Contentful's professional services team made our platform migration a breeze
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful's professional services team helped us quickly and efficiently migrate our content from Drupal. They were highly responsive to questions, suggested solutions to complex challenges, and were a pleasure to work with all around. I can confidently say that our re-platforming efforts would've taken much longer with many more roadblocks if we had not had their support.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's very little I disliked! Obviously, they were a support mechanism and couldn't do the work for us, so we still had to figure out some problems on our own. However, there was never a problem that I couldn't address with them, and they were able to assist as much as possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our previous CMS was not meeting our needs. It was laborious to make content updates and imposed limitations on our digital experience. By contrast, Contentful's content platform allows for a seamless authoring experience that can scale across all of our digital properties.
We had a flawless experience using Contentful
What do you like best about the product?
We enjoyed the customizability of content modules of Contentful to meet our needs to serve text, video and audio content.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform is straightforward to use, even for non-technical with a minimal amount of training.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating content to be updated dynamically in a mobile application.
Great overall experience with the platform
What do you like best about the product?
It is simple and flat. It was easy to adapt. Most of our developers enjoy using Contentful, easy-to-build or find already-built Apps (widgets; you guys chose a confusing name).
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have something in particular that I dislike. Maybe taking the flat structure a level too high. I would like to have folders at least for the assets. It would make organizing easier when used from other places over the Assets API. When using your cloud UI, it works great, but its quite a nightmare when we have to use that in our applications directly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very simple, but powerful tool. Makes it easier to integrate in our current setup. Especially for assets its a game changer. Now our products are in sync so we only need to use one set of assets.
100% customizable and reliable
What do you like best about the product?
The level of customization we got with it. Also, it's not simple, but all the team got to understand, and Marketing is now free to create content fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
The nested approach of components is what was more complext to explain to the team. And it has sometimes created problems, especially during the first weeks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enabling all teams create and modify our webpage, without needing any dev work.
Great headless CMS with many features out of the box and a great API and CLI
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Contentful has a user-friendly interface, the ability to create and manage content in multiple languages, and its robust API, making it easy to integrate with other applications and services. Additionally, Contentful offers a flexible and scalable architecture that allows users to quickly and easily create and manage content for websites, apps, and other digital channels.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its learning curve can be steep for users new to content management systems. Additionally, some users may find the platform complex and overwhelming, with many features and options that can be difficult to navigate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have multiple pages editable by many cross-functional teams at my company. We sometimes want to keep things open to some groups and not for other groups. Contentful has a good Role Based Access Management approach that helps us keep the gates in place.
Contentful is a powerful, extensible platform that continues to get better
What do you like best about the product?
What I love most about Contentful is how quickly you can prototype a solution and get it production ready.
What do you dislike about the product?
Contentful has a lot of nooks and crannies that need attention and polish. As you get more advanced with the platform and your custom integrations, you will find blockers and sharp edges to things I believe their product managers need to recognize and prioritize.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Operating content platforms at enterprise scale, Contentful has solved our constant waste of resources building custom CMS solutions in our various micro services. Uniting many atomic, independent teams on one content platform is no easy task, but the approachability and flexibility of Contentful has drastically reduced the fatigue for both our engineering teams and our content editing teams.
