If you’re like many businesses we speak to every day, you probably recognise the symptoms of a digital platform that’s starting to hold you back. Maybe it’s the endless reliance on development teams just to make simple content changes. Maybe your site performance feels sluggish, causing frustration for both your teams and your customers. Or perhaps you’re worried that your technology stack is getting harder — and more expensive — to maintain as it ages.
These are common challenges for organisations running on legacy front-end systems. While these setups may have once felt cutting-edge, they can quickly become blockers to business agility, customer experience, and digital growth.
That’s why at The Pixel, we’ve made it our mission to help brands break free from legacy limitations. We’re proud to have been one of the first agencies in the UK to integrate Adobe Edge Delivery Services (EDS) with Adobe Commerce, helping our clients transform their customer experiences with faster, leaner, and more scalable digital solutions.
With multiple EDS projects already under our belt, we’ve seen first-hand the dramatic improvements this technology delivers. And now, with Adobe’s Universal Editor entering the market, we believe there’s an even greater opportunity to unlock next-level editorial control and performance.
Why Modernise? The Challenges of Legacy Front-Ends
Many organisations still rely on legacy front-end systems that:
- Require developer involvement for even the smallest content changes
- Struggle with slow page load speeds and poor SEO performance
- Are expensive and time-consuming to maintain
- Risk falling behind on Adobe’s innovation curve
