Easy to understand, flexible, powerful and fast!
What do you like best about the product?
Having originally used Storyblok out of pure curiosity, I quickly found that it somehow incorporated all the best features and functionality from some of my favoured CMS platforms. As a headless CMS out of the box, I love that there's no barrier to entry here - it's well documented, easy to pick up and you know what you're getting in to immediately.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, I haven't really found anything. I can see a need for some experimentation every now and again, especially for anybody who's newer to composable architecture or anybody who hasn't used such a modular CMS previously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For any small brands or individuals that I speak to - the Community tier makes "best in breed" super accessible to a massive range of users and I recommend it with gusto! I'm working with more and more large brands who are making use of Storyblok to very quickly build and deploy new CMS platforms and are thrilled to be able to remove friction for both business teams and developers alike.

Overall experience with storyblok was great so far!
What do you like best about the product?
Good experience when it comes to the software itself (v1 and the new v2), awesome and mostly up2date documentation.
Also, personal contact and response times were great.
Also, personal contact and response times were great.
What do you dislike about the product?
(minimal) some example projects on GitHub aren't up2date anymore and should be updated (next.js examples in my case). Better highlight used versions of SDKs/node.js in the documentation to these examples.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The goal is to achieve a faster time-to-market with overall better quality and save time for other projects. It could enable us the reuse important components and content more easily.
1 month testing as Developer
What do you like best about the product?
The atomic design approach, a user-friendly interface. Preview mode, Real-time changing without saving the modification.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes buggy preview editor. Not many ressources for Next.js
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy development, re-usable component. Fastest development and easy to modify for a non-technical user.
Supercharge your Application with a flexibel Headless CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Storyblok makes it super easy to move from a static template to a dynamic website. The integration with our existing Laravel system was relatively easy thanks to detailed guides, and the excellent support was able to answer our open questions quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface of Storyblok V1 is a bit tricky for some of our customers, but the V2 promises a significant improvement here. Resolving relations with the "resolve relations" function can also be a bit complicated with intricate components, but eventually, we were able to solve all questions with the help of the storyblok support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We already had an existing website which we developed with the backend framework Laravel. However, this was not practical for regularly updating content. The integration with Storyblok to create dynamic content was pretty seamless. The loading times have improved a lot with Storyblok content delivery. The image service is also brilliant, you hardly have to worry about the size and format of the images you use.
Amazing value for money, however content reusability is a major issue
What do you like best about the product?
Great Pricing! It is actually affordable for small businesses
Components are generally quick and easy to put together
Compiling content is simple and intuitive for the most part but not very reusable (the biggest issue for me)

What do you dislike about the product?
Reusable components in content desperately need to be implemented, and the current nestable/global types that need to be added to related key through API sucks.
Currently I need to manually copy content across multiple pages, which is a nightmare when it needs to be updated...
Presets are cool, but only when creating; why can't I update the preset to all instances where I used that preset???
API documentation could be better.

We are replacing Statamic with Storyblock as our CMS for our frontend and with ALMOST EVERYTHING it does a good job as a simple, easy-to-use CMS for the marketing team to interact with.

User and Developer Experience is delicious.
What do you like best about the product?
A Headless CMS with a visual editor experience for your custom built components.
What do you dislike about the product?
Storyblok does not yet offer a module preview. When you have a large amount of useable modules you are not able to remember all of them. (How the look/feel). This of course is fixed in Storyblok V2 with "Module Preview Images".
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Storyblok it is possible to quickly create/model a JSON Storage/Content and provide it seamless to every technology either frontend or backend applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Among the headless CMS market, Storyblok is the best choice if you want developer and user (non technical) experience at the same time.
Storyblok changed how I look at CMSs
What do you like best about the product?
Storyblok's visual editor is revolutionary. Never it has been easier for developers and content editors to use a CMS.
What do you dislike about the product?
Storyblok works well. However, the documentation could be better sometimes. I know Storyblok is working to improve this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating a website + CMS that works for both developers and content editors.
Storyblok is the final piece of the Jamstack puzzle!
What do you like best about the product?
It's live preview and customisable Bloks have allowed us to present editors with their content in real-time. The custom field plugin allows developers to create their own integrations in the CMS! Storyblok also compliments Next.js perfectly well and we have the choice to either pull data at build or fetch in real-time giving us the choice of SSG, SSR or ISR.
What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation could be more in depth and contain more examples.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The live preview has helped Content Editors deliver reusable content more efficiently and has solved the last issue around which CMS to use with Jamstack. Custom Fields allows us to integrate data from other API's into our content and it
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking at JAMStack then Storyblok will provide a fast, reliable and scalable solution for your web build.
Storyblok enables us to use the perfect process to publish content to our potential customers
What do you like best about the product?
Content Editors will not only create the content, they will model the content before. That way they take away a lot of work from the developer and you will build your content "model first", together. Your model is immediately validated from content editors and business people, before you even begin to implement it.
Completing the process is just a matter of shoving the model into a nice looking template.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes you got to start on a blank slate, and this can lead to a little bit of writers block. At least in the begining, you need to teach story blok to your editors and work together with devs on modelling and the process. But this pays of 1000% !
I can't find much more negative then this.
The php SDK could have higher quality. The richtext-resolver-SDK (php) could have higher quality.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before we had to: a) create a model, b) create the template, c) create forms for the model to be filled by the content editor) e) actual fill it, f) use the filled model to show the completed page.
This process had major drawbacks: the model needed to be created by the developer, before the content editor could start to fill it. Large chunks of work had to be done before the model was validated by the content editor - and was so often wrong.
History repeats, when changes need to be made. This made a-e so slow.
With storyblok you combine a-e to a collab between editor and dev and you will find your model - already filled with content/data! so quick...
Last step - implementation - is then only a piece of cake

The only headless CMS you will ever need
What do you like best about the product?
The product is super easy to use, and the simplicity of connecting your own components to the platform is incredible. You can give the marketing / management / design teams super powers to create and manage pages.
What do you dislike about the product?
The approval flow needs rework, it takes a while to understand how it works.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used them for two things:
- Manage a bank application in multiple languages
- Launch several landing pages (also in multiple languages)
Storyblok solved our issue with the management team that wanted to have full control over the content and also the page.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking to have a platform that will offer you full control over what your application looks like, that's what you need. In ou main website, for example, is a simple Next.js application, consisting of two files: an index file and a generic file ("[...page.tsx]"). We have a design system in place where we connect to Storyblok, after all the website application is nearly 300kb in the end.
