Both our team and clients are happy using DatoCMS. I especially like that our non-technical customers can easily make updates and that my team can focus on being a more strategic partner. I also like that my team is able to develop more quickly with fewer issues resulting in cost and time savings. Last but definitely not least, we've really enjoyed working with the DatoCMS team. They've been helpful and quite responsive.
DatoCMS isn't as widely recognized as some competitors, so it can take a bit more time upfront to educate potential clients about its benefits.
DatoCMS is helping us move faster and is giving our clients more flexibility. It's a much more modern solution.
The flexibility to build and update quickly, easy to use and very few errors.
Would be great to have bigger storage on lower tier plans.
Its a great replacement for wordpress and feels more powerful in its capabilities as a platform.
It is clear that the Dato team has put a lot of effort in understanding their users' needs. They value their customers and provide excellent support. From a developer standpoint, DatoCMS is simply amazing. There are just so many good features and the CMS is really easy to implement. The docs are great and thorough. The dozen of available starter projects help you get going real fast. The GraphQL Content Delivery API allows for full typesafety when using Typescript and codegen. Webhooks work great. And what I like the most, by building your own custom plugins, it is possible to extend the functionality of DatoCMS in any imaginable way. True flexibility.
I have actually not found anything to dislike about DatoCMS in comparison to other CMS platforms.
For clients, we have used DatoCMS to build a great content management solution for marketing sites, and are currently implementing DatoCMS for a more advanced use case: an education platform, having the entirety of the admin portal inside of Dato using custom plugins.
As a marketing manager, I've had an exceptional experience with DatoCMS. What I like best about DatoCMS is its user-friendly interface, flexibility, and robust management capabilities. It has greatly streamlined our content workflow and made it easy to manage our website content effectively.
I have found no major dislikes about DatoCMS; it has consistently met and exceeded our expectations.
DatoCMS is solving key challenges by streamlining our content management, and simplifying localization, This has resulted in improved efficiency, content consistency, and website performance, benefiting our workflow significantly.
It's easy to develop with DatoCMS our devs were able to put the first bits in the same day as we registered The interface is simple. DatoCMS provides great capabilities to Agencies and their customers - no need for an agency user in each customer account and collaborators solve issues with shared accounts which is a great addition to security Pricing is affordable
So far, everything is good. Of course, there are some small things here and there, but it's more a matter of my tastes
Decouple content from web-frontend this gives us flexibility with content management and allows us to offload content updates from developers
It's simple to set up and integrate into your team's workflow. Our favorite features include the modular content fields, automatically optimized images and the structure text fields. The whole platform is a breeze from both a content editing and engineering perspective. Their support team is also super responsive and solved all our issues in no time.
Finding reasons to dislike DatoCMS is challenging since it is an excellent platform. The only thing we couldn't integrate seamlessly was setting up build triggers for page spidering. We had to set up fake build pipelines because DatoCMS requires you to trigger a build before initiating page spidering. Our implementation doesn't require a full site rebuild, so that we could have just used a webhook.
We are using DatoCMS for all our content, from marketing pages to docs and our blog. It allows our designers to change content without requiring time from our engineers.
* really easy to use * great support team * flexible pricing * customizable sidebar
Sometiems the search function does not work as expected
We needed a SAAS Cms on a budget
Probably the best headless CMS out there. Helpful and responsive support. Generous free plan.
More plan options besides free and professional.
User-friendly headless CMS. Efficient website, edited easily.
I like the separation of a hosted CMS but sometimes they lack the features and customisation you need. I spent a lot of time trialing platforms before I chose DatoCMS. It had all the features I needed plus the overall experience has been consistently great. The team are also very helpful and have gone beyond what I would expect.
They've done a great job of covering all bases
Hosted headless CMS that does not compromise on features
DatoCMS has the features you need, not more of them not any less. I will be totally honest: in the first place, I appreciated its pricing as it has a very low starting point which was affordable for a startup. The preview feature with NextJS is game-changer, this integration is so powerful! I was very happy with its CDN: being able to share static assets with two clicks with such performance is vital for a startup like us. Adding internationalization to our homepage was super easy and quick. Integrating its Webhooks to existing Deployment Pipelines (Azure Pipelines in our case) was easy and fast.
I won't compare here Headless CMS versus Traditional full-blown CMS as they are different paradigms with pros and cons that apply to all the products, not Dato specifically. I wasn't able to create a unique immutable URL for a PDF I uploaded in the DatoCMS Content CDN: I need to have a PDF with a URL that never changes even if I update the content, but I had to write some custom code.
We have to - have beautiful landing pages powered by our design system where Marketing should be able to update or create theme without Development effort - handle internationalized copywriting for both sites and apps - easily deploy static asset sharing URLs in different part of our company
