Prismic Reviews & Product Details

It's free to get started, and even when you have more users the plans are pretty cheap. It's always quick in production and provides a really flexible and powerful solution to manage all of our content.

Organisation of documents is a bit tricky, and our repo has turned into a bit of a mess because the lack of file structuring options in the platform. The search feature is not ideal, and finding images and other assets is challenging if they weren't uploaded recently. It would really benefit from structuring documents and files better in the UI.

We have a lot of content in our product, and it's not developers who are writing it. Prismic allows us to host our content separately from our code, giving our content writers the flexibility to edit and write content whenever they want even if developers are busy.

Schema creation, 100x easier than expected, actually enjoyable to use slice machine is a clever way to handle inserting content blocks publishing in named releases looks very useful preview functionality is great pretty good documentation Good editor experience while editing a piece of content excellent free tier limits

No write API No mobile version of CMS (this wouldn’t be a problem if there was a write API) Not enough variation with each content block. If you want a block with say, text on the left and an image on the right. And you want a version with it flipped, that’s a whole other slice. For the fairly minimal content needs of my site I guessed I needed like 15 separate slices to handle what was like 6 unique content blocks with a slight variations. Dashboard experience for managing pages isn’t always great Creating tags and categories is clunky, if you need to insert a new category for products, you have to add the category before you edit the edit product Integration with imgix is largely undocumented, or at least not nearly enough. I was having to dig through old forum posts or imgix documentation to figure out what my query strings needed to be Authentication process does not work on gitpod (not without an annoying amount of manual work every single time)

Allowed me to design custom schemas, have a somewhat visual ACF-style block-based editor in slices, would integrate with my workflow of publishing to netlify, could handle both content pages, products and really anything.

Its interface is minimalist and simple: it's focused on content management, and users aren't lost with a multitude of options. It's up to the developer whether or not to allow content modification. We are using it a lot. The Prismic team (customer support) is listening to feedback to make future versions even better.

The interface could be improved though, with new features. Implementation / integration not really easy in some particular cases.

Be more flexible than Wordpress, for example

Easy and intuitive to use slice-machine great idea very well suited for simple websites

Prismic team don 't listen to prismic developer and it's very frustrating. semantic tags support is critical within richtext . adding folder structure within prismic media limitations are very frustrating especially against other headless cms , example strapi, sanity: no role permission, no backup for free plan, no crud,, also I scratch my head about what page builder builder bring to the table..

a centrilized place where i store my data

The functionality that allows business users to reuse components - once build by the engineers, this means we are free to build what we need.

The media library is awful, this would be once reason to change platform because of how bad this is.

Good for building components and features to allow business users to be free of engineering support, however limited ability to scale and a terrible media library

Flexibility - we have a unique ecommerce offering with a complex product > add to cart funnel and have managed to scale a significant number of unique journeys through content management.

Asset search capability could be better. It's hard to find and reuse assets through the search feature.

We have a unique ecommerce 'middle' funnel, where products can be highly personalised. Most of our products have different types of personalisation. In order to scale more journeys across the site, prismic has afforded some flexibility.

The integration was quick and low in effort. The drag and drop functionality is very easy to use and understand.

The image library and lacking ability to split projects into separate groups

We were looking for a low cost low maintenance CMS that enabled us to quickly launch content for our webshop and other Marketing related content pages, Prismic was the right tool for it.

Cloud service of managing the content and users management. No need to worry about the storage cost of the assets. Deployment slots kind of environments and easy for swapping

It is a bit costly when compared to the other CMS providers. Lack of study material and best practices for beginners to dive in. Merging the environments needs to be simplified

Like the service they are offering, of course managing all the assets, contents, releases, feature flags, users management everything in the cloud. Benefits we are getting is the site build time is drastically reduced after we migrated to Prismic with gatsby.

Prismic has helped us craft unique content sitewide, powered by our content team and not developers. Being able to use prismic for wiki data, blog posts, FAQs, terms/privacy policies, marketing pages, etc has been a huge benefit to our team. Being able to create content types, with custom fields organized how I need them, has been a huge reason I've stuck with Prismic.

The strong nature of resistance I've received from support when discussing issues with them. Seem often to brush us off, instead of work with us to solve problems. The entire way media is handled is frustrating. Being able to upload, browse media, and assign meta details to each item... and then using it in a post is fantastic. But if you make changes to the item after using it, it doesn't propagate. Same with thumbnails, if you add a new page/style/design to your site, you need to manually go to each and every post and reapply the image, to generate a new round of thumbnails. It's incredibly tedious, and support has offered no better way insisting that is the option.

Giving our marketing/content full controller of what they're creating, and when they're creating it has been vital. We've created custom inserts in Prismic Slices, that build as our own vue components in the blog post. They have a ton of control on how they build their posts.

The original product design was fantastic - a headless CMS that is platform agnostic and importantly does not serialise content as HTML but structured JSON objects. The API is performant and the writing room is a pleasant experience for content writers. Integration is pretty painless and it is still my go-to CMS. Media assets served from a CDN is great feature, and generally, customer support is reasonably responsive via in-app chat.

Prismic have effectively abanonded users that don't write everything in Javascript. All of the new and interesting features are effectively not available without using specific JS based frontend/backend technologies and the focus on JS increases to the point where other technologies are no longer even mentioned in documentation. Simple features such as a feasible way of representing tabular content, or linking to in-page anchors have gone ignored for years in the quest for ever more javascript bells and whistles and integration with the latest hot framework.

- Robust, reliable and performant headless CMS - Global CDN for assets - Single content source, multiple clients - Re-purposing content for multiple outputs - Releases for batch updates - Scheduling content releases

The ease of use, don't need to be a developer to use the CMS

They recently did updates to make it more drag-and-drop focused. But it makes it very hard to restructure pages with many elements or to move them between sections. Also, with this update to the editor when you add images there is no search feature, which means if I need an older image it's near impossible to find and I would need to upload it again causing a duplicate in the system which is bad for SEO. I figured out how to revert back to the old editor, but it's not because I prefer what I know but instead because the new update has terrible UX for my specific needs.

It created our website and houses our images and website code

platform looks nice and there are a lot of available components and duplication is useful

search function is terrible and blog posts take 2 days to publish

allows us to have multiple landing pages etc for different purposes

For the longest period, Prismic was a really affordable CMS solution, especially for products that require support for a lot of different languages. Their approach to flexible page building via "slices" was brilliant and for a very long period a key differentiator. Less so now that a lot of other CMS offer similar flexibility.

We have a complex websitewith advanced needs. The limitations of Prismic API made the job of our engineers complicated and forced us to do a lot of workarounds. Some basic elements such as field validation, the ability to add inline instructions for content-writers, or the ability to search for an article by its title (the search function is completely broken since years). The last straw was how Prismic manage their loyal customers, announcing a 20x increase in traffic with a very short notice (less than a month at first, extended to 2.5 month after some negotiation).

Prismic is powering our content website, with tens of thousands of different pages across 10 languages.

One of my favorite things about Prismic is that I can quickly edit content that has already been published and not have to rely on my dev teams to make it live.

There isn't anything that I dislike about prismic.

Prismic is solving our need behind having a tool to process content editing without the input or bandwidth of developers. It benefits me by being able to quickly edit and create pages without having to use precious time from other teams.

It's flexible and easy to use, implement, and keep up to date. I have a couple of prismic-backed websites that were easy to set up and bring in my style. I'm currently using it to build a portfolio.

Sometimes it can get a bit confusing but reading the docs helps a lot.

I haven't tried any other CMS to compare but, Prismic is fun to use. I love the user interface and I love that I don't have to build a database from scratch when I'm building my website. I'm a strictly frontend developer and Prismic solves the backend part for me.

Easy to use, very functional and great for anyone.

Some useful features are missing. I would like to see updates happen in real time.

Allows for owners to be in control and has proven to be beneficial.

Prismic allows from Clients to keep up a specific brand image while also allowing for ease of change and update in their websites, without needing third-party (coding/backend) intervention often .

Depending on the user's previous experience, the learning curve of Prismic can be quite steep, especially for those who are not as technically savvy.

Prismic has helped: - Create a consitent brand image - Reduce the number of content side errors - allow for ease of updating the website

Its simplicity, as well as its clean, modern UI. Prismic's ease of configuration allows for the developer to spend more time on the application--as a front end developer, I love that Prismic gives me more time to work on animations because it is so easy and quick to set up. I don't spend as much time configuring settings in order to store content. In addition, Prismic's UI is unique, yet intuitive and clean. So many CMSs look the same (Strapi, Craft, WordPress), the dashboard is nice change of scenery.

Honestly, I prefer the legacy UI more than the new designs (sorry). I also wish Prismic would allow POST requests to input data directly into the CMS, which be nice for contact forms.

It's a reasonably priced CMS that allows customers to manage their website content with a pleasant experience.

Intuitive, simple, friendly, easy to teach my colleagues

preview functioanlity isn't there, would like to see my page on different devices before publishing.

the need to have images and words together on a CMS

It is a very clean and convenient UX. Prismic has excellent navigation; you can quickly learn how to upload content and create new pages even if you need to gain knowledge. It is very suitable for small teams where you need to share content creation. It has several features for page creation, page design, and basic templates.

I don't have a specific topic; maybe there is no prominent system for uploading large images and videos.

It helps companies create and publish content, landing pages, and blogs. It is Working well for SEO optimization. Prismic helps small and medium companies create a proper blog and web user experience.
