"Straight Forward CMS"

4.5/5

What do you like best about KeystoneJS?

I loved how simple the layout of the CMS was. There was not an overload of options like on Wordpress. Everything I needed was laid out very simply. Managing user accounts and contact form information was made very easy. Everything is straightforward and there are no hidden features or options like I've seen in other CMS'.

What do you dislike about KeystoneJS?

I love the simplicity but it comes with a cost. You have to be really aware of the content you need to manage. Keystone isn't for the person who wants to continuously edit the content on their site. It's for the person who knows exactly what will be altered and the precise data that needs to be manages. It's not as DIY as WordPress which can be a good thing. Depends on your business needs.

Recommendations to others considering KeystoneJS:

Work with your development team to identify what data you really need access to. Really consider the elements you're using in your current CMS. Having this open conversation with your dev team will help in having a finished product that truly serves your need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is KeystoneJS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We implemented it for one of my clients. They wanted a CMS that was simplified. Their site content wasn't constantly changing. Systems like WordPress or Silverstripe were too overcomplicated for their needs. We needed a CMS where we could focus on managing API keys and users. Our clients loved the simplicity and ease of the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
