The best CMS currently available on the market

What differentiates Contentful from other similar products?

A content data infrastructure, or an enterprise content management system, is called contentful.The free Community Version of Contentful allows users to test the CMS for free at first. No other enterprise provider provides the same option. The Compose module, which finally eliminates all of the shortcomings of the WebApp, is what I like best. The app launch makes it possible to test and plan larger releases before they are released. I like how accessible Contentful is all over the world; it works well even in China, and we had no performance issues prior to the start of an international trade show. Emails should be attractively designed.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The central content hub for all content and assets is provided by Contentful for me and my customers. Then, the contents can be delivered to other systems. For instance,I can build a PIM with Contentful that, for instance, supplies products to an ERP system and an e-commerce site. Different content requirements apply to an e-commerce system than an ERP system. It is possible to distribute very specific rights for the content's editing via the roles and rights model, which greatly facilitates teamwork.There are already a lot of apps that have contentful extensions that add new functionality.Filled out by all employees, regardless of experience

What do you dislike most about this product?

The only thing I'm missing is a live preview of my system changes. This opens in a new window right now. However, there are alternative extensions and fixes that address the issue. The Baukasten elements are naturally again a little restricted here and there, and one cannot layout something quite as freely as one would ideally. A good example would be to place two CTAs next to one another rather than below one another. Really, they are only minor things. Overall, I have nothing to replace Contentful with.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

All of Contentful's features are used by the entire company, but I personally only use the ability to create dynamic emails. Thanks to the Baukastensystem and Drag and Drop, I can easily create an email template and always see how it turns out in the Preview. The available elements can all be understood clearly by anyone. Almost everything for every type of email layout is available, from text blocks to CTAs to picture blocks. Even dynamic content can be seamlessly integrated into Contentful, such as a personalized headline or the addition of a significant reference number from another system.Brilliant and saves all operating colleagues

Easy yo use, easy to implement

What differentiates Contentful from other similar products?

I think the support given by the Contentful team was something that differencies them from another vendor. We had several calls in order to implement the CMS itself, and then we kept the communications going wtih the new set of needs that the business had. They were truly interested on helping us out.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The easiness of changing content in 1 second. If you need to update some content, you can just go to the admin dashboard and do it. And publish the change in minutes. By doing this, my team wouldn't depend on a developer to adjust the content. A copy writer could do it really quick.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I think the amount of user could be charged in a different way. At the cost of the premium version, they could add more free users.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Keep in mind the amount of content types you need. That is the key information to select the right plan for you.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Trustworthy
  • Respectful
  • Friendly Negotiation
