Easy to setup and even easier to use.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of setup with my Astro site and ease of use. They also offer an incredibly generous free tier.

Some of Storyblok's docs could use some work, and some of their verbiage in their api feels very...proprietary.

It is hosting my blogs and associated assets, making it easy to serve those posts to my website.
A very user friendly backend, for great frontend experience

Nothing very important so far, but I would like to have some more features maybe.

Best tool to manage content.
What do you like best about the product?

When I open my website in my browser, I always get the preview version instead of the published one. This is a minor thing.

With Storyblok, I can quickly and easily manage and update my company's website.
Awesome tool for rapid marketing teams

Really good and "native" like SDK's with Vue ecosystem. Easy to use for non-technical people.

Anyone on marketing team can manage our website content
Customisable website tailored for developers and marketing
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Storyblok is how customisable it makes websites for both marketing teams adding content to their website and developers writing the code for specific bloks. While most CMSs throw everything at you and you spend time trying to figure out how to build what you are looking, Storyblok passes the reins to the developer who can then create exactly what is needed for the specific website in development. The live preview editor was a key selling point for me, being able to preview how the website would look before deployment was important and a step up from previous custom developed CMSs. As a developer, documentation and easy integration is key for create a website. Storyblok has a plethora of documentation for connecting the platform to a custom built site and I was able to follow along the tutorial for connecting it to a Nuxt application. The fact that all is really needed to connect it is some access tokens makes the implementation very easy.
For what few questions I have asked via the help section's chat have had fairly timed responses which were both useful and friendly. The use of a free tier is what made me use it as I could test out the platform and learn how to use without worrying about a payment. Additionally the free tier meant I could host websites and not need to pay until the website was recieving high amounts of traffic, aty which point it would be viable to pick a paid plan.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are/were several little issues but nothing that made me not consider Storyblok. While I did say there was a plethora of documentation and a tutorial on using it with Nuxt, the tutorial was unfinished at the time I was building the site. This did lead to some frustartion as I tried to work out how to deploy a live environment that could be previewed by someone other than a dev running localhost. I was able to accomplish this having one site running 'yarn build' and another seperate site that ran 'yarn generate' (this would be the live site) which using a webhook would run evrytime something was published/unpublished. Another little issue was that the visual editor requires a https, which broke when running on localhost. I was able to do some research and created a certificate so I could run https on a localhost port but there was no documentation on this. Would've been ideal if there was a specific localhost port Storyblok would recognise as to not need https. The last little issue was regarding webhooks, when multiple items need to be published I would tick them and then click publish. However, this would call the webhook multiple times, fortunetly I use Netlify which only ran the latest.
The one big issue I had was the lack of integartions with other platforms. While major website builders like Squarespace and Wordpress have integartions with CRMs, ecommerce and other platforms, Storyblok is notable absent. I suppose this is kind of the point as the developer would be these integartions into the custom site, but if there were functions or other integrations Storyblok could add, it would make the only platform I would want and need.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My previous CMS of choice was Contentful. It was handy for writing blog and other similair types of content like 'Projects' on my personal portfolio website. However, in terms of making a fully customisable site, a template I found for ot wasn't very good as the options were limiting. I was using Gatsby at the time but I'm not a fan of React and prefer Vue so Nuxt.js was the front end I wanted to use. In my research I discovered Storyblok which was highly configurable and customisable for the user. The biggest selling point was the visual editor. I had in a prevoius role managed a website built in Laravel which was connect to a Django admin for its content. This like contentful didn't look great, especially in comparison to the larger website builders like Wordpress or Squarespace. Storyblok offering the visual editor was the biggest benefit.
I love storyblok
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to use storyblok.
The way of duplicating content, the easyness of the components
Creating and updating all the environment in general makes it so easy to work and do things quite fast.
I love how you can copy components in between spaces even, this is great personally since we work with affiliate pages that have their own spaces, but also have very similar content than our global website. Is just copy and paste, and just tweak some little things. This makes my job very fast and easy tbh.

What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside as of now, but I'm not sure if it is Storyblok issue or if it is coming from the development side, is the amount of time that it takes to build and render the page after publishing. As of now it takes about 5-6 minutes after publishing for it to appear on the live page. Besides that, I don't have a downside yet, some bugs we encounter are coming from our dev side but not from the platform in general.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is scalability 100%
The way we could replicate the spaces for our organization and the affiliates we handle went pretty smooth and fast. We migrated about 70 sites in a record time thanks to Storyblok
