Contentstack serves as my main solution for headless architecture, where I manage all product listing pages, product detail pages, metadata, images, navigations, and mega menus through a headless approach. I deliver all PDP, PLP, mega menu, and assets via Contentstack, where React uses it as a JSON structure and renders it on the pages.

The best feature of Contentstack is that without coding, I can deliver all headless information to React or any other front-end applications. Additionally, I can manage assets easily, the mega menu, and tagging and references. Contentstack has positively impacted my organization as it represents a long-term engagement and delivers a better headless approach compared to Adobe Experience Manager, though there are some caching issues that need to be addressed programmatically. Contentstack has saved time and improved efficiency, and compared to other products, it is cost-effective and not expensive.

For improvement, I want to clear the cache for the pages, as Contentstack does not provide a default way of invalidating the cache. I need to write hooks and webhooks to implement this functionality, while other products are more comfortable for clearing or invalidating the cache.

Another area where Contentstack could improve is digital assets management, as it is not beneficial for storing videos, large DAM assets, or digital assets. Improvement in that area would be valuable for my organization.

The main areas for improvement in Contentstack are digital assets and caching. The remaining features are functioning adequately.

I have been using Contentstack for the last one and a half years.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Contentstack an eight. I chose eight because most applications are moving to a headless approach, and with other products, a lot of coding and additional work is required, whereas here, within a few hours, I can publish content and provide the endpoint to the front-end application to utilize it. My advice to others looking into using Contentstack is that if your application is pure headless, do not go with other products, as Contentstack is more than enough to handle your headless content information. I would rate this product eight out of ten.
