Statamic Reviews

I love that in Statamic, everything is a file. It means setting up development, staging, and production environments is easy - no need to do database migrations which are always painful. Statamic is dead-simple to customize - the templates, the data structure, and the shape of the admin panel are all easy to tailor to your needs. It is also straightforward to optimize the performance of the websites.

As a developer - I like everything. I have encountered marketing managers who find the UI unfamiliar (with WordPress being the industry standard).

If you want to develop a custom website, Statamic is the way to go. It has a dead-simple admin interface. It is straightforward to configure and create websites using Statamic. Its built-in features make it easy to add modules like blogs or contact forms. It is also extensible enough that almost anything can be added to it through custom development or Statamic marketplace add-ons.

Statamic made it very easy to set up a highly custom company website. The documentation is so good that I was effective the next day. Since everything is a file, it can be version-controlled, which is very beneficial in terms of change management

The simplicity and clarity of the Statamic interface are what stand out for me. I like that it is so easy to use, without clutter (although it is extensible if you want to add extra features). I also find that I have fewer front-end code glitches compared to WordPress, requiring less intervention.

The website for which I am using Statamic is fairly simple, so I am not sure how well the application would scale to larger, more complex sites.

We are using Statamic for a residential community blog providing news and updates to members. It is easy for novice users to get to grips with the tool and to be posting and editing content, editing taxonomies etc very quickly.
