Cons I don't have any complaints, they have met all our needs. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Project Coordinator Consumer Goods Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Content with Contentful" February 17, 2019 5.0 Overall my experience has been good. Once I got a rough tutorial I had a pretty good handle of how to use it. There are still aspects I don't know how to use, but of what I do know its pretty fun website creator Pros I like how easy and quick it is to use. There are some things that are bit difficult, but for the most part its very simple and a great way to run a website. Cons There are aspects that are difficult, and sometimes hard to keep tabs on what is active and hard to back track if something does go wrong Review Source Luke J. Co-founder Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Technically rich, very solid headless CMS." May 18, 2018 5.0 Helping us build a new platform Pros I found Contentful to have strong technical quality, it was easy to get started, and had a pretty quick learning curve. We're going to be integrating it in several upcoming projects. Cons It is much better for new projects than for legacy ones, as importing prior content is very painful - there is some tooling for it, but it can still be pretty complex. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Directeur Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "I've used Contentful to develop the project of a corporate website." July 4, 2018 5.0 A fast, rich and 100% reliable development experience. Pros Contentful offers number of useful features and it's incredibly smart and simple to use. I also appreciated the great discussion I had with one of Contentful main programmer on Github : it helped me to go way beyond my expectations for a CMS. Cons There could be one more step in pricing for small projects like the one I often deal with. I can't really find any reproach. Review Source BB Ben B. Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Make new pages for your custom front end, without being a developer" July 29, 2019 5.0 Content makes me feel like a web developer without knowing how to code. Pros First, let me say I am not a web developer. With that said, Contentful makes me feel like one, as it allows me to create new pages for my company website easily, without infringing our standardized UI and UX. The biggest benefit of Contentful for my team is that it has allowed our web developer to focus on larger initiatives, while handing the power to create high-quality, visually-appealing web pages. He created the parameters, effects, buttons, etc inside Contentful, and now it's a sandbox my team can use to create new pages without bugging him. This saves a tremendous amount of time, and multiplies our effectiveness as a team. If we need a new landing page for an event, we can do that all on our own. Cons The only negative I can think about with Contentful is the learning curve for the team. Because it is a sandbox type environment, it may take a few meetings for everyone to get on the same page with what can and cannot be done. That said, it makes our lives so much easier now that we have it. Review Source AC Alicia C. Content & Social Media Manager Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best content management and headless CMS tool" May 5, 2022 5.0 Pros I like how easy it is to update content using Contentful. The features are super intuitive and the interface is user-friendly for beginners. Little coding experience is required compared to other platforms. Cons The preview feature is a little limited, so it's sometimes difficult to see what a page will look like before publishing. Review Source DK David K. Legal Content Developper Legal Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Incredible content management system" April 6, 2020 5.0 Pros Contentful is a fantastic tool for writing and managing content. It makes it easy to edit content dynamically. We used it to populate copy and graphics for a Facebook-based chatbot. The interface is intuitive and quick. 5 stars! Cons Nothing. It's tremendous. Takes a bit of time to learn how it works (like any new software). Review Source JW Job W. Technical Lead Used the software for: ### "The perfect solution if you're looking for a flexibel CMS for your projects" July 21, 2015 5.0 We choose Contentful for our project after comparing many other CMS solutions , whom all seemed to make the process more complicated rather than easier. Contentful on the other hand is a very flexible, straightforward and easy to implement backend system. It serves your data back in JSON which makes it perfect to connect any kind of frontend, without being limited by any predifined layout or formatting. The CMS interface itself is also very easy to manage. You define your content-types, lay them out exactly how you want them, and, in our case, let the client do the rest. All in all a perfect solution if you're looking for a flexibel and easy to use CMS system, and even more so when working with multiple platforms. Review Source SS Sofia S. Sustainability trainee Environmental Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Satisfied " August 27, 2019 5.0 Pros The software is intuitive and easy to use, even for a beginner like me. Cons I really don't have anything bad to say. Review Source JS Júlio S. Developer Computer Games Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A greate headless CMS" November 26, 2019 5.0 We've tried Contentful as a alternative to our custom backends. We ended up going with an open source alternative that was enough for our needs. Pros Contentful is a very easy to use solution for managing your content without having to develop a custom backend. It has many moderns features and a nice access control for your data Cons Compared to other solutions, it has a poor support for translations and the entry price is too high.

Frontend Developer Program Development Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Review Contentful" October 19, 2020 4.0 I'm enjoying while developing Pros Once I integrated contentful in my project, it was really easy to use and I think it's very useful and powerful. Cons I used Contentful for my own project. Some parts of the integration were a little bit difficult. Maybe a documentation more easier to understand for the newbies could be great.

March 25, 2015 5.0 Pro: + great API capabilities + cool features for mobile network constrained app experience + fast Con: - Editor could be prettier - App has sometimes glitches in Firefox (Chrome and Safari work fine) Review Source Response from Contentful March 26, 2015 The web app/UI is currently undergoing a big revision, so stay tuned for a great UX and task completion oriented edior. We will review the Firefox issues. Though our testing so far has shown nothing. MIght also be a plugin issue. KYW KYAW YAZAR W.
