"Love the Scheduled Content Changes, Still Room to Grow"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The platform has given us the ability to schedule content changes to our website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I do not like that when I am making changes I cannot see what the layout looks like until I publish the changes. I would prefer to see the page rendered as it would be on the site to get an idea for the look and feel as I am working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Hi Kyla,

Thanks for sharing your feedback. We're glad the scheduled publishing capabilities have helped your team plan updates more easily without needing someone to manually push changes live. We also appreciate the input on previewing page layouts during editing. Feedback like this helps us continue improving the authoring experience.

Thanks again for your review and for being part of the Contentstack community.

"Scalable CMS with Intuitive Customization"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I like that Contentstack scales easily as we grow and allows our teams to create, structure, and update content independently across multiple digital channels and platforms. Its simple and intuitive user experience makes it easy for editors to use, while also providing the flexibility to customize it to our specific workflows and integrations. The way it helps power scalable, multilingual, and multi-brand experiences is also valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I would like to have a better way to migrate branches to another branch, such as copying the whole main, including assets, to the develop branch. The bulk import and export, including assets, could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Hi Pierre,

Appreciate you taking the time to share this. It’s great to hear Contentstack is helping your teams scale content across channels while enabling editors and developers to work in parallel.

Thanks as well for the feedback on branch migration and bulk import/export with assets. Input like this helps us continue improving workflows for teams managing complex content operations.

Thanks again for sharing your experience and for being part of the Contentstack community.

"Safe Publishing Workflow with a Friendly, Reliable Interface"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

I like that even if I make a change, it does not become live instantly, so in case of any accidents I can always revert and only once I am sure, then I publish and THEN the change is instant. Also, it is an extremely friendly interface and it almost never glitches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Sometimes it's connection with other platforms glitches (we had an issue with brightcove recently and that took a while to be fixed) & the storage could be bigger (we had to change image format for all images to accomodate it) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable, flexible CMS"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

The flexibility. Overall, it is a good CMS in terms of being able to develop it and mould it into what you need to fit your requirements and support the business. It has a good amount of features available and if something is not available, it's likely it can be developed and added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

Search function does not work very well when you have the amount of content that we do on our system. It can sometimes take a while to find the piece of content you're looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

"Intuitive Content Modeling That Bridges Developers and Editors"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

Contentstack makes it very easy and intuitive to build content models that effectively translate data fields into page content. The interface and configuration methodology make it easy to bridge the gap between the developer and the content editor when creating web content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

I've had a few instances where it took me a long time to find a relevant field in a larger content entry because a ctrl+f find command doesn't bring back any results for a collapsed field until you've expanded all fields. A "search within" feature while editing a content entry would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Hi there,

Thanks for the great review. We're glad to hear Contentstack’s content modeling helps bridge the gap between developers and content editors while supporting a more agile content workflow.

We also appreciate the feedback on searching within large content entries. Insights like this help our team continue improving the editing experience.

Thanks again for sharing your perspective and for being part of the Contentstack community.

It has a harmonized approach that allows us to manage all markets in scope on one platform, saving time and providing a structured, all-in-one place that is easy to use. This is especially valuable for maintaining our local websites during new product launches and promotions, as all our marketing communications are published there.

There are minor things which might be improved but nothing significantly at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive CMS: Why Contentstack empowers our non-technical teams"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

Contentstack has become a core component of our content operations, serving as the central hub for both our website content and all of our CRM communications. As a non-technical user, my experience has been largely positive, especially regarding how quickly we’ve been able to scale our content output and onboard new team members.

For our non-technical teams, the user interface is incredibly intuitive and easy to use. This simplicity is a massive win, making the platform genuinely simple to use and to onboard users without needing a deep dive into code or complex documentation.

I also appreciate the platform's modular approach, which gives us many different content "modules" to choose from. This flexibility allows us to structure content exactly how we need it for different channels. For my daily work, adding assets and localized content is straightforward. I can easily manage multiple language versions of an entry, which has significantly streamlined our international publishing workflows. The quick adoption and high comfort level among our editors prove the success of its design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

While the daily content editing is smooth, I do encounter a couple of recurring technical frustrations, particularly within the Asset Manager.

My biggest pain point is the occasional bug when uploading assets. The search function for a specific folder directly from the assets page often acts up. It will either fail to return results or just be generally unresponsive. The workaround is to click on "upload" and then search for the desired folder from that specific modal, which is a bit of a nuisance when I’m just trying to locate an existing image.

Also, while I find localization easy, I know other teams struggle with the platform’s limitations on bulk operations (like publishing more than 20 entries at once). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Hi Elizabeth,

Thank you so much for this incredible feedback, we’re thrilled to hear how Contentstack has become the hub for your content operations. It’s exactly why we designed our platform with intuitive workflows, modular flexibility, and streamlined localization at its core.

We appreciate you sharing your experience with Asset Manager and bulk publishing. Our product team is actively focused on optimizing both areas to make asset management and high-volume publishing even smoother. Thank you for being part of the Contentstack community and for helping us get better every day.

"Highly robust and flexible CMS"
What do you like best about Contentstack?

Contentstack's ability to automate processes is critical to our operations. We run a large utility company, and all notifications about construction and outages must reach our customers efficiently. With a well-established process in Contentstack, our customer service team is self-sufficient in sending out notifications. Automated processes ensure that the latest updates are always visible to website users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contentstack?

There are mainly limitations in the rich text editor that could be improved in my opinion. However, I think these are issues that our web cosultants could fix with a better setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bianca Anderson of Contentstack

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Contentstack! We are thrilled to hear that our platform has been instrumental in streamlining your operations and improving customer communication. Your feedback about the rich text editor is valuable, and we appreciate your suggestions for improvement.
