Contentful already has an ecosystem and tooling. Some standard solutions/plugins are already implemented, and you can focus on the frontend part. Contentful Live Status webpage like every big guy has
You still need to learn "contentful" way of cooking graphQL The entry threshold is relatively high Dependancy from AWS: when half of the internet is down, some parts of the system are inaccessible. The concern is about fragility: some data is broken - everything is broken (
Marketing website for a big customer It is incredibly flexible and front-end developer-friendly. We don't have any backend guy on our team.
The functionality of the platform and how easy it is to find things within if you're properly labeling your entries.
I wish there was a way to see a page as you're editing it (a preview).
One major benefit is that it stores all entries so that even if you delete it from where it originally was, it is stored in your history.
I believe Contentful provides a dynamic way of collaborating and creating amongst different needs & stakeholders. It's a friendly reminder that you can get things done and all involved-parts will know about it. From a project management standpoint, it's a time saver:)
At this point, no dislikes. Contentful is heading to a great direction.
We are migrating lots of content and repurposing those directly in Contentful. It's a more robust solution and with a clean vision.
The Contentful UI and the customization is the best part of Contentful. We have many more options than we had before, and even people who are not tech savvy find it easy to use and understand. We changed from Expression Engine to Contentful and it's been a wonderful move.
It would be nice to get more updates on future releases.
We were finding our past CMS to be very clunky and not easy to understand. Filtering and passing information along to our other systems and internal teams was difficult. We found it much easier to make custom updates as well. Development was able to make updates and custom fields much quicker.
From our content creators to our dev team, Contentful has been an excellent solution for our website. The Contentful CMS is very user-friendly and customizable, and the modular format makes restructuring things easy.
For teams that don't have an in house dev team–or don't plan to continue working with a dev team post site development–Contentful could be a little challenging.
Contentful modular format helps us keep a large amount of information organized and up to date.
Contentful is very easy to use and easy to push any update from testing to staging and to production. By setting up multiple templates, it's very scalable for any company to use Contentful as the CMS.
The only possible issue is if you want to go off the template-based landing pages, there will need development on the backend to setup additional templates. Having too heavy pages will also impact the load time on contentful drstically.
Having a good and stable CMS for the corporate website.
I like that I can update and troubleshoot the website in real-time, with previews for my internal team so I can ensure I collect approvals and track what was changed.
While Contentful is the best option, I also wish there was a way that a website map was auto-populated so we could see the big picture in real-time.
Having a place to put our CMS and have the entire team access it and own parts of the website is great. It helps us communicated with each other, demonstrate messaging and technical advancements, and create growth for the company through our combined efforts.
