Storyblok can handle anything we throw at it. It's the most capable CMS we have ever used.

  • July 27, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Storyblok allows us to create schemas without any limitations. Its flexibility is unmatched. We were able to create a massive block-based website and it had a solution to every requirement we had – from advanced editor permissions, to its own image optimization service.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I were to point something that's not great in Storyblok it would definitely be its dashboard. The UI (and, sometimes, the UX) could use a little work.
It could also be nice to have a "repeatable" field that could allow us to create a single-use schema (instead of having to create a new independent schema and using "block" with component whitelist).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're building apps and websites that allow more flexibility and independence for the clients

How a headless CMS should be built these days

  • December 04, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The headless CMS offers great features out of the box. It is particularly noteworthy that the block-based approach offers the developer maximum flexibility - the unique visual editor helps the customer a lot to make use of this feature without any technical knowledge.

The ease of use when implementing Storyblok into any application developed in any language is remarkable. Storyblok is a perfect fit when working with a modern techstack, e.g. JAMstack (with any component-based frontend framework). It helps to develop fast, being able to customize as much as needed and deliver quickly. Even extending the functionality in the Storyblok backend UI is possible through field-types and apps.
What do you dislike about the product?
Compared to other (headless) CMS it's hard to find criticism. The only thing which could have felt more intuitive for a beginner is the way to query the content delivery API - which does not follow default REST principles. But one get used to it quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storyblok enables a lot of opportunities to solve all kind of different problems. At our digital agency we use Storyblok to create marketing and e-commerce websites as well as custom business applications. As we use VueJS (NuxtJS) to build most of the applications, the block-based approach helps us to structure our applications, even when the CMS is not actually used by our clients. We are able to quickly combine and nest all kind of developed components to build a blazing fast JAMstack webapp.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I can recommend Storyblok to every company which wants to have a scalable, extendable and reliable solution. Best fit for any JAMstack application which needs a content management solution.

Happy so far, generally prefer open source solutions on principle, though.

  • November 23, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The content model. It's simply unrivaled and what I always wished for.
- Every other CMS our there still wants me to assign specific named fields for a content type instead of letting me use blocks of well-defined structure in a hierarchical way within a content item.
- There are not only collections of types of content, but an actual hierarchy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more convenient ways to query *all* content items in a way that includes Caching.
The grapthQL API
- is not cached (as far as I know)
- does not let me query different content types at once (when searching for fields that all of them still may have in common)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A typical corporate content thing.

A gem that bridges the gap between developer convenience and end user experience

  • November 19, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Storyblok can connect to every tech stack without effort.
- It's super easy to create new content types and retain relationships previously created.
- The visual editor is what our customers love and what helps developers understand business needs
- The whole product has a DevOps mindset which is very important in Enterprise: Workflows, backups, APIs. It's an invaluable tool inside every business process we have running
- The image service is on par with dedicated image SaaS tools and fully integrated into the solution. More value for my money
What do you dislike about the product?
I can hardly find anything to dislike. Every experience from setup to support has been nothing but positive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Maintaining customer sites of all sizes from small landing pages to multi-page documentations (2500+ pages). The immediate benefit I got was a true separation of concerns: People start managing content again, creating heaps of knowledge without being forced to think about representation. But due to the excellent visual editor, you literally never lose sight of the final result. This is UX at its finest Focus on the core task, make aware of the entire picture.

Due to the unique separation of content into separate units called Bloks, content teams are faster than never before. The content becomes a manageable mesh, rather than a deeply nested tree of pages. Content creators can navigate a lot easier.

Storyblok helped us to reduce the complexity of content management

  • November 19, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We have a lot of product data and user-generated content which we wanted to make available on our website. With traditional content management systems, it was very difficult to integrate those things. Storyblok gave us the flexibility we needed. Furthermore, we love the speed and performance of the Storyblok admin interface. This enables our content editors to do their job faster and spend less time waiting for things to load. Also, the visual editor works great and makes it possible for non-technical people to write and edit content as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are very satisfied and do not have any issues
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had several challenges which our old CMS:

1.) integrate our data which is produced for our apps and other products into our website
2.) improve the performance and loading speed of our website to improve SEO metrics
3.) make content editing faster and more fun for our content editors

Regarding 1: since Storyblok provides all the data as JSON and our product-data and user-generated content is served by a REST API it was easy to combine those two APIs. We were able to use programming languages and frameworks we love and know and weren't locked into the technology which was used and defined by the old legacy CMS.

Regarding 2: To make it easy for our content editors to work with the old CMS we installed lots of plugins and over time the website became pretty slow. Also after applying all caching and performance tips and tricks we weren't fully satisfied. Because of the great structure of the Storyblok API it was possible for us to implement very aggressive caching and basically save the final HTML on the webservers disk. This brought is nearly "static site" performance but with the possibilities to edit content within the Storyblok admin interface.

Regarding 3: Another problem which was very annoying for our content editors, was the problem that the admin interface of the old CMS loaded very slowly. Therefore they spent most of the time waiting for the admin interface to load. Even correcting a typo took them minutes because they needed to navigate through the site structure and needed to wait on each click. The Storyblok admin interface is very fast and snappy and you can click through it without spending time looking at the loading spinner. Also, the visual editor and live updates are a great improvement for our content editors. Now they can edit content very fast and are not slowed down by the CMS tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think it's important to understand the concept of a headless-CMS and how it is different from a traditional CMS. Of course, there are open-source CMS which are free but Storyblok offers a lot for the price, and for us, the break-even was from day one. It enabled us to focus on creating an awesome website and writing great content and didn't have to think about all the infrastructure topics which come along when you have to manage your own open-source solution.

Storyblok, the headless CMS of our enterprise JAMstack solution

  • November 18, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is incredibly good to work with:
Editors love the visual editor and the freedom to change content within seconds, developers love the component structure and the helpful team behind Storyblok.
What do you dislike about the product?
We would love to see a customizable naming of the components for the editors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are developing enterprise-scale websites with Storyblok and Netlify. Now our clients have got a future-proof web development architecture. The benefits are top performance, scalability and ease of use for the businesses. Our clients do save $ in comparison with CMS solutions like AEM without compromises on their product website.
