    Contentstack
    Contentstack has flexible functionality which opens up a lot of possibilities for businesses with proactive web development teams to create their own website builder app to compete with 3rd party agencies. This is especially useful in a large enterprise where non-technical teams often turn to expensive outside agencies which cost more in the long run than an up-front investment into an in-house application.

    Cons
    Contentstack
    • In my opinion it's not very intuitive. I've found its difficult to understand how to best structure entries, especially if they are related
    • In my experience, entries can get difficult to understand if weren't the creator. It would be helpful to have some meta data around the entry itself and the fields within them in my opinion.
    • Integration with an A/B testing platform would be nice.

    Contentstack
    They have an in-app chat with their support team, who is always quick to respond and provide helpful answers. I've never walked away from an interaction without my issue being solved quickly and easily. They're also very communicative over email and are sure to follow up after any changes are made to ensure we're seeing the desired result. They are always very professional and easy to work with.

    Contentstack has better international hosting support then Contentful and we found the presales and sales support people were MUCH more responsive than Contentful. The Sitecore sales process was very very slow and overly complex. We felt Sitecore had many features that were not valuable and the cost to benefit ratio was much lower compared to ContentStack

    We have choosen OpenText WEM against other vendors because : 1. Helped client reinforce brand image
    through unique design language and templatization of collaterals, consistent
    messaging, and regular competitor benchmarking. 2. Enables lead generation through
    high-quality gated collateral, product videos, etc. 3. Senior management and sales lead meet
    client regularly for project review meetings and feedback on engagement

    Return on Investment
    Contentstack
    • Saved significant amounts of money that would previously been spent on 3rd party agencies to build websites
    • Empowered Comms teams to create and edit the design and content of their own websites on demand rather than relying on the Dev team
    • Allowed the Development team to concentrate on building functionality rather than websites, so we can focus on improvement rather than BAU work.
