Lowering the costs of owning a CMS

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Decap CMS from other similar products?

Overall, Netlify CMS provided me with a really pleasant experience, and when I consider its assistance, this experience becomes even more impressive for me; our company websites are hosted on the platform and are maintained through Netlify DNS. The scalability of its static site function gives us a user-friendly editing interface for our material.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I haven't had any complaints about this CMS that is both affordable and simple to use. This tool is built fantastically specifically for the finest content editing and to provide us access to a variety of website themes so we can make our websites more engaging as well as the user's favorite. The platform is simple to use and provides a great deal of versatility.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The material usually frustrates me since the information I require is never found there. What I miss or believe is difficult to achieve in Netlify CMS is having a WYSIWYG editor for bespoke components that I design. Another thing I detest is how difficult it is to tweak the features.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would recommend it because of its great features and a simple user interface. It's really simple to incorporate into a static application. It allows you to create a static website without having to pay any money. Because it's an open-source project, there's a lot of room for future enhancements.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Trustworthy

IT innovation for CMS to work faster and better

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Decap CMS from other similar products?

When I first saw Netlify CMS, I thought to myself, "Cool, maybe I'll try that someday when I'm researching CMSs for a new project." Then I realized it's a true CMS because it gives a content management interface to any static site builder that works with flat files!

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

With the best instrument, I had a fantastic overall experience. It can run a CMS without the need for a backend database or service. It allows me to use Git as a backend system for my CMS, lowering costs and simplifying things for myself and my clients. For us, it's great. It gives high-quality work.

What do you dislike most about this product?

What I miss or believe is difficult to achieve in Netlify CMS is having a Graphical editor for bespoke components that I design. Another thing I detest is how all of the starts and examples force me to use Netlify for some reason or another, making it more difficult to install my unique auth service.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you're searching for an out-of-the-box static site solution, look at netlify. For anyone working on a modest project, this is still a viable alternative. I wouldn't advocate this for a client, and at that point, you should be paying for anything.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Reliable
  • Trustworthy
  • Efficient Service
