Reason 1: Improved user experience
- Less clicks needed to navigate around.
- Within the Sites section (as well as other places inside AEM), you can now use your
keyboard arrow buttons to navigate through the various site structures, using the
Columns view.
- You can now save a search within AEM for later use, as a quick way to find a specific
piece of content.
- Users are able to open the Page Properties of multiple pages in order for an author to
add the same tag (as one particular example).

Reason 2: Full touch interface
All features of the Classic UI are now integrated in the Touch UI:
- Tags are now completely integrated within the Touch UI instead of only being in the
Classic UI.
- Now you can use Design Mode right within the Touch UI page that you are on in stead
of switching to the Classic UI first.
- The Workflows system is now more fully integrated within the Touch UI instead of only
being in the Classic UI.

Reason 6: Marketing suite integration
AEM is now more tightly integrated with other Adobe products:
- AEM is now integrated with Adobe Campaign, such that you can take a piece of content
inside AEM (like an email) and use it in Campaign.
- The integration of Adobe Analytics data with the pages of the site gives content
authors a quick view of how well things are tracking.
- Integration of Adobe Test&Target will allow you to create an activity with variations
inside AEM on a per-page basis, just like you would do with Adobe Test&Target.

Reason 7: Templating language Sightly
AEM introduces a new templating language: Sightly. Sightly allows developers to create
better, cleaner and reusable components. This will lead to faster component development.

Reason 8: Responsive made easy
- Marketers now have the tools to create responsive sites without a single line of code.
- If you make, for example, a change for desktop, it won’t affect what appears on tablet
or other device types.
- Using the “Layouting Mode,” regular authors can control the width of components on a
per-device basis.

Reason 9: Better browser support
AEM 6.1 support all recent browsers used in Windows, Mac and Android devices.

Reason 10: More personalization possibilities
If someone does not buy a product they viewed, you now can capture the abandoned
product and use that information to help put it front and center the next time that they
visit.
