From stuck to started Tuesday 17 November 2026 · Utrecht
A Breakfast event
Every few years, the same question: carry on with Sitecore or replace it? Usually the next upgrade or licence renewal wins, because replacing feels too big and too uncertain. But if moving to XM Cloud is a replatforming anyway, why not look at the market first? Join us for breakfast with peers wrestling with the same question, practical stories from Sitecore projects and a customer case on moving to a modern headless CMS.
Two short sessions from practice. After that, the floor is yours.
How big is replacing Sitecore really, and where do you start? Gert van Vliet and Gijs Edelbroek share what they run into in practice. Several sites on one platform. Backend logic built into the CMS. A .NET dependency that adds little to your website. And the question of whether to include a redesign or leave it out.
A large Dutch energy supplier is moving from Sitecore XM Cloud to Sanity. Sanity shows why that choice was made and how the migration is set up while the current sites keep running.
In two rounds, you discuss a statement or open question in small groups of up to six people. Each round you sit with different people. Every group then shares its three main takeaways with the room.
A replatforming takes us two years. The technology is done in six months.
Business and IT never agree on when it is good enough. That is why Sitecore is still here.
We replace our CMS, and five years later we have the same problem on a new platform.
70+ years of combined experience with CMS selections, platform transitions and the organisations that have to work with them.

Opening and breakout sessions
Customer case: from Sitecore XM Cloud to Sanity
Speakers to be announced soon
For digital leads, CTOs, CIOs and CDOs at organisations on Sitecore. Even if the decision is not on the agenda yet: if you have been putting this choice off for years, you will get a lot out of hearing how others went about it. Now that AI puts new demands on your content platform, this is a good moment to make the call.
Please note: the event is held in Dutch.
