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 html.

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The best thing contentful solved was the ability to stop using an extremely outdated WordPress.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!
A flexible multi channel content management system
What do you like best about the product?
Something that I like about this tool is that it allows, in an understandable and, above all, reliable way, the possibility of sharing content on any platform without having to activate or integrate other systems. This cloud-based tool has a good alert system, without leaving aside security with its access controls, this being a good multi-channel marketing tool available in several languages
What do you dislike about the product?
My experience with the tool has not had any problems, it has quite sophisticated functions and is aimed at new professionals, this system allows the content scheduling processes to be more precise and more reliable in the times that the professional schedules
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
What I like the most about this tool is its versatility and the ease it shows from the first time they register; the tool allows you to distribute the contents, it also allows you to create the entries that are required without problems
Contentful has enabled us to deliver multi-lingual, multi-market content at scale
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful is very flexible and has a great ecosystem of quality apps and a massive community of developers supporting it. For content managers, it's the best content editing experience for enterprise platforms on the market.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very little, actually. The product team is very open about its roadmap and involves customers in early access programs to ensure the solution meets their needs. The entry-level plan is perhaps a bit limited if you're looking to get started with headless, MACH-based solutions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing a multilocal, multilingual enterprise platform with a small and agile team. Launching new campaigns, uploading or modifying content, distributing it across channels, and making your platform work harder for the brand are straightforward. The API-first approach also enables a lot of integrations with best-in-class solutions.
A great headless CMS platform
What do you like best about the product?
What I liked best about Contentful was the ability to make changes throughout the entire website due to its headless format.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is a bit steep, and depending on what features you'd like, having a developer on the team is a must.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contentful allows us to optimize SEO with ease.
The perfect tool to empower marketing teams
What do you like best about the product?
Contentfull makes landing page creation quick and easy. Anyone on a marketing team can build a beautiful page in minutes
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that can be a problem with Contentfull is that a modification on a block can lead to changes on other pages. So you have to be very careful!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team is autonomous in building web pages. No one needs technical knowledge
Great way to manage large sets of all kinds of web content
What do you like best about the product?
It fills a specific gap in any digital ecosystem and makes it easy to maintain or insert vast sets of content.
What do you dislike about the product?
At scale it becomes too expensive and the business case to integrate/build it yourself becomes more healthy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fast, easy and most of all integrated content information.
Robust CMS but needs a lot of resources
What do you like best about the product?
Contentful is a very robust CMS that can accomplish a lot. We were looking into it for multi-country translations.
What do you dislike about the product?
We were hoping for a simipler solution. However, the build was more intensive then our ROI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A content management system. For us it didn't meet our needs since it was too advanced.
Modular Headless CMS
What do you like best about the product?
The modularity of Contentful is fantastic. If a single entry gets changed, any references to that entry will also be updated, saving the editor loads of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
The modularity has its downsides -- if we want to copy pages in the CMS, we can not use the native "Duplicate" feature because all modules on Page B are references to page A.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a headless CMS that would be easy to stand up for our developers and easy for content editors to use. Contentful's UI feels really intuitive.
Flexibility and scalability of your content management
What do you like best about the product?
The solution is completely integrated with our headless e-commerce and allows us to handle content with a lot of flexibility.
What do you dislike about the product?
Onboarding could be improved so we can be completely autonomous and handle our content models better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Handle a seamless front for our web and native solution
Our choice for headless CMS
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use is the best part. We have users from different teams with different experiences and tech skills using Contentful and everyone is able to quickly do all fixes and updates for the website.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are using Gatsby for our website and we have some issues with preview builds - we'd need to wait for 10-15 minutes to see the preview. We've fixed it now with a new Gatsby Cloud update.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our website is built on Gatsby and before Contentful only engineers could do changes to the website. Contentful enabled our marketing team to own a marketing website and be able to make all of the updates much faster.
