Kontent’s main differentiator to other headless CMS is the way it empowers business users. Kontent has the best-in-class authoring interface that supports things like simultaneous editing, autosaving, and real-time collaboration. The biggest game changes in the headless CMS market came with our launch of Web Spotlight, a unique add-on that combines in-context website management with a headless CMS’s flexibility and multi-channel support. Marketers love it because it breaks the paradigm of Headless CMS being a good fit only for technical people.
In an instance, INEOS had 24 hours to deliver a site communicating the company’s charitable endeavor and chose Kontent as the platform most suitable for this project. As a result, they were able to help thousands of hospitals and people worldwide in the fight against Covid-19. The team needed a single point of entry for all content requirements, and implementing Kontent allowed them to achieve that and easily create dedicated campaign landing pages. The MTM Agency also integrated Kontent with external services such as Stripe or SAP.
Today, in the headless CMS market, although numerous players are focusing on technical users only. Kontent believes there has to be a balance between the needs of both technical and non-technical (business) users of the CMS; hence they are investing in the experience of the business users—both on the product and services side. Alongside, the companies face many silos in their content creation process that lead to content duplication, content quality issues, loss of agility, and, ultimately, business users’ frustration. Kontent wants to eliminate those silos and help these companies be agile in content production. Shortly, Kontent wants to take this business user experience beyond just content creation and help users with content planning, international governance, auditing, and insights into content performance.
