Headless CMS: Blackbit partners with Austrian provider Storyblok

Thanks to its ease of use, the headless CMS Storyblok promises enormous increases in efficiency in content management and multi-channel e-commerce. At the same time, the CMS is highly customisable and expandable. The Austrian company Storyblock has been on the market since 2015, is financed with over 50 million dollars and is already considered a global software player thanks to its broad success. With an average rating of 4.6 stars on gartner.com and a recommendation rate of 88%, Storyblok is far ahead of other headless content management systems internationally. This is primarily due to the advantages that the CMS cleverly combines. But what makes the headless CMS so strong?

Storyblok: Headless CMS meets user-friendliness

The strength of modern headless solutions like Storyblok lies in its flexible structures. As a cloud-based headless CMS, it offers numerous technical advantages over traditional content management systems that have to be run on expensive and complex-to-maintain proprietary servers

With the Storyblok headless content solution, you can manage your digital assets in the front end for every conceivable application context. Whether it's corporate websites, e-commerce platforms, user-friendly helpdesks or apps optimised for mobile use and various end devices: with Storyblok, you accelerate the distribution of your content across various digital channels

Headless CMS with Visual Editor

Storyblok also solves the challenge that users of headless content management systems often face: Working with digital content in a headless environment is difficult, small-scale and error-prone because there is no visual preview function in the backend of the system. Especially in multi-channel marketing across different channels, this can lead to immense extra work in content distribution.
But Storyblok, thanks to the integrated user-friendly visual editor, offers the user-friendliness of a page builder and combines this with a modern headless architecture
