How do I know if a headless platform is right for me?

General questions

The easiest way to determine if a headless platform is best for you is to ask yourself these questions:

  1. What are your business requirements and does a headless platform solve these requirements?
  2. Do you have access to qualified individuals to help with the setup and ongoing management of the platform?
  3. Can you determine the content types that you will require (e.g. buttons, headers, lists, options, etc.)?
  4. Do you want to design your own components using the content types you can define? You can always add components later but planning up front will help with organizing your content for distribution.
  5. Determine if you want to enrich your content with templates and styling to create consistent output and not just data.
  6. Do you want to test the output from the headless platform using tools that allow you to make API calls?
  7. Do you want to configure the destination systems to accept the information?
