User Testimonials
	Contentful	Duda
Likelihood to Recommend	Coming from WordPress, Contentful feels like content management as it should be. There's no clutter to get rid of, you can simply start building from scratch, and the end product is perfectly tailored to your or your clients needs. Incentivized Andrew Folts Digital Strategist Read full review	Duda is great for small to medium sized websites building, where some level of animation is ok and mostly for presenting online information, and its SEO performance is very good then. But for very large or heavily interactive websites it may not be the best choice. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Contentful provides organized, flexible data models with support for a variety of data types and content editors (e.g. WYSIWYGs, form fields, raw text areas). Contentful has great built-in versioning features with history and draft states so it's easy to make updates and revert when needed. Contentful has an intuitive user interface and good support for multiple spaces (which can be helpful for companies that need separate projects for dev/staging/production). Incentivized EM Eric Mason Lead Developer Read full review	Ongoing Education for agencies and users. Anton has done what he does best and turned Duda into a go-to-source for information, ideas, and practical implementation. UX - The ability to create simple yet highly customizable sites. Speed - Sites take much less time to build and maintain, allowing agencies to scale and business owners to spend more time on growing their core revenue channels. Reliability - From technical reliability, reduced down-time to support, Duda is a reliability option. Alicia Gonzalez CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review
Cons	Preview of changes prior to publishing The ability to use a spell check plug-in when working on content (it doesn't work well with Grammarly) Incentivized Nathaly Sierra Marketing Coordinator for FirstService Realty NYC Read full review	Ecommerce can use some improvement--but this should be taken care of in 2023 A more robust app marketplace More custom widgets Nat G. Rosasco Principal Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Upon using the builder for the first time, I found Duda to be extremely intuitive and easy to figure out, but also has a high skill-ceiling. After 5 years of building in the drag-and-drop builder, I continue to teach myself new tricks and methods to continually improve my process and design capabilities within the platform. I've built dozens of Duda sites and each one is better than the last. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Contentful was affordable and much simpler than the Java based systems and preferred over a PHP solution Incentivized Jennifer Garcia Web Marketing Manager Read full review	Duda lets me customize the entire page. With Squarespace, many of the templates were limiting on editing the header and footer. Also in the past, I couldn't change the page title and page header to be different in Squarespace. This was not good for SEO. Wix is good but also a little bulky and glitchy. Incentivized Sarah Hokuf Owner Read full review
Return on Investment	There was no negative impact as such. Positive impact is increase in sales. More work is delivered due to reusability and other features within a time and less manual effort. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Duda has allowed our team to function quicker Duda has allowed us to have more clients Our clients are happier with their sites now Incentivized NP Nicholas Parker Project Manager Read full review
