FAQ
Asked first, every time.
Don't see yours here? Send us the question — a principal engineer will reply within 24 hours.
AEM is powerful but heavily monolithic, expensive, and requires niche Java skills. Strapi is lightweight, API-first, uses ubiquitous JavaScript/Node.js, and eliminates massive licensing fees.
Strapi supports robust draft/publish workflows, role-based access control (RBAC), and review workflows (in Enterprise edition), effectively mirroring AEM's governance capabilities.
Because Strapi is headless, we simultaneously build a modern frontend (typically Next.js or React) to consume the Strapi APIs and replicate or enhance the previous AEM design.
Yes. Strapi has excellent internationalization (i18n) support built-in, allowing you to manage localized content seamlessly across different regions and languages.
