    I would recommend GraphCMS to anyone who is also using Gatsby to build their website. If not, I would recommend them to consider GraphCMS but also consider other options. GraphCMS is a tool in which you are responsible to make the most out of it, but sometimes this requires more time and knowledge than a normal engineer may be able to handle. But with more time and attention, the reward of off-lifting content creation from the developers is a huge time saver in the long run.

    Plesk is well-suited for website creators who have been developing websites on a regular basis. If one is new to website development, Plesk could be a bit confusing and difficult to navigate. However, if one has experience on another type of platform, like CP (Control Panel) which is used by other web hosts out there, then it will be much easier to navigate the Plesk panel. Keep in mind there is definitely a learning curve, as Plesk really is quite different. Overall, new users will learn to love the ability to have more control over their websites.

    Pros
    Hygraph
    • GraphCMS is easy to work with from the "non-engineer" side of things.
    • GraphCMS is very flexible on what data models we can create and how those models are formed.
    • GraphCMS uses Graph API, which is easy to write (compared to older API patterns).

    • Automatically update the CMS, plugins, and templates of all your websites, depending on your CMS, all at the same time, with just a few strokes of your keyboard.
    • Enables one to set up a schedule to back up your websites, automatically, and easily download/save the backup files off-site, for safety.
    • Makes it easy for users to use a backup file to reinstall a website, with just a few strokes of the keyboard. Excellent service!

    Cons
    Hygraph
    • GraphCMS is very expensive at the enterprise level.
    • GraphCMS requires deep knowledge of the system and requires lots of time to be efficient with it (especially around creating specific data patterns/relationships).
    • Multiple times a day, the system will give us errors when attempting to save something but the errors are unclear as to what went wrong (can be irritating).

    • Interface Improvement: It is a bit hard to find specific functions
    • Additional integration with third party services would be great
    • categorization of services to make management easier

    We picked GraphCMS since it used Graph API and easily integrated it into our Gatsby website. It was also cheap (free) and easy to test out the product, making it easier to prove to our company we should pay for the product in the long run. Lastly, it seems to have a bunch of support from other developers which makes us confident will be around for a while (and we won't need to replace it anytime soon). Note: I also looked at Directus and DatoCMS but these were not options within TrustRadius

    Plesk has a much more intuitive platform that allows for customization and scalability within an organization. It has the advantage when it comes to the ability to adapt to the current state of the company and grow with it organically. There are a few limitations that would make me choose a competitor, and there is good value for the price.

    Return on Investment
    Hygraph
    • Better use of time for our engineers in the long run.
    • More control of content for people outside of the engineer team.
    • Allows people to edit the content on their own, so they don't need to wait until a developer is available to add something to the website.

    • We're spending less on server costs by having Plesk manage multiple clients on one server.
    • We're spending less on support costs as Plesk is doing all the heavy lifting for us.
