Flexible, offers helpful web templates, and has good connectivity with third-party applications
Kentico is one of the top solutions on the magic quadrant. Currently, all of the development that we do, we hard-code ourselves. We don't use local development frameworks for other systems. We are looking to expand our use of Kentico by adding no-code or low-code products for rapid development. My advice for anybody who is implementing Kentico is that if they are transitioning into it then be sure to use a phased approach. Don't try to migrate everything right away. I suggest doing it over time and become familiar with the system. If it is only one site then it will not be too difficult, but normally, there are multiple sites. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Rapid landing page creation has boosted targeted campaigns and improved conversion tracking
Everything is actually great with Storyblok. One small improvement that Storyblok could make is that some of the more advanced configurations still require the help of our developers. It is not 100% developer free for us. This could be improved and made easier for non-technical people to do the work without the dependency of developers. Apart from that, I do not have any other major complaints or issues with Storyblok. In terms of knowledge-based documents, there are a lot of gaps in the knowledge-based documents that are available. A lot more work needs to be done there. Apart from that, the platform is very intuitive and very easy to learn, so we don't have any major issues regarding that.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I would say they have a modern, flexible, agile content management system."
"It has helped us establish our business in the USA and allows us to work with a range of corporate clients."
"The most valuable features are its integration capabilities and advanced marketing suite."
"Kentico is a very stable and mature system; it's one of the best on the market."
"Storyblok has positively impacted our organization by helping us do projects in a certain way with its really great features."
"Storyblok has positively impacted my organization because we delivered this website to a very important customer, and they were very happy with the management system."
"Storyblok has positively impacted our organization by helping our clients move away from traditional CMS and achieve a high-performance website along with reduced costs."
"With the help of Storyblok, we are now able to create landing pages in 20 minutes, whereas earlier it took around five to six hours, and overall, a 70% reduction in our overall deployment time has been achieved along with a 50% increase in our overall sales and revenue after the introduction of Storyblok."
"Most of the clients need to have full control over their websites, and this provides them with the biggest freedom, along with the live preview."
"The return on investment helps me scale my business; without it, I would not even exist probably, so the return on investment is huge."
"The best features Storyblok offers are the blocks building, how easy it is to use, the tag management, and the ability to easily manage pictures and assets in general."
"Storyblok gives us the flexibility to rapidly respond to client needs because every client project is going to be different, and it allows us to manage that in a simple interface which we love and our clients love too."
 

Cons

"This product needs an out of the box Intranet/Extranet Solution."
"They don't have a lot of libraries, which is something that they can improve on."
"I think Storyblok is the best CMS out there; however, I would rate it a nine because there is still room for improvement, particularly with the documentation."
"The only downside I would mention about my use of Storyblok in these projects was the cache management system that Storyblok has; it was not very good, but all the rest was amazing."
"I believe there are some parts that definitely can be improved inside Storyblok, such as the way content is listed out in certain areas, which makes it a little difficult to delete content."
"Storyblok can be improved by offering more flexibility in terms of schema creation, and it could also possibly improve the way assets are saved and persisted."
"I chose eight for my rating because I believe Storyblok still needs to work on localization, slugs, auto-translate, and all the plugins related to this part."
"They did change the pricing about 18 months ago, and at the lowest paid tier, they did take away a bit of the features or the number of seats you can get, so it can get expensive quickly, which is an issue when you're working with smaller clients who still want to have some flexibility."
"Also, the pricing is a little expensive, but the features offered justify the cost."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing fees are probably about $100,000 USD per year."
