Crafter’s highlights for us as a WebEnd agency
What do you like best about the product?
We love the idea of the Git-based repository. The fact that code, content and configuration is in
one place makes it very easy to synchronise dev, authoring and production systems. We can push
our features forward from dev to production and pull production content back to work with real data
on the development system. Testing features couldn’t be any easier than just switching branches.
And while we deploy new features to production authors can work without interruption.

What do you dislike about the product?
The market penetration of CrafterCMS isn't on the level it has to be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It’s great to be able to use APIs for everything. We can in fact render markup, serve content and
even use APIs for DevOps automation and processes. It makes Crafter highly flexible and gives us
the possibility to manage, integrate and deliver content anywhere at any time. Furthermore, it gives
us the freedom to work with any front end framework on top of Crafter’s headless content server.
And finally we are pretty overwhelmed by Crafters responsive support. We use Slack to get in
touch with them but there is a growing community in Google Groups and Stack Overflow as well.

Global enterprise solution
What do you like best about the product?
For many global footprint solutions I used the Crafter solution to power Marriott digital experiences. We found the software to be flexible enough to meet all of our customer touch points (mobile, desktop, kiosk, email, web, video) and the leadership team willing to jump in and develop solutions in partnership with us.
What do you dislike about the product?
They are a small company that delivers on big solutions. At times it was hard to get leadership on board to use a smaller company even through they demonstrated (repeatedly) their solution and people were up for it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used the solution in many ways and to solve many problems. Probably the biggest benefit to me was the ease of which we could create digital experiences that were integrated with existing platforms (e.g. measurement, email, IAM). Speed to market was another huge benefit for us. We used a combination of SaaS and fully managed solutions with Crafter. Products we built were for users in the hundreds of thousands.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In many years of working with the team and product I deployed multiple concurrent projects over an extended period of time. If I was in this space and needed a product I would start here - period.
Does the job!
What do you like best about the product?
Prompt customer service. Easy to send in tickets with issues. Can handle a large database without being slow. Love the new publishing options for the new system update.
What do you dislike about the product?
System updates take months. And some fixes mysteriously can't be addressed until a system update patch comes through, which means I'm stuck with a bad UI for months.
New Crafter update has some streamlined improvements, but doing away with scrolling menus makes using the sidebar soooo slow and clunky. Bring back scrolling for sifting through large databases! Clicking to "next 10" for a database with hundreds of entries is maddening.

Helped to turn a massive database of content into an easily manageable website.
Crafter CMS - My Exp with the tool

Easy to create templates, add/manage content and retrieve data as json/xml using rest calls.
What do you dislike about the product?
bit difficult to modify the core package if incase we need to write custom methods to the core package.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have automated the site content to get data from Crafter. Thus saving us time from Production move.
After an extensive search we settled on Crafter CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Mainly it's architecture, developer friendliness and tech stack.
What do you dislike about the product?
So resource intensity if you have a basic setup and a common use case was not provided out of the box but this was easily worked around.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a multi-purpose CMS for blogs, content sections, content fragments, augmenting products with headless delivery.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's definitely worth considering. The architecture is much more modern than many of the options out there and is built for scale. We have been very impressed so far. The support feedback even for the open-source version is very responsive.
well designed flexible architecture
What do you like best about the product?
Crafter CMS has well architected modular design, which gives us great flexibility during our adoption. We chose headless approach to use contents as service. The flexible architecture make the integration with Crafter CMS easy to do. The preview feature give content authors the ability to view contents as how they will render in the final web site no matter what type of rendering engine you choose.
Good product is only half of the story. We are particularly impressed by the superb support we get. You truly feel you can count on them as your partner. They listen to your need and work with you every step on the way to find the optimal solution.

I love how seamless the system is across all platforms and how it engages prospects and clients. I like how the developers take the time to explain the process behind the delivery.
