Liferay Digital Experience Platform vs Liferay DXP

Liferay Digital Experience Platform (DXP) helps enterprise organizations build websites, customer and partner portals, supplier portals, intranets, and self-service solutions. It combines content management with personalization, authentication, access controls, workflow automation, headless content delivery, commerce, experimentation, experience analytics, and digital asset support. Organizations can deploy it as SaaS, PaaS, or self-hosted software, including on-premise. Its integration framework connects external systems through SOAP, REST, GraphQL, RSS, and proprietary APIs, and a REST API Builder supports custom APIs. Identity features include multi-factor authentication and support for LDAP, SAML 2.0, OpenID, Kerberos, and CAS, as well as roles and fine-grained permissions. The Free Tier provides core capabilities for exploration, development, and pre-production, though some capabilities require an Enterprise Subscription key. Liferay offers a 7-day prebuilt SaaS trial and a free 30-day self-hosted or local sandbox trial. Enterprise Subscription pricing depends on deployment model and implementation scope; prospective customers are directed to sales.
