Drupal Cloud

Acquia Migrate
Migrating from Drupal 8 to Drupal 9 is a cakewalk, however, it is not the case with earlier versions of Drupal. Acquia Migrate automates the migration process, thereby expediting the upgrade process for Drupal 8 to Drupal 9 and accelerating Drupal 7 to Drupal 9 migrations by up to 80%.
In addition to this, Acquia Migrate also offers solutions to migrate non-Drupal sites into Drupal 9 effortlessly. Learn more about Acquia Migrate here.
Acquia Cloud IDE

The Acquia Cloud IDE allows a developer to spin up a full browser-based development environment in 60 seconds that is fully integrated into the Acquia Cloud. Learn more about Acquia Cloud here.
Acquia CMS
Acquia’s content management system is essentially a pre-configured version of Drupal, making it easier for developers to harness the power of Drupal. The Acquia CMS comes along with pre-selected modules, advanced security, a better content authoring experience, and integrations with other Acquia products. Acquia CMS is still Drupal, but with additional enterprise enhancements.
Site Studio
Acquia Site Studio (formerly Cohesion) moves Drupal from a page-based system to a true component-based CMS that allows users to build up experiences using a toolbox of components. One challenge of Site Studio has been that the user interfaces for creating these are not quite WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get). The Page Builder enhancement to Site Studio delivers that author-friendly WYSIWYG experience when dragging and dropping components onto the page.
Site Factory
Acquia site factory offers a single place to build, govern, run and enhance a portfolio of digital experiences. Its central dashboard gives a single view of all your digital experiences, making it easier to manage existing DX’s and spin up new ones quickly. Site Factory also offers 24X7 support and maintenance, guaranteeing a 99.95% uptime.
Marketing Cloud
The Acquia Marketing Cloud is the suite of tools that enable extended marketing functionality like personalization and marketing automation.
Acquia Personalization
Personalization (formerly Acquia Lift) lets you track customers’ behaviour throughout their buying journey—from anonymous visitors to loyal, repeat customers. Personalization unifies customer content and profile data from multiple sources to deliver in-context, personalized experiences across any channel or device.
Customer Data Platform
Customer Data Platform (formerly AgilOne) is a customer data platform (CDP) for enterprise brands that helps companies increase their revenue and profitability by using machine learning to drive customer lifetime value, return visits, loyalty, time to convert, and more.
DAM
Acquia DAM is a cloud-based digital asset management solution that works effortlessly with Acquia’s experience platform (including Cloud Platform, Site Factory, and Personalization) to provide content delivery workflows, organization, and governance of creative assets files for downstream use in digital experiences.
Campaign Factory
As your company evolves and expands, you’ll inevitably experience more and more complexity. This complexity can include new business units, regional teams, or clients (if you’re an agency), each benefiting from separate marketing automation accounts. With Campaign Factory (formerly Maestro), you can empower each of these groups with a separate automation account, while maintaining full visibility and control over each of those groups.
Campaign Studio
With Campaign Studio (formerly Mautic), you can build email, nurture campaigns, personalize messages, execute A/B tests, and measure results. It simplifies marketing automation for everyone on your team, eliminating the need for dedicated, certified staff to execute your campaigns. As a result, your team can launch campaigns in minutes, not days, leaving more time to focus on the important milestones for reaching your goals.
