Time Saver! and trusted scalable software
What do you like best about the product?
Most websites (if not all) require dynamic content to be put, edited reviewed, and deleted from their website, so I used to build (reuse) an admin dashboard for each use and manage the database choosing and connection, backend, etc...
with Strapi, I can just create a new strapi project, hook it with a database hosted on a PAAS service, and the CMS part is done! it's an amazing time-saving solution and more scalable because a whole company is backing it up with updates and fixes thanks to their team.

What do you dislike about the product?
Things to improve are the language available in the admin interface, Arabic for example is available as an option but about only 20% is translated.
RTL Supports languages like Persian and Arabic.
Customization of the title just next to the icon, and also to the colors of the interface (more themes).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every app needs content (Mobile app, website, desktop app, etc..).
Strapi is solving the problem of modeling content and providing it to apps in an ease-wey that saves a lot of time and effort.
What used to take some times weeks to prepare, which is preparing the backend, modeling the database with raw languages like MySQL etc..., building routes to access the database, providing roles for authorization, etc.. is now done by strapi, so you only focus on the task at hand, not the abstractions that come with each project (authorization, sign-in-out, admin dashboard, etc.).

Has potential to get a great CMS
What do you like best about the product?
We adopted Strapi a couple of years ago back in the beta phase, The biggest like is the ability to create custom content fairly easily
What do you dislike about the product?
Upgrade and migrations are very manual and documentation is a little anemic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a customizable CMS to integrate with an online learning experience
I love the way how content is managed and associated.
What do you like best about the product?
Strapi has clear guidelines and is simple to use. It is very intuitive to design solutions, and as a headless CMS, it provides more functionality than any other CMS I have used.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation that pertains to customisation can be made better. An Enhanced Rich content editor, as well as Support for a Greater Degree of Customization in Regards to WebHooks can further improve the experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have a web application that I am managing the content of with the help of Strapi. We are relieved to be able to handle all of our content in a one location rather than across several different systems. The amount of time needed to construct solutions has decreased dramatically.
Great Way to Bootstrap a Backend Service
What do you like best about the product?
Strapi is super easy to spin up and customizable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cannot automatically upgrade from v3 to v4. Merging upstream changes can sometimes take a while if you make customization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use strapi as our backend service. Developers can focus on defining their collections rather than writing CRUD endpoints. It also provides a layer to interact with the database.
Wordpress never again
What do you like best about the product?
It just works! It's lightweight, extremely easy to set up, fast and highly customisable. We have built our application using Strapi together with NextJS and Postgres.
What do you dislike about the product?
That granular permission control is not available in the free version of Strapi. This has been a slight hurdle when going to production for us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can finally decouple our data storage and management from our frontend. Wordpress is no longer needed. Instead, we have a beautiful NextJS/TailwindCSS application for our frontend.
Strapi Experience
What do you like best about the product?
Strapi allows for easy creation of models for content. It also allows for easy creation of roles and users for granular access control which helps to consolidate our content in 1 single platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have not tested if we are able to customize structure on Strapi. But what we look forward to testing out is the flexibility of that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us to build a CMS backend for business users to easily change content on our websites without going through the develoeprs.
Great platform, use it for almost all our new projects
What do you like best about the product?
The Strpi platform has allowed our teams and projects to easilty and quickly get our data accessable across multiple applications and projects with little to no trouble.
What do you dislike about the product?
Many of the plugins don't seem to be well maintained so some hacking or work needed to be done to get them working. However overall, the exprince has been very good and easy to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing us to make it easy for developer and non-developers to quickly and easily contribute to our websites, blogs, application and apis.
Intuitive, highly-customizable, and full of potential
What do you like best about the product?
We have a lot of very specific content formatting and structural needs. No matter what I've thrown at Strapi so far within the CMS, it seems to adapt well on the fly. Something I like a lot is being able to customize the administrative front-end for our editorial team. This affords them an incredibly user-friendly interface, all while guaranteeing a stunning experience by connecting it all to a custom front-end. The opportunity for us to use this at scale for future content distribution needs is already very promising. It's genuinely quite fun to use once you familiarize yourself with the feature set.
What do you dislike about the product?
Working with content "collection" types feels a little different from past CMS work, but once you get the hang of it it makes building richer content very fast and reliable. The distinction between "Saved" and "Published" states also takes a little getting used to, semantically. Lastly, we're currently figuring out how to make certain input fields feel more familiar and easier to parse through. But these feel like solvable problems that are far outweighed by the positives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's allowing us to better share control over our content distribution pipeline with our colleagues, and introduce more consistency to our workflow as designers and developers. It's ultimately saving us a great deal of time and energy, and guaranteeing our end users will receive a more consistent and timely experience.
Great time saver!
What do you like best about the product?
Clean interface and power content type builder. Supports SQLite which makes it cheap to deploy to cloud
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks support for Microsoft SQL. Nothing else.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Saves a lot of time rather than implementing CRUD interfaces to all content pages of our website.
No major issues so far!
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we will be able to easily structure and build our course content and have the option to customize to our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that you can't search between collection types.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is giving us a customizable CMS that can be integrated with the other software solutions we use.
