Adobe Business Catalyst End of Life, website migration recommendations

112 views Asked by At

So Adobe announced they are ending Business Catalyst in March 2020. I need to migrate a current website and blog. What would be some good options? I am telling my client that we should stick with a regular HTML site. However, I am unsure how to migrate the blog? Am I going to have to use wordpress, or is there another way? I really want to stay away from Wordpress in fear of that it will not last forever either. Also, options for the forms? Thanks.

The BC community has been evaluating several CMS options since End-Of-Life was announced. Join the Adobe Business Catalyst Partners Facebook group to learn more, and watch the relevant BC Sandpile videos which showcase some of the alternatives.

I just migrated a BC site that made extensive use of web apps to WordPress and I found that WordPress + custom post types + ACF + Gravity Forms offers the BC experience we love plus a whole lot more. Managed hosting via WP Engine or Flywheel offers the performance and security of BC while avoiding some of the security issues that WordPress can be associated with.
