"User-friendly interface"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

I came into my new position as a Website and Analytics Officer without prior experience using Agility CMS. The learning process was very smooth for me given how easy and straight-forward the platform is. I love the ability to preview pages before publishing them and being able to share these drafts with stakeholders without affecting the content that is currently live on the website. I appreciate being able to see who in my team has made changes because it facilitates team work.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

I dislike the bugs of constantly having to publish every single item so a change is seen on the website. I also dislike being asked if I want to save any changes when I haven't made a single change to a module. I also wish I had the ability to preview previous versions of a page instead of just being able to see what modules it contained.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's helping me collaborate better with my team. I love the fact that changes can be seen live right away. It also helps with proof-reading content when you don't have to publish a page to see what it will look like.

It would be great to have another instance available.

"CMS without your own infrastructure, and it works great"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

I like the simplicity. You create an account, connect it to GatsbyJS and it works. Agility CMS + GatjsbyJS + GitHub = ideal workflow

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

I dislike the pricing. ALmost $500 per month is a lot! I'd like to give an instance per client per project, but the price is just too much for small websites.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Some clients need the ability to customize texts on websites or news, or images - smile CMS. This can be easily solved with Agility CMS

"Generally I like the system. It's easy to use."
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

I like that Agility is always ready to help and users can use slack or service desk. I like the UI mostly. I like that everything is configurable and there are so many possibilities to build any kind of structure.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

Sometimes there are bugs that are so uncomfortable, but I understand that it's very normal. Every system has bugs)) I had some inconvenience with the new UI, I don't like how I can switch the instances. - https://help.agilitycms.com/hc/en-us/requests/58335 Also, maybe I don't know the system very well and that's why I have this thought in my mind, but I'll write anyway: I would prefer to improve user management, roles and permissions. Also, the backup possibility will be a very advanced feature, because clients will always be frightened about it )) I noticed that there is no some "delete" history and I described it in this ticket - https://help.agilitycms.com/hc/en-us/requests/58264 And one more great suggestion will be GEO restrictions -https://help.agilitycms.com/hc/en-us/requests/58158

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

From time to time I'm learning the system and I discover so many good features. I'm improving my structure and can't wait to have a new project to set up a more easy and better structure for it. For this time it covers 90% of clients' requirements, and I'm very glad about it. I say one more time that I like the way how it is configurable. You can build any kind of structure.

"Agility CMS: "Reliable, Quick and developer friendly headless CMS"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

The best part is the product is a headless content management platform designed to make it fast and easy to build, manage, and maintain the content, wherever it needs to be. Being also a Cloud-based CMS that is Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) in a multi-tenant architecture enables users to create, customize, and manage websites, apps, eCommerce, and ticketing solutions from a central hub to deliver compelling experiences both on the front end and the back. Easy Setup and great content fetch API for headless CMS.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

The simplification of uploading files would be ideal - where all files are located in the Media & Documents section rather than uploaded directly to Shared Content modules. It is better to copy/paste handling of content from external programs (cleaning Word document formatting, etc.), similar to handling by WordPress and other simplified CMS would be helpful. They also need to improve on global content such as headers/footers, multi-language implementation, etc., would allow our developers more flexibility and reduce our time coordinating with Agility support and using BOH.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used Agility CMS for content management. As this is cloud-based so no need to bother about deployment charges and the worries of maintaining servers. It also helps in faster development. The site becomes secured and also has roles-based access. Also, it has SEO features and great forms to get started.

"Easy Interface"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

The Agility CMS is a simple tool that can be learned quickly. I use it to manage our department's intranet pages. I like the tools and features it offers to quickly build web pages. It also allows you to add headlines and helpful links at the bottom of each page, which are nice tools.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

I wish it were easier to link to a bookmark on the same page instead of adding the #bookmark to the end of the URL manually. I don't think this is intuitive and would prefer the "link" button allow the option to link to a bookmark as well as a file.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using it to get my job done!

"Agility: The best instrument to manage your website."
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Agility CMS is easy to use. It's not difficult to complete simple tasks like posting a blog or changing the content of a page. Everything is organized and labeled so you can find things quickly and easily. The interface requires for little or no coding knowledge in order to have the website up and running. Also, customer service is usually immediate and much attention to detail is given. Agility allows me to store files and have secure links to them, and redirections to other websites are easily made.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

There are limitations to the platform, like anything out there, I find that Agility doesn't allow for the user to have much control over the appearance of the website aside from the initial set-up. There is also a delay when you replace, delete or update files.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Agility has made creating and running my website easier, and I can manage it wherever I go without it being too stressful.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

I think the price should not be so high, it is not accessible to all users.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it to manage the website of the company with my group, I update and upload images to the platform.

"Content Management Bliss"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

We have over 1,200 pages of content and we're constantly producing more. Agility's platform allows us to easily maintain and publish massive amounts of information with ease. The global features and internal search make it possible to manage and update content on the fly.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

System behavior is not as stable as I would like. Previewing dynamic content in staging is a pain. Quirkiness in content naming (ie.page names with certain characters just don't publish). User support often slow having to peel back many layers before getting issues resolved

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Massive amounts of content that need to be continually maintained and updated regularly by a team of users with light technical backgrounds

"Agility: The CMS to make your dreams come true"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Agility is pretty easy to use. You don't need a lot of training to complete simple task like updating a page fo your site or posting a blog, it's interface compiles everything you need to manage your website organized and easy to find. It requires little coding knowledge in order to have the website up and running. It has useful prebuilt tools that you can use and customize to do what you want to do with your content and the schedule function even in the little components is a game changer for me.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

Apart from the initial setup, it does not give you much control about the appearance of your web, if you want to make major changes you have to request them to be made causing delays and major fees, sometimes there are components that are hard to update or publish.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing my clients website, updating content and using the media and files functionality for mailings and other stuff.

"Website Management Has Never Been Easier"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Agility compiles pretty much everything you need to fully manage a website in one place, I love the tools it has already available like tabbed links because it makes creating new pages for my web faster. I also love the files system and the simple way it lets you organize and update documents, pictures, among others. Also the way every section is connected to others is great.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

I honestly think the main problem with agility is that is kind of expensive, we tried to get another user to help us manage the website and in the company they told us it was not possible because it was too expensive. Apart from that I think sometimes it is hard to update certain sections.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm managing a full website and also using it's links (from the media section) in my mailings, it is so helpful in that regard because I can keep things organized in folders.

"Agility: A fantastic tool to manage my website."
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

Agility compiles all the necessary tools to manage my website easily and in one place. It allows me to create different templates to manage all sections of my website without compromising my creativity and ideas. Also, it allows me to store my files and have secure links to them, and redirections to foreign web pages or other pages of my own site are easily made. Overall, this tool is amazing if you want to build a solid and appealing web page.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

There is a delay when replacing files, and sometimes there are difficulties when updating and deleting some of the basic features like tabbed links. In addition there should be an option that allows you to clone a web page several times and not just one at a time.

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has made creating and editing my web page easier, letting me focus on other crucial things on my company. Agility has helped me to better manage my site no matter where I go.

"Tree creation for pages"
What do you like best about Agility CMS?

It has a good paging tool, allows us to sort correctly on all pages. In addition, it creates folders for both media and files. Also, it helps us in what is redirection for pages that we do not need to use. A correct use of SEO.

What do you dislike about Agility CMS?

When you update images or files, at times you have a high level of time to update the pages when using your URL. Its graphic interface should be more pleasant for a basic user. You can not do backend programming to customize your functionalities or service queries

What problems is Agility CMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

264/5000 I am seeing what is the management of visualization pages about information provided by the company and services that they also give us. The benefits are that I can manage my pages in an orderly manner and improve my SEO in addition to allowing me to store files.

AgilityCMS could use better documentation of it's API and CMS interface to make it easier for self-service problem solving of development and content management questions. Also AgilityCMS needs to foster a community and online resource where people who work with their tools can help one another and share solutions.
