A multifunction tool

Reviewed 10 months ago

It is a superb content management tool which comes with 20 plus different features which we use it in our daily basis. Overall i would like to suggest their dev team to work more on the software and clear the bugs that we need tk face sometimes.

Pros

This is one of the tool which i can say it really helps. The deployment of the software was good and it was easy to onboard. Overall i would give a good ratings to the tool as their customer support team is tackling problems very well.

Cons

I can say here is that it requires a lot of improvements as it has entered many fields at the same time and it is lacking on some of the places to deliver healthy functionality.

Best Tool for Content Management and Marketing

Reviewed a year ago

Overall it's good and doesn't complain about any features because all are great as his performance.

Pros

After using contently, our content-related task is reduced by almost 30%. Because our most of kind of need are fulfilled by Contently is like Content Management, Content Marketing, Etc. So I suggest using this once. Just know how it works and how you can use it immensely quirky and easily better than other alternatives.

Cons

I used it for 6 months, and to date, I don't have any issue with Contently, so I don't have any points to say.

Contently is great for content management and workflow. Onboarding was somewhat painful.

Reviewed 3 months ago

I would say that the core of content planning and workflow is solid. I don't think we will ever be able to do all planning, editorial calendar, etc. in the system however. Getting analytics set up was painful and took too long. You don't get much choice in the ME assigned to you.

Pros

The content workflow is great and the ways that you can see who is working on what stories. Story filtering is robust and really useful. Plus, you can export the filter, which is helpful for offline planning. Commenting is great and it easy to copy/paste content or lay out content easily for web.

Cons

I wish you could search by story ID#. I wish the onboarding had a follow-up session to walk through features like the tabs on the right.

"Aids you to generate high-performing content that converts better."

Reviewed 10 months ago

I can manage the full editorial process using Contently, from ideation through workflow management, editing, and performance tracking. Reporting Dashboards assisted us in seeing our usage, plans, and other data. It also offers marketing features that allow us to advertise our content to targeted targets.

Pros

As a digital marketer, I am able to upload a big number of papers, maintain control over them, and distribute them quickly to salespeople and prospects. I also get information on which documents are being utilized, read, and interacted with. This is quite beneficial.

Cons

As far as I don't have any dislikes for this product, but it is a bit costly as per Indian Market.

Fills a need helping augment my efforts

Reviewed 10 months ago

Smooth experience where I got what was promised. Good folks to work with and turned into a true partnership of efforts rather than just transactional.

Pros

I like that it's a platform that can be turned on quickly to augment growth efforts. Works effectively to scale contributed content when you're time constrained at a fast moving company.

Cons

It does cost but it makes sense until you decide to bring the same services in house. There really aren't cons to Contently.

Great CMS to build complex content workflows

Reviewed a year ago

Contently allows us to easily and quickly produce great quality content without having the in-house resources or time to do it. The process is simple, easy to use and involved minimal training.

Pros

Worry less about whether this blog is good or that blog is good. Just write everyday and learn more about yourself and what you have to share with the world. We've had a great experience working with Contently so far. The platform is easy to use and intuitive, the communication has been good, and we're finding that we like the flexibility that Contently offers us as freelancers.

Cons

As per my Experience no cones even It would be helpful to our clients to know the return they’re getting on the creatives we create.

Making our Team look like Rock Stars!

Reviewed 4 years ago

Since launching Content Marketing into our organization, our Contently partners have been with us every step of the way. They are truly an extension of our internal team. We've gone from launching Content Marketing to Award Winning Content in less than 2 years. #ThankYouTeamContently!!

Pros

Contently's platform allows customized workflow systems for each of our lines of business (Because no two businesses are the same!). The platform is intuitive, easy to use, and offers access to top contributors / writers/ graphic designers, and real-time analytics by story and by publication. While the platform is incredible, their people are truly the SECRET SAUCE. Our account team is so responsive have been with us for every step of our Content Marketing Journey.

Cons

Tough call. The platform and our support team really DO make life easier! Anything we've identified as a need / want, is addressed in our weekly status meetings, and then built very quickly by their in-house engineers. No complaints!

Nothing else like it

Reviewed 2 years ago

We have two distinct teams that produce content: Marketing and Communications. And we have subject matter experts spread around the organization. We needed a single place where we could collaborate, track progress, and store content. In the 2+ years we've used Contently, we've seen the quality of our content and the visibility across our teams increase. We love our content strategist and managing editor, who often function as an extension of our team. They bring new topics and approaches to us, shepherd complex projects, and serve as a sounding board for our ideas.

Pros

Contently is a high-end, feature-packed platform. The network of writers and other talent is extensive and the workflows keep our projects moving forward. I love the integrated analysis that raises flags when we're straying from our brand voice or when we're not integrating our priority keywords.

Cons

Like any fully loaded product, it takes some practice to feel like you're taking advantage of everything in the platform. But if your team is ready to crank out content, you'll be pros in no time. I'd also like to see something like track changes when editing content. It's easy to comment, but making a change that all can see is not available.

Straightforward Insights From An Intuitive Platform

Reviewed 3 years ago

Our manager connected with a Contently rep at our annual conference and had us meeting for a demo about two years ago. Since then, we have been pleasantly thrilled with the ease of use and consistent growth of this platform.

Pros

Detailed analytics that allow our training team and marketing associates to dive depth in who accessing materials, where they are accessed, what kind of device, and so on has proven to be an immeasurable treasure for expanding our reach. Prior to using Contently, much of our analysis along these lines was carried out via surveys and interviews. Contently has significantly stepped up our game.

Cons

Google-like collaboration is always going to be my ask for any platform, but outside of the share capabilities, I have no complaints. Some of our departments have also started using Skyward, so our department must as well. Comparing to two, might bring more detail to light.

I highly recommend this to creators looking for the best and leading content-marketing platform. It is indeed known for its performance and you will love it.

Pros

The technical features provided by Contently are amazing. It helps to reach your clients easily with excellent marketing features. It is the most recommended platform for content creators.

Cons

Although it's a great tool for the marketing level, however, it's very difficult to maintain the membership. Apart from that, they can include a trial version so that the new users can take advantage and experience the technical features provided by Contently.

We have a few tools that are being evaluated for creating and distributing our internal messaging. Contently has really established itself as a leader for favorite. Very easy to use and easy to train.

Pros

Very clean interface and easy collaboration tools. We trade off a great deal of our development, and Contently has made that exchange easy.

Re-imagining Content Marketing - one Contently story at a time

Reviewed 4 years ago

Trying to establish ourselves as an industry through leader is difficult, especially with heavy competition. With platforms such as Contently, creating content for our blog helps set us up for success in this regard. Overall, the quality of content that Contently produces is high quality, and the service from the Account team are best in class.

Pros

Not only is Contently is a very user-friendly platform, but it provides access to a wealth of skillful writers who create engaging content for my target audiences, across multiple topics. Also, the dedicated account managers and editors assigned to my license are valuable partners. They bring valuable insight, support, and expertise to the table. I never feel alone in the process. They are considered trusted advisors who I can rely on!

Cons

Some of my analytics were mixed in with another team's data, so each month I spend a lot of time scrubbing and piecing my true data back together. There are a lot of functions and buttons to click on. If you don't use Contently platform often it takes a bit of re-training to remember how to navigate through the platform.

Very clean and useful format!

Reviewed 4 years ago

As stated above, I recently started using Contently, but so far my experience has been great. Once I've used it for longer, I'll come back and add any comments.

Pros

I just recently started using Contently, and one of the things I like the most is the docalytics feature. It provides very detailed information regarding when someone has looked at a specific document, the device in which they viewed the document, the duration it took the user to interact with the document, and even provides document mapping, knowing which parts of the user most interacted with!

Cons

Perhaps they can continue to refine the intuitiveness of the document analytics feature. It still has its caveats to work around but not a deal breaker.
