Time saver and module-ception
Opmerkingen:
My organisation needed a complete rework of our website when our previous consultancy suspended their services. Our previous WordPress site no longer lived up to our demands for customisation and required quite a few work-arounds for the editors to structure content properly.
Upon partnering up with the web consultancy, 1508, we were advised to try Contentful as our new platform. Reasoning spoke to:
- freedom of structure and better scalability of content
- re-use of content across different web pages
- separation of content and presentation layer, resulting in faster development
- custom content types
- multi-channel distribution
Being able to customise our content to meet our specific needs in terms of design, layouts, flexibility and information architecture was key improvements for us.
We found that Contentful has a bit of a steep learning curve when coming from a traditional CMS platform such as WordPress. However, the benefits outweigh these challenges so far.
As a non-profit organisation, we were pleased to learn about Contentful's pro bono agreement for organisations that strive for positive change in society. Our eligibility for this programme made the choice so much easier for us.
All in all, we are satisfied with our new content platform, and are looking forward to exploring future developments and features.
Pluspunten:
The headless CMS saves us time when updating sections that are displayed in multiple places across the website. The risk of forgetting to update across all the required sections is smaller.
Minpunten:
The many layers of modules (I like to call it module-ception) takes some time to get used to when coming from a more basic CMS.
Contentful review
Opmerkingen: We moved from Prismic and it felt like a step up in ease and daily use
Pluspunten:
Was simple to use, SEO elements were easy to stay on top of too. image optimisation was simple as well
Minpunten:
Each CMS has their own pros and cons but i can't think of one significant issue
Easy To Use But Limited
Opmerkingen: Overall easy but I’d recommend a Webflow or Wordpress as a more elegant toral solution for content management.
Pluspunten:
I use Contentful to manage content for our website. Editing text and starting new templates is intuitive. Uploading images is easy. In fact, I learned HTML coding through add and editing Staff bios. Publishing and editing content is also easy although it’s not clear why un-publishing still requires you to delete content from categories/buckets even though the content isn’t live.
Minpunten:
The things I like least are the tools that I didn’t know exist. I didn’t know there were collaboration tools and I think image editing is limited. The UX on the platform itself is not good and features are buried.
Elevate your content with Contentful, it's covers all your needs.
Opmerkingen: The collaboration between content teams and developers, Contentful, helps pave the way for my stress-free day.
Pluspunten:
If your seeking to modernize your content strategy, Contentful should be your go-to-choice. I love how Contentful customization options and managing content for multiple platforms with on stress changed my day-to-day. Contentful provides all the right tools for your workflow to turn into an awesome workday.
Minpunten:
Additionally, when the new upgrade comes out for the user interface, it's tipping the scale of things.

The average headless CMS
Opmerkingen: I think it’s what you would expect out of a headless cms
Pluspunten:
I think it’s easy to get started as they have a lot of community to help you get started
Minpunten:
I think their own tutorials to get started are not enough to get started, you have to look deeply to start developing there
