Contenful is great for building web pages and store content libraries

  • May 17, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Contentful is very easy to use and understand, even if you have never used it before. It gives the ability to customize and save templates, so every simple and specific action can be done in just a couple of minutes. Besides, it has a high level of flexibility, so you can structure your data in any way you want and it is a secured platform, counting with a very reliable system of verification and control of input entries.
What do you dislike about the product?
To be honest, I have never encountered an issue with Contentful. Maybe it’s because I use it only for some basic activities, which are done quickly by using the templates. However, some of my colleagues have told me its biggest issue has to do with integration, because it doesn’t support many solutions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my organization, Contentful is used across several departments, but it is specially deployed in the Marketing Department for building web pages and store content libraries. Before Contentful was purchased by my company, the backlog of development had to be done manually, taking a lot of time and effort for the team. Now it can be completely done in a couple of minutes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Contentful is the proper content management tool. I would recommend it for companies or personals with a decent amount of data to manage. If you need to handle large size data, you may need another software as Contentful is more suited for simple actions. Also, I would recommend it for WordPress users, as the UI is very similar, so you will learn it very quickly.

Great Headless CMS

  • April 08, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Contentful is GREAT at modeling content. It's awesome to be able to model your content to represent your actual content and deliver it via simple SDK's and leave the rendering of that content to your web application, mobile app, etc... It also makes re-using content really simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like to see more built-in field types. The new rich text editor is pretty good, but is missing things that are required for it to be truly useful in a web app setting.

Also, with lots of content, the content editor can be a little overwhelming. You can save custom views which is basically just a single content type filter. Would be great to be able to create views that combine several related types of content, filter by a property, etc...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Right now we're utilizing Contentful for our non-profit's web site. The big benefits have been independence from developers and ease of content entry. It's also extremely fast!

A breeze to create content in Contentful

  • April 04, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
User Interface: The UI is a breeze to use; it took 10 minutes to really navigate the platform.

Training: It was easy for me as the project lead to train our staff, interns and our volunteer who is a mature adult (>50 years old).

Localization: Adding additional languages is also very easy!
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't come across any dislikes yet, to be very honest!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is the first platform we've used to organize content for our mobile app; before Contentful we had an ancient custom portal which was clunky and frankly, outdated. The benefits are endless!

Fast to get started, great developer resources and removes our worries of content infrastructure

  • April 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Getting started was very quick. We don’t have to worry about security updates, fixing issues that cause downtime, or managing the global network that serves the CDA. We don’t have to worry about developing/supporting the core features of the CMS UI, and a lot of what we need exists in Contentful as standard fields or UI patterns. Over the lifespan of our project, we have constantly noticed improvements in functionality and admin/editing UI. The continuous development of Contentful is evident with daily use. The CMA is also quite nice, offering clear verification steps during migrations that make for good record keeping.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some developer-facing tools/docs are lacking, but that has improved over time. Still, it can be difficult to find the docs you need unless you know the terminology you’re searching for (e.g. UI Extension SDK). Building more relational queries in a single request (i.e. using GraphQL) would be very nice, but that function only comes at very high price tiers. Multilingual data entry UI really needs improvement. For a site that supports many languages the UI becomes unmanageable with duplicated fields everywhere. Although Contentful is often marketed as a “backend-free” solution, any amount of customization to the existing CMS patterns involves some backend work, either within the consumer app or with the CMA doing migrations and so forth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We built a content publishing system. We have rapidly evolved a legacy system of PDF downloads to a modern, mobile-friendly CMS.

Great flexibility and value, odd at first

  • March 06, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Model creation with the available wide variety of field types is great.
The basic Markdown text field editor covers lots of use cases.
Resizing images by just adding optional query parameters to the URL is magic.
The content model is very flexible.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Contentful content model is flexible, I'd even say too flexible for a simple paged website. It takes a while to grasp the Contentful-way of thinking about content. Not being able to categorize Models hurts in discoverability and creates a mess that can only be salvaged by namespacing them (e.g. "Page - Home ", "Page - About ") and then filtering ("Save as view" helps a lot here).
It doesn't seem as easy to edit for laypeople as say WordPress, but I can't back that up.
Multilanguage editing view could be improved I feel, displaying all languages at once can be overwhelming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Built a non-profit flyer-type website.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take a while to read the documentation regarding content modelling and think through your content architecture carefully.
