Headless CMS

---

We have extensive experience in migrating from legacy, monolith CMS systems to modern headless CMS solutions like Contentul, ContentStack, StoryBlok, Sanity, and Strapi. Our experts are happy to review your current CMS limitations and content models. We consult on how to adapt business processes and content models to achieve higher efficiency. We help customers choose the right headless CMS for their specific business needs. We aim to automate the content migration process and reuse as much existing content as possible. 

We advise and help enterprises to optimize both their content management processes and tools. Using several different CMS systems within an organization can lead to process misalignments, different look and feel for customers, and additional license costs. We have extensive experience moving and optimizing content and experiences from several different CMSs into one headless CMS.

Any enterprise CMS needs to integrate with many legacy backend systems that contain data to be displayed on the Web. We help clients integrate 3rd party systems in an efficient and maintainable way. In a headless CMS setup, we develop microservices and middle layers that allow for highly performant integrations close to the frontend.

WYSIWYG editing used to be possible only with monolith CMS systems. However, recent developments of headless CMSs like Contentul and StoryBlok enable visual editing. Visual editing enables editors to create and edit content with an in-context preview, including the possibility to click on a component and edit its content in a preview sidekick.

Every enterprise has specific business requirements that require some UI customizations for editors. Most headless CMSs allow the development of custom UI components and plugins. We are experienced in developing customizations for enhancing the editorial experience and integrating third-party data in the editorial interface.

A headless CMS needs a frontend application to deliver the experiences. We advise clients on the state-of-the-art frontend approach considering the headless CMS choice and site-specific requirements. Our frontend teams are experienced in developing highly performant, statically generated sites, SPAs, and micro-frontends in React/Next.js, Angular, and Vue/Nuxt.

Most online businesses, especially those doing B2C commerce care deeply about mobile performance and search-engine optimization (SEO). We offer implementations of static site generation solutions for pre-generating as much content as possible. Delivering pre-generated content directly from CDN achieves maximum performance and SEO. Only truly dynamic and personalized components need to be rendered client-side.

A middle layer is usually an API Gateway or a Backend for Frontend solution, depending on the number of different frontend requirements. Decoupling all backend systems, including CMS, is a must-have in a truly headless architecture. Putting a gateway between frontend and backend ensures API stability, facilitates frontend development, and helps avoid vendor lock-in.
