AW Alun W. Developer Internet Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/15/2022 "Feature-full seemless static hosting" 4.5/5 What do you like best about CloudCannon? There are frequent software updates and feature releases. There's a user-friendly interface and highly customisable editing pages for clients. Enjoying the increased support for multiple static site generators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? Most initial drawbacks have improved over time - occasional slow build time has sped up and error messaging has really improved. Customisation can still be a little tricky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? We use Cloudcannon to host secure static websites for clients who require independent editing access but not the overheads and security drawbacks of full blown CMSes. A consistent platform for multiple clients saves us time and costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Marketing Consultant Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/9/2022 "Dependable, fast-moving, great customer service." 4/5 What do you like best about CloudCannon? I love CloudCannon because of how easy it is to customize their CMS. New features are constantly being added, and even though things break every now and then, the helpfulness of their customer support means you never have to worry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? The support documentation isn't always up to date, and the recent price increase was substantial. In my opinion, client access to the CMS could be more flexible: I'd love to be able to grant access to, say, DNS settings for some clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? A cost-effective, scalable way to host client websites built on Jekyll & JAMstack technology.

I like that someone else has set up the account for me. The layout looks clean but... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? I have no idea to customize further. The help articles aren't friendly for someone who's clueless about developing. It's very easy to be disorganized with files on here, which can definitely be attributed to user error, but I have no help from CloudCannon. I do not feel support from CloudCannon's resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? CloudCannon hosts my team's website, and we need a website. I do wish it was easier for non developers to use. We have to contract out to ask questions like why the build is failing and how we can fix it. It would be great to have automation to help a user like me know what I may need to fix and HOW to fix it. If you take a look at our current account, a build has been failing for 3 weeks, and we still haven't figured out why. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Director Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/4/2022 "Reliable hosting for headless CMS" 5/5 What do you like best about CloudCannon? I host over 100 websites on CloueCannon, they have never disappointed. These are what I like - Customer support - Product Relibility - Easy of use - Regular update - Seperating workspace per client and teams I have to say over the years CloudCannon has started supporting various headless CMS this has been great for me to explore and use just one platform to do the Build, management and deployment. Headless CMS either have no content editors or very complicated content editors. CloudCannon sits in the sweet spot, it's easy for our clients to up date content and easy for edirtos to make certain sections CMS editable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? As headless platform it works great. I am keen to explore their API based deployment, that's one things that's missing right now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? CloudCannon is one platform through which I can host all my headless CMS projects, regardless of the size. It's easy for developers to work with and it integrates well with GIT. It's also simple editable tools for the clients, this removes us as being a bottle neck. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Principal Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/19/2022 "CloudCannon is great. Can't recommend it enough." 5/5 What do you like best about CloudCannon? CloudCannon gives quite a bit more control to stakeholders than a headless CMS would, but doesn't require that they learn HTML/CSS. It also lets devs write code using the tools they know best. It's great when you've got custom requirements, a team of reasonably capable stakeholders, and a good dev. Unless I were using a stock template and on a project with no special or custom requirements, I'd pick CloudCannon over any of the site builders or headless CMSs any day. The dev and support team are also super capable. Any time I ran into issues, they worked with me to resolve them quickly. I believe I was the first person to use AlpineJS with CloudCannon, so we got to investigate and solve some novel bugs together with that. I'm a huge fan of CloudCannon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? Site building on file-save can be a little bit slow, especially when you're making a bunch of little changes. I think they're still coming into their own in terms of documentation and in terms of finding the balance between convention and configuration. I don't see any of these as meaningful impediments. The dev team has a really ambitious road map in front of them, and they do a great job of listening to and acting on feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? CloudCannon provides a clickable WYSIWYG interface for editing static sites (e.g. those built with Hugo, Jekyll or Eleventy). It slots neatly between Wordpress/Squarespace (and other block-based site-builders) and tools like Ghost (or other headless CMSs), and lets stakeholders immediately see the effect of their changes, and lets devs go at full speed. There's also the Bookshop component framework, which enables some really dynamic page-building. I've found this is the sweet spot - my stakeholders can make changes to content (and sometimes layout) without needing to know coding, without needing to involve me, and without fear of breaking things. I can empower my stakeholders and focus on doing my best work. We have far, far less back-and-forth, I'm no longer a bottleneck, and things just work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Chief Operations Office Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 9/26/2022 "Great platform for running Jekyll Websites in an Agency Environment" 5/5 What do you like best about CloudCannon? UI is clean. The content team finds it easy to use. Its automatic integration with source control makes it a pleasure to work with for our developers. When we have projects where page speed is a major point of emphasis, CloudCannon makes it easy for us to use static sites AND collaborate with non-technical team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? I've occasionally run into odd issues with DNS configuration, but the support team has always been helpful when I run into a snag. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? It allows us to deploy Jekyll sites with the benefit of 'CMS' style functionality for our non-technical team members. Blazing fast sites with the benefits of a CMS equals happy clients and productive team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/17/2022 "The best CMS for SSGs" 5/5 What do you like best about CloudCannon? It is a low config one-stop-shop. It works with multiple SSG's and has everything included you could wish for, like hosting on a CDN, form handling, statistics and more. They recently added support/developed a smart search solution. These guys know SSG's in and out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? Nothing really... Amazing software! And they keep improving it! They recently added new SSG's and added DAM integration. Even their support is really good. The only negative point I can think of is that there are sometimes (small) bugs in the CMS editor because of their continuing development (which causes a bug every now and then). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? It is a user friendly CMS for a SSG. With CloudCannon your clients/marketing department can update the content of an SSG website without programming knowledge. This is essential for agencies and programmers.

CK Candy K. Co-founder Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/1/2022 "CloudCannon has made us very successful (financially)" 5/5 What do you like best about CloudCannon? It's really great being able to host unlimited websites. As an entrepreneur and web developer this is incredibly valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CloudCannon? There is sooooo much we can do with CloudCannon, however learning about all the possibilities means reading through pages and pages of documents. This is extremely draining for people with reading disabilities. CloudCannon would go from 9/10 to 20/10 if there was an online course we could purchase that showed us step-by-step how to implement Bookshop, Jekyll, editable ecom templates, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CloudCannon solving and how is that benefiting you? They are always improving something... and I'm sure they will roll out with an online CloudCannon course in the future too.
