Liferay Survey: 63% Manage Content Beyond Websites
Liferay published the 2026 Liferay Digital Content Management Survey (fielded via Pollfish) of 500 U.S. full-time employees who manage or oversee digital content. The report finds that 63% of content managers now create or manage content for channels beyond the website and that 86% of content stacks include AI, although only 14% fully trust AI for autonomous publishing. Other findings: 78% of respondents switch between multiple tools to complete a single content task; 60% of organizations have three or more teams using the same primary content tool; AI-heavy teams are substantially more likely to manage multilingual content (57% vs. 20% for non-AI users); and only 7% draft content in their primary content platform. Liferay emphasizes the CMS has evolved into an enterprise content hub requiring cross-team coordination, governance, multilingual support and AI oversight. Publication date: 2026-05-28.
Survey reveals adoption trends — CMS as enterprise hub, AI prevalence, multilingual workflows and cross-team tool fragmentation — relevant to MarTech vendors and content operations but not industry-shifting.
