Why do we love working with Dentsu Creative?
The agency is aware of changing market trends and the diversity of today's digital world. They see companies' diversified cultures, values, languages, and project launch habits as challenging and exciting. Moreover, Dentsu Creative believes that every contact moment with a brand is one where they can make a difference.
That's why the agency doesn't just specialize in brand positioning, identity design, and integrated campaigns. They also value experience, innovation, entertainment, and social media innovative approaches. This broad view of the digital landscape enables them to produce distinctive creations that resonate with the global cultural dialogue.
Storyblok: Dentsu Creative’s CMS of choice
Dentsu Creative believes in focusing on quick content creation and publishing. That's why they've noticed a high demand for flexibility and scalability. After experimenting with other CMSs, like Prismic, the agency realized Storyblok was the best fit. The CMS perfectly fits their ambitions and their clients' needs.
Making a good digital journey for a customer means making a good experience for the end user and the developer, designer, author, project manager, etc. Storyblok is the best of both worlds: Painless to build and painless to edit.
Let's look closely at Serge's thoughts about Storyblok. Why exactly does he love using the CMS?
- Painless to build:
The way components in Storyblok map to components in React, Vue, or others makes it very simple to work with. It doesn't create abstract metaphors or models like other CMSs they used. - Painless to edit:
This means the agency can build any project they imagine, yet any of their clients can seamlessly and flexibly edit it with very little instruction.
Storyblok has also changed how Dentsu Creative tells their tech approach to clients. The agency always starts with the user experience and the brand perspective. In the past, using other CMSs, it was often a struggle for them and their clients to make this happen. But now, with Storyblok, they can move forward with their projects faster, easier, and more effectively. In particular, Storyblok's Visual Editor is a feature the agency's clients find valuable and helpful.
Storyblok helped us create and build websites faster, which are also easy to use for marketers and editors. Therefore, there is no compromise between the experience ambition and the experience we deliver.
Breaking digital boundaries with Storyblok
Dentsu Creative identifies technology limitations as the primary challenge in today's digital market. These include blockers regarding tech stack, infrastructure, and even content creation. They noticed not many CMSs could let them start all over again with their digital projects.
With Storyblok, they can go for their preferred technology stack, considering their clients' specific needs and requirements. It lets them connect favorite frameworks and other technologies with the CMS, providing projects with outstanding performance and uninterrupted data flow. Their favorite technology combination, with Storyblok in the center of the digital hub, is Next.js as a framework and Vercel for hosting. With this tech architecture, they can develop supercharged, more dynamic, secure, and SEO-friendly sites.
