Yes, usually when you have a team and need governance over users / content / state. i.e. a publishing workflow that might have specific regulatory review requirements etc.

We're finding that this is becoming even more critical when users are using agents and the scale of changes / publishing increases. Pair that with things like AI regulations that require records of human providence etc, and a CMS becomes even more important.

You mean the kind of development that powers nearly the entire web?

Moved on from a cms? No, they’re more used than ever before.

websites are still made out of content, I think?
