A Great Headless CMS But With Some Limtations

  • May 24, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Strapi is a great headless CMS with a lot of great features. I love the clean UI of Strapi. It's also free and open source.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I was using Strapi, I found some limitations when working with Typescript. Also, Strapi doesn't offer a free tier for their cloud plan. I have to self-host to use Strapi, otherwise, the pricing increases a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The headless CMSs offer a ton of customizability with models and more. I was able to create custom types depending on my use case, which is possible but tougher with WordPress.

Great headless CMS

  • May 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Strapi has made creating a highly flexible and powerful API very simple. Most basic functionality is very intuitive, and there's extensive documentation for more complex functionality.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of granular access controls in the community plan reduces the usefulness in some use cases, but these are available in paid plans. Otherwise we haven't encountered any problems
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Setting up a headless CMS for a non-profit organisation involving a number of stakeholders for a website with a Next.js frontend. Strapi has allowed us to build a CMS that is easy to use for non-technical users while still providing the complex functionality necessary for our website.

Headless CMS in Javascript

  • April 30, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The open-source nature of the framework as well as the ability to customize the framework to the needs of the developer. Also like that it's written in NodeJS as it's a very common language.
What do you dislike about the product?
That there is no completely free plan available (as the admin user is limited in the free version). However, they offer a free Bronze version if you are a student or work for an NGO or Open-Source Project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Build an open-source application at my university that enables users to enhance their daily health routine and get news and improvement suggestions about their personal health every day.

The perfect backend for your fast frontends

  • April 27, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Front-end developers can focus solely on frontend.
What do you dislike about the product?
Translation for the backend is not optimal, non-english speaking users may be lost when using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used to have performances problems with our old CMS. Now we can use a fast frontend without losing benefits of a strong backend.

Easy CMS Integration

  • April 23, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the integrational part about Strap to fetch the data from the API into your custom frontend website.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe the guide and ability to customize the frontend for Strapi could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Now I no longer need to deploy my fronted website every time I have to change the content out there. It made me more efficient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Maybe give users more options to customize the frontend at ease

Mostly Open Source Customizable NodeJs-based Headless CMS

  • April 22, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Developer-friendly CMS system that makes it easy to set up your content models and start adding content in minutes. It's pluggable, and you can find plugins for most general use cases. It exposes REST (by default) and GraphQL (with a plugin), but I found GraphQL to be more suitable, and the auto-generated schema serves over 90% of my backend requests. Customizing the backend is possible if you need custom authentication/authorization logic. It has a slick and intuitive admin UI. Integrating OAuth providers was simple, stable and quick.

Backend Customization
The backend can be customized using either JavaScript or TypeScript which is very useful.

Admin UI
Admin UI is constantly improving with every release allowing customization for Rich Text inputs, dark mode and other features based on the community feedback.
What do you dislike about the product?
Data Modeling
Database unique and required constraints are not applicable for relations' fields.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Self-hosted headless CMS for Arabic-only software review and recommendation service.

Best open source headless CMS

  • April 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
East to get started, customize and scale.
What do you dislike about the product?
Migration from v3 to v4 is a bit tedious, hopefully, will be improved over time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Implementing headless CMS, much faster time to develop...

Great Customisable CMS

  • April 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Strapi enables us to create a backend and CMS at the same time using a web interface while also enabling us to fully customise and add extra features to our backend using code. We're able to create graphql routes for each model or content type we add, and these routes have the full CRUD functionality, this has saved us a lot of time while building.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the documentation isn't as helpful and is sometimes not up to date, this is something that has caused confusion for our developers while building or making certain customisations, so it's the one area that could definitely improve. The plugin marketplace is also very limited for v3.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're solving to create a CMS that non-technical members of our team can use, and also reduce the learning curve for new developers joining our project, Strapi enables us achieve both with it's interactive admin dashboard.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Strapi is great if you're looking for a customisable modern CMS, because of its ability to create both Rest API and GraphQL routes while creating models/content types directly via the admin which is a powerful feature for such a CMS.
