"ContentStack is a user-friendly platform that improves my daily workflow"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The possibility to schedule changes allows the workflow to be smoother. As a user-friendly platform, I can quickly create content that can be used in a lot of pages. I can easily find any doubt in the contenstack articles or through the customer support. It's very easy to integrate and implement new features comparing with our previous tool, for example payment methods, review system, external partners. I use it very frequently everyday and am glad to have a platform that doesn't break all the time or slow-CS has been a great improvement in my daily work.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Contentstack doesn't allow you to select unlimited entries to add to a release, it doesn't have several type of accesses (just content editor and admin). At the moment we cannot use images from other scopes, which increases the amount of images in our assets. The search bar of ContentStack is also a bit weird-we cannot save our searches and when solving errors it's hard sometimes to know which is the issue in CS (doesn't tell you exactly which part is wrong)

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

ContentStack is reducing the time I spend on executional tasks and allows me to be more efficient in my decisions, since I don't have to worry about feasibility of implementing a new feature/tool. Also, we can improve conversion of our website through the possibility to speed up integrations with external tools-payment methods,review systems.

It is user-friendly, the order in which you work is logical and simple. uploading images is easy, and even takes care of inclusivity, with giving images a correct title for screenreader users.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

it creates big white spaces between the different features are not very esthetically pleasing.

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

Our previous program was always very slow, so contentstack is saving me a lot of time! Also, the modern products that are made with contentstack are pleasing my suppliers and brands, which evolves into an even better business relation.

"Future-proof solution, Vision enabling team"

The teams is caring about feedback and truly dedicated to customer success, putting words into action.

"Ideal solution that will allow us to grow and grow with us"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

When we started the procurement process for our new CMS/DXP solution there was several key goals we had, one of which was to empower our business users to create new pages and content without the involvement of our tech teams and limited involvement from our ecomm ops team. Several weeks ago we noticed that one of our regions had published a brand new landing page with new elements and layout without any support from tech/ecomm ops! As part of the consumer advisory board, we are really excited to see what upcoming features will be available for our tech team and content creators to use! The visual editor will allow us to move forward quickly on creating new marketing content directly in Contentstack.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Nothing! There have been a few hiccups with some of the more advanced things that we'd like to do (e.g. future publication preview) but those all pale in comparison with the challenges we had with our old system.

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

It allows our business teams to create and publish new content and experiences on their schedules as opposed to waiting for when the tech and ecomm ops team have time. This has been a big win for us.

It took over an overhead of taking care about technical solution for data storage and freed our capacity for the improvement on the delivering of this content to end user. Content Editors have full power and focus over their tasks without being disturbed for CMS specific tasks.

"The Best Decision"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

Contentstack's CMS has given us the flexibility to revolutionize our digital approach with speed and agility. From UX to Go-Live we move fast and pivot quickly. The "blank slate" approach sllows us to fully customize our CMS, and the ability to reference components from one stack to another eliminates duplicate content. The Customer Support and Technical Support is fast to respond and genuinely care for your work and success.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I would like to see more video tutorials and education.

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

The team was previously using a monolithic CMS that had little customization and opposed a fast-to-production approach. The results once we shifted to Contentstack were immediate and dramatic. Our team can partner Contentstack with APIs in a way that the customer does not know which came from where. The team can make changes quickly and, as we learn and expand our needs, we can continuously update and upgrade without any downtime.

"Time-saving Automation with Headless CMS"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The platform's automation tools save time and effort, and the headless CMS gives developers and marketers the ability to offer content experiences with speed and reliability.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

When using Contentstack for the first time, it might be challenging to foresee potential architectural problems. To avoid such issues, it's essential to examine scalability at the outset thoroughly.

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

I can quickly distribute dynamic content across several platforms with Contentstack without the assistance of developers or QA engineers handling dynamic material well.

"The Best Headless CMS I've used"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The collaboration and basic CMS features work really well and it is designed for teams (ie Mid Market to Enterprise) organisations. We love headless CMSs and this is the best we've used to date.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

The initial cost compared to other CMSs is high. But within a few months we agreed it was more than worth the cost.

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

Multiple websites and Apps (Eventually) that share content.

"Easy to use!"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I like the ease with which content can be created, the ability to have global fields to reuse within many templates, and the speed with which it works. So far I have not had a single drop in service in 3 months.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

It is somewhat complicated to create a custom field, perhaps the documentation should improve a bit

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

"Usability, simple and high performance architecture"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

Easy-to-use tool for creating and distributing content, integrated with the generation of practically automatic API, that is, little technology effort and with technical support of excellence in service and quality.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I miss an interface that can be configurable, such as adjustments and color changes.

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

The time of implementation in my company, where the architecture is complex and robust. IT teams are impressed by the ease of integrating their applications with content api, and business and marketing teams are fascinated by the ease of editing and publishing content. In addition to allowing integration with our digital asset structure, maintaining our digital asset management objectives.

"Everything a business needs from a headless CMS"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The CMS has the flexibility and functions to create anything you desire on a website. We haven't come across anything that we are unable to develop with Contentstack. Their support team is also the best in class with no scripted responses, and you are talking to a real knowledgeable team. The support team has been happy to jump on a call with me and go through the issues i have to help resolve them, which have always been our error (oops).

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Their production UI is a little janky at times, but they will be releasing updates to fix these user experience issues. They are very adaptive to issues and the experience you have using their software and have been very adaptive when improving their product.

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

We are moving to a headless eCommerce website. They have integrations with the current eCommerce platform we use. We can pull in all the product data required directly into Contentstack, which enables us to reduce the number of API calls on the website. The integration allows us to maintain the high performance of the website and also improved the workflow of our staff and development team, which is fantastic.

"Very easy to use, extremely valuable"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I like using modular blocks the best as they are a huge time saver for future content blocks.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I don't like that when I go into a content type builder and change an entry ID, it removes all content in that field. It's not a huge issue, just inconvenient at times that I need to update an entry ID but already have entries in that build.

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

The biggest problem we are solving is the process of making improvements and iterations of our copy. Contentstack is a game-changer when it comes to making quick copy improvements without relying on our development team and resources.
