Very good and intuitive product with helpful and responsive support!

  • December 01, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is my goto CMS for any project I create.
It's very intuitive, the free plan limitations are just enough for small projects.
Helpful API playground makes any integration simple and fast.
Customer support is very helpful and responsive, even outside the working hours. They were kind enough to grant me an access to the premium feature for a university project!
What do you dislike about the product?
The localization of assets might be easier
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As any content management system, Hygraph helps me separate the struggle of filling the client's content for their webpage by simply allowing them access to the project and do it themselves.
Besides that, it has an excelent set of free features, perfect for creating all startup projects.

Great CMS but can get even better

What do you like best about the product?
Hygraph offers most of the features I would expect from a high-end CMS; schedued publishing, customizability of the interface, rich-text editor and more. So far what has made me feel extra good about Hygraph is their swift and helpful customer support.

The localisation is very good and the integration with Lokalise is a great help to our team.

It was very easy to get started, and our editors seem happy with the experience so far.

I know Hygraph are working on a new UI and some other improvements and I'm looking forward to see what they will do.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hygraph are missing some features that I think would elevate it to the next level. For example autosaving entries and being able to save incomplete entries (without required fields). There has been some bugs, but most of them has been resolved quickly after reporting them.

I would also prefer if there were more settings on fields, for example being able to specify that an assets should be an image, or what dimentions are allowed. Also, lists can't be required which to me seems a bit odd.

The documentation is generally good but sometimes a bit difficult to navigate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hygraph allows our editors to work independently, so that they can manage the content on our web products without the need of developer interference.

Great product, great support but still room for improvement.

What do you like best about the product?
We inherited the project from an agency and therefore had no influence on the information architecture in HyGraph. Thanks to the good support, we have learned how to do it right and always get support along the way. The HyGraph team is very helpful and I can only recommend using their expertise at the beginning of the project. The tool is easy to use and the structure makes sense. I particularly like the app area for extending functionality, as you can fall back on useful implementations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our information architecture in HyGraph is not optimal and we have very high traffic on the system as a result. This is clearly our fault, but it is still annoying. I would like to see more metrics and transparency regarding access to resources and assets. We currently find it difficult to reduce requests per second, for example, as we have little insight into the data. In addition, asset traffic is calculated based on accesses to the resource and not on accesses to the assets. This feels a bit unfair as the image is not always loaded and with a TTL of 30 days, the images are usually in the CDN anyway.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have 40 different markets in our company that broadcast dynamic content and various entities such as products, recipes, etc. on one website. We use the CMS to enable the markets to enter their content and manage it in multiple languages.

Very nice CMS for localization and large scale

  • November 09, 2023

What do you like best about the product?
Very responsive to feedback when there's a bug or for feature requests.
They don't implement everything we've asked them to, but they listen and make improvements to their product when the feature makes sense.

Their webhook implementation is good, we use it to notify backend systems about content being updated, but we can opt out of receiving notifications when our automated systems performs the update.

The user interface is intuitive enough that normal people can use it.

The custom app integration is pretty nice. It allows us to do our own content quality checks and give instant feedback to the editor.
What do you dislike about the product?
When you have a lot of data, the user interface can become slow.
You'll have to manually update a default view of each model to reduce the amount of data you fetch when you're just trying to get the overview.

If you have a lot of languages (10+) then the user interface can become a bit messy, but it's a lot nicer than many solutions out there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hygraph takes the burden of managing our content pieces, many of them very complex, without us having to update a single field.
It enables us to move quickly in content creation, and update our content modeling without having to write many lines of code.

We also don't have to worry about handling the database for the content (our data is easily in the hundreds of gigabytes, if not a few terabytes)

Very quick to get up and running; static asset service is great!

  • November 02, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's free to get started, and priced competitively to the market. Data schemas are easy to develop, and GraphQL is easy to work with. The static asset service is great - super easy to resize, crop, and change image formats for optimum cross-platform delivery.
What do you dislike about the product?
Web interfaces are somewhat limited, although I know they are working to make improvements here.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is our content management platform and allows us to have a single source of truth for all of our content and static asset needs.

A review

What do you like best about the product?
GraphQL API. After migrating our blog from hubspot which uses rest api I realised how lucky I was to use Hygraph. I'm a content creator so I knew Hygraph before as Graphcms and created some blog generation content with it. So I was the one suggested it to my team :) Thank you for creating it! Its super fast easy learning curve and people value your ideas. Thank you
What do you dislike about the product?
Changing the schema validations after you create 1000+ content on the schema is harsh. I added slug later on after adding 1000+ entries and wasnt able to autofill the slugs from blog titles
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we are using it as cms for our lovely blog

What do you like best about the product?
User experience, powerful queries with content api
What do you dislike about the product?
Content sync between environments (prod-staging) would be a useful feature
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a content storage app that we dont have to maintain. Hygraph does this job very well.

Easy-to-Use, Feature Rich CMS platform with Amazing Customer Support

  • August 04, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a developer, I found myself quickly being able to implement an integration with this CMS. The API playground was such a big help in this because I had no previous GraphQL experience. Also, the customer support is amazing, they reply fast and always find a workaround for your specific use case.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have a Python backend, and there is no example on how to integrate hygraph using Python in the documentation, perhaps that could be added at some point to the github repo.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is equally easy to use for technical and non-technical users. The interface is self-explanatory and the structures are clear. This allows a seamless, low-overhead content production and release process where the content team can work on their own terms and trust that the content will be delivered to the user in the right structure. This is also due to the very well thought-out field types and validators. From a developer perspective, those ensure that the content follows the format expected by the application, for it to be correctly displayed. It is easy to set up validators and display informative error messages shown to the content editors. This reduces back-and-forth between content teams and technical teams and keeps the content on a high quality level.

Excellently designed CMS

  • August 04, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favourite thing about Hygraph is the user interface. As a content admin this makes my experience seamless and something that I enjoy when compared to the comparatively outdated alternatives.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times I find that the website doesn't scare in a way that I would expect. I sometimes work from my laptop away from the office and when I split screen windows not all of the ui elements fall into a place that is clear without being a maximised window.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hygraph makes it far easier than the alternative systems that I've used before to manage content across multiple stores and product categories. It improves productivity speed and allows the team to get through vast amounts of content quickly.
