Ideal CMS for any Enterprise or Small Business
What do you like best about the product?
Strapi is overall very easy for developers and users. It has sensible and easy-to-integrate querying whether it's via fetch or GraphQL, and their default data modeling tools solve most of the use cases I've had without much customization. I use it for just about every client I work with now, provided they actually have content to publish. The customer support is also very helpful. While on a larger corporate engagement, which was my first project using Strapi, our project managers reached out to them often and they were always responsive and helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a CMS, I expect to see more user-friendly rich text entry than what you get with Strapi Basic. Sure, it's easy enough to use other plugins to have a more robust rich text editor, but if Strapi were to make that more easily available, it would be the perfect solution for any business's editorial needs right out of the box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing clients with a way to manage their content without having to go through a developer. It gives me an easy way to get clients to sign onto full-stack development projects with the ability for them to manage their own content without a lengthy development period.
Changing CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Strappy is a CMS easy to use, install, and deploy
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited Database Migration/Seed Support: the platform has limited support for database migration and seeding, which can be a challenge when moving content types or making updates
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lots of Wordpress issues regarding CMS
One of the best headless CMS available in Node.js. Highly sclable
What do you like best about the product?
The framework itself and easy of developing and deploying custom plugins.
Strapi is open source and very easy to learn. Its the fastest way to deploy api's and add security layers to it.
Best part is that it has a huge community support.

What do you dislike about the product?
Deploying strapi is tricky if you are self hosting this tool.
Few things you might need to take care of like using pm2 and deploying instances of strapi on different ports to better support and decouple heavy processes that needs to run on multiple threads on a server.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Content Management, providing a backend UI to manage content. Enabling faster API development and deployment along with ACL.

What do you dislike about the product?
The PRO features. I don't think this should be in the community version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I believe that scalability is key feature.
Really solid but simple
What do you like best about the product?
I have found Strapi simple yet powerful. We have another enterprise CMS that is behemoth and very easy to get tied into its proprietary features. Strapi so far has given me a simple headless CMS that allows my apps to stay largely CMS agnostic - exactly what I wanted.
Its interface is intuitive and makes content creation and management easy, even for less technical team members. I have bene impressed with the flexibility in API usage. My devs have found integration really quite fun and straightforward, largely thanks to its well-documented APIs and straightforward customization options.
Strapi - the company has proven responsive to user base. The development team appears to be well-focused on enhancing the platform by implementing features that add actually the most value. There is a solid community around this product and, as such its pretty easy to get input from other users.
We don't typically do a ton of cloud deployment, but we are running Strapi cloud pro and I could not be happier with it. Deployment and management are simple and reduce the burden on my team. Really excellent cloud implementation - definitely exceeded my expectations, but devs can spin up a local instance in a minute or 2 for their work.

What do you dislike about the product?
The recent (beta 5) introduction of versioning and further simplification of the API is an example of Strapi's responsiveness. Lack of these 2 features in version 4 would have been my only gripe.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Headless CMS without bloat, but with loose coupling was the business need. Simple and does its job well and not a bunch of extra stuff. That's what we need from our integration solutions, allowing us to focus on loose coupling, but with a reliable feature set.
Strapi great option for headless CMS
What do you like best about the product?
I like the community approach of strapi and the richness of features they provide. I've tested a couple products in the market and this is one of the best.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the Admin user experience could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
help helps with a cost effective way of building and scalling a headless CMS built on a nodejs stack
A User-Friendly CMS with Exceptional Support
What do you like best about the product?
Strapi has a very intuitive interface, which has helped both our technical and non-technical teams. The roles in the admin panel are very useful because whenever I deploy something for the non-technical members to use, they ask me, "Does this allow me to break something unintentionally?" With the roles in the Strapi panel, I can disable everything but content editing, and they can use it without any fear. Another aspect worth mentioning is their customer support. I reached out to them on LinkedIn and via email. The email support was not very good; they didn’t understand what we needed, but the LinkedIn support was exceptional. They quickly communicated and gave us exactly what we needed. We currently use Strapi weekly, and it is reliable.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Strapi's implementation and integration process is straightforward and developer-friendly, a point of consideration is the separation between development and production environments. Content created and managed in the development doensn't automatically propagate to the production environment, an you need to re-enter all the content again in the production. Another thing is their e-mail support. I think they have a "customer success manager" or something similar, a person who is not very familiar with the technological aspects of the product. They don't really understand and help with technical problems. Given that this platform is more geared towards developers than end-users, I would like to see a technical person in the support team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Strapi has solved our need for a simple and quick-to-set-up content management system, which is a big help for our team members who aren't technical. It's made managing our website a lot easier for everyone, speeding up our work.
Used Strapi for Funding Partner Proof of Concent
What do you like best about the product?
Strapi was instrumental in quick prototyping for a funding partner's application needs. The flexible schema and cloud hosting were especially helpful in getting something off the ground.
We were able to easily connect the Strapi backend, with Algolia search and a Remix frontend in a short period of time, which helped us deliver the application needed.

What do you dislike about the product?
The plan pricing of Strapi Cloud didn't match our needs. Strapi has recently introduced other plans to address this issue, which is nice to see.
We had some issues customizing the admin experience as much as we wanted, though that may be more about our need for a user-facing admin system.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Strapi as an administrative backend for a proof-of-concept product.
Very helpful and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Easy to add tables and relations between them. I was looking for a headless CMS to rapidly and easily add content. I've had a dataset in mind but the project is always evolving and would required much work if i chose postgreSQL database with prisma for example. With Strapi i can change relations and add new fields to fit my needs. It is not difficult to use because the interface is very well presented and there is not too much informations or parameters so the settings are well managable. The documentation is well written and i find everything i need. Transfer datas from local to remote or reverse is a very easy thing to do . This is all i was looking for for my app and Strapi save me so much times.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing in particular. When you add datas sometimes and switch to another collection type , the page turn white and you have to delete all the parameters in the url to the /admin path to refresh the page?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to add datas, ressources and content , manage users and roles. Easy to modify collection types and relations.
Soo easy
What do you like best about the product?
I have been sceptical of 'out of the box' solutions for creating dynamic content. However, when I was faced with needing a blog for our corporate site, and after dismissing so many options out there, Strapi led from the front, with a simple setup both locally & using the cloud platform, a fair price, and the ability to customise as we needed rather than being locked into a pre-defined solution. The CI pipeline is easy to work with, and the API is well-documented and easy to implement.
I would advise anyone looking for a bit more than a hosted CMS that Strapi is for you!
