"Very User-Friendly and Easy to Adopt Without Disrupting Work"
5/5
What do you like best about Contentstack?

It is very user friendly. Easy to figure out without disrupting any previous work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Very small, but having to go back between page editing and asset pulling. For example I have to create a page, then save it, then go to assets, copy URL, then go back to page to insert URL. Again, nit picking, but there should be a way to pull asset from the page I am editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive UI and Solid Integrations, Yet Nested Structure Hinders Small Edits"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The UI is intuitive once you get the hang of the tool. It works well for small- to medium-length articles, and integration with internal tools and links works well too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

The article structure can be confusing at times; when we need to make small changes, its nested layout makes it difficult to locate specific content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Hi there,

We're glad to hear that you found Contentstack's UI intuitive, appreciated the integrations, and that the platform helps keep knowledge article editing accessible across your team.

We also appreciate your feedback about navigating nested content structures.

"It is very versatile when implementing new landing pages on the website."
4/5
What do you like best about Contentstack?

It is a very accessible platform when it comes to adding assets, entries, and components. Additionally, it offers a variety of tools that help improve the portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Adding images to the components is quite complicated and laborious. Furthermore, the system does not always save the state you were in. For example, if you select an image that is in a folder located in the fifth position, after doing so you have to go through the entire path from the beginning again to select a new asset, as it does not remember the previous location.

"Intuitive Headless CMS with Powerful Collaboration and Scalability"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The headless CMS and its ability to publish content instantly have been a real lifesaver for us. The UI and UX are both very intuitive and thoughtfully designed, making it easy for end users to navigate.

I especially appreciate how it organizes different elements such as pages, components, content, and popups into clear categories. Unlike other CMS platforms we've used, it doesn't lag, and our content team can publish with minimal technical expertise or programming knowledge. This flexibility also gives developers the freedom to create components for us as needed.

Its impressive how we can easily go to previous versions and since we are hospitality company, it is important for us to be always update the website with the updated content. This is where we use scheduling option which was not there in our old CMS.

It's impressive that the platform allows developers to work independently while still collaborating effectively with the content team. Developers can focus on building the front-end experience, while the content team can publish content at the same time.

Another advantage is that content serves as a central piece, which we can reuse across multiple components without duplication.

The availability of UAT, STG, and Prod environments is invaluable, allowing us to use the system for different purposes seamlessly.

Being cloud-native, the platform is capable of handling large-scale deployments and managing high traffic efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

At times, I find the pricing to be higher compared to other options available in the market.

Additionally, the platform seems to provide only a limited set of out-of-the-box features, particularly when it comes to advanced personalization and analytics reporting. To utilize these capabilities, third-party integrations are required, which might not be feasible for smaller companies.

For larger organizations, the process of submitting content for approval within Contentstack can be cumbersome, since the only method is to send a UAT or staging link for approval. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Dynamic Content Made Easy, But Learning Curve for Updates"
3/5
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I appreciate Contentstack for its ability to facilitate the creation of dynamic content, which is crucial for managing and publishing deals efficiently. I also find the padflow design aspect of Contentstack particularly beneficial as it helps organize collections very well, streamlining my workflow and making the content management process more structured and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

The search feature is a little wonky, which can make finding content more difficult than it should be. Additionally, the frequent updates require me to relearn things or adjust to new interfaces, which can be a bit disruptive to my workflow. The initial setup of Contentstack was also quite tricky, as we had to find ways to mirror the CMS for our specific needs, which took considerable effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Thank you for sharing your experience with Contentstack! We're thrilled to hear that you appreciate the ease of creating dynamic content and the padflow design for organizing collections.

A powerful content management platform with a live preview editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I like that Contentstack is easy to navigate and I'm impressed that it's constantly improving. I really value its flexibility and how easy it is to use.

"Effortless Website Updates and Impressive Speed Boost"
4/5
What do you like best about Contentstack?

It has increased our site speed, it makes updating our website quick and easy in many ways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I think the future scheduling system could be reworked to make it easier to manage future updates and the preview functionality needs to be 1:1 to what the site will look like and there are a few features (side bars) on the Timeline page that prevent you from being able to do a true preview (it's close, but to truly preview a future update, you need to be able to see it 1:1) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Friendly CMS interface"
4/5
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I like the options for content model setup as well as the ability to specifically target different environments for publishing. The interface is fairly clean and easy to interact with as well. The api options have also integrated fairly easily with our apis for updates and content retrieval. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I think the localization can lead to some accidental issues if you are handling multiple locales. Other tools I have used allow fields that match to still be in sync even if the locale has been split so that updates after initial creation and splitting don't require duplicate effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

We're thrilled to hear that you appreciate the user-friendly interface, content model setup options, and seamless integration with APIs.

Contentstack helps our team streamline website management across our department. Its headless CMS is flexible which allows us to build fast, while the marketing team manages content independently. You also don't have to be extremely technical to work daily in the platform which is a huge benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

If we want to build out additional modules, it does require dev work to complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We understand the need for additional dev work for building out modules and are continuously working to improve our platform to address such concerns.
