Current Challenges with Strapi

Despite Strapi’s strengths, it can present a steep learning curve for users unfamiliar with its Node.js environment. Maintaining the environment is an unnecessary headache, in our opinion.

Its dependency on developer expertise might pose challenges for smaller teams lacking technical skills. Being focused on headless architecture, Strapi may not cater to users seeking traditional CMS features out of the box. Additionally, users may encounter limitations with certain plugins or require custom development to fully realise project-specific requirements, potentially impacting initial setup time and cost efficiency.

Benefits of Contentful

Contentful is an incredible headless CMS that can reuse documents. It's built far less structured than any other system, which ensures you have a large repository of data that can be used nested from one section to another. A good example would be that you only need to create a copy of a call-to-action once, and it can be reused throughout the whole website again and again. It also has a range of powerful plugins that extend the functionality.

If you're looking for a live preview, it also has a side-by-side editor to ensure your content creators are seeing changes in real-time, side by side with your schema.
