Contentful Reviews & Product Details

Contentful makes it easy for our team to create and manage website content without having to worry about messing up the code! Paired with GatsbyJS, they've made website development and management easier than imaginable. They're quick to answer questions, allow for ultimate content modeling flexibility, quick querying via Graphql, and our developer loves working with them. Gone are the days of operating a headless WP, Drupal or *insert old tech here*, security updates, and complicated plugins - we use Contentful.

The learning curve for those who are unfamiliar with CMS tools. The rich text editor is also something that can use some improvement.

A faster, more reliable website that we can't break! A robust tool that allows for customization while maintaining structured content throughout the site.

Easy integration and flexibility to bild a high class user experience.

The Image Optimization could be a little bit better - but great to have these build in.

We build high availability digital products.

The flexibility of the solution! It plugs and plays so well with other best of breed solutions.

There is a bit of a learning curve for those familiar with traditional CMS's.

We're creating rich, engaging digital experiences on contentful, it's helped our clients accelerate speed to market, and allowed them to truly leverage their content in an omni channel way.

For firms with monolithic WCMS software and IT resource dependency, Contentful is designed to co-exist with legacy content and data repositories, and it is so popular that business leaders can design and launch new digital products without being hamstrung by legacy IT.

Contentful product marketing is still more of a "tech developers love us" messaging. Contentful could do a better job of more easily describing how quickly they solve business problems for marketers, sales leadership, HR executives and digital product leaders.

Digital wealth management and investing tools. We've realized super fast go-to-market time frames with helping grow revenue by having digitized services to offer to new markets.

One of the more user-friendly CMS's out there. Really a joy to use and easy to understand. Create new content models and content is simple and intuitive.

The only thing that confused me was lack of single-use type entries.

We use it to run a marketing site.

I love the flexibility of contentful. It gives you all the freedom that you need to create amazing apps. Working with the Webapp is lots of fun. It's simple to use, fast and you can collaborate with a big team and manage multiple languages in a simple way. In combination with gatsby an amazing stack to build fast, modern sites!

With great power comes great responsibility. Since contentful is so flexible, you certainly need some experience to get the most out of it. It takes a bit of time to fully understand all concepts from content types to internationalization but it is worth learning it and the resources on the website (plus learning center) make the learning efficient and fun.

I want fast and user friendly websites and the combination of gatsby + contentful gives me exactly this. Plus, our project is multilingual and we need to be able to add new languages without too much effort and be able to manage content in a bigger team. Another advantage is that we are going to manage several Apps through one CMS.

The ability to change content state (as draft, published, etc.). Very dynamic and useful. Easy to integrate using its API and key/environment structure.

A little bit difficult to set a custom data structure without providing JSON structure

Fast content serving (for images in my case). It is really fast, just what I needed.

Contentful is an extremely stable, secure and user-friendly system with high availability and speed. As an NPO, we can benefit from an extremely generous NPO price plan.

It's a pity we can't benefit from all the new features because the NPO pricing model has been adjusted. We'd be very happy to pay part of the cost, but we can't keep up with the "large space" model.

Thanks to Contentful, we have converted to a Headless CMS infrastructure and benefit from the very well structured input masks for our editors.

The provided API is quite fast and reliable. When it comes to uploading media, Contentful makes this process easier and faster than other similar CMS tools. Besides, it is a secured platform, counting with a very reliable system of verification and control of input entries and it has a high level of flexibility, so you can structure your data in any way you want and. The company also provides help to integrate with a different application based on language Java, C# and many more . Contentful makes very easy to sort and edit your content.

Sometimes we need to deal with HTML, CSS, and Javascript, these things are not handled in Contentful as efficiently as I'd like. I mean, it's not bad, but it’s only useful if you want to add several contents at the same time. However, some of my colleagues have told me its biggest issue has to do with integration, because it doesn’t support many solutions. Personally, I haven't proven this.

This is a great tool to manage content. In my previous company, we worked with PatriotSystem and it was good, but Contentful is a better CMS in so many ways . Content API is quite fast and so reliable, all our Marketing actions can be completely done in a couple of minutes. Contenful CMS provide space a nice content management solution which is quite handy in working with the different project.

The interface is modern and very clean. It remains me of WordPress and how I’m a regular user for this platform, I could learn how to use it quickly. This familiarity made me felt like I already knew the software even before I started using it. The image usage is very simple to learn and modify. What I like the most is the ability to manage fields, being able to add, cut, move or remove them.

Contentful lacks of some spelling tools to check grammar. You have to add a plug-in in order to review the grammar of your content. Also, It does not integrate with Grammarly, what I consider to be the best tool for checking grammar, so you have to use another one. And, if you want to get the best out of Contentful, it requires some hard dev resources.

Contentful is a very used tool in the Marketing department of my company. It performs as our selected platform for loading content into apps, rather if it is on iOS or Android, and to pull down cloud content. It is a great tool to make your content reach international audiences with specific topics or content type (video, image, audio, etc).
