Less costly CMS platform
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Decap CMS from other similar products?
The user interface of Netlify CMS is excellent in and of itself, but especially when compared to other similar CMS interfaces. Everything is neatly laid out, and it's simple to sort and edit our content.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It's my favorite tool for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, it's the most simple platform, allowing our non-technical staff to easily add content to any site. Second, it provides incredibly high security to our content, freeing us up to focus on business growth. Finally, we can easily integrate it with static site generators, which provides great results in terms of safe online projects, site development, higher flexibility, and many more.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Previously we were having difficulties in using the application therefore I left it but still, it doesn't resolve my problem. The documentation bothers me. Netlify is very simple to set up and use, but Netlify CMS is much more difficult to set up and use.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It's as simple as changing your website's nameservers and selecting the level of security you want to use Netlify CMS. The entire site transition should take less than an hour. It's also helpful that they respond to my emails regularly. In a nutshell, it's a solid platform.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Performance Enhancing
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy

Faster and fully featured CMS
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Decap CMS from other similar products?
Netlify CMS makes hosting websites more convenient and easier for us. As a result, it also makes our hosting and web app development processes more understandable and easier while also allowing us to manage them without difficulty. I enjoy my work on Netlify CMS because of its simplistic approach.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The fantastic aspect of this system is that it makes use of the best CDN to deliver content to our customers. As a result, our website loads faster than if it were hosted on a regular hosting platform. The ability to run a content management system without the use of a backend server or service is also my favorite. It also allows me to use Git as the backend service for my CMS, lowering costs and simplifying things for both myself and my clients.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The helping material is not to my liking. I found Netlify to be very simple to set up and use, however, Netlify CMS is considerably more difficult to set up and use. Because it's an open-source project, I believe there's a lot of room for future enhancements.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Netlify CMS is unique and headless because it will allow you to write and edit Markdown files without using the code editor or learning everything about GitHub Pull Requests. The platform is simple to use and provides a great deal of versatility. Netlify, in my opinion, is doing some incredible things to make development more transparent.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Unique Features
- Effective Service
