Great for content optimization! Just one caveat.
Had my eye on Contentpace for quite a while. Already owning Neuronwriter, I wasn't sure of the need for Contentpace. Yet I couldn't ignore the generous limits on the higher tiers. Huge benefit for the amount of writing we intend to do.
Contentpace and Neuron obviously have many similarities. There are things Neuron does better, content optimization being the main aspect. However, in Contentpace I was very pleasantly surprised by the generated topic reports, from which a content brief can be created to be exported or shared with team members or clients. Absolutely brilliant. It's currently lacking the option to publish straight to Wordpress, but that seems to be on the roadmap, so that's great.
The interface for the content optimization tab is where I believe it's somewhat lacking compared to similar tools. In my experience Neuronwriter and Dokey felt more intuitive. Perhaps it just takes a bit more getting used to.
The reason I'm giving it 4 tacos and not 5 is the lack of roles, permissions, folders and/or workspaces. We've invested in 7 codes for the maximum amount of credits, which based on their recurring plans grants the equivalent of 10 agency plans. For these limits I don't believe it's unreasonable to have basic folder and permission functionality included. Neuronwriter has article or project level permissions from 3+ codes.
We require this for both internal use and for client access. There is no need for each member to have full access to each project and client. Also we like to actively involve our clients in the writing process, but the lack of permissions prohibits this. We obviously can't allow access to an entire account where we manage multiple clients.
Muntasir did mention these features, along with white label, will be offered as an agency upgrade at an additional annual fee, which won't exceed $200. As mentioned before, I could understand this for the white label option. However, we have no issue showing Contentpace branding.
In Contentpace, I noticed users are already assigned a role, there's already a dropdown for workspaces, just no option to create additional ones. I'm assuming most of the groundwork is already there. Are folders and permissions so resource intensive to require an additional annual fee? That would feel like unnecessary basic feature gating.
The higher tiers combined with a lack of basic permissions are a bit of a mismatch to me. Purchasing 4 codes already grants more credits than the website's Agency plan, so Contentpace realizes those are volumes that require folders and permissions. It's something the competitors include in their offers and I'm really hoping this restriction will be reconsidered, at the very least for those of us that purchased more than 4 or 5 codes.
Those not workin with teams, requiring permissions or client access, this is obviously no problem, in which case I can still wholeheartedly recommend Contentpace.

May 9, 2024Thanks a lot for the detail review and feedback π This version of Contentpace is focused on making team work easy and faster. We are soon releasing a update with notification system along with automatically curated task list for users based on their assigned projects. This will make content production even faster. These all will be included in current LTD.
We are also working on a version specifically focused on client servicing and team workspace together for writing businesses. This will be a customized version of Contentpace with lot more features. This is the agency version and we will offer massive discount for our existing LTD users.
Thanks again for the kind support π I have taken notes.
