Storyblok, a pioneer in content management systems (CMS) for 2022 that enables both developers and content teams to create better experiences across all digital channels, announces the launch of its entirely new CMS. Storyblok V2 features a new user interface complete with a completely revamped design experience, collaboration tools, and an improved digital asset manager designed to enhance content workflows.
In Storyblok's The State of Content Management 2022 report, it was revealed that 47.96% of companies use 2 to 3 CMSs, and 47.08% said that 2 to 3 different teams use those CMSs. With V2, Storyblok once again demonstrates that it is a future-proof CMS that enhances content experiences at any scale.
Storyblok's versatile headless CMS architecture allows developers to build anything, publish anywhere, and integrate with any technology stack. Teams are able to independently create content with a visual editing experience, Google Docs-style collaboration suite, composable components, preference settings, and powerful publishing workflows. V2 now also supports a data center in the United States, giving Storyblok users additional hosting options in the US and Europe. All of this results in a scalable digital experience for the audience that offers fast performance, optimized omnichannel storytelling, and robust personalization and localization.
A Forrester report titled The Forrester Wave™: Agile Content Management Systems (CMSes), Q1 2021 states: "As organizations produce more experiences that leverage a common back end, the value of those services and assets increases relative to the costs of creating them. Brands struggle with the challenge of delivering content to new endpoints (e.g., web, mobile, smart displays, voice assistants, and marketplaces), so it is important to manage content and experiences centrally to encourage reuse. This also makes updating and analyzing - and optimizing - these experiences more efficient."
"We have been fortunate to get a front-row seat to the content operations of some of the world's leading companies," says Alexander Feiglstorfer, Co-Founder and CTO of Storyblok. "We built V2 because companies need flexibility and smarter workflows to adapt and scale to support the ever-increasing complexity of omnichannel digital experiences. Over the past year, we have been beta testing with our over 82,000 users and listening to their feedback. Now we are finally ready to show even more companies what content management should look like in the 21st century."
"We live in a world of connected channels and interfaces, and we expect modern digital experiences with every digital interaction. But most CMSs in use today were built at a time when only desktop web browsing existed," says Dominik Angerer, Co-Founder and CEO of Storyblok. "Many companies fail to manage their content across departments and are unable to deliver high-performing, personalized experiences at scale. It's time for companies to solve these challenges. Storyblok V2 is the content engine for every digital experience and helps companies tell their story on every channel."
On Thursday, August 4 at 11 AM Eastern / 5 PM CEST, Storyblok will hold a live V2 launch event featuring a demo of the new features and a panel discussion on the future of content experiences. Sign up here to attend this online event and see the full agenda.
