A Digital Experience Platform, commonly referred to as a DXP, is software that enables its users to create and manage a wide variety of digital experiences across the entire customer journey. A digital experience includes websites, landing pages, microsites, digital product guides, and more.
Typically, a DXP allows the creator to build out the front-end design of the digital experience. Some DXPs, such as Lumavate, allow you to create the entire digital experience without using any code. Additionally, DXPs also have content management capabilities that allow you to easily create, manage, and reuse content.
For example:

Documents
Videos

Some DXPs only offer standalone Content Management System (CMS) functionality, while others offer a full Digital Asset Management (DAM) solution. Lumavate’s no-code DXP includes a full DAM.
A digital experience is any interaction with a customer in a digital, or online, touchpoint. Additionally, the software or online service a digital marketer uses to create that digital touchpoint would be the creation part of the digital experience.
A DXP is the cloud-based software used to centralize, create, and manage the digital assets and digital experiences that are produced. So for the best digital experiences possible, the preferred digital experience platform software should be all-inclusive. It should be one that enables a business to manage its product data and digital assets in one system of record.
Here are some of the best digital experience examples.
Websites
Social media
eCommerce
Connected products
Portals
Those are all examples of digital experiences.
A Digital Experience Platform DXP manages digital experiences across a wide variety of digital touchpoints throughout the customer journey. Every DXP must have a way for business users to build and iterate on digital experiences without having to use code. DXPs must also have a built-in Content Management System (CMS) or Digital Asset Management (DAM) functionality.
Every piece of DXP software has either built-in or integrated analytics capabilities, so users can effectively monitor their digital experiences and make any changes needed based on that data. Additionally, most DXPs offer some level of personalization within their digital experiences. Those experiences can range from personalizing specific pieces of content within a digital experience to dynamically changing the entire digital experience based on where a customer is on the customer's journey with a specific brand (more about that in a moment).
Some DXPs also include a version of a Customer Data Platform (CDP) to collect and manage customer data. The CDP functionality within DXP solutions can vary a great deal. Additionally, some other DXP technologies include eCommerce functionality, built-in Product Information Management (PIM) solutions, text messaging, form builders, integrations, and more.
There are a variety of DXP companies available. The list of digital platforms includes Adobe Experience Platform Manager, Sitecore, Liferay, Acquia, Optimizely, and others. Each of these digital experience platform examples offers the ability for business users to build digital experiences. The problem is, however, that some of them require more technical resources to get started than others.
For example, Adobe Experience Manager requires technical resources and sometimes even outside consultants just for the initial implementation. Alternatively, Lumavate’s DXP solution can be set up within minutes by anyone on your marketing team.
Most DXP solutions typically offer a Content Management System (CMS) or Digital Asset Management (DAM). However, if you want an all-inclusive system that comes with more than just a CMS and/or DAM, Lumavate offers substantially more functionality than most DXPs.
