We are the Sitecore to Directus migration experts

Sitecore’s complexity can pose challenges, particularly during the initial setup and configuration phases, which require significant technical expertise. Its cost structure may be prohibitive for smaller organisations, given the investment needed for licensing and ongoing maintenance. Additionally, the platform’s advanced features and customisation options can lead to lengthy implementation timelines. Users might also face a steep learning curve, and reliance on specialised development resources can further increase the time and costs associated with deploying and managing Sitecore solutions.

Directus instantly wins points with us because, well… it has a rabbit for a logo. But beyond that, it’s genuinely a solid database-first CMS. If you like the idea of a CMS that sits directly on top of your SQL database without any abstractions, Directus feels incredibly natural.

You can self-host it, tweak it endlessly, and treat your schema exactly the way you want. Editors get a no-code admin UI that feels polished, developers get REST and GraphQL out of the box, and teams get workflows, versioning, automations, and proper permission controls. It’s flexible, fast, and a great fit if your content is really just structured data waiting for a smarter interface. If your project revolves around relational data and you want total control from database to API, Directus is one of the cleanest ways to build it.
