Q: What does 'headless CMS' actually mean?

A headless CMS separates content management from content display. Content editors create and organise content through an admin panel, and that content is delivered through APIs rather than being tied to a specific website template. This means the same content can be displayed on a website, mobile app, or any digital channel.

Q: Is Strapi free to use?

Strapi's Community Edition is free and open-source. It includes all core CMS features, content type building, role-based access control, and API generation. Strapi also offers an Enterprise Edition with additional features like single sign-on, audit logs, and premium support for organisations that need them.

Q: Where is Strapi hosted?

Strapi is self-hosted, meaning you run it on your own servers or cloud infrastructure. This gives you full control over your data, security, and performance. We deploy Strapi on AWS, Google Cloud, or your preferred hosting environment and handle the infrastructure configuration.

Q: Can non-technical team members use Strapi?

Yes. Strapi's admin panel is designed for content editors who do not write code. They get a clean interface for creating, editing, and publishing content with media uploads, rich text editing, and content previews. Developers configure the content structure; editors manage the actual content.

Q: How does Strapi compare to WordPress?

WordPress is a traditional CMS where content and presentation are tightly coupled. Strapi is headless, so it only manages content and delivers it through APIs. Strapi is a better fit when you need to serve content to multiple channels (web, mobile, IoT) or when your development team wants full control over the frontend technology stack.

Q: Can you migrate our existing content into Strapi?

Yes. We build migration scripts that extract content from your current CMS, map it to Strapi content types, and import it with all relationships and media assets intact. We typically run the migration in stages, starting with a test batch to verify the mapping before processing the full dataset.

We can help you automate your business with Strapi and hundreds of other systems to improve efficiency and productivity. Get in touch if you’d like to discuss implementing Strapi.

About Strapi

Strapi is an open-source headless CMS that gives development teams full control over their content architecture and API design. Unlike traditional CMS platforms that couple content management with frontend presentation, Strapi provides content through APIs so the same data can power websites, mobile apps, digital signage, and any other channel that consumes structured content.

Organisations choose Strapi when they need a content management system that developers can customise without limitations, while still giving content editors a clean, intuitive interface for managing pages, blog posts, product listings, or any other content type. It is self-hosted, so your data stays on your own infrastructure.

At Osher, we integrate Strapi into automated content workflows using our custom AI development capabilities. Common integrations include triggering content publishing workflows when editors approve new content, syncing product data between Strapi and e-commerce platforms, and connecting content updates to notification systems so downstream teams know when new material is available.

We also help organisations migrate from monolithic CMS platforms to Strapi, mapping existing content structures to Strapi’s flexible content types and building the API layer that connects to their frontend applications.
