In addition to previously available capabilities such as high-extensibility, API-enabled for headless implementation, and central multisite and multilingual management, Progress Sitefinity 12 has taken an MVC-first approach, decreasing time to market and enabling developers to easily address business demands and the use of popular third-party frameworks for quicker time-to-market for mobile-first web projects.

With Progress Sitefinity, businesses can effectively enable creation, curation, conversion, insight and optimization,” said John Ainsworth, SVP, Core Products, Progress. “Sitefinity 12 brings to market a host of new capabilities to improve operational efficiency and better enable marketer productivity. In addition, with Sitefinity in the cloud, we’re enabling our customers to focus on their core businesses with the assurance of a full Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that minimizes complexity, reduces overhead and ensures maximum performance.”
