Comparisons

These are good products. They simply do not aim at the same problem: a fleet of Astro brochure sites, edited by non-technical clients, where the price per site decides the margin.

Method: every price quoted here comes from the vendor’s own pricing page, on a date stated at the top of each comparison. Every comparison also says where the other tool is the better choice. A comparison that never loses is worth nothing.

• Contentful

  Nothing between free and €300/month. Fine for one funded product, brutal for a fleet.

• Strapi

  Free to self-host, if you are willing to run it. $35/month per project if you are not.

• Sanity

  Excellent free tier, then $15 per seat. We price per site precisely so seats are free.

• Storyblok

  Great visual editing. $20/month per extra locale, which a bilingual site pays every month.

• Directus

  Free to self-host for most agencies. A data platform, not a brochure-site CMS.

• Decap, Sveltia and Keystatic

  Free and elegant. Your client inherits a GitHub account and you inherit the fleet.
