2013 People's Choice Winner for Best Hosted / Cloud CMS
The award for Best Hosted / Cloud CMS is new for 2013 and we added it to give a bit of separation from the typical content management systems on the market.
For a cloud CMS to be effective, the services need to be managed well, offer regular updates and security maintenance, have excellent technical support and high availability. These are separate from the typical requirements of a standard CMS and therefore, we felt it justified to have this new category this year.
As a refresher, here are the nominees for this year:
It's time to announce the winner of the People's Choice award for Best Hosted / Cloud CMS. This was a hard-fought battle between Agility CMS and Acquia Cloud but in the end, there can only be one winner.
