Clean and intuitive interface
Gone are the days of cluttered dashboards that make you feel like you're searching for the hidden treasure in a jungle of icons! Craft CMS keeps things tidy, giving editors a clear, uncluttered dashboard where everything is where you expect it to be. It’s simple enough for beginners to pick up, but polished enough that experienced teams won’t feel held back. And yes, it works just as smoothly on a laptop, tablet, or desktop.
Live preview and real-time editing
Hands up if you’ve ever hit “save”, opened a new tab to check your work, then gone back to fix a typo, only to repeat the process three more times. Say goodbye to switching between views with Craft. Its live preview shows you changes as you're make them. So there is no faffing about between edit mode and preview mode, and less admin faff, means more time to focus on creating the actual content. Happy days.

Custom content fields to suit you
Unlike Content Management Systems that shove your content into rigid boxes, Craft lets developers set up custom fields tailored to what your team actually needs. Add in the Matrix field (a fancy name for drag-and-drop content blocks), and you can build pages like LEGO! Stacking text, images, buttons, or quotes wherever they’re needed - and there's no limit to the type of content to be created.
It’s structured enough to keep things consistent, but flexible enough to stop your site looking like everyone else’s. Hurrah!

A user-friendly editor you don’t have to wrestle with
Some CMS platforms feel like they were designed to make editors suffer. Craft CMS takes the opposite approach. Its text editor works much like Google Docs or Word, familiar, straightforward, and distraction-free. Adding links, images, or video is as easy as it should be, and formatting doesn’t require hunting through obscure menus. You can just focus on the words, while Craft handles the behind-the-scenes magic.
Easy content organisation and versioning
Craft makes tidying up content less of a headache. Entries, categories, and tags keep everything in order, so you don’t waste half an afternoon hunting for “that page we did last May”. And if someone makes a change you’re not thrilled about? No stress. Built-in versioning means you can roll back to earlier drafts and keep everyone on the same page (literally, ha).

Seamless media management
We all know content isn’t just words. Images, video, and downloads need wrangling too. Craft CMS keeps that simple: drag-and-drop uploads, automatic thumbnail generation, wide file support.
It’s basically a personal assistant for your visuals, minus the awkward small talk...

Why content teams actually like Craft CMS
For editors and marketers, Craft CMS means fewer roadblocks and more independence:
- Pages get published quicker.
- Campaigns don’t stall waiting for dev time.
- The editor experience feels less like hard work.
- The system grows with you, instead of holding you back.
It’s a CMS that was clearly built by people who’ve actually used one.
And finally...
It's content-friendly by design.
Craft CMS doesn’t just tick boxes for developers, it makes content teams’ lives easier too. From the clean dashboard to live previews and simple media handling, it’s designed to streamline content management without the usual CMS grumbles.
