Improve web performance, stay compliant, and expand your reach by ensuring your content is of high quality and accessible to everyone.

DENVER, November 3, 2023 – Crownpeak, a leading Digital Experience Platform (DXP), announced today the general availability of DQM Connect, a deep integration between the hybrid headless CMS (FirstSpirit) and the Digital Accessibility and Quality solution (DQM). The integration comes with a unique accessibility viewer directly within the FirstSpirit visual editor, Content Creator. Designed to empower teams to deliver high-quality and accessible experiences to everyone, Crownpeak is the only CMS with built-in digital accessibility capabilities.

“We use Crownpeak Digital Accessibility and Quality solution (DQM) because we have many decentralized occasional editors and do not want to spend time controlling them via release mechanisms. With DQM we can get an overview of content quality and accessibility issues in one place, without the guesswork. It has saved us hours of manual work and our digital experience has significantly improved”. Mr. Christian Erbe, Head of Digital Department at University of Applied Sciences Südwestfalen

In today’s world, customer expectations and digital journeys are constantly shifting, with more pressure than ever to publish quality content, the first time around. Otherwise, time spent fixing errors, higher bounce rates, compliance risks and expensive fines can start to build up, creating more hurdles for your marketing team to jump. Now, organizations must deliver and scale exceptional experiences that are accessible to everyone with speed and efficiency.

“Accessibility standards and regulations have compelled organizations to elevate their digital experiences, transforming the way teams create, deliver and manage content for every channel,” said Jonah Paransky, CEO at Crownpeak. “At Crownpeak, our vision is to empower our customers to build meaningful digital experiences for everyone, everywhere. We are already enabling this with our brand-new accessibility viewer, which is seamlessly integrated directly into the visual editor of our CMS, FirstSpirit, to empower marketers to remediate accessibility issues as part of the publication process. With more exciting launches and releases on the horizon, we’ll continue to empower leading organizations to expand reach, stay compliant and improve website performance”.
