Summary

The Forrester Wave report highlights the importance of collaboration between digital content editors and developers in building agile content management systems (CMSes). It praises Contentful as a Strong Performer, citing its microservices-based, API-first, cloud-native SaaS and headless architecture. This MACH-enabled technology enables companies to innovate and launch new experiences swiftly, while also empowering content authors with the power to create and manage structured content independently of developers. The report emphasizes the need for agile CMS platforms that can deliver personalized omnichannel experiences at scale, and Contentful's capabilities in this area are particularly noteworthy. Additionally, the release of Compose and Launch apps enhances the content creation and delivery experience, providing a more intuitive and user-friendly interface for non-technical users and enabling teams to work together seamlessly. The report concludes that Contentful improves collaboration between content editors and developers, giving them free will to do what they do best while de-risking changes to the backend.
