Los Angeles, CA - February 19th, 2019 - XCentium today announced the launch and availability of their Flex Accelerator for Sitecore, a new SaaS solution offered as part of the Sitecore KickStart program. Designed specifically for mid-market organizations, Flex Accelerator for Sitecore enables Sitecore’s industry-leading digital experience platform to be deployed in a SaaS setting in as little as 30 days and at a starting price of $100,000 per year.

Flex Accelerator for Sitecore is home to several clients eager to use the new hosting model provided by the Sitecore KickStart program. Nexford University was the first to take advantage of the solution, with a new website built on Sitecore® Experience Platform version 9 only five weeks from hand-off to launch.

“We are very excited about the Flex Accelerator for Sitecore SaaS service XCentium and Sitecore have provided. We were in the market for a turnkey, fast time-to-market solution based on a best-of-breed enterprise CMS. The introduction to XCentium’s Flex Accelerator for Sitecore solved all our requirements immediately,” said Paul Coleman, Chief Technical Officer of Nexford University.

“Nexford had incredibly tight timelines to go live. Alternative solutions from other providers had timelines that were triple or quadruple that of XCentium through Flex Accelerator for Sitecore. Our XCentium team was essentially able to start migrating Nexford to the Flex Accelerator SaaS solution on the first day, providing Nexford a much faster time to market and providing immense value,” said Martin Knudsen, Partner and Flex Accelerator Product Owner at XCentium.

“The market has been missing the combination of such an affordable, easy-to-use, and complete digital experience offering for small and midmarket companies,” said Mark Frost, CEO of Sitecore. “Sitecore KickStart and partner solutions like XCentium’s Flex Accelerator make it much easier to deliver world-class digital experiences. Now every company has the opportunity to connect with their customers in a highly personalized way that cultivates lifelong relationships.”
