"Simplicity at its best"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

Contentstack feels like a win for anyone who wants a straightforward, user-friendly CMS. The interface is very intuitive so pushing content to my sites was a breeze thanks to its headless setup. As a tool I rely on daily, the integration into regular workflows is always smooth. Contentstack handles repetitive tasks with consistency and speed.

One feature I really appreciate is the user group management. I could assign different access levels—like “Content Manager” or “Developer”—right from the dashboard, no fuss. The ability to create custom roles also means I can fine-tune who sees what, down to specific entries or fields, which keeps things organized and secure.

It’s been a time-saver for me and my team to manage our projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

The initial learning curve can be more demanding than anticipated. The basics are simple, but configuring content models requires more adjustments and demanding a learning curve.

The API rate limits are sometimes a headache to the team. During high-demand scenarios, hitting the rate cap poses the occasional technical hurdles that disrupts the workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to develop with and Use"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

As a product manager, I like the flexibility that Content stack provides us to develop and implement components with and the ease of use for business to update content on the platform.

It has also been easy to integrate with other downstream systems and provided flexibility not just for our website but for other platforms in our organisation.

Additionally, the customer support has been very good whenever we have had any questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

The learning curve for Content Stack sometimes can be quite high depending on how you build it. I also think that some documentation could be more in depth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My contentsack experience"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

What I like best about Contentstack is how easy it is to work with when building and managing dynamic content. Working in a home building industry I have I’ve used it to power things like interactive floor plan pages, home detail descriptions, and even automate syncing with platforms like Cloudinary. It’s flexible enough to support both developers and content editors, and I like how the structure makes it easy to plug into APIs and handle things like fallback logic, localization, and versioned environments without much hassle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

What I dislike about Contentstack is the lack of clear documentation for more advanced use cases and custom integrations. It sometimes takes trial and error to figure out how to get things working the right way, especially when syncing with external platforms like Cloudinary. I also wish there was better support for having a dedicated development branch or preview environment, since right now everything has to be managed manually across environments.

"User-Friendly UI but Slow Publishing and Notifications in Contentstack"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

It was easy to get a hang of Contentstack. Its UI is easy to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

When publishing an article or changing something within a published article, it takes multiple minutes for the article to uploaded or for the changes to come through. This is way too long in the journalistic business. Also, sending a push notification takes way too long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you find Contentstack’s UI easy to navigate and that it’s helping improve your article visibility in places like Google Discover. That’s great to hear.

We’re sorry to learn about the delays you’ve experienced when publishing or sending notifications.

"User friendly platform to manage content across Web or App!"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

A lot of customize features for different content types that fits into frontend platforms simply with API integration. This also avoid multiple deployments for the platform, but simply by updating on Contentstack and push to respective environment! Love the convenience! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

It's a bit low when bulk-publishing entries & assets, especially on videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Thank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback! We’re so glad to hear that Contentstack’s flexibility and API integration are making content management smooth and efficient for your team.

"Contentstack has reduced our content publishing time"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

It is easy to use. I am responsible for training end users sets on how to use Contentstack. On average my users catch on quickly, requiring only one 1-hr. session of training. Also, it’s expandable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

It’s probably the way we implemented Contentstack, but we have to have developers involved to add any of the apps that Contentstack provides such as Google Analytics and Taxonomy. We can make changes, but they will be overwritten the next time our model is re-published. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
