Efficient and Effective CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Headless CMS Architecture, Good interface, Scalable
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning curve and third-party integrations
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Developer productivity , content management efficency
We are using CMS for publishing entries to a website-app platform with over 15,000 active users.
What do you like best about the product?
There were indeed many instructional documents for me and the team to access and learn from during the project development period, which was very short, starting from October 2023 and concluding in January 2024.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, my team is facing the following challenge:
A Unique ID is generated once, useful for successful API calls, but previously we set up that entry with only one attached file. However, now there's a need to attach more files to a single entry, which leads to errors causing the loss of many previously published entry data, and at the same time, we cannot find a way to modify the entry accordingly... Also, with a unique ID for an entry, there's nothing much we can do... there are too many difficulties to describe... sorry for those.

What do you dislike about the product?
Though there are scalable pricing plans tailored to different user needs, the cost of subscription licenses, especially for enterprise-level features, can be substantial

Unified view of the content data, Integrating Contentstack with existing systems and tools streamlines the data flow, it enhances operational efficiency, and enables us to leverage a unified view of customer data
The easiest way to build a website
What do you like best about the product?
Changes are super easy to make and you can personalize your page as much as you want. The interface is super user-friendly. I use it on a daily basis with my team. They can be autonomous even if they have no programation skills, which is great added-value.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact when you change the name of a picture after having uploaded it, if you search for this new name, it is not taking it into account. Only the first name of an image can be used in the search field.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the past, we were using a very old software that required programming skills. It preveneted us from having the whole team working on the website. Contentstack is completely solving this issue.
Nice platform to update the website
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can easily search all the pages and it is easy to publish changes. I use it daily and it has never crashed. Whenever I have an issue, it is also very easy to get help.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that it is hard to look for images because when you search the name it does not always appear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
contentstack helps me update the website. It gives me a lot of flexibility to make changes.
Efficiency and Flexibility in Content Management
What do you like best about the product?
What impresses me the most about Contentstack is its intuitive and highly customizable interface. The ease of creating and managing content collaboratively is exceptional. Additionally, it's API-first approach allows seamless integration with others systems and provides a truly flexible and efficient development experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
While my overall experience with Contentstack is very positive, I would like to see improvements in the area of documentation and technical support. Sometimes, finding specific resources or resolving issues can take longer than desired.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contentstack is playing a pivotal role in managing content across our entire non-logged-in environment, as well as handling all the content for our various blogs. By centralizing content management through Contentstack, we've achieved significant efficiencies in content creation, editing, and distribution processes.
With Contentstack, we've been able to manage a diverse range of content types seamlessly, from articles and blog posts to multimedia assets and product information.

It is user-friendly and easier to keep track of the changes and I like the custom plugin feature.

What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see the "branches feature" come out soon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Headless structure makes it easy to use and implement
Decent CMS
What do you like best about the product?
- It's flexible and does most of what we need it to do
What do you dislike about the product?
- It's not necessarily a dislike but if you're coming from a 'page based' CMS like Wordpress the way you build pages might take a while to understand
- There's no page tree/foldering system so it's hard to understand site architechture, although this seems to be a limitation of all headless systems
- Customer support is ok, but not amazing

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- It's a CMS, so it allows us to publish content on our site/app etc without going through developers
Probably has lots of great features, but as an end user, it has some aspects that drive me crazy.
What do you like best about the product?
Seems powerful and modern.
Does what you tell it to do.
I don't know but there are probably lots of features that can be implemented.
Can't comment on customer support as I don't have access to that.
Despite all the annoying issues I am fond of it.

Despite all the annoying issues I am fond of it.
What do you dislike about the product?
As an end user, it's hard to find features and customise workflows.
Why isn't it possible to organise files by name/date/other quality? It drives me insane that you can't do that and they're always organised by "recently opened". What if you need to work through a list of them (thousands, say) and have no way of marking, tagging or knowing where you're up to?
It should be more possible to make batch changes to certain types of files.
It should be easier to see previews of how images will be cropped in certain formats.
Also when creating/saving new files such as photos, I do not want to have to look for the correct folder which is in a different position each time. I do NOT want the folders to mix up their order depending on what someone else clicked on recently. I want the folder architecture to remain the same each time so that it's easy to use. This leads to another problem, duplication. Why is it possible to create two folders of the exact same name? Recipe for disaster.
Another incredibly silly thing is that there is no preview function you can access before making a change or making a new page live. This makes it impossible to be creative/experiment/fulfil new requirements.
Why is there a whole second block of WYSIWYG input that we are not allowed to touch, but that can't be deleted?
The time and date system for events doesn't allow us to customise according to our brand style guide. It also doesn't account for daylight saving where you need to change the timezone from AEST to AEDT. Need to be able to fix this on our side not just accept it.
Sometimes it feels like ContentStack is a platform that has never been used to create a website before, so we are requesting all these very reasonable fixes that require weeks/months of work to implement.
The platform makes it really hard to see and click and find what the content actually says in the back end, because there are so many other fields and the important main content boxes are collapsed all the time.
Why is there NO SPELL CHECK available for a content management platform.
Make it make sense...

Flexible, customizable website development with attentive customer service
What do you like best about the product?
Great for those wanting flexibility and control, Contentstack provides a user-friendly platform that allows for easy customization of your website at any time. It was easy from the get-go to navigate any edits, and I appreciate being able to create website pages with little to no background in website development!
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features seem to be a little restricted with how many personalisations you can make, however the team at Contentstack are always happy to try to work with us to make the changes we want possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contentstack is solving the problem of rigid, outdated websites by providing a platform that allows us to customize our site whenever we need, giving us the flexibility to adapt to our changing business needs and ensuring we always have a fresh, relevant online presence.
