Uniform

Achieve personalization and performance without replacing your existing technology

Each of our customers has a unique marketing technology stack of tools. Getting the most out of each tool can be a daunting task. We work with you to connect your existing systems (even legacy systems) to help you accelerate time to market through Uniform.
Uniform connects your marketing tools to allow your website to deliver contextual and personalized experiences. If you are on a digital experience platform (DXP) like Sitecore, you can leverage Sitecore’s strong content management and agile personalization capabilities while delivering blazing fast experiences to your customers.

Why does performance matter?

  1. Impacts your Search rankings – slower sites rank lower
  2. Fast loading sites have lower bounce rates and higher conversion rates

  1. Fast sites are easier to crawl
  2. Ultimately impacts your business results & user experience

Optimize Your Website with Uniform

With Uniform, you can deploy new sites globally straight from DXP’s such as Sitecore in as little as 60 seconds.
You will quickly start to see the benefits of a blazing fast site due to faster load times that yield higher search rankings. A higher ranking means more exposure, which means more traffic to your site, translating into more conversions.

In a decoupled (headless) architecture, you can leverage DXP’s for their strengths (content management, personalization) and allow Uniform to serve as a bridge between the DXP and a Content Delivery Network (CDN) of your choice.

With this approach, you get the best of both worlds: a blazing fast site delivered by an inexpensive CDN architecture with dynamic personalized components managed by the DXP.

Increase performance and reduce costs, improve your search rankings and improve conversion rates. For more information about Uniform click here.
