I have had a working relationship with Glaze Digital for more than 8 years. During that time, they have designed two Shopify stores for my business Lusana Shoe Boutique. We also work with Glaze in terms of our email marketing and google advertising. The service provided is excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending Glaze Digital as a business partner.

"Thanks so much to the team at Cache 22. We had a lot of back and forth with Nisha, Maitreyee, and Ajay to align the vision for our business, and they were attentive, patient and really came to the bat for us after our previous developers had let us down. This actually meant a lot of work for them picking apart the mess we'd been left. so we're highly appreciative of this and the hustle that led up to our launch date. And we're very happy and grateful with where our website is now!" - Khushboo Patel

Gangotri /Nomi's Review Sourced from Google
We want to take a moment to express our heartfelt appreciation to Nisha, Maitreyee and CACHE22 team members for the incredible work you all have done in bringing Nomi website to life.
From day one, you all approached this project with a level of passion, creativity, and professionalism that exceeded every expectation. You took the time to deeply understand what Nomi represents our mission, our values, and the energy we wanted to share with the world and turned that vision into a digital experience that feels authentic, vibrant, and user - friendly. The design, functionality, and attention to detail are simply outstanding. What makes your work even more remarkable is how gracefully you handled every challenge along the way. Despite tight timelines, constant tweaks, and the inevitable curveballs, you stayed calm, solution-focused, and always had our best interests in mind. You made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth, collaborative, and even fun. Thanks to your dedication and skill, we launched on time with a platform we’re truly proud of. Even after launching our website you all are still resolving whatever issue we are still facing and guiding us, we are thankful for the same.
You didn’t just build a website you built the face of our brand, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have had you by our side on this journey.

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 platforms
Traditional 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.
