"Clean and flexible for the intermediate user or novice web developer."
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Agility is very flexible and can be tailored to do pretty much anything. As a web designer, I enjoy the flexibility this provides to me as sometimes I am given projects that take a bit of creative problem-solving.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

Unless you are familiar with traditional cms software such as Wordpress or Drupal, the interface can be a bit challenging to get used to.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has greatly improved our communication with the public since we are now using categorized news posts. Our web presence has also increased and we have a higher ranking on search engines.

"Solid Custom Platform With Limitations"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Supports our highly custom platform very well. Our developers are well versed in it and making updates to our site/building on the platform is relatively seemless.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

While friendly for developers and advanced users, it is not the most user-friendly platform for marketers and publishers. Limited flexibility for creating new landing pages and with landing page design. We have resorted to using a third party platform to better support landing page creation.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The platform is flexible and easy for our developers to update and support. It supports our highly custom website well, hosting our sticker editor product relatively seamlessly. It is useful/helpful for SEO optimization, though we have developed custom fields to support our specific needs.

"helpful support"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

The technical help has been very good and fast, and the instructions are clear. Overall well organized, and the interface is easy to understand.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

Preview issue needs to be fixed, cannot be previewed at every level. The table function is not responsive at all; it would be helpful if we could have a more responsive and stylized table function.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps to manage all sorts of videos and numerous articles of our organization. we can update, edit and move things around easily.

"be more intuitive"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

What I liked best about agility is that it has everything it needs to be able to efficiently manage various web pages. offers us various services to be able to learn from it and explore new features that I did not know before, for example the webinars that it organizes, the documentation etc. In addition, a point in favor of the platform is the integration with third-party programs that allow us to improve the experience and manage the web efficiently once you understand the principles of agility.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

What I liked the least about agility, was that the user experience was not intuitive. Something confusing when I first started and was not friendly. At the time of working it was difficult for me to find the options and tools that the program offers; consequently, it hinders my workflow, which causes it to be slower and waste valuable time. In short, if it had a user-friendly interface for its users, it would optimize the learning curve process in order to work more efficiently. however when I learned to use these problems they were solved

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

the team used agility to manage various webs, and one of the biggest benefits I have noticed is that the implementation processes have been improved and optimized, since we use the platform the project organization has improved.

"Seamless experience"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

I like the flexibility of the agility CMS.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

Only thing I dislike about the CMS is that it can be overwhelming for a new user. I feel there is a steep learning curve but once users get past it, they will apprciate the wide variety of features.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Agility for our website and to host our content.

"Great tool & even better support"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

The support and knowledge of the team helped us decide that Agility CMS was the tool for us. At multiple times before we committed, Joel and James were there to help us with any questions we had.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

Compared to other CMS's available, some of the configurations required for complex modules can become hard to follow, especially when new to the Agility way of thinking. However, support is always on hand to explain why Agility thinks their way is the right way. Given time, you also begin to understand these decisions enhance the experience of both the editor and the developer.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think the biggest problem that will be solved by moving to Agility CMS will be seperating our content from our other functionality. Having a bespoke application dedicated to just content will make us rethink how we push content out to our customers in an engaging way.

"Great CMS!"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

My marketing team loves that we can schedule posts in advance and all the collaboration features.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

We were using a all-in-one solution before and it made it impossible for the marketing team to make edits.

"Great CMS with easy set up for both developers and users"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Unlike other headless CMS, Agility CMS actually has some easy tools that save time for developers. As a developer. I appreciate that I dont need to write code for sitemap and URL management from scratch. Usually, Headless CMSs dont offer that or offer that for extra fees! Their Page builder is also included in all plans which save me hours and hours. Developing a page builder from scratch for each client is a big time-wasting process and their page builder is very solid. I did not encounter any problems with content modeling and it is very intuitive even for first-time users and users without any technical background. I also like their community and support team on their slack, everyone is super friendly and knowledgeable!

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

I wish their UI was a bit more light, it looks very enterprise-focused, which is fine by me, I can see their launching new UI improvements every other week and it is great to see. It feels like they keep evolving and improving things, they are not some old stagnated cms.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am building jamstack websites with next.js and Agility's integration with Vercel is very handy. I have been building static sites for a while now and it is nice to save time during deployment - it only takes a few clicks to get your website live and set up the preview for the next.js website and host it on Vercel. Which is also a very economical and lightweight solution. This is my favorite stack right now.

"One of the easiest CMS's to integrate into a project"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

One of my personal favourite features of Agility has got to be the version/page history feature.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

Occasional technical issues but they've gotten better over time.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The ability to use whatever technologies I want and then couple it with Agility as it is headless is a game-changer.

"Great functionality!"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

I like how the page management feature works. It is a truly valuable function that gives a lot of flexibility in work.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

The UI design could be a bit more fresh and modern, but it is quite a subjective preference.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Content management vis CMS is easy and intuitive. The benefit is a page management feature, that was mentioned above.

"A Great and Easy to Use Content Management Solution for the Enterprise"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

The fact its web based, and easy to train non-technical users on. If you can use a website and understand some basic workflows you can be an expert on the CMS.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

There are few downsides i've run into, sometimes publishing requires a cache cleanup, but this has been a rare event and i believe it has more to do with our customizations than the core product itself. There are a never ending amount of customizations

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using it to promote website content and some specific customer facing workflows.

"The best in class for large scale Jamstack."
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Agility makes developers' life SO MUCH easier. The support is excellent, and it just makes sense as a Headless CMS. Compared to other CMSs, Agility CMS streamlines many things that we would typically have to do manually, over and over again.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

For me, there's nothing to dislike. The UI is a bit outdated, but don't let that fool you. It's the most powerful CMS for Jamstack right now.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Agility CMS allows us to work faster, more organized, and it just makes sense. With other CMSs, we constantly have to do tedious manual labor for sitemap management, component queries, and much more. With Agility, all this comes out of the box.
