I had issues with loading time and it was easy to solve with Hygraph. It was a bit complicated to understand how to get the desired format but the documentation is now way more clear. I recommend it to anyone who need blazing speed, and version control on assets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing in particular. Maybe the onboarding on how to choose image format. I uploaded some . PNG with transparent background and the link generated was jpeg by default. I thought it was an issue on my code first... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hygraph is an outstanding headless CMS solution, particularly for users without a technical background. Its interface is highly intuitive, making content creation and management straightforward. The platform excels in its seamless integration with GraphQL, providing a robust and flexible API for developers. The ability to easily connect with other services is a significant advantage, streamlining workflows and increasing productivity. Hygraph balances powerful features with user-friendliness, making it a superior choice for both technical and non-technical teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing: The cost increases significantly as a project scales, with the free tier being suitable only for small projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The absolute best thing is the content modeling interface. As a non-developer, I can visually design the structure of our content—like a "Blog Post" has a title, author, hero image, and a set of modular blocks. It’s like building with LEGO. I don’t have to constantly bug our devs to add a new field for a "Call to Action" button; I can just do it myself in minutes. The real-time collaboration is a lifesaver. My writers and editors can be drafting and reviewing posts simultaneously without fear of overwriting each other's work. It just makes the whole content workflow smooth and predictable.

The learning curve for the powerful features can be a bit steep. Things like "Union Types" and "Components" are incredibly powerful but explaining them to a new marketing hire who's used to a simple WordPress box to type in takes some time. Also, while the free tier is generous, the jump to the first paid plan felt significant for our bootstrapped budget. We had to be sure we were all-in before making that commitment.

I really like how intuitive and flexible Hygraph is as a headless CMS. The interface is clean, easy to navigate, and allows me to manage content in multiple languages and formats without hassle. It integrates smoothly with other tools, which saves a lot of time, and the schema builder gives me full control over structuring data exactly how I need it.

The learning curve can be a little steep at the beginning, especially for users new to headless CMS platforms. Some advanced features require more documentation or hands-on testing before they feel natural. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve been using hygraph for a few projects now and this is still one of the easiest content management systems I’ve used. From model creation down to editing the features allow quick deployment and updates whilst development functionality is being built.

The api is easy and fast to use and the scheduled publishing and custom components have gone down a hit. I’ve also used the remote api schemes integration and this has saved multiple integrations per site as well as any downtime due to the caching behaviours on this.

One thing I’d like to improve on hygraph is the ability to try new features outside of paid plans. It’s hard for developers to try and test these out without having a chat with an account manager and then being tied into a limited trial. Personal time doesn’t always fit within trial windows and this is annoying Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The documentation is excellent and the same goes for the GraphQL API and the accompanying API Playground. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It feels tedious navigating through the "Content" section in Hygraph, for some reason I really don't like the UI. And it's not always clear when publishing an item if the child/parent items have also been published or need to be re-published. This made me lose quite a lot of time on multiple occasions.

As Head of IT, I’ve found Hygraph to be a highly effective and modern content platform. Its ease of use stands out—both developers and content editors were productive with minimal onboarding. The implementation process was fast and smooth, thanks to excellent documentation and a GraphQL-first approach.

Customer support has been consistently responsive and technically competent, resolving most issues within a day. We use Hygraph daily across multiple teams, and its features—from localization to role management and API flexibility—meet the demands of both content operations and scalable development.

Integration was seamless with our architecture and services like Vercel and TypeSense. Hygraph has become a core part of our stack, balancing flexibility, performance, and usability.

Overall: Reliable, scalable, and built with both dev and content teams in mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The greatest challenge for us was directly connected with usage limits. Costs can scale sharply with API operations, content entries, and user roles. We’ve had to monitor usage closely to avoid unexpected overages—especially around content models and API limits. It’s easy to hit caps on lower-tier plans, which forces earlier-than-expected upgrades. With that said Hygraph delivers great flexibility and user experience for modern content delivery, but requires careful cost management and architecture planning to scale effectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Hygraph's infrastructure that enables nimbleness and the ability to deploy code and manage different environments efficiently. The flexibility it offers is remarkable, especially with features like access control, and the ease of drafting, publishing, and deploying content. The powerful integration with Vercel enhances its functionality, making it an invaluable tool for our team. The headless CMS capability, paired with being able to code our own front end, truly empowers us to meet our business needs effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the admin panel to be a little convoluted and complex at times. Navigating through it, particularly when dealing with staging and other administrative tasks, can be challenging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A friend suggested using Hygraph for my professional website to showcase my projects because it's easy to understand, get started with, and manage the content. I have been using it for about 3 years now, and it's still working great for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have nothing negative to say about the software so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Do you know the feelings of asking a developer to update text that appears in the UI? Of course, everyone knows how hard to do that when it relies on someone else. With Hygrah you don't need a developer for updating data, a great solution for everyone like especially for non-technical ones. In my company, it saves us a lot of hours of work without talking about money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This isn't a dislike, but aiagebt could be a great feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
