Contentful vs Jahia Digital Experience Platform

• Clean, modern interface (not clunky and outdated, like WordPress)
• High degree of flexibility (I can structure data any way my clients need)
• Enables headless frontend (i.e. I can build any frontend I want without having to change my CMS)

• Its customization capabilities, Jahia does not disrupt creative autonomy as some of its competitors do. On the contrary, its modules and components are totally customizable, ensuring that you have your unique identity on the web without seeming similar or a "copy" of something already online.
• The ease of use, Jahia is extremely simple and easy to use, even users without great experience will have no problem dealing with it thanks to its intuitive interface.
• The technical support of Jahia is another strong point, service is always fast and enlightening, they really do their best to help in every way possible.

• The new Contentful "branches" feature looked promising (it appears to mirror a git-like repository) but it requires the CLI, which isn't necessarily practical for teams that aren't current CLI users. It would be nice if the management of this feature were available via the UI (without that it causes more confusion than anything).
• The Contentful data modeling method makes for a bit of an awkward SDK developer experience in some strongly typed languages like Java. Most things that you might need can be accomplished, but it feels like the experience could be smoother.
• It would be nice if there were a way to migrate data between spaces (e.g. from your staging space to production).

• Jahia would benefit from broader marketing and user-base. Great software, hidden gem still.
• Functionality-wise, adding an email campaign capability would really round out a full end-to-end stack.
• In context help, as we cycle through authors, retraining would be easier if admin screens had help in line.

• Positive: faster changes and new associates can easily navigate without prior training/knowledge of CMS to make content updates
• Negative: Our website manager/provider can keep certain abilities (like changing specific images) so they can charge a fee for making the change

• The full Enterprise package with Form Factory and Marketing Factory included provides the best user experience as the sites are more dynamic and adapt themselves to end users profiles. You are likely to get a much better targeting of the content this way, but of course it has a cost
• Jahia is robust and reliable and is a good base to build up on digital transformation
