Easy to set up and get started with. Versatile content modeling with flexible model relations and on-fly changes without the need or worry about API, GraphQL obviously, and a cherry on top - included CDN with image transformation. Oh wait, there are two cherries on top, Netlify integration being the other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The UI could use some TLC, seems like it was put together in a rush. I don't believe that developers would even notice this, but for content managers, it could take some time to get familiar with it. It's very flat, the whole screen looks like one big area but the actual entry form is just one column, with no tabs to group the content nor multiple columns. That single column is also hard to glance at and quickly find what you're looking for.
Assets feature is also quite limited. It serves the purpose but it's very low-key. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The live graphql editing was a useful feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Our experience with graphcms has been uniformly negative.
When we deployed on the platform our production site would regularly be broken due to how what is now called 'legacy graphcms' worked internally. Specifically any edits to our content would cause some kind of cache invalidation in graphcms and our entire site would go down due to being unable to access content.
Further, the way content editing works on the legacy platform was unusable by our marketing team. Specifically the way drafts worked caused content to disappear from our site b/c once an object was set to draft it would disappear from the published site.
We are extremely dissatisfied with our experience and are now faced with graphcms forcing us to do more work to migrate off of your legacy platform onto your new platform. We have 0 confidence that this work is useful or warranted based on our experience with the legacy system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Especially for read-only sites, it's incredibly easy to get started with. I love how easy it is to use alongside NextJS to build sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's young software, so it still needs some polish. Nothing crazy terrible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
GraphCMS does a great job of balancing powerful content modeling capabilities with a simple-to-use user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I haven’t found much to dislike about it, to be honest. I have noticed a couple of small glitches in the UI, but they were fixed with a page refresh. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They have fantastic API support where you can control everything in your CMS. Also, the customer support they offer is spotless. They have helped us way out of office hours and fix everything we request quckly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hopefully you could add more things to it, To not be limited in this time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
APIs are mighty and simple to use. I also love the PIM functionality; this is not something that any CMS has. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'd love to see a user management functionality (users login, logout, etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
