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.
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.
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.
Contentfull makes landing page creation quick and easy. Anyone on a marketing team can build a beautiful page in minutes
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!
My team is autonomous in building web pages. No one needs technical knowledge
easy to use numerous possibilities easy to keep an overview of what is published and what not fast from different places in the world
you need your developers to program all features that you need no tree structure
easy to access for our global team - cloud hosting re-use content in multiple pages
It has an intuitive user interface, quite possibly the easiest to use I have seen from a headless CMS. Engineers that are new to it seem to take to it quickly because of the comprehensive documentation.
Pricing is a bit high at the lowest non-free tier, especially for early stage companies that want the robustness of the platform but can't afford several hundred dollars per month.
It gives us a flexible place to manage a diverse array of content - and easy ways of tagging, classifying, and cataloging it. It saves a lot of time when making changes on-the-fly.
Contentful as a CMS is pretty great, but the best feature was the ability to integrate into so many things easily. There's a plugin for Contentful everywhere we needed.
When data gets stale, updating thousands of localized pieces of content can be challenging.
Contentful let us localize and organize content.
Ability to track the analytics in real-time, and the speed of the media uploads. It's extremely important during active weather.
the tags are a little clunky to use, and the interface could use a little work.
A way to see engagement across the myriad of our platforms.
We as an NGO have the problem to find great software to build our app and have it at an affordable price. Contentful offers all functionalities we need for our basic application and is highly customizable.
It is a little tougher in the beginning to learn everything you need to know about the tool. But when you come from a little CMS experience, you will get along quite quickly
Contentful offers the chance to build custom datamodels, so we can structure our content and sites in a way it is tailored for our need. That is the biggest upside.
It´s an easy tool to help you create and/or modify websites. The best feature in my opinion? the autosave, you can count on Contentful to have your back if anything happens as all your work will be there where you left it. It has a friendly interface that allows you to work on the platform even if you´re new to it (I find it to be intuitive). Apiece of advice: Make sure to publish changes before publishing ;)
Sometimes things are "hidden" in the pages e.g you need to modify a specific section within the page, you´ll have to click several times in a section before you find it and you need to pay attention to what you´re modifying as it is really easy to make changes that will reflect in other linked pages.
Accelerating the webpage creation without stealing time from the developers for creating and updating pages for resources/assets as this allows us to do it via self-service.
I've used many CMS before and Contentful is one of the best. We have a very complex content production process with many global sites and locales and Contentful handles it all very well. Also seems to be easy for our developers to build on top of. As a Content Marketer myself, it allows my team to produce a variety of content and is reliable.
I'd like to be able to view more than 40 entries on a single page to have an easier view of a lot of content on one page. Also the ability to export to a CSV a list of entries by their URL so we can have a list of articles/entries directly from Contentful.
Contentful helps solve the issue of producing content a global scale with a distributed team. It also helps validate checks within content, and allow developers to build on the platform to customize to our needs.
The ability to support multiple locales in a modern framework, without impacting performance, and just as importantly streamlining our translators' workflow.
We haven't come across any dislikes yet.
Contentful is helping us to separate the data from the presentation layer, and scaling locale support our museum exhibits, and user stories without sacrificing performance or ease of use.
