Easy to collaborate with designers and engineers.
Doesn't work well with apps like grammarly.
Easy to create content without having coding experience or working inside the HTML to add tags etc
Visually appealing. Recently went through a UI redesign.
None that I see as a non-power user. I use it exclusively to post events to our website, and it functions perfectly for this task.
I use this tool to add events and event links to our corporate website.
I think it's a very intuitive tool, I've been able to use it for some months now and I never really looked into the tutorial. There's a wide arrange of features to implement different types of content on pages without the need to know HTML etc, but I also think it lacks some autonomy for the user in that department. For example, the "feature card" feature could have an option for choosing who to display text-picture: side by side or picture on the top and text below.
The redesign that rolled out this year increased the size of page elements in the editor and, consequently, they now occupy bigger chunks of screen, making it difficult to use Content Stack in PCs with smaller displays. I believe the previous layout was more effective in that sense. Plus, there's a pretty annoying bug when I try to expand the info uon some card when editing pages. I always need to press the down arrow twice in order to open the cards.
It's a pretty straightforward service so it helps to decrease the time spent on training new employees. In that term, it's great to impolement it in big teams because anybody can use it effortlessly, without the need to make long trainings.
