Still in love with Contentful
What do you like best about the product?
I love the authoring experience in Contentful; it's very flexible for composing structured content. It's easy to teach the platform when content types follow best practices, and learning it is effortless.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think that they need to address competitors more directly. Maybe the devs don't love it like before?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They are continually improving the UI and Releases Workflows.
Great Flexibility for D2Cs
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful has unlocked ultimate flexibility for our website, enabling us to fully showcase our products and brand story for our customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cache refresh delay can make things slow for updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Combining a Headless set up with Contentful has allowed us to think beyond standard Shopify theme limitations and speeds.
Easy to manage, quick to set up
What do you like best about the product?
Simple but powerful CMS that empowers our marketing team to load fast, dynamic content across our digital presence.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much to dislike. Clean UI for users who prefer it, great API for devs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enabling content teams to dynamically switch up content across our digital presence without engineering time.
Simple content management
What do you like best about the product?
The overall user-friendliness is my favorite contentful feature. When I first began using the application, I required very little walk-through during training and find it extremely easy to train new hires.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish updates were reflected sooner. I know it doesn't actually take long. Still, when our company requests report updates, we typically hold an affiliated email until updates are reflected. This scenario is typically an issue when updating pdf attachments. (And really only an issue because we're pestered by team members who do not use contentful as they believe we have not made the requested updates until reflected on their end.)
There are two additional hangups I've encountered:
1. When uploading a large photo asset that I want to resize within Contentful they often time out/glitch using the resize feature and I will resize outside of contentful, then re-upload. This is a minor issue.
2. Strikethroughs are inconsistently displayed, sometimes correctly and sometimes showing the

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The best thing contentful solved was the ability to stop using an extremely outdated WordPress. We were legitimately counting down the days until we made the switch!
Flexible API and simple user interface
What do you like best about the product?
Their API and user interface is intuitive and easy to use. Both developers and business users at my company can use their software without requiring much help from our internal IT team. We built and awesome Reactjs site backed by a Contentful CMS system.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was easier to change back to a previous version of certain content. This feature would really allow for easier mistake handling when changes needed to be made quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Contentful as the headless CMS backend for my company's primary website. This allows us to create a custom frontend without being restricted to plugins or other bespoke frontend liimitations. Like Wordpress, but much more flexible and customizable and developer friendly because you don't have to learn PHP.
Improve development times and content management
What do you like best about the product?
UI it's really beautiful and the experience is pleasant to the users. Also, it helps the productivity of the teams in general.
From a dev perspective (my role) helps a lot, cause we don't need to be careful of the content in code, so we just leave the responsibility to the content authors and this improves development time.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the UI doesn't load changes in real-time so we need to reload the page to see the changes. If we make changes in nested content types, no button allows us to publish all the changes at the same time and we must accept each one individually (sometimes it is a bit annoying, although it is not a big problem)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows managing the content of the page without the need to make changes in code. This allows speeding up content management processes, and allows the team to make changes in production without the need to make changes in production and deploy them in different environments before seeing the final changes in production.
Super exited to work with Contentful CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful is an Easy, fast, and perfect scalable headless CMS. I've used it multiple times, and it was a pleasure to work with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybeybe some build-in content types would be helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Content Management System for websites and web apps.
Great experience
What do you like best about the product?
It’s a great software to track error codes and how they translate to other systems. Easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure that I dislike anything - It's quite an easy system to use for mapping these kinds of error codes. We use this to map multiple systems to one another
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mapping error codes from one API to the backend system. It allows our UI to read errors
Great headless CMS
What do you like best about the product?
The admin editor interface and content type system is clear to use and works well. Easy on boarding of non technical users. The headless CMS concept in general is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
Quite a lot of of feature requests for new admin editor features which seem to be slow to progress.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Content management systems - migrating especially from wordpress which was a nightmare to maintain and customise.
Amazing!
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful has been awesome to work with. I set it up to host the content for my software development company and it has been a breeze to use and create articles to generate inbound traffic. I've talked to a few staff members for help and they're always super quick and friendly. Fantastic company to work with so far!
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing! It's been a great tool for my business and I haven't run into any problems using it so far. The API for JS was very easy to use and took me only a day to integrate into my website.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contentful makes my life so much easier by allowing me to create & manage content for my page without having to modify the source code. In the past, I would edit these pages manually and if a customer wanted an edit, I would have to go modify the code to match their content. Contentful allows me to hand a log in to these customers so that they can easily edit, but also allows me to write one page that creates a shared template for common content. It's really quite amazing :)
