      Shaun, Dave and the team at Launchlab took my startup from idea to product launch. To say i am a massive promoter of these guys is an understatement. The level of diligence, responsiveness, thoroughness and capability far exceeded any expectations i had for a software development project. The team, led by Shaun, made this experience very simple for me. They were flexible and were always conscious to make sure the key decisions along the way, aligned with my vision. These guys should be every Australian entrepreneurs software developer of choice!

      Working with Shaun and Dave from Launch Lab on OX Rooms has been a fantastic experience! Choosing them to develop our platform and website was one of our best early decisions. After meeting with several development teams, it was clear that Launch Lab not only understood our vision but could also deliver a top-quality product.Launch Lab consistently delivers high-quality work and is responsive to any issues that arise. They communicate directly and don’t waste time, keeping the scope on track while remaining flexible with adjustments and always bringing solutions—not problems—when challenges come up.Shaun and Dave have been invaluable partners, making it enjoyable and rewarding to work together on OX Rooms. I look forward to our ongoing collaboration and reaching new heights together!I highly recommend Launch Lab to anyone looking for a skilled and reliable development team!

      I've just completed a project with Launch Lab and it's the second time I've worked with them on launching a website (for two different companies, APositive and Waddle). I can't praise them highly enough. When I got the opportunity to build a new website, my first thought was 'speak to Shaun'. They know exactly what they are doing, I trust their recommendations completely and their work is of the highest quality. From beginning to end everything has gone smoothy and professionally. Highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions About Headless CMS Companies

What are the typical services provided by headless CMS developers?

Headless CMS companies plan, implement, and operate a headless content management system (CMS), so teams can efficiently publish content across websites, apps, and other digital channels. Typical headless CMS development services include: 

  • Headless CMS consulting and strategy: Advising businesses on the best headless CMS vendor and architecture or optimizing current platforms to meet their goals.  
  • Platform migration: Moving content and assets from legacy systems while preserving data integrity, security, and SEO with minimal downtime. 
  • Custom headless CMS development: Building the content models, automations, and user roles as well as the front and back end to ensure easy maintainability and reliable performance. 
  • API and plugin development: Integrating the headless CMS platform with third-party systems, such as payment gateways, CRMs, ERPs, and marketing automation tools. 
  • Ongoing maintenance and support: Continuously monitoring the platform's performance, resolving issues, installing security patches and updates, and managing infrastructure. 

What is the difference between headless CMS and traditional CMS?

A headless CMS separates the content management backend from the frontend experiences. As such, content is delivered via APIs to any channel (websites, mobile apps, and IoT devices), so teams can reuse the same content across multiple experiences. 

On the other hand, a traditional CMS has a unified back- and front-end (monolithic), meaning that there is a single interface that often comes in the form of a website. It can still power multiple channels, but doing so requires extensive tooling and customization. 

Here are more details on their differences: 

 Headless CMS platformsTraditional CMS platforms
Advantages
  • Tech agnostic, allowing teams to use any framework
  • Consistent omnichannel experiences due to API-first approach
  • Highly collaborative, allowing for developer, content, and marketing teams to work simultaneously
  • Cost effective due to the availability of pre-built solutions (WordPress, Drupal, etc.) and templates 
  • User-friendly, allowing teams with limited tech knowledge to configure
  • Faster time-to-market launch
Disadvantages
  • Higher build complexity 
  • Requires technical expertise 
  • Potentially more expensive to develop 
  • Slower initial setup but faster iteration cycles
  • Less front-end flexibility 
  • Omnichannel needs extra work 
  • Scalability for multiple experiences can be difficult 

What are the most common headless CMS platforms?

Based on our research, here are some of the most common headless CMS platforms that developers use: 

  • WordPress: While it is a traditional CMS, it can be converted into a headless platform when paired with a modern JavaScript framework. Use this platform if you already have an existing WordPress-based site and want to migrate to a headless one. 
  • Strapi: An open-source, self-hosted headless CMS, enabling teams to have higher control over their data and infrastructure while being able to customize plugins, APIs, and workflows. Choose Strapi if you want to keep your data within your servers, and data sovereignty is non-negotiable. 
  • Contentful: A digital experience platform (DXP) with an API-first architecture and an extensive library of pre-built integrations. This platform is common for enterprises with complex needs and legacy tools. 
  • Sanity: Known for its collaboration features and flexible content management, Sanity is ideal for businesses that prioritize agility through controlled yet automated workflows. 

While these are the most common platforms, reputable headless CMS companies will recommend a tech stack that best matches your goals, technical requirements, existing systems, operating models, team capabilities, and target audiences. 

What companies benefit the most from headless CMS?

Many organizations benefit the most from a headless CMS when they need to publish content to multiple digital channels, scale across regions, or build custom experiences without being constrained by a single website template system. Common scenarios include: 

  • eCommerce and retail with multiple customer touchpoints (web, app, in-store screens) and heavy integrations (PIM, inventory, CRM, marketing automation), where teams want faster experimentation and performance. 
  • Brands running omnichannel campaigns (web + mobile + social + email + in-product) that need to reuse content consistently across channels. 
  • Product-led or platform businesses building multiple front ends (customer portals, apps, partner dashboards) that require developer flexibility and frequent releases. 
  • Global enterprises managing multiple markets, languages, and brands—where content governance, localization workflows, and reusable components are essential. 

When should a company NOT use headless CMS frameworks?

A headless CMS may not be the best fit if: 

  • You need to launch quickly on a tight budget, and a template-based website will meet your goals. 
  • Your site is simple (e.g., a landing page or small brochure site), and you do not need multiple channels, complex integrations, or frequent changes. 
  • You do not have ongoing development capacity (in-house or via a retainer) to maintain the front end, integrations, and updates. 
  • Your team depends on visual page-building and WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editing and you are not prepared to invest in a headless setup that delivers an equivalent editorial experience.
