Headless CMS for Developers & Marketers

About Storyblok

Storyblok helps you organize your content for the world. It provides developers with all the flexibility they need to build reliable and fast websites, while giving content creators with no coding skills the ability to edit content independently of the developer.

80,000+ developers & marketers use Storybloks CMS to deliver powerful content experiences on any platform: Corporate websites, ecommerce sites, mobile apps, and screen displays.

Problem
Customers demand sophisticated digital experiences, developers struggle with managing content on numerous unique platforms, and marketers can’t control content on their own.

Solution
We provide a headless CMS that enables developers and content creators to deliver powerful content experiences on any digital platform, one block at a time. Developers create flexible components that are independently managed by content teams using a visual editor and customizable workflow. Published content is delivered through an API, so changes are made once and will appear everywhere: websites, mobile, IoT, AR/VR, and beyond. No longer is there a need to be locked into a traditional CMS for each platform.

Experience
Leading brands such as Adidas, Pizza Hut, and Coca-Cola use Storyblok to manage and share their content with the world. Over 80,000 projects have been created with Storyblok, and we have more than 1100 partners.

Results
Developers and marketers can do what they do best and deliver compelling content to customers, wherever they may be.

Some of the main features include:

- Limitless technology support: Some examples of technologies that are being used to create awesome projects with Storyblok: Next.js, Nuxt.js, Gatsby, Vue.js, Gridsome, React, Svelte, Javascript, Angular, PHP, Laravel, Ruby, Django, Python, ASP.NET, and the list goes on.

- Real-time Visual Editor: Users can edit websites as they browse. The real-time visual editor gives you a preview of the changes made to a website in real-time without the need of saving & deploying them.

- Components-based approach: Content blocks allow the developer to reuse those components elsewhere, refilling them with new content each time if necessary.

- Content Workflows: Storyblok allows you to define multiple workflow stages of your content and publish only approved changes.

- Image Resizing: Storyblok transforms, optimizes, and caches images in a CDN for fast websites and apps.

- App Store: With the app store, users can selectively add features to Storyblok.

- Fine-grained access control: Manage access down to field level. Create roles and ACLs to enable safe publishing, while preventing unauthorized changes.

- S3 Backups: Add additional security with backups. Configure manual or automatic daily backups of your content and component definitions to your personal Amazon AWS S3 bucket.


Key benefits of Storyblok

Limitless technology support
Build projects faster with a CMS that enables developers and content editors to manage their content.

Storyblok is a CMS that works with all technologies, and frontend frameworks and fits all your projects. Call it Jamstack or cloud-native, Storyblok supports it all.

Some examples of technologies that are being used to create awesome projects with Storyblok: Next.js, Nuxt.js, Gatsby, Vue.js, Gridsome, React, Svelte, Javascript, Angular, PHP, Laravel, Ruby, Django, Python, ASP.NET, and the list goes on.

Real-time Visual Editor
Let your users edit websites as they browse. The real-time visual editor gives you a preview of the changes you make to your website in real-time without the need to save & deploy them.

Components-based approach
Nestable content blocks make content management easy, even within complex layouts.
You may already create components like teasers, grids, or feature sections. Content blocks allow the developer to reuse those components elsewhere, refilling them with new content each time if necessary.

Content Workflows
Set up your own content staging workflow. To run a reliable production environment it is crucial to define different stages to test your content before it goes live. That’s why Storyblok allows you to define multiple workflow stages of your content and publish only approved changes.

Image Resizing
Transform your images on the fly. Storyblok transforms, optimizes, and caches your images in a CDN for fast websites and apps.

App-Store
Only use the features you need. With the app store you can selectively add features to Storyblok. This keeps the UI clean and allows you to extend Storyblok even with your own apps.

Internationalization
Choose between field level translation or folder level translation. With Storyblok you can define your own content localization strategy to serve multiple countries and languages.

Fine-grained access control
Manage access down to field level. Create roles and ACLs to enable safe publishing, while preventing unauthorized changes.

S3 Backups
Add additional security with backups. Configure manual or automatic daily backups of your content and component definitions to your personal Amazon AWS S3 bucket.

storybook can be a great option for creating and producing content for developing companies and startups. Because it has a lot of flexibility for both developers and users. The headless feature of this CMS is very valuable for developers and teamwork, it speeds up the operation and can be used to operate a new digital platform. You can easily generate and manage any type of content for any device. Content personalization is available due to the modular content of the blocks and the features and tools of this platform.

Pros

Generating content for an international audience through Storyblok’s internationalization and localization tools is so easy for our team. We’ve accessed our data via a meaningful GraphQL API. Also, I like StoryBlok’s Intelligence in producing and auto converting content to responsive pages and visible on all devices with any page size and resolution.

Cons

The development team is constantly making useful changes, and everything will be better if they develop UI.

Cons

There is more of manual clicking on its interface. Any small change request took their business team several days to resolve and stablise the software.
We are using library editor for editing purpose. It often hangs and does not save changes while operation
Interface experience could be further improved to next level.

Alternatives Considered

Kentico, CUE Content Hub, Contentstack and Contentful

We do not face any trouble while deploying the software across nay business vertical neither any integration issues. Stability is there which results in more dependability and customer wants to stick to the software and doe not want to change the services or jump to another vendor.

Do not waste your resources on this software. It's filled with critical bugs.

Reviewed on 2022/07/07

Pros

It's hard to like something when nothing seems to work and you waste countless time and other resources on it.

Cons

This product has cost our business countless hours and resources in implementation due to its unparalleled level of bugs. They have a V1 and V2 beta. However, neither V1 or V2 work. Both our team of editors and developers have been rage clicking the platform for weeks now, trying their best to implement it, only to be met with one bug after another. This is expensive software and there are far better options than this. Don't waste your time and resources like we have.

I would love to feel more empowered as a developer.

Reviewed on 2021/10/05

Pros

The documentation is easy to follow – most of our team had not issue grasping the concepts, interface and provided tooling.

The tutorials continue to be helpful for us, when new developers join our team.

Where the documentation is unclear, the costumer service is able to clarify.

Cons

Assets cannot be scheduled for release, like content entries are. This is inconveniencing.

I often find myself feeling disappointed with the features on content delivery APIs (REST & GraphQL).
Most recent example is that most of the available filters can only perform operations where "filter = X OR Y".
I would, at least expect that we're able to query the api based on "filter = X AND Y"

While sparring with my clients or peers I always push for solutions that do not involve "custom fields", "sidebar apps", etc.
To me, it feels too much effort for too little in return because the "ecosystem" is closed.
In these moments I often find myself wishing for a dedicated API just for the web interface, instead of what is provided now.

A great and simple tool, which could use documentation of the same level; lower tiers also lack some features, but overall a nice piece of software

Pros

Setup is simple, intuitive, and, while not the most visually appealing platform, it is lightweight and makes organizing and delegating tasks much easier

Cons

Could use with a revamp of the documentation, which at times don't really approach all the scenarios a user might face when getting started
