Pros

  • I recommend it because it has systems that can be managed without problkema by marketing or fiction professionals responsible for business sales and content.

  • Quite manageable and keep coming with novel features. High reliability on editing and formatting services of content.

  • My Overall experience is very good with Storyblok.

  • Storybook can be a great option for creating and producing content for developing companies and startups. Because it has a lot of flexibility for both developers and users.

Cons

  • I'm not going to say that Storyblok is a horrible product because it's not. It has value, and it has a market.

  • Clicking on an element on the page opens up the parent block rather than the child block that was being clicked.

  • When developers are over-resourced, there's no one available to make those changes since content side won't get access to the code. The structure to setup the webpages are sometimes backwards.

  • This is inconveniencing. I often find myself feeling disappointed with the features on content delivery APIs (REST & GraphQL).

"Power while being simple with a flexible platform that has a rich editor and headless features"

Overall: storybook can be a great option for creating and producing content for developing companies and startups. Because it has a lot of flexibility for both developers and users. The headless feature of this CMS is very valuable for developers and teamwork, it speeds up the operation and can be used to operate a new digital platform. You can easily generate and manage any type of content for any device. Content personalization is available due to the modular content of the blocks and the features and tools of this platform.

Pros: Generating content for an international audience through Storyblok’s internationalization and localization tools is so easy for our team. We’ve accessed our data via a meaningful GraphQL API. Also, I like StoryBlok’s Intelligence in producing and auto converting content to responsive pages and visible on all devices with any page size and resolution.

Cons: The development team is constantly making useful changes, and everything will be better if they develop UI.

Alternatives Considered: Contentstack, Joomla and Duda
Reasons for Choosing Storyblok: We reviewed the demo version and satisfied the simplicity and quick response and compatibility, and considered this CMS the best option.
Reasons for Switching to Storyblok: For teamwork and simultaneous project development, looking for a multi-purpose CMS with headless capability was our best choice for switching.

"Most customisable, user friendly software for content management of all kinds ! Try today "

Overall: Good so far. Loved the features though it needs lot of improvement in experience . High reliability due to its easy to adapt features and user experience. Quite manageable and keep coming with novel features. High reliability on editing and formatting services of content.

Pros: Story and content management through customised software in easiest way Tech savvy and user friendly softwrae. Everyone can use and operate the same at all the times. Highly stable across all kinds of business environments One of the smallest tools to create and manage content services for all the businesses. Cost optimization is achieved within 6 months of its usage

Cons: There is more of manual clicking on its interface. Any small change request took their business team several days to resolve and stablise the software. We are using library editor for editing purpose. It often hangs and does not save changes while operation Interface experience could be further improved to next level.

Alternatives Considered: Kentico, WP Engine, CUE Content Hub, Contentstack and Contentful
Reasons for Choosing Storyblok: Storyblok was chosen above all due to its low cost and cost optimization feature for organization. We do not face any trouble while deploying the software across nay business vertical neither any integration issues. Stability is there which results in more dependability and customer wants to stick to the software and doe not want to change the services or jump to another vendor. Quite satisfied overall with services and offerings. Content development is going to next level of quality assurance with Storyblok.

"Do not waste your resources on this software. It's filled with critical bugs."

Pros: It's hard to like something when nothing seems to work and you waste countless time and other resources on it.

Cons: This product has cost our business countless hours and resources in implementation due to its unparalleled level of bugs. They have a V1 and V2 beta. However, neither V1 or V2 work. Both our team of editors and developers have been rage clicking the platform for weeks now, trying their best to implement it, only to be met with one bug after another. This is expensive software and there are far better options than this. Don't waste your time and resources like we have.

"I would love to feel more empowered as a developer."

Pros: The documentation is easy to follow – most of our team had not issue grasping the concepts, interface and provided tooling. The tutorials continue to be helpful for us, when new developers join our team. Where the documentation is unclear, the costumer service is able to clarify.

Cons: Assets cannot be scheduled for release, like content entries are. This is inconveniencing. I often find myself feeling disappointed with the features on content delivery APIs (REST & GraphQL). Most recent example is that most of the available filters can only perform operations where "filter = X OR Y". I would, at least expect that we're able to query the api based on "filter = X AND Y" While sparring with my clients or peers I always push for solutions that do not involve "custom fields", "sidebar apps", etc. To me, it feels too much effort for too little in return because the "ecosystem" is closed. In these moments I often find myself wishing for a dedicated API just for the web interface, instead of what is provided now.

"Unique CMS solution for web development"

Overall: A great and simple tool, which could use documentation of the same level; lower tiers also lack some features, but overall a nice piece of software

Pros: Setup is simple, intuitive, and, while not the most visually appealing platform, it is lightweight and makes organizing and delegating tasks much easier

Cons: Could use with a revamp of the documentation, which at times don't really approach all the scenarios a user might face when getting started

Switched From: Wix, WordPress and Squarespace
