What do you like best about Contensis?

With modern Contensis, the simplicity. I've had to demonstrate it's use to many colleagues across our NHS Trust and they have all found it intuitive as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contensis?

At the moment, we're still hopping between Contensis classic and modern Contensis so I find this process slow and laggy. I also find Contensis classic to be not very user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Contensis solving and how is that benefiting you?

I like how we're able to have lots of editors so the extra responsibilities do not fall to us as a communications team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Contensis?

The headless CMS is really impressive, and as good or better than any better known CMS out there. The regular improvements and new features that ship are significant. We've been able to use the content delivery API to display the same content in different apps front-ends, and have gotten friendly and patient client and developer support along the way as we've run into questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contensis?

Emergencies are responded to quite well, but tickets about "bigger", non-urgent questions can take longer to respond to or need chasing or they'll be forgotten. For example, project structures. We have also had some significant issues with publishing queue on Classic Contensis, the legacy version, but the support for those issues has often felt short-term and piecemeal without getting to the root of the problem. We do intend to upgrade, but it's a significant project in itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Contensis solving and how is that benefiting you?

Contensis has the capability to be the central digital/web content service of an organisation. That means not just the public facing website, but also personalised content to users, aggregation and filtering, and allowing other websites and apps to consume the same content that lives and is updated in the same place, in an extremely user-friendly interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Laura McCullough of Contensis

Hey,

Wow, thank you so much for such a glowing review! 🌟

We're always working on improving our product, and hearing user feedback is instrumental to that. We’ll pass your feedback regarding tickets on to our support team.

We hope you continue to enjoy working with Contensis 🚀

What do you like best about Contensis?

the reusability with content types, they are simple for developers to build and content editors find them to be easier to work with over other systems we used in the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contensis?

Contentsis can be difficult to work when the system is acting slow or doesn't load at all. It can be frustrating, especially in meetings and training to have the system freeze on us. This can also cause us to lose work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Contensis solving and how is that benefiting you?

Content creation and editing content. Contentsis helps to ensure our content is flexible but reconisable and consistent across all channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Contensis?

I really like working with content types and entries. Being able to break components down into exactly what you need is great. It helps to speed up the planning and site build process, as content can be inputted independently from the code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contensis?

I would like it if it was easier to set permissions for users on a node rather than a content type. It would make it easier to keep users access up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Contensis solving and how is that benefiting you?

Contensis is helping our staff manage and update our corporate and intranet sites.

By providing a simple backend process for users, we can divide the site up into sections and make sure each are kept up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Olivia Turner of Contensis
