"Good Platform for Growing Businesses"
What do you like best about Contentful?

Contentful's platform has allowed us to easily create and modify content structures for our growing business. Contentful has been well received by our developers and content publishing teams alike. The addition of App Frameworks has been valuable for extending the default input fields and handling custom JSON data structures.

What do you dislike about Contentful?

Contentful's terminology can be confusing to new users. A guide that explains the relationships between Organizations, Spaces, Roles, etc would be helpful. Additionally, the platform could benefit from a better mobile content publishing experience.

What problems is Contentful solving and how is that benefiting you?

Publishing content through Contentful enables us to connect various digital products to a single content source. As our business grew, so did the platforms we needed to support. A headless product like Contentful allowed us to connect any instance to a single content source, and improved our publishing workflow.

"A very powerful tool that I use daily in my work"
What do you like best about Contentful?

I like being able to control, manage and play with the display of the menu and its different sub-categories. The integration with Shopify and Algolia makes it possible to work with a common database and simplifies the work process.

What do you dislike about Contentful?

It's hard to think of a flaw in the tool. If there's one thing I can think of, it's that as a precautionary measure, in my team, we avoid logging into the platform and making changes at the same time to prevent version errors.

What problems is Contentful solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's mainly about aesthetics and menu design. It is adding banners here and there on the site. It allows us to gain fluidity and the immediacy of changes, and the ability to see the different versions that have been created as changes are made makes it a very reliable tool.
