Product & Community Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 1/23/2026 "DatoCMS: Flexible, Fast API, and a Reliable Fit for Modern Developer-Driven Projects" 4.5/5 What do you like best about DatoCMS? DatoCMS is very flexible and works great for developer-driven projects. Content modeling is powerful, the API is fast, and it fits really well with modern front-end frameworks. Once it’s set up, managing structured content is straightforward, and both developers and non-technical editors can work comfortably. Overall, it’s a solid and reliable CMS for production use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DatoCMS? At first, pricing was a concern as our needs grew. However, the team was very helpful and took the time to understand our use case, eventually recommending a plan that fit our needs perfectly. The support and guidance made a big difference and turned what could have been a blocker into a good experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DatoCMS solving and how is that benefiting you? DatoCMS helps us keep our content organized and flexible as the project grows. It removes a lot of friction between content and development, so changes don’t require constant rework. Having a clear structure and a reliable API makes updates faster, reduces errors, and lets the team focus more on building the product instead of fighting the CMS.

Full Stack Developer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 4/1/2025 "The Perfect Blend of Flexibility and Simplicity" 5/5 What do you like best about DatoCMS? I love how intuitive and flexible DatoCMS is. The UI is clean and easy to use, but it still offers powerful features like GraphQL, webhooks, and smooth integrations with modern frameworks. It was super easy to implement into our workflow, and we now use it daily without any friction. On top of that, the customer service is outstanding—quick, helpful, and genuinely friendly. That kind of support makes a huge difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DatoCMS? Honestly, there’s nothing I actively dislike. Everything has worked smoothly so far, and any questions I had were quickly resolved by their support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DatoCMS solving and how is that benefiting you? We started our apps right away with DatoCMS, so it’s been the perfect fit from day one. We didn’t have to deal with migrating from another system or building something custom—it just worked. It gave us a clean, structured way to manage content from the start, and made collaboration between developers and content editors smooth and efficient. It saved us a ton of time and set a solid foundation for our projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Director of Corporate Communications Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 3/8/2025 "A solid CMS for companies scaling their websites" 5/5 What do you like best about DatoCMS? Having been using DatoCMS in professional setting for five years, I'd recommend DatoCMS as a great choice because it’s flexible, fast, and easy to use. The interface is simple and intuitive, even for people who aren’t tech-savvy or coders. And the content modelling lets you create reusable components that make managing content and building new pages straight-forward. The built-in image handling is smooth and useful. For non-technical users, the role-based permissions make it easy to edit content. DatoCMS customer support has always been responsive and quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DatoCMS? One disadvantage of DatoCMS is the absence of notifications for inactive projects that are still being billed, which can result in unanticipated charges. Furthermore, the live preview functionality could be enhanced to provide more seamless real-time updates and a smoother experience for content editors working on dynamic websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DatoCMS solving and how is that benefiting you? DatoCMS has streamlined our content management and website scalability over the past five years. It offers a centralised, structured system that support developers and content creators for collaboration and website development. The API-first approach integrates easily into our tech stack, enhancing performance and flexibility. The user-friendly interface lets our team update content independently, saving time and resources. Built-in image optimisation and CDN support improve site speed and SEO. By addressing content workflow inefficiencies, DatoCMS allows us to focus on delivering exceptional digital experiences while maintaining a scalable infrastructure.

Vice-chair Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 5/22/2025 "Clean, very flexible and easy to use" 5/5 What do you like best about DatoCMS? It is very powerful and flexible - with high levels of customisation. We were able to set up a complex website with thousands of pages that has proven robust and reliable. Helpful support when needed - and I suspect it has far more functionality we haven't tapped. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DatoCMS? It would be helpful if there was a simple preview function and spell checker in the text editor. The limited formatting is a good thing - but would be useful to be able to see quickly what the page will look like without having to build the whole site again. Even more irritating is the lack of spellchecker - its really easy to let typos slip through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Senior Frontend Developer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/13/2024 "The most expendable changeable and awesome CMS I've ever used." 4.5/5 What do you like best about DatoCMS? I love GraphQL and DatoCMS supports that out of the box, like a charm! The flexibility of Dato is just heavenly, it really is a dream come true! You change the scheme, and it's so flexible out of the box with lots of filter options also great for multilingual purposes. And it's just so easy to use! The easy of integration is simple, just GraphQL like you expected. With the great implementations Dato offers, you can get the options the most ideal way you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DatoCMS? There aren't migrations possible, and that's something I genuinly miss at the moment.

Frontend Web Developer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 2/26/2024 "By far the best cloud-based CMS out there!" 5/5 What do you like best about DatoCMS? I am an ex-WordPress developer that embraced the modern Jamstack (Next.js), and I can say that this is by far the most comprehensive and suited CMS to work with for entry to enterprise-level websites. DatoCMS offers an amazing developer experience for modeling your content and blocks, intuitive and friendly UI to create your collections, an outstanding TYPE-SAFETY content delivery API including a slick GUI playground to test your queries, probably the fastest and service-driven support team, and so much more! These guys have crafted a masterpiece in terms of CMS, which makes working with Next.js fun and, most importantly, almost hassle-free. Their work can be seen in every feature they release, either in their UI or the open-source libraries they provide to work with their APIs. Cheers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DatoCMS? The plugin community is still evolving and still needs some work - in my opinion, the gap is minor and still, I didn't find any challenge that I couldn't overcome by myself (using code). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DatoCMS solving and how is that benefiting you? As a Next.js developer, I'm using DatoCMS for every project where I need a CMS. When you think of a CMS, the first impression is the work & maintenance you have to do to deploy it on a server and hope that it won't crash from time to time. With DatoCMS, I have peace of mind that my websites are getting their content on every deployment, no matter what! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
