Choosing the Right CMS Just Got Easier, Especially for Financial Services Marketers

The “How to Choose the Right CMS” webinar is now available as a whitepaper, and it’s essential reading for marketing leaders navigating complex digital decisions.

If you're a marketing executive in the financial services industry, you know that choosing a content management system (CMS) isn’t just about features. It's about security, scalability, compliance, integrations, and, let’s face it, your team’s sanity. The newly released whitepaper version of Umbraco’s “How to Choose the Right CMS” webinar is a must-read for any marketing leader exploring CMS platforms for their next digital transformation project.

And if you're on the path to a composable DXP, Scandia is here to help you navigate it with confidence.

Why This Whitepaper Matters to Financial Services Marketers

Whether you're a CMO at a regional bank, a digital director at a credit union, or a VP of Marketing at an investment advisory firm, your CMS decisions carry weight. The wrong platform can restrict your agility, hinder your compliance efforts, and frustrate your editorial teams. The right one empowers your marketing operation with faster content delivery, seamless integrations, and better customer engagement.

This whitepaper walks you through the real considerations marketers face when evaluating CMS platforms:

• Security and compliance in regulated industries
• Content governance and workflows that actually make sense
• Integration-readiness with CRMs, marketing automation, and analytics
• User-friendly editing experiences that don’t require dev help
• Scalability across regional branches, brands, or business units

If you're Googling phrases like “best CMS for financial services,” “secure open-source CMS,” or “Umbraco vs Sitecore for banking,” this resource is built for you.
