Choose Strapi or Contentful?

Why choose Strapi?
Strapi shines as a headless CMS for developers who prioritize customization and extensibility over ease of use. Its open-source nature and robust plugin ecosystem offer unparalleled flexibility, but this power comes with the trade-off of increased technical overhead and a less intuitive experience for non-technical users.
Why choose Contentful?
Contentful is a great choice for enterprise companies with complex content needs and resources for the high price tag and potential training.
