"One of the best CMS"

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.

"The Headless CMS for Non Profits"
What do you like best about Strapi?

For us, as a non-profit organization with limited funds, 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 to a PaaS (e.g., Heroku) such that we don’t have to deal with the runtime environment, OS and so on

- We keep complete 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 been asked and answered before

- GraphQL API (it’s an extension)

What do you dislike about Strapi?

Unfortunately, this highest flexibility comes at a cost: We have to install, deploy, and test it ourselves, but Strapi is about to launch the Strapi Cloud bringing this flexibility to a SaaS. So don’t take this dislike too serious.

What problems is Strapi solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are developing new projects on a modern tech stack, e.g. with NextJS. Thus, we heavily rely on a predictable and potent 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’s/menu structure.

"Great product, powerful tool"
What do you like best about Strapi?

Super quick to get up and running. Allowed us to build out our CMS quickly, allows us to generate our site dynamically and allow our non-technical staff to view all of our relevant data items and page content without hassle.

What do you dislike about Strapi?

It would be great if the top-level navigation could be customized. It would be great to bring out certain object types such as from within the content manager and "pin" them to the top-level navigation.

What problems is Strapi solving and how is that benefiting you?

Providing a centralised API/CMS solution that we can sync our various other tools such as Salesforce too, allowing us to request data easily and in a quickly customisable manner.

"Easy to Deploy and Use for a Small Team"
What do you like best about Strapi?

The plugin system is generally really simple to get started with and enabled us to quickly extend our installation, such as using Cloudinary as a CDN. Similarly, it's proven quick to build with, and the plug-and-play GraphQL support meant we could integrate with our TypeScript codebase easily.

What do you dislike about Strapi?

Sometimes the errors when plugins conflict are really obscure, and I wish that content management was viewable as a top-level navigation item, instead of it being a sub-menu.

What problems is Strapi solving and how is that benefiting you?

We replaced our website and needed CMS that was more customisable than we were previously using. It has so far proven itself in this way. Specifically, our team seems to be able to navigate it with ease.
