In general, I have not presented any option that requires this system or that I consider does not work well, it is easy to understand it, so it is much easier for a professional to work with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When we talked about having a system that would improve operations, the need arose to have a program that would allow content to be shared quickly and it is something that this system has allowed in recent years, as well as how to distribute it quickly.

We built an accessible website by using Contentful
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Contentful forces you to think about the way the content is structured. You need to create a Content Model for each different piece of content.
For example, we built a website that is heavily based on code samples. We have created a CodeSample object, which contains one or more CodeBlock objects. A CodeBlock is written in a certain ProgrammingLanguage, and that ProgrammingLanguage is available on a certain Platform. This setup allowed us to write multi-platform code samples in a structured way.
Our team also liked that Contentful comes with a GraphQL API to retrieve content in any way you can think of. Plus, we saved time by using the Typescript client library in our project.
It also helped us a lot that the features of Contentful are documented extensively.

What do you dislike about the product?
When we started using Contentful, there was no support for tables. This was a big downside for us, as we heavily used tables in our old website. You had to create your UI extension to create tables. In April 2022 we were delighted to read that Contentful now supported Tables in Rich Text.
When you have a lot of content, finding the exact piece of content you need to edit can become difficult. It helps to filter based on Content Model and to write good internal names for your content pieces.
You often need to click through multiple levels of content to reach the piece you are looking for. Each level overlays the other, once you have 5+ levels it becomes challenging to remember each underlaying layer in the editor.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contentful helped us to structure our content, and is now helping us to keep our website accessible because we have full control over the data which needs to be entered. For example, we have made it opt-out to write an alt-text for each image, instead of opt-in like most Content Management Systems.
Best CMS for Content As A Service Implementation
What do you like best about the product?
As I have worked on other CMS systems such as Wordpress and AEM, I like contentful for its easy-to-use interface. As it follows the content model approach, you can create your own data structure and then use it without any restrictions on Data Set. Content Editing and retrieving the authored content is straightforward. Pricing is justifiable with respect to the features it offers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it has a learning curve for people migrating from traditional CMS. You might need to use the different screens to author the content and preview it. Page linking is not possible, you might need to build custom data set.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it to author content for our website, we do have a plan to use the exact data for our Android App which is in the pipeline. It has helped us to organize our data and secure it.

Flexibility coming from components structure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too much dependencies from Product Team/Dev team.
