What do you dislike about the product?
The "download" button is right next to the "delete" button on the dropdown menu on images, and I've accidently deleted photos that I can't find again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's easier to get more team members onboarded because it's so much easier to conceptualize than our last platform.
Amazing content manager
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful is Amazing when handling and managing content; the API's are well defined and are easy to use, the API's it's what I like the most.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is not so intuitive; it's challenging to search for content; when searching, I have sometimes press `enter` and everything related to the search gets messed up, then I have to delete at least one letter, and I can continue my search.
I think this is because Contentful's UI starts searching for every key pressed and not when we press the `enter` key.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it at Xoom to deliver all the client-side content, including email and SMS content. We have encountered that it's easy to handle translations using their APIs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please consider to use your own UI on top of the Contentful APIs if you have a dedicated content team, this is because the Contentful's UI search is sometimes challenging to use.
Very intuitive tool to help build great looking content pages.
What do you like best about the product?
The library of the useful modules is great and very user friendly. I would like to see more modules introduced in the future for sure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main page layout needs a little more pictorial or naming possibility for each module so we know exactly which one we are using without opening the module.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The usefulness and user-friendly ness and quick turnaround help us build great content which is quick and visible or review in real-time.
Contentful is a nice enterprise solution for localization
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use, the web interface is super easy to use and very friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have kind of mixed feelings about being able to modify the content without actually hitting the save button.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Localizing all the content on the site, ease of use, and quick connectivity and response times
Our whole team is loving Contentful!
What do you like best about the product?
We were able to vastly increase our web capabilities with a small amount of set-up!
What do you dislike about the product?
We haven't discovered any downsides yet!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contentful is incredibly easy to use for technical and non-technical folks. After integrations, we are able to update our site and run experiments without requiring dev time, so we're faster & more efficient.
Retailer review
What do you like best about the product?
The site is really easy to use and self-explanatory - as a new member of my team, I needed minimal training and can quite easily figure things out myself.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have had a couple of issues with overlapping media - it would be good to flag when two pieces of media clash as multiple media owners are using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Setting publications/unpublish is great - initially, we were doing this manually, and media was left live, and we also couldn't have changeover on the weekend - so this has opened up a lot of options.
We are teachers, We DO NOT want to manage Databases!

Contentful as the only content platform that will help us!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are teachers and nothing is more pleasant than teaching! We DO NOT want to manage Databases and Contentful as the only content platform that will help us!

Super easy to implement and use
What do you like best about the product?
Great for everyone who is creating the site, from API integration to less technical content management. It is incredibly effective and simple. I personally love the little fun snippets / questions that pop up when waiting a small moment for the page to load.
What do you dislike about the product?
A little back button would be useful. When changing or tweaking content sometimes you're keen to go back a few steps to what was previously written, the version inbetween the last publish and the new one when you are editing on the fly. It means some creativity it is lost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We required a simple CMS to include in the rebuild of our entire platform and after assessing other headless CMS we felt Contentful was right for our needs. Contentful also demonstrate great ethos as a company which is important for us.
Smooth UX, excellent API
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful has made it extremely easy to split the responsibilities for some of our web applications and allow development to operate separately from Content management. We're a non-technical organisation with staff having a wide range of experience levels and comfort regarding using technology so the ease-of-use and friendliness of Contentful's UI has been great.
From a dev perspective having such flexible GraphQL/REST access to the data to pipe into multiple mediums is great.

What do you dislike about the product?
Only missing feature I can think of is the ability to batch webhook requests. So no matter how many updates are made in [window of time] only one webhook request will be fired. Would save a lot of build minutes when it comes to static site rebuilding.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Separating our content and content-editing concerns from our presentational concerns has been a huge advantage. The team responsible for managing the data can operate separately from the team responsible for development, and multiple methods can be used to present that data to our organization's clients. We work with vulnerable people and not all are comfortable with using the internet to receive information, so we're able to present the same data using automatically generated leaflets and digital signage in our waiting rooms for the rest.
