Zesty is such a simple tool to use in creating a CMS website. I met with a colleague for an intro, got an account to experiment with, and built two whole site concepts within two weeks! The Parsley code used is straightforward to understand, and there are some excellent documentation and youtube videos to learn if required. I started with a completely blank structure, and then added my own SCSS and JS and being able to organise and code in the browser was super helpful and fast.
It would be beneficial if zesty had a way of creating pages and schemas using the layouts tool. The layouts tool is okay to reorganise content, but it would be great if you could add more fields and layout it out in one place instead of adding it to the schema and coming back. I did not use the layouts plugin in the end because it did not really help me. A future addition would be duplicating fields in a layout tool and rearranging them.
Zesty gives an easy-to-use and fairly powerful CMS system that does not cost the earth. It is easy to use from a content editor's point of view, and also any level of developer could use this reasonably easily.
I can easily update my website without having to involve our web developer. Our old feedback loop from engineering to marketing now seems antiquated.
Recent features like previewing content live and multiple tabs have fixed what I used to dislike. They seem to always introduce new functionality.
Having an all-in-one solution so I don't have to worry about hosting and delivery at scale. Marketing ideation to delivery timeline drastically reduced.

Zesty is an excellent alternative to other CMS platforms we've had significant experience implementing on both the low-end side, such as Wordpress and Hubspot, and the higher-end side, like Sitecore and AEM. We've implemented Zesty solutions for a good number of clients ranging from startup to enterprise. Some of the things we like best about Zesty are their top-tier support, easy-to-use interfaces for both business and technical users, and their ability to keep the platform as modern as possible with very little legacy baggage.
There's not much to dislike about Zesty, but as with many tech products, your success comes from how well you know the platform - how to take advantage of it and how to avoid the pitfalls. To implement challenging projects, developers will need good knowledge of the platform to implement efficient code, so you shouldn't expect an inexperienced developer to succeed right out of the gate without spending the time to learn the platform.
The Zesty platform solves problems on both the business side with its easy to use interface as well as the tech side, where we can take advantage of the continually growing tools and platform enhancements.
I love that the Zesty platform was so easy to use. I am not a coder or developer and it made it so easy to start my website
There was a little learning curve at first, but once the Zesty staff helped me to learn their platform, it was a breeze.
Zesty helped me to start my blog website. The content manager made it easy to customize my website however I wanted it
I love using it for my everyday things,it's so good for marketing.I can do things that other web pages can't.
I like everything about it.Although there could be more blueprints added
I have created some websites on there and the blueprints make it all the better,sometimes it takes a while to load but I just wait patiently
I love the team most of all, they are incredibly responsive and seek input on features. They are quick to make fixes and push updates to meet customer needs.
Zesty could be a great option for small, budget sites. But their pricing is targeted at enterprise and mid-tier clients. It's hard to choose for a budget-strapped startup that could benefit from it, they'd rather use something that's open source.
We use Zesty to make complex content management simple for enterprise customers with complex content marketing strategies
While the cost is a little more - it is so worth it. I never have to do software or database updates. I never have to worry that my site is down. The speed of page delivery beats every single configuration you can hope to do with WordPress. Zesty is worth every penny!
Some of the Media organization is a little quirky. That is really the only negative...
We needed a reliable CMS for our corporate website, and I didn't want to update software constantly.
It is an excellent multi-channel content management system (CMS). It processes and manages content for different platforms and distribute them across many apps, websites, and other devices.

There were durations where updates and brand-new functions weren't included as typically as I would have liked. The software application constantly progressed successfully.
Appears to be working well and easy for customers to browse. It is a lot simpler to direct a client to utilize the site than to discuss the item to them.
It is very easy to add or remove content and edit the website.
I somehow am not a fan of using google to access the site.
It is so much easier to direct a customer to use the website than to explain the product to them.
Zesty is very useful, it's a headless CMS very easy to understand and to optimize for SEO purposes
Sometimes we get issues in things that should be simple, like, if you don't pay attention, you may publish a landing page in a different language. The tool could inform you if you are sure you are in the correct language.
Zesty is helping us build new landing pages faster and ensure that all is well optimized for SEO.
I like that its easy to locate whatever I want to change very quickly and labeled (and a search function) it makes doing quick changes for multiple locations very easy.
When I have an external display set up, when using the preview mode in full screen it causes the external display to crash, it takes forever to reboot. Essentialy it doesnt work in full screen which isnt that major but its annoying.
Website management, I only have to make quick edits and all the big stuff is handled by Zesty.
Custom JSON endpoints allow devs to massage content created by business. Devs can control initial schema creation and then hand off to business to create content. Node SDK available to automate lots of things.
The UI could be improved. No ability to mass publish from the UI. Search functionality could be improved. There is extra work initially to get things set up and sometimes using zesty does not add any value if content remains rather static.
Business now has the ability to update verbiage and other content without needing engineers to create a new build of the application. We can also add and remove some simple logic cases like adding/removing certain zip codes from a campaign for example all without needing to do a new build.
The ability to see SEO insights and publish and post content! Overall, editing the content and such as the blog features is a significant selling point. Overall, Zesty is a great product.
I have some issues with editing the blog content and having the formatting show up on the website as formatted in the platform. Another issue is just the times of the meetings since there is an 11-hour difference based on geography.
I believe the problems being solved with Zesty are the blog content and landing page edits. Overall, everything works really well and is a smooth transition for me.

Zesty.io is very pricy when compared to its competitors. The more features you need the more costly it gets. It has no free trials and just provides a free demo. It has no support for e-forms. It also does not have a built in image editor thus you cannot complete all your work on a single platform. It does not provide version control via GitHub either.
Zesty.io provides implementation teams with features and tools to make them more collaborative, efficient, and productive. It allows them to manage all clients from one portal and develop web properties faster. It also provides storage to its users as well. Its customer support is also very robust and efficient.
I like seeing numbers and this tools allows me to see either general or specific numbers with a neat way and clear graphs. For example, the with the Page and Pageviews you get percentages for new visitors, bounce rate, duration, region, and more. And if I ever forget what one option might be, it even has a small description of each to refresh my mind. I really feel how thoughtful they were in getting thins easy for users.
Giving up GIT has been the hardest adjustment since moving to Zesty, I can't branch existing code into long term and short term projects. But I've been asking for it and it looks like the feature is in the works and coming soon.
We are without dedicated marketing site developers and this product is so easy to use we have yet to have a problem maintaining, updating, and managing it as needed. We've made several changes since implementation and they've all been seamless and easy.
The UI is pretty friendly, easy to navigate and 90% is done through wysiwyg
The newest update to the dash doesn't auto-pin the tabs you're working on.
They provide great support to our team if we have any questions about more complex issues
