on reliability, scalability, or convenience, Sitefinity provides three distinct deployment options, each tailored to meet the demands of your business:
— On-Premise — Cloud — SaaS —
On-Premise: Complete Control at Your Fingertips
For organizations that prefer full control over their infrastructure, an on-premise deployment is a great consideration. It offers complete customization and allows your IT team to manage every aspect of your CMS environment, from updates to security protocols. This option is best suited for businesses with strict compliance requirements or those that already have a robust internal IT infrastructure.
Sitefinity Cloud: Scalability and Flexibility Without Compromise
Designed for businesses that need a scalable, high-performance solution, Sitefinity Cloud provides the perfect blend of convenience and control. By hosting your CMS with Progress on Microsoft Azure, you can enjoy automatic scaling, enhanced security, and simplified updates, all while maintaining the ability to customize your environment. As highlighted on Flywheel's website in Maximizing Digital Experiences with Sitefinity Cloud, this option empowers organizations to drive their digital strategy forward with minimal operational overhead.
