"So easy to use"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

I've only been using ButterCMS for a short amount of time in a localization project, but I'm so grateful for the ease of use when translating our current pages in English to International languages. It breaks down each line of text, making my verification and translation tasks quick and smooth.

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

Maybe I need to use it longer than a couple months to find out, but don't have any suggestions at the moment.

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

For my specific team, we've been tasked with taking all our current landing pages and localizing them in multiple languages. This is a huge undertaking with multiple people reviewing every page (the individual CSM, management and marketing), but with Butter CMS, it cuts out the stress and difficulty of such an immense, but very important milestone for our company.

"Fantastic partnership and product!"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

ButterCMS is a great product that fits all our company needs without having too many bells and whistles that complicate the product or the UI. What I like best, though, is the customer service. They've helped us do many projects or simplify the projects. Butter has added features when we've asked for them. They are super responsive to questions. Our company is now using Butter across 7 different areas of our business and it's been such a great partnership.

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

The user management was very difficult to manage but then Butter went in and completely updated the experience.

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use ButterCMS as a way to display dynamic content, creating entire pages hosted by Butter, including a microsite, and our blog is all housed in Butter.

"Butter CMS Easy to Use and Scalable for business"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

The small learning curve for onboarding. Customizable for our business needs. Supports internationalization and localization for content. An excellent choice for your Headless CMS needs. Smooth like Butter ;) Support is also quick responsive and willing to help in many scenarios.

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

Would be great to have a better way to migrate content for environments. A typical challenge we face is having a Staging and Production instance and moving content from STG to PROD, which has been somewhat cumbersome, however, the support team has many times kicked in and assisted with this migration of data, so kudos to them and their support team!

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a headless CMS, this allows us to cleanly separate our Code and Content, giving our Product Owners and Growth team the ability to update content as they see as necessary without the need to engage with a developer.

"The Headless CMS provides so much"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

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

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

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.

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

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.

"Great customer service - always"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

As admin, using ButterCMS to manage a website and blog is straightforward and easy. Our dev team enjoyed working with their technology, and any changes I need to have implemented can be done so quickly. But the absolute best is the personal touch and responsiveness of the support team. Even when we've struggled with some issue, they went above and beyond the help.

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

The platform requires more technical knowledge to implement changes, but that's what the developers are for.

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Website and blog management.

"Super Flexible CMS Solution"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

With only a little bit of our developer time, we built a powerful "curation" feature on our site that allowed our Content team to rapidly create new landing pages with curated video content on our site. Support was solid, as the ButterCMS team quickly answered any questions I had. In my opinion, the Components module is the most powerful part of the ButterCMS platform, and while it's a recent addition, it can supercharge what you are doing. Also, the price is very fair versus some of the competition who attempt to gouge your marketing budget.

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

I found the initial marketing kind of confusing – as some of the marketing sounds like there are no software engineering resources required. That is misleading. To do the initial integration and develop the actual ability to display content on the site DOES take engineering work, design, and custom code. Not a ton, but not trivial either, as you need to do design and development work. However, *after* the team builds what is needed, it's very flexible to change the content if they've done their job well. The Ruby library also needs some help as it's a little oddly built.

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping our content team build landing pages using reusable components that our design + dev team created for them. It's made it very easy for our marketing team to build out new campaigns without needing developer resources.

"Great CMS with Excellent Customer Service"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

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.

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

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

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

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.

"Functional, simple and fast"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

Our team can separate concerns; developers focus on developing, writers focurs on writing, and so...

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

Overall the tool is incredible; however, it can sometimes take a few milliseconds too long to load initially.

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our goal was to write articles and small texts without touching the code; in a simple way and fast enough for constant changes. Butter is helping us achieve that.

"Had to drop my account, but will be back"
What do you like best about Butter CMS?

The interface is seamless and simple to use. Everything is extremely well laid out and easy to find what you need to find. Integration to a vuejs instance was simple. Amazing documentation

What do you dislike about Butter CMS?

Really, I disliked nothing. Just not using a blog for our company anymore. But if you use a js framework then there is no other better option

What problems is Butter CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easy simple blog engine with backend cms. Allows a blogger to focus on writing and not diving in code
