User Testimonials
	Contentful	VR Maker by iStaging
Likelihood to Recommend	Contentful Well suited for our needs of multiple images for auto auctions from a variety of sellers. Pointing them to one platform is easier than attempting to use a variety of platforms as we were doing before (email, slack, Dropbox and Google Drive would randomly be used by a variety of employees ) Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	iStaging Their tools are super user-friendly and their staff have been very helpful along the way. Alex Teplish Author Read full review
Pros	Contentful Flexible. This CMS can be easily extended and provide access to dynamic content Simple. The WYSWG is very easy to work with and identifying pages and content in the system is fairly easy Clean Interface. The interface is clean and uncluttered keeping focus on the content and not other factors. Incentivized Jennifer Garcia Web Marketing Manager Read full review	iStaging User-friendly. Interactive. Supports all types of multimedia. Alex Teplish Author Read full review
Cons	Contentful Contentful uses "references" to allow you to build very modular content. If I have a "slider" content type, I can create a "slide" content type which references a "button" content type, and so forth. This works well, but I occasionally wish there was a better solution for one-off content, like a settings page. Currently, this is done for creating an entire content type called "settings" with a single entry. Not a big deal, but not ideal, either. There are a few quirks with GatsbyJS integration, etc, but these issues are being fixed and improved upon very quickly. A minor gripe, but Contentful does not have a way to organize fields within an entry. Entries with many fields are somewhat tiresome to scroll through.

Alternatives Considered	Contentful In the past we've used WordPress to manage documentation content. WordPress was more flexible than Contentful but also prone to inconsistencies and we ended having a lot of hacks to accomplish various WordPress tricks. With Contentful there's less ambiguity so content producers are less likely to go astray. We also have our own in-house programmatic template solution for managing content, but this was a previous pain point when we needed to get the dev team to do a deploy for every content change. Incentivized EM Eric Mason Lead Developer Read full review	iStaging I've looked into Artsteps and a few of the latest Meta makers and did not find them as user-friendly or robust.

Return on Investment	Contentful Positive - new hires are able to get onboarded quicker with us using Contentful Positive - we can customize the journey of what modules/material the user sees after a course/video/article Positive - it's been an overall game changer when hiring external candidates who need extensive training Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	iStaging Innovative method to teach.
