Choose Directus or Content Collections?
Why choose Directus?
Directus is a great choice for developers seeking a flexible, headless CMS with complete customization, but its pricing plans can be limiting with only single tier of professional cloud plan.
Why choose Content Collections?
Content Collections is ideal for projects that prioritize developer experience, offering built-in validations, performance optimizations, and seamless integration with TypeScript for a smooth and simplified content management process. However the lack of support for an intuitive editor and image handling may be a dealbreaker for some teams.
