Butter CMS Reviews & Product Details

It's super easy to setup and use in development, setting up keys to identify content, and quickly viewing a example response from the api buttercms dashboard gives you confidence to implement the calls in your codebase and map the data structures to the relevant places.

We haven't run into anything problematic just yet! :)

We've decoupled the addition/updating of marketing/dynamic content from our different teams, from something that only the development team would be able to do previously with new releases, to something the marketing team can do at any moment.

The customer support team is highly responsive and willing to help me in any way. Especially when it comes to data migration from one environment to another environment, They are more than just helpful. Friendly UI to manage contents

IT would be great if there's a way to migrate content without asking the customer support team. But Them being available to me and supportive was super helpful.

Dynamic content with simplicity to support SEO without having to re-deploy our apps, I could change the customer-facing content quickly with a friendly UI that enables non-technical people to manage the platform.

The CMS has everything you need to publish your content in quickly and easily. There's no faff with ButterCMS. And if you do need any help, they are always on hand to help you via their livechat.

No real downsides to ButterCMS; it does everything we need it to.

We needed a CMS to house all our content that had fast load times and didn't need a lot of development time to implement. ButterCMS fit the bill perfectly.

Adding content to whatever framework you want is extremely easy with ButterCMS. I am very impressed with this workflow, and will recommend ButterCMS in the future.

There are certain features that are missing that would be desireable, but Nikki from ButterCMS is extremely welcoming on any feature requests, so I feel assured that feedback is listened to and considered.

We were able to create a generalized PageType with a bunch of "components" (writeable data groupings) that can be added to a "page" at will. Through this, we created complementing React components that would render each of these page components and consumed them in a constructor that would then render them in the order added in ButterCMS. This allows us to create any page we want via Butter, and then it will immediately be added to our website.

It was really easy to get started and retrieve some response from the api.

I wish there's a way to get a timestamp of every publish, and the ability to revert back to a specific timestamp to restore previous changes.

We needed an easy way for administrators to update the content w/o needing to push code to our repo, and butter CMS provided that.

I like the easy to use page design functionality. It is super intuitive and works great. Additionally, when a certain aspect of the preview functionality wasn't working correctly with out setup (and this had to do with an issue that was specific to our existing website), Butter CMS Made a code change to fix our problem in UNDER 3 DAYS. This just shows their incredible customer service and willingness to do whatever it takes to meet your needs.

The only qualm I have about this software is the inability to push content from stage->production. Although, this can be overcome by simply creating a draft of your page on production, and waiting to publish it, it would be ideal to be able to work on stage, then push any content to prod. (You can push schema from stage to prod, but not page content)

We're solving the problems we were facing by using an outdated inefficient CMS, we have realized improved user experience from our customers, as well as an easier to manage CMS.

Butter CMS was extremely easy to integrate into our Node.js application and the docs made everything clear. The interface/UI was easy to use and packed with enough features to act as an excellent blogging platform. Post/Page data was always lightning fast to load. The support was always friendly and helpful.

The pricing tiers may not match all use cases.

Setting up a CMS was too much overhead for our lightweight application. Butter CMS made adding an SEO optimized block to your site extremely easy.

I like the simplicity of ButterCMS. I used many platforms before and ButterCMS is the easiest to use as far as I know. Especially formatting texts such as font, text size, heading...etc is so flexible and I do not have to be limited by the given options.

Setting up takes time, but once you set up everything, it will go smoothly. Also, if it would be perfect if we can decide the space between the rows. For the technical writers, the size of code snippets might be a problem.

I am uploading technical articles and it makes uploading and publishing processes easier than other platforms. Simple and flexible. I can play with my texts like I am working on Word. That's the best part.

I've reached out to the Butter CMS support staff several times, and each time, they have been extremely responsive, helpful, and comprehensive! In her latest response, Nikki included a video and a screenshot to help diagnose and walkthrough the problem, which proved invaluable to my team.

I don't have anything to share for this.

I am primarily using butter to add content to our company's website.

They have clear documentations and an easy to use API.

They can send too many email reminders for various things at times.

It's a great headless CMS service to integrate a blog in custom coded sites.

Butter was easy to use and implement. I was looking to ship something quick and Butter definitely didn't disappoint!

We haven't found anything we dislike yet.

Replaced our custom CMS. Saved me a bunch of work. Increased our app performance.

Easy to use, amazing support team that are fast and reliable.

User management is a little clunky, but workable.

Butter CMS has really helped us manage our blog content in a consistent, reliable fashion.

ButterCMS is very useful in giving us the flexibility to create a website exactly to our liking through code, while still allowing the content to be edited without the need to know how to write code. I also appreciate the great customer support that is received when we have questions or issues.

there is nothing I do not like about ButterCMS

We are able to make changes to our website without having to always ask a developer to make the changes for us

The ability to publish, manage or update content without the help of our engineering team. Great documentation and customer support. Overall, great value at a great price.

Implementation is still a bit too technical for me to really say, with authority, that I dislike anything.

Removing the need for a WordPress blog and a redirect. Our ultimate goal was to gain the SEO benefits of having all keyword-rich content on our domain and Butter helped us do it with ease.

Documentation and customer support. Jake has responded quickly both times I had questions. The documentation is clear for just about any modern tech stack.

We were initially hesitant if Butter would work with our use case (a custom blog with specific routes, css, etc.) and nearly switched to WordPress because we determined we wouldn't be able to use the 300 blog posts included in the startup tier; however, after speaking with Jake, he informed us that we can do what we needed with the Page Types feature. I think they were able to work with us on the pricing given our particular situation. I think maybe adding a pricing tier that favors pages instead of blog posts would help those in a similar situation as us reach a decision. We are very glad to have reached out to the Butter Support team in retrospect.

SEO, hot swapping content, reusability within our own web application.

Butter CMS for our purposes is a robust CMS. We have a very deep tech team and really only use Butter CMS as a repository for our posts. There are other features that I would encourage our Marketing team to take advantage of, like collections and pages.

It would be nice to retrieve posts using multiple tags.

We have multiple sites that use similar posts. We are using tagging to indicate which sites the posts should appear on.

Ease of use: once implemented, we can add, update and remove pages and components easily. Customer support has also been outstanding.

The structure of pages and components is not entirely intuitive.

ButterCMS allows us to rapidly change our public website without coding. This allows well-trained users in sales/marketing and other departments to make their own changes without significant IT time being spent.

It is a simple CMS that makes learning and getting going easy. Training needed is minimal, so getting new team mates on board is always a breeze.

The search feature can be improved. How past blog posts are displayed can be improved. It is fundamental at the moment.

Butter helps us maintain our blog. Publishing and updating is taken care of through Butter. It helps improve the rate of publishing and ease of maintainenance.

Butter has a lot of potential to take the CMS market by storm. The platform is very versatile and powerful, but the team at Butter is what makes it great. They are responsive and very committed to making their product great and are always making sure their clients have the best experience by making continual improvements and actually listening to customer needs.

It's excellent for developers but not the greatest for designers. There is no WYSIWYG integration and code can often be trickier to implement than it should be. Though there are workarounds, it feels like there are some missing tools that could make the process smoother.

Butter has given us the ability to leverage aspects of our online presence that we struggled with before. For example, we have developed a much more robust UI experience by leveraging components for stronger customer traction.

Great UI and easy to manage different websites and formats all n on location.

Ability to add functionality from one site to another without getting development team involved

Being able to quickly adapt and augment our content needs across numerous websites .
