The process is annoying and it often doesn't let me copy posts, so I have to start from scratch.

Great CMS, easy to use.
What do you like best about the product?
Hygraph as a CMS is a wonderful tool for managing content. I've never had any issues with it running slowly. The user interface is simple and easy for teams to integrate and become familiar with.
What do you dislike about the product?
The content translations are hidden behind a paywall, which is unfortunate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
providing a headless CMS system which is more efficient and cost saving than our older one.
No Unnecessary Backend Processing
What do you like best about the product?
In traditional CMSs, the backend not only stores content but also manages rendering, theming, and plugin execution, resulting in increased server loads. Hygraph distinguishes content from presentation, ensuring that backend resources are utilized solely for structured content management, rather than for rendering and processing UI logic.
What do you dislike about the product?
The issue is API rate limits, which can be a headache for high-traffic applications. If am running real-time AI personalization or fetching a lot of data dynamically, I need to optimize queries and implement caching to avoid hitting limits too quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hygraph’s comprehensive and up-to-date documentation greatly accelerates development timelines, particularly for new developers joining a project.
Solid
What do you like best about the product?
Hygraph's interface is clean and pretty easy to navigate which is good when introducing new team members. Setting up and managing content is straightforward, and the GraphQL API makes querying data efficient. It’s a great balance between flexibility and usability.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hygraph seems to lack built-in templates or pre-made components, so teams need front-end development experience. This can slow things down if content teams need to rely on developers for implementation. So seeing more pre-made components can improve this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hygraph keeps content structured and centralised, making it easier to manage across multiple platforms. Our developers can focus on our custom front-end experience while other teams can update things without worrying about breaking the system. It's essentially improving efficiency across our teams.
A Powerful and Flexible CMS, but With a Bit of a Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
Hygraph makes managing content really easy, especially with its flexible setup and GraphQL API. The interface is clean and intuitive, and I love how you can customize content structures to fit exactly what you need. Plus, it integrates well with other tools, which is a huge bonus.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a little time to get used to, especially if you're new to GraphQL or structured content models. The pricing can feel a bit steep for smaller projects, and some of the more advanced features are locked behind higher-tier plans. Customer support is generally good, but response times can be a bit inconsistent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hygraph helps streamline content management by making it easy to structure and deliver content efficiently across different platforms. The GraphQL API significantly speeds up data retrieval, making it a great tool for projects that require fast, dynamic content updates. The flexibility of the content modeling system allows for better organization and scalability, reducing the time spent on manual content structuring.
A Flexible and Scalable Headless CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Hygraph is an incredibly flexible headless CMS, making it easy to manage structured content across multiple platforms. The GraphQL API is powerful and efficient, allowing seamless data retrieval without unnecessary overhead. The interface is intuitive, and the ability to define custom models and relationships makes content management highly scalable. It’s a great choice for developers and marketers alike!
What do you dislike about the product?
The UX and UI could be more intuitive, especially for non-technical users like copywriters. Some aspects of the interface feel more tailored to developers, which can make content management a bit challenging for those without a technical background. A more user-friendly experience with improved navigation and editing tools would make it even better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Shopware, which has many limitations—especially when it comes to version history and content management flexibility. Hygraph helps us overcome these issues by providing a structured and scalable content solution. Its
Developer-friendly headless CMS

The UI is clean and intuitive, making content management straightforward even for non-technical users. Performance is solid, with fast query execution thanks to GraphQL. Its also very flexible and has many options when it comes to building models
What do you dislike about the product?
Might be a steep learning curve if you are not familar with GQL.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its headless architecture allows me to deliver content seamlessly across multiple platforms (web, mobile, etc.) via GraphQL, improving performance and scalability. The flexible content modeling makes managing complex product catalogs and localization easier, while also allowing me to fetch exactly what I need with minimal overhead. This results in faster development, better site performance, and more control over how content is served, which ultimately enhances the user experience and scalability for future growth.
Security First Approach
What do you like best about the product?
The upside of using Hygraph is its security standards compliance it follows GDPR, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 best practices. This means I don’t have to worry about data privacy risks, as everything from API authentication to content isolation is built with security in mind
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside i consider is that Hygraph does not offer a native media library. unlike traditional CMSs, where I can upload, browse, and manage assets in one place, Hygraph only stores references (URLs) to externally hosted media
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can safely test API modifications, schema updates, and integrations in a sandboxed environment before they impact live users. If an issue arises, i can quickly revert changes without affecting published content.
