Kontent.ai is the industry’s first AI-powered content management system that helps the world’s leading organizations achieve an unparalleled return on their content.
Extremely pleased and surprised that this a open-source software. The features provided out of the box is extremely robust and reliable.
Since the project is Open-Source and community-driven, it's a bit hard to get support for very specific problems. Sometimes nobody responded to my questions on the official Slack channel.
I love that it is open source and the new version 9 is rewritten in JavaScript instead of PHP, so it is super fast and has modern features, like a GraphQL API.
The main problem are sql queries, there was a lot of bugs when tried to create/update data or fields. If you enable cache (via redis for example) login is broken.
The GraphQL has been a great addition to the latest technology, and additionally, the community support is one the best I have had experienced. As I said, you will love it.
Directus lack of some auto installation such as auto add Systemd and Nginx or Caddy. You must setup them separately.
The beautiful design, the excellent community support, ease of deployment. In short, what's not to like.
No option for push pull control of database for offline usage.
Experience has been great. Technical documentation is good, and the example projects in various languages has been helpful.
I have had problems uploading videos and photos to the site. I have also had problems inserting bullet points when necessary in my content.
It's a stable CMS and our website is fast on the front-end, thanks to our static rendered pages. As we have chosen for MACH architecture, Kontent.ai is the perfect CMS system.
The pricing is hidden and only shared with you upon request, the lack of transparency is troubling.
Overall it has been a good experience, the platform is stable, customer support is very helpful, it's definitely a modern headless CMS, well crafted.
I dislike that in Kontent.ai we are not able to replace a file without getting a new url for it, which makes it very hard to manage content linked to the resources.
Kontent is an awesome Headless CMS and great for content editors and developers.
I can't think of anything I dislike about the product.
