My company does consulting and custom deployments of AEM for our clients, and they all love how easy it is for them to publish and maintain their site's content using the components we build for them.
There is virtually nothing Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) can't do, if you're willing to put a little time into development.
The learning curve is steep and it's not always easy to find comprehensive self-help resources for the platform online.

When we decided that we needed to redesign our college's websites (over 100 of them), we looked for a tool that was robust and versatile, and one that had recommendations from others in higher ed. We found Adobe's Experience Manager (Called CQ5 back then). And although it's been a bumpy road, we are starting on our third large redesign with no regrets.
Whatever you want to do, AEM will let you do it. Customization is key, and the ability to create multiple sites with one product is a bonus. There are tools to help you get started, and the ability to create a template where our authors can just enter content without worrying about format is a blessing.
AEM is not an easy program to install or to administer, not if you are going to go beyond an all-in-one server. The configurations are headache inducing, and the documentation isn't always current. Sometimes it behaves in inexplicable ways until you get your hands into its guts to look at the underlying configuration - then it becomes fairly simple to diagnose. But finding experts who are doing what you are with the software (my favorite way to solve an issue) can be difficult.

it has basic functionality to store, tag and share creative assets with internal and external team members
Not a user-friendly design. For example, search results load in portions, you never know if that's all or you need to scroll down more, hold, release, wait. Not intuitive at all.

Very user friendly with the WYSIWYG interface and easy to learn components and templates. Regular workers can author their own content.
With most content management systems they each have their own nuances. Things can arise depending on what browser youre using, how your components were made, what kind of network restrictions your company has. All things to consider when setting up this application.

Features like msm, tagging, workflows makes this best content management system.
The ui of AEM is so much user friendly and touch optimized. It makes website development easy and quick.
Some of the feature screen are still in classic ui which must be changed as per touch ui in order to support mobile.
