Off-the-shelf content management solutions seldom provide support for custom client requirements out of the box. Expanding such systems with plugins inevitably leads to upgrade problems and eventually total paralysis.

Remedy can be provided by either using

• Headless CMS solutions like Contentful or Sanity
• a completely customized content management backend

Which alternative best suits your needs depends on content requirements (e.g. formats, internationalization, e-commerce readiness) as well as time constraints.
