"Even a simple request from the marketing team would require us to spin up new tables, wire them up to views, add a form for editing content, and worry about a dozen of other things."
“Having a ready-to-use API and mobile SDKs allowed us to roll out the custom solution in 3 days, instead of the more usual 8-10. It’s amazing to see how efficient Contentful was at eliminating boilerplate work.”
“Contentful is an API-centric CMS platform, and the API part is crucial for us, We need to be able to script and automate our entire export process for moving all our content to the new platform, and Contentful is a great tool for this.”
"Most of the content already exists within Contentful, as an entry, video, review or a technical spec on some other page. My job is just to pull all the relevant information into one place. It takes two minutes to do that."
"The logic of the Leeds Living app required each entry to have precise location data, but expecting editors to fiddle with longitudes and latitudes was unrealistic."
"Contentful has propelled our development process into a completely different level. We would have never achieved the degree of polish and sophistication in our service, if it was not for the capabilities afforded by this Platform.”
"To provide users with the most useful information, we need to vary the data we include for different types of places."
"What we ultimately liked about Contentful was how simple it was to use. If you were familiar with publishing on Tumblr or Pinterest, then you could also publish in Contentful."
"In Contentful, we finally have a tool that respects the time and effort of creative people."
"I've seen a lot of websites built in WordPress that should have never been built in WordPress."
"Contentful is a really well done headless CMS, flexible and fast. I think most developers value those things"
"Contentful is taking an API-first approach to enable ease of out-of-the-box authoring on the one hand, and ease of application development for consumption on the other."
"Contentful empowers us to create new layouts and weave intricate visual stories without having to wait for the IT department to deliver a new CSS or update the code."
"Contentful has a nice combination of a technically astute approach to an old problem and a big-name customer list that would appear to result in a healthy run-rate for such a young company."
"Transitioning to markdown was very simple for us… by eliminating the markup code that routinely gets smuggled from Microsoft Office documents it also reduced the time it takes to prepare an entry for publishing."
