Best For
Open-source headless CMS with full self-hosting — best for teams that need data control and customization
The largest CMS ecosystem — massive plugin library, REST API for headless use, and the widest hosting options
Limitations
JavaScript/TypeScript only; cloud offering is newer and less mature; plugin ecosystem varies in quality; v5 migration from v4 was significant
PHP-based architecture; REST API is verbose and less modern than headless-native alternatives; security requires ongoing maintenance; performance depends heavily on hosting and plugins
