We are the Strapi to Dato CMS migration experts

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.
