Kontent.ai Reviews & Product Details

We selected headless CMS, because in terms of the steps to get started with designing the content types and content population, it was certainly quicker as a starting point. We did not have to install traditional CMS somewhere or get too deep into page types and their setup. Kentico Cloud enabled the content population to start day-one of the project. There is a wide range of SDKs available for all major platforms.

The solution is still maturing and the content authoring experience could be improved.

Enabled the rapid development of a dynamic Vue.js website, with the ability to scale further as required,

Manage All Your Content in the Cloud Deliver Content to Any Website or Mobile Application Provide a Personalized Experience Kentico Cloud—the Solution to Digital Agency Problems Great for large scale, client-updated sites

Slow to load Bulky to install Naming conventions are not consistent with industry terminology (doctype, for example) Can't directly import .net code in all cases, sometimes forced to use Kentico solutions which take more time to implement than just writing code to a code behind.

Automated content sharing - Most of the content sharing that we do (site-wide) is set up through a manual process. The ability (or knowledge on how to do this) in an automated fashion would be ideal, and is something that we've been researching since launching our Kentico-powered site.

I think the content modelling and editing interface is great. I am able to craft my content models very quickly and the interface is snappy. The exposed features such as "discussions" and "workflows" are very good.

I can't seem to find a way to programatically create webhook notifications for content model updates. This would be veery useful for IaC setups

Some of the best things about Kentico Cloud is its ease of use, collection of connectors and boilerplates and its support level.

There's nothing major to dislike. Sure, there are some annoyances in the content editing flow and managing media items - but they are usually added to the read map pretty quickly so dont last for long!

Structured data separated from the design is key for a lot of customers. They can rest in the knowledge that their content editors can do their job without worrying about breaking brand or causing functional issues on the site. The speed doesn't go a miss either!

The building blocks can be reused in other pages without having to rebuild the entire page. Also, the ease with generating new pages for events and the interconnect ability between them. It is also realy usefull that you can find all sorts of content based and implement it in a new page with ease.

It's annoying that there is no auto-translate mode or side-by-side edit mode for the different languages. It would also be great to be able to select a single piece that needs to be taken over to other languages. It can hard to upload pictures as you need to do that at a different place inside of kentico, and then select the picture again on the page you want to edit. Because of this you are forced to work in a centrain way and it is less easy to make a quick change with the images that you already have on your computer.

Better event pages, otherwise we did not have a different CMS system before we started so I have not solved issues i previously had. Otherwise, we use this in addition to social media to tell people about our events through our own website.

Kentico Kontent is just like every other good headless CMS out there; allows for rich content modelling, focuses on content workflows and importantly allows for it all to be interacted with through code. Where Kontent shines however, is in the team behind it. I am constantly impressed at how many 'new feature' emails I receive from the team, most recently being the 'Spotlight' feature which allows for content preview within the CMS - exactly what our marketing team were after. All the way through Kentico have been very receptive to our feedback, I'm excited to see what comes in the year ahead.

As an enterprise customer we make heavy use of automation in a number of our other platforms in order to keep consistently and have a strong governance. Kontent lacks the ability to manage users, teams and projects through an api which means there has to be a lot of manual work in order to get a project up and running. Additionally, although single sign-on is available, its a fairly basic setup. Again, as an organisation with a large user base it improves our operational teams lives when a product can integrate deeply with our identity provider. Better system management through and API and a richer single sign-on feature set would make Kontent perfect.

Our organisation has a large portfolio of websites, although our journey isn't complete, Kontent has allowed us to realise an easier world to manage all of them.

Modern administration environment. Pleasant and modern appearance of the final web presentation.

Very complexity of translations of texts. Something is in the form. Something in the Kentico cloud. Something in the settings. Something right on the page. For me, as a beginner, crazy confusion.

Currently, I only deal with translations that have been in status "In Progress" for a long time.

The malleability of the platform to make live changes as needed quickly.

There are a lot of little things to remember for functionality that takes some time to get used to if you're not the main user.

Marketing to target audiences and Kentico has allowed a lot of flexibility for us to make changes as new data comes.

easily way to upload contents. dashboard user friendly.

too many click for creating a new version of the content to perform the changes

our website in now cooler and more user friendly. the navigation is at a very high level.

What I like about Kentico Kontent is that non-tech people can add content and change taxonomies pretty easily if the developer implemented everything correctly. The content editor is pretty nice as well and other than that it has a nice and intuitive UI.

What I dislike about Kentico Kontent is probably the API. It's pretty much useless without an API to connect to, and that's expected, but the API is horrid. It's super slow. We tried using their SDK, and the SDK experience is a nightmare. Super unintuitive and very bloated. To anyone trying to use their content on Kentico Kontent, just skip the SDK. Build some wrapper yourself.

We are storing user documentation on Kentico, also some blog posts that get compiled down to static content. The best benefit is that our product owners can edit stuff by themselves and it gets automatically propagated to the users.

Easy to manage multiple contributors' content.

Sometimes the rigid publishing process can be more time consuming than we'd like, but it also helps prevent mistakes.

Content managements across multiple sites, with multiple contributors.

The UI Is getting better, good features are developer. Centralization of content for multiple platforms

The API and developer experience is not that polished as the UI and editor experience. The Caching on the API side could be implemented in a better way. Currently the first request to the API is very slow due to cache being implemented in an first access manner.

Centralized content management. The benefits are that we don't have to host our own CMS and develop backend solutions.

Ease of use, highly intuitive and straightforward to use.

Some clients might find it expensive to use

Decouples the content from the rest of our digital landscape allowing us to re-use it in various platforms.

Having used a wide range of CMS over the past 10+ years, Kontent by Kentico is the easiest, simplest and best CMS I have used. The speed of adding and formatting content, image and other elements is great - makes the process of creating content that is engaging visually and for SEO straightforward and easy.

No dislikes. The Kentico team has always been fast and responsive to feedback, and they often roll-out practical improvements and updates. Compared to other CMS on the market Kontent by Kentico is superior.

We publish original content on a daily basis, and the speed of using Kontent by Kentico and populating content in the system means we can spend more time on creating great content and the SEO process.

Everything, from how customisable it is, to the ease of consuming the CMS. The team are very helpful and have great written docs. If there's anything I'm confused about, you can have a quick chat with the devs directly on their website.

Not entirely Kentico's fault but if having access to more than one production environment per project.

CMS problems, delivering and consuming content for my application.

Kontent by Kentico allows you to manage content from a single location and distribute it to a large scale of applications in the designated form (omnichannel). Kontent by Kentico helps you understand the headless concept and ensures that you correctly apply headless best practices while producing content.

It is (currently) not possible to extend the platform with custom functionality like our own set of editing controls. I believe that this functionality would help us as an agency to optimize the author experience for our clients. It will also help us to get more business as a technical company.

We don't have to invent the wheel. Kontent by Kentico offers several project boilerplates to get you started with any type of project. For example we could get a campaign website project up and running within a couple of weeks without having taking care of hosting and installation. Also the CMS has a minimal learning curve.

The program is very 'to the point' and no time is used inefficiently. I appreciate that this event is done live, and the company is so good at what they do that it is seamless and appears it could have even been recorded. Every year I come back because I find it interesting and intriguing to learn more about the available features. I also the variety of topics covered.

Unfortunately, there is not much downtime during their event. This causes the inability to truly have a lunch break if you need one. If you take one, odds are you likely will miss something that could be interesting, important, or intriguing.

With the event, I am solving problems related to efficiency in our workplace. I have realized there are always more features I wasn't aware of until I attended this event.

Kentico enabled us to create website content quickly, with the minimum of fuss and without having to bring in IT support. It also gave a preview of the new content in context so we could proceed confidently with a clear picture of how the finished work would look. Because we had a team that worked on content together, it was helpful to have a simultaneous editing option that enabled them to edit the same piece but not delete the work of their colleagues. It was user-friendly and focused on the things we needed and I appreciated that.

Nothing. It's a good CMS from a good, supportive company.

The problem Kentico solved was that our content creators were able to put together high-quality website content without having to involve our IT people.

Structure of platform, easy and quick translations

I think there is nothing that i disllike, all is good and logically structured

For forst time i have some problems with log-on credentials, but operator from platform help me

The fact this product is headless reduces the technical overhead, on both initial build and on-going maintenance.

I can't think of anything I do not like about this product.

One of the big benefits to Kentico Kontent is to remove the security risk that comes with Content Management Systems. There's no need to expensive maintenance contracts to ensure we're up to date with patches. Another benefit is when it comes to redesign the website int he future we do not need to pick an agency that supports a particular technology stack.
