Choose Publii or Hygraph?

Why choose Publii?
Publii focuses on great editor experience with the block editor. It's a great choice for sites that are statically generated with plenty of choice of blog templates. However, it is not suitable for teams who wants to have custom design or have a blog in the same subdirectory as their main site.
Why choose Hygraph?
Hygraph is a great choice for developers who want to build a fully customizable CMS with a strong focus on content modeling and flexibility. Expect a steep learning curve and a high level of technical expertise. Pricing also scales quickly once the team exceeds 20 users.
