One of the best CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Strapi is a great CMS(Content Management System) which provide a lot of great features like easy integration with the product, fast content change, inbuilt editor with multiple formatting options. The content also includes and option to support media files.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although Strapi is a great product, but there is one thing that can be improved which is the editor provides a very limited formatting options. The editor is a bit basic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using strapi as content management system for our course content in Learning Management System. We also use strapi for managing the content of our blogs and events.
Best balance between "build v buy" you can find. Especially if you ned to self-host.
What do you like best about the product?
Clear intuitive interface. Excellent collection of plugins. Define data structures in development mode and then enforce them in published versions. Landed itself wonderfully to dockerizing both in local development and production environment. Has GraphQL capability which accelerates development. Put Apollo Client on the other end and you are good to go. Also has a plugin to output all the TypeScript types for entities you defined in the backend. Plugins are very straightforward to install and propagate between environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Native API querying is quite cumbersome. Has a nice Swagger plugin for the API, but it does not work properly for data fetch which renders it useless. GraphQL is the way to go, however, in v4 data structures became significantly complex. There is no way to force relationships between entities to be required.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Content management has well-defined flows and data entry needs. StrAPI removes tedious CRUD work to upload and publish your content. It also provides plugins for various types of hosting content to expedite development. At the same time, it gives you full flexibility to either build out the user interface completely or integrate CMS elements into an existing interface. In addition, it satisfies the self-hosting requirement, by supporting major data stores like Postgres and MySQL out of the box.

What do you dislike about the product?
- The documentation do not update with each update, you have to search a lot to find a solution to new versions bugs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- It's an easy and advanced way to have our own CMS and it's free
Strapi is a simple and intuitive CMS for beginners, which is my case.
What do you like best about the product?
In my case, I started a Open Source project with React and I need a database with CMS so I decided to use Strapi to learn since I had never used it before

Sometimes, when entering pages and performing certain actions, it shows an error card that doesn't make sense, and it could you confuse making you think that you did wrong
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Strapi solved my backend databaseCMS system in my project because I'm simulating an online store to practice Remix Run, Next JS and Astro using React as frontend
The Headless CMS for Non Profits
What do you like best about the product?
For us, as a non-profit organisation with limited resources, Strapi offers one of the best solutions on the market when it comes to headless CMS:
- It’s easy to install and configure
- It can be deployed on a PaaS (e.g. Heroku), but even better, we simply use the Strapi Cloud to deploy our instance at an incredible price.
- We retain full control over UI, extensions, data and models
- Maximum flexibility through extensions, i.e. use the HTML editor of your choice
- It is open source
- Excellent documentation - most questions have already been asked and answered
- GraphQL API:
- It’s an extension maintained by the Strapi team
- Since Strapi version 5, the GraphQL API has improved immensely to provide an excellent developer experience.

What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately, there is no built-in HTML editor, forcing us to install one via an extension. The standard editor is using JSON abstract syntax tree (AST) and, if you are running a NextJS instance e.g., you will need an extra package to convert AST to HTML.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We develop new projects on a modern tech stack, such as NextJS. So we rely heavily on a predictable and powerful API. With Strapi, we can decide whether to consume REST or GraphQL—both work well. Editors get a fantastic user experience with components in models, the media manager and the navigation extension for drawing the site/menu structure.
A flexible and powerful kick-start for any project
What do you like best about the product?
It's allowed us to get started very quickly in moving from concept to implementation.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have had to find some ways to work around free tier limitations as we are working as a non-profit.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're developing a free and open source infrastructure for the development and sharing of teaching material to help build capacity in developing countries.
Looking forward to seeing more features on Strapi
What do you like best about the product?
Overall content management is so great. And the best part is the API services that we are getting out of the box.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel Strapi 3 Dashboard UI/UX was better than Strapi 4.

It is solving our scalability issue.
Very easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
I really like Strapi, it make products management very easy and it's a very ergonomic software.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only think I don't really like is that to change the defaults role, you need to have a premium subscription
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Strapi is solving management problems by making them easier to manage
Great, component-based manager
What do you like best about the product?
Wonderful means of coordinating the various components of content for website builds and updates - copy writers contribute, graphic artists contribute, component-builders build, etc....
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to assign roles that minimize risk for various levels of users to do something unintended (like delete a component or page.)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing folks with multiple roles and levels of experience to co-manage and collaborate.
