Media companies abandon Drupal for a Jeff Bezos start-up

Why this guide?

I’ve been doing only Drupal for 10 years, but Drupal is dying. Let’s see why and how publishers can benefit from the best Drupal alternative so far: Arc XP.

TL;DR> In this long read, you’ll discover:

• What is Drupal, and why have publishers massively migrated to Drupal in the past decade
• Why Drupal is no more a good option for them
• How Arc XP, a SaaS CMS for publishers created by the Washington Post, works and why it’s a better choice compared to Drupal
• How long does it take, how much does it costs, and how you should organize your migration project, from Drupal to Arc XP

Drupal is an open-source CMS or, more precisely a framework, created in 2001 by Dries Buytaert. It started as a small blogging platform and became one of the largest and most used CMSes in the world in the past 20 years.
