I love the ability to create components to make my clients lives easier. It's very easy to use for both users and myself for development and if given the choice, I wouldn't pick anytihng else.
I think it'd be very handy to have the slicemachine for Remix, but that's just me!
I think headless CMS' are a unique space based on what you plug them into, but being able to find good docs with legacy support is very helpful for development.
The best part about Prismic is how simple it is to understand and build sites with. The local development tool slice machine is a big help with creating website sections that can be re used throughout the website. Using slices as my main sections I have been able to rapidly increase my productivity when building websites.
My biggest gripe with Prismic is the poorly organized media library, without a way to search for your images from with in the page builder or select multiple imagess at once it greatly hurts the ability to use Prisimic for large portfolio sites that have a lot of media.
Headless CMS and rapid custom website development
- It's realy easy to create a solid cms for any kind of website. I've been able to integrate it with existing projects as well as new ones. - Very handy multi language integration. - It's always in development, and has a great community with lots of people that can help you out (good customer support).
- I would love more control over image storage --> renaming, creating folders etc. - I would love custom sorting of documents by dragging instead of publish date. So no dislike perse, just some improvements that would be a great addition :)
Using prismic.io saves me a lot of time and money since i dont have to buy and setup a server myself. This is especially handy for smaller projects/clients that have no problem running their project on prismic.
Por la facilidad que tiene para su integraciรณn con diferentetes tecnologรญas web.
Lo que no me gusta es su soporte para graphql. Ha sido un poco complicado su implementaciรณn, y eso definitivamente deberรญa mejorar.
La implementaciรณn de un headless cms para nuestra web y nuestro blog.
Prismic.io is an extremely easy-to-handle yet highly versatile platform. In my experience, as someone who developed their own blog, writing every line of code, having a CMS integrated with the NEXT.JS language allowed me to seamlessly integrate it into my environment.
The lack of an Android app, which could simplify the editing of my articles, is the most anticipated feature for me.
Enabling the publication of articles from my blog.
As a web developer, I've had the opportunity to explore various content management systems, and Prismic stands out as a noteworthy option. Prismic is a headless CMS, which means it offers a great deal of flexibility for developers while maintaining a user-friendly interface for content editors. Prismic includes a built-in preview feature that allows content creators to see how their work will look on the live site, which is invaluable for content accuracy and design alignment. The scheduling feature is equally impressive, offering the ability to plan content releases precisely.
While Prismic offers a good degree of flexibility, there may be limitations in customizing the backend or user interface compared to a fully self-hosted and open-source CMS. This can be a constraint for projects requiring highly specific backend features.
Different structured data
We use prismic for to add content to our category pages, they have a graphql API which is very easy to implement, expecially if you are developing a headless website. It is also relatively easy to create new content types. Prismic handles caching of the api and image compression. The best products are the ones that you can use, hand out to developers, hand out to content writers and never get anyone ever complaining about it, prismic is one of these products.
Searching for past articles could be better in the back-end interface
CMS blocks on a headless website
We've been using Prismic for a few years now, and it has truly transformed the way we handle content creation and management. We have looked at a few other products but stuck with Prismic. Prismic has exceeded our expectations. Its powerful features, combined with an intuitive interface and stellar performance, have made it an indispensable part of our content creation and management strategy. We wholeheartedly recommend Prismic to any team looking for a robust and flexible headless CMS solution.
The UI use to be a bit buggy when you enabled paragraphs in a rich text field but they have improved it.
Solvest the problem of not requiring an engineer to code updates and push out updates just for updating text/images.
The slices provide a ton of capabilities. The platform has proven to stand up to our most complex and trafficked needs. Their image rendition capabilities are second to none. Our clients have been pleased with the simplicity of the authoring interface.
Previews have been challenging to implement consistently. Media search works well but content managers want organization features.
They have reported that media organization features are coming.
I'm a lighter user than other members of my team, but the navigation is pretty straightforward. The slice integration is good, and the preview feature is useful.
When looking at locales, they aren't in alphabetical order, but in order of when they were added. This makes it hard to find locales when you are managing a lot and takes additional time. There should be linking between locales so when I'm updating one page it updates all other pages linked. Would make management SUBSTANTIALLY better and save SO MUCH TIME.
It is the product we use to build out our site pages.
The UI is fairly clear and convienent, as well as being very easy to master. The tags feature works well and makes navigation easy. I use Prismic every day in my work, and using it alongside Solidus (the back end for our site) is cohesive. I've never had to reach out to customer support, which is a testament to the software. The ability to go deeper behind the surface is also fantastic, and often used by the developers in our team.
The search bar function is sometimes tempramental and doesn't work as intended, but using tags circumvents this.
Allows us to house, navigate and organise hundreds (if not thousands) of documents that make up our site. This makes me job significantly easier, as I can directly travel to necessary documents (ie. changing a product page on site) within seconds and making changes is quick and efficient. I don't think I could do my job without this ability to navigate our content.
The flexibility of the product is great, I've integrated in most of all my projects that range from NextJS projects and to Mobile applications.
It could be much getting started with a new project, but once you have things setup, it's pretty much smooth sailing from there.
Seamless way to integrate into an existing codebase that offers great flexibility with content writers to add content while also developing in the codebase.
Very easy to use, simple navigation, Easy Implementation,Frequency of Use
No feedback on this, All good so far, not had any issue
We use it for our website updates and its easy to use
Prismic is very similar to the Advanced Custom Fields + Custom Post Type UI setup in Wordpress. It takes the best parts of those plugins and brings them to the modern era of web dev. The slice machine setup they have working now is a dream to work with. Prismic is extremely simple to use, implement, and is very powerful. I can essentially create my own page builder with components i've designed, allowing my clients to create any number of pages without my intervention. They offer a very generous free plan, and their customer support is extremely helpful. A number of my questions have been answered on their community forums.
The one thing that can be improved is their documentation. There needs to be more fleshed out examples, and more individual sections dedicated to certain portions of the developer experience. Sometimes I'll be looking for something, and the solution will be on this massively long page meant to cover 10 different topics.
Prismic lets me use modern tools and APIs to build my own page builder. I no longer have to work with Wordpress + Advanced Custom Fields to acheive that. Prismic is constantly receiving updates and listening to user feedback to try and make their product better for both developers and everyday users of the page builder.
Unlike other CMSs using JAMstack tech, Prismic isn't really headless as they've developed a lot of code that goes in the head. This gives the best of both worlds. Everything is architected like a headless cms, but a lot of the heavy lifting on the head is also done for you.
No import API. While there is an integration field which serves a lot of purposes, being able to programmatically update a lot of content in bulk would be advantageous. Common website related features would also be a bonus if they were included. e.g. redirect management and forms.
Faster build times compared to monolith CMSs by removing the need to install the whole CMS locally.
I've been using Prismic for more than 2 months now and I love the experience. The Editor is so fast and responsive. Creating content slices is a great feature as it helps us write different forms of article
Could add more data types like Tables etc. in the future
Prismic makes it easy to plug in a CMS with your frontend for content marketing
Prismic is really easy to use and integrate with any framework. I've integrated it with Svelte, GatsbyJS, Laravel, and NextJS and it has always been a pleasant experience. It also has a good number of features for managing content.
The only thing that I don't really like is that there's no way to self host Prismic. While this is definitely not a deal breaker, it would be a nice option but it's understandable why they wouldn't want to go that route.
I use Prismic when I want t a nice and easy to use CMS that requires little configuration.
We've used Prismic since 2022 on 3 projects that went into production. We've mainly used it for public facing websites because we needed a tool that would allow marketing and copywriting people to edit content easily yet have the flexbility of having fully custom components and look and feel to the websites. Prismic is simple yet very flexible when it comes to content editing. There is a slight learning curve but once you understand it, Prismic brings many benefits to the table! - Automatic Typescript types for each section - Flexibility in defining custom sections the way you want it - Multi language support - Fast & reliable API - Accessible pricing - Real time previews for draft documents - Love the new live preview for slices
Considering all the benefits it brings and the pricing, you cannot complain really about anything. I would suggest more like small improvements other than things to dislike. - Would be really nice to have more text formatting options in the editor. At the moment you can't do strikethrough, change text color or align text like it's possible in other editors. - Would be cool to be able to resize images before uploading - The prismic dashboard sometimes feel a bit slow. The API is super fast, but loading documents sometimes feels a bit slow and clunky.
The main problems it solves for us: Create websites and products with amazing UX and UI yet have the flexibility to edit all the content. We are benefiting from the fact that non technical people can edit content quite easily as well as share draft content internally
I use a free version I love the slice machine I love the new slice preview when creating content I love how easy it is to use Prismic with NextJS I love the prebuilt prismic components for NextJS like PrismicNextImage, PrismicNextLink e.t.c.
Nothing really, I think as the slice machine gets better more feature would be added E.g. easily deleting slice directly from the slice machine.
Easily publishing content for my websites
It's easy to learn Slicemachine is love. It's so much easy to develop using the slicemachine Works like a charm with Next.js
To copy content from one prismic repo to another we need a paid plan. A little disappointed with that.
It is solving the problem of bugging the website developer for small changes in the content of the website. The developer just makes the template and the content editors can easily make multiple pages of the website. It simply awesome
