Storyblok at Cube for flexible content management.
Manage content without any technical hurdles.
Storyblok is a CMS that allows organizations to manage the content of their website, platform, or online store. You build pages using individual content blocks that you can customize, move, and reuse. This allows content teams to work faster on their own, without needing to involve development for every change. Storyblok is a headless CMS. This means that content management is separate from the front end of the website or platform. As a result, the same content can be used in multiple places, such as on a website, in an app, or within a digital platform. The visual editor makes Storyblok practical to use. As you edit, you can immediately see how a page will look. This gives marketers and content managers more control over the content, while developers retain the freedom to properly configure the underlying technology.
Why choose a headless CMS?
Create content once.
With a headless CMS, you can manage your content from a single central location. You can then use that same content on your website, in an app, in an online store, or on any other digital platform. This helps you avoid duplicating work and ensures that your content remains consistent across all platforms.
Freedom in technology and design.
The content is separate from the front end of your website or platform. This means you aren't limited to fixed templates or standard solutions. Developers can build the technology and design in a way that suits your organization.
Growing alongside your business.
Are you adding an additional language, brand, channel, or platform? Then you don't have to start from scratch. You can continue building on the same content structure, allowing the CMS to grow along with your organization's needs.
Publish faster.
Content teams and developers are better off working side by side. While developers are building the technical infrastructure, content teams can start filling and editing pages. This shortens the path from idea to publication.
What makes Storyblok different from a traditional CMS.
Traditional CMSs are often designed around a single website and fixed templates. That works fine as long as the content is used only there, but it becomes limiting as soon as you want to display the same content in other places. Storyblok takes a different approach. Content and design are separate, allowing you to manage content centrally and use it on a website, online store, app, or other digital platform. At the same time, management remains accessible. With the visual editor, content managers and marketers can immediately see what they’re editing, while developers retain the freedom to customize the technical setup. Because Storyblok is a cloud service, updates and maintenance are handled automatically.
Examples of applications within organizations.
Storyblok is best suited for organizations that want to manage their content across multiple locations or in multiple languages. Here are a few situations where a headless CMS like Storyblok is a good fit:
A website and app from a single content source: You manage text, images, and blocks in one place and display them on both your website and in your app. You only need to make a change once.
Multiple languages or countries from a single platform: Organizations that operate internationally manage different languages and country versions from a single CMS. This allows you to maintain control over your content and tailor it to each market as needed.
Custom websites and digital platforms: For a platform with specific front-end requirements, a headless CMS provides the flexibility to build custom technology and design, while keeping content management simple.
An online store with a lot of editorial content: in addition to products, you often want to manage stories, campaigns, and landing pages. With a visual editor, your marketing team can put these together on their own, without having to rely on a developer every time.
Storyblok as part of Cube's custom solutions.
Storyblok is a great fit for custom solutions where content needs to remain easy to manage. Content teams can update pages, campaigns, and languages themselves, while we develop a fully customized front end. Because content and technology are separate, at Cube we integrate Storyblok directly with your existing systems (such as product data, a CRM, or other data sources) without any detours. We build these integrations so that content is managed in one place and automatically delivered where it’s needed. This way, the CMS isn’t a standalone component, but rather a management layer within your larger platform. Whether Storyblok is the right choice depends on your goals, your team, and your digital environment. That’s why we first assess the solution’s requirements and then select the CMS that best fits those needs.
