"User friendly for a newbie"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I am somewhat new to the world of contentstack and not someone who works in a traditional IT type role but I have found it to be mostly user friendly and intuitive enough to be able to navigate around and complete tasks with little trouble. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

For dislikes, I have found that the lag time in publishing content can vary and have run into a few bumps in the road with editing rich text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very useful, but is lacking some components"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I like the fact that you can edit quite fast, and share between multiple different languages. It's very easy to implement small changes such as visuals, texts and components. I use it everday. It's also nice that whenever there is a mistake, you can see it directly on the preview website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Self-import service is really awful, it always makes the website crash for us. The integration here could be improved massively. This is something we have flagged to the customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Varia Makagonova of Contentstack

Hi there! Thank you so much for your review. We're thrilled to hear that Contentstack is helping you improve the consumer journey. I shared your experience with what you call the "self-import service" with our product team and they said that typically migrations are only one-time things and they're not sure why you site could be crashing every time it runs - it sounds like something custom your team may have written on your end that's not working correctly. We would love to help you figure it out, because it absolutely shouldn't be your experience! Though you mention you've flagged it to customer support, I would encourage you to get in touch with your Customer Success Manager as well. We're here to help! Thank you again for taking the time to share your feedback!

"Secure and scalable headless CMS"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The Contentstack platform is ISO27001 certified and can provide SOC2 reports to customers. This was a requirement for our organisation to ensure we sufficiently secure sensitve and/or PII data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

The licensing model for content types can be restrictive if the content structure is not organised appropriately. This required some redevelopment of our content and ways of working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Overall a solid tool with room for improvement"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The UI is intuitive and is very easy to understand the work flow, this makes it extremely easy to create content efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

For the most difficult implementations, sometimes I feel like there's unnecessary complexity. For some components such as Restriction Rules for example, you should be able to just implement one restriction and have the rest adapting. Instead, you have to implement one restriction as well as the "opposite ones". It should also have features such as highlighting unfilled fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing platform for integrating all content into multiple platforms using APIs"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The speed that ensures that we have multiple parallel API requests without any latency or delays in delivering the content when sending big campaigns through external platforms. The integration process is quite neat and easy if you have a tech team to support you.

Content teams have an easy way of usage in the platform being able to provide translations and copies fast and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

It is a difficult UI for people that are not 100% tech savvy , but given the market CMS platforms, it is on the good side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use but limited customizability compared to other website building tools."
What do you like best about Contentstack?

Easy to use, simplified, and few errors in uplaoding process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Live preview, which we are told by ContentStack team is available and should be accessible so long as we ask our administrator, we did that and it has been with IT for months, it is not available or accessible to us although it is a released feature that should be accessible. Not bad platform, but seems limited compared to many other website build tools that are more modern and customizable. Such as limited on image sizing on webapge, and cant put a full length image but only place an image and text split. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I like using Contentstack!"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I like being able to define the different content models and fill the entries.

The versioning feature also looks interesting to me. Supporting differnet locale out of the box helps us to support localization.

We are using the GraphQL endpoint and we love it. Integrating the endpoint was so easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

We are trying to use the Webhook feature but the documentation isn't that much rich. For example this doucment (https://www.contentstack.com/docs/developers/set-up-webhooks/webhook-events) doesn't really explains what is the body of events and what we should expect from each events. We have to test every event by ourselve and create a documentation on our own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Varia Makagonova of Contentstack

Hi there! I'm so happy to hear you like using Contentstack. I passed on your feedback to our documentation team, and we have started working on improved Webhook documentation based on your guidance. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience!
