Webflow

In my opinion WebFlow is the go to solution for freelancers and agencies that needs to create professional landing pages and websites in a timely manner because WebFlow is super easy to use once you get to hang of it and it doesn't require any coding to build the desired pages/websites, and it's also the perfect solution for blogs that are easy to maintain.

Webflow is great for designing pages and creating a really nice looking website, without needing to be a pro designer. However, trying to scale a company blog for SEO leaves a lot of room for desire. There are various SEO-related shortcomings (like how canonical tags are added to pages) and I also need to add a lot of custom code elements to blog posts to get the desired control. This means adding new posts and getting them looking the way we want takes way more time than it should do. Also doesn't support next-gen images, which is impacting our page speed scores and leaving us behind when it comes to Core Web Vitals update. Finally, the fact that only one person can enter the designer at one time is really annoying. I get that the Editor should be the solution to this, but it's so so so slow and jumpy that this is essentially unusable.

The possibilities with Webflow are pretty much limitless if you are willing to research how the platform handles different things you want to do. It has a ton of integration options and depending on the setup has e-commerce and CMS functionality. The only issue we ran into was some features require a hosting plan to function correctly - we had some issues trying to get certain features to work once we exported code and uploaded to our servers.

One of the best tools on the market for building and hosting highly custom websites. While it lacks some nice-to-have features for landing pages (like A/B testing), it can be easily used as a main landing page builder for smaller companies, given it's only $16 per month.

It will depend on the case user. It works for 90% of people but I would probably mention it to small businesses only.

Webflow is well suited for creating landing pages for SaaS products, professional service portfolios and marketing websites. The CMS can create highly customized and engaging interactive blog posts, case studies, and brochure pages. Webflow is limited to 100 static pages, so on sites that require a lot of content it is best practice to generate most of them through the CMS, which can host 30 separate collections and 10,000 dynamic pages.

The Webflow eCommerce platform is best suited for small boutique sites that need a highly customized UI, but have limited products. For subscriptions or more than 50 products and variants a more robust solution is probably a better choice. A few CRM and digital marketing tools are easily integrated into Webflow, and are necessary for large projects because the email form system is very basic.

Webflow provides great support. There are several active and moderated Facebook user groups, Webflow has an online forum where questions are answered and the Webflow University for beginner and intermediate level training. Direct support is quick and attentive. There are a number of Webflow experts providing tutorials on YouTube. Webflow also has a global community that hosts monthly virtual events. The community is very diverse and accessible and willing to freely share knowledge.

I haven't had to engage them from a support perspective; however, there is a considerable user community for tips/ideas/troubleshooting and the like. I believe the Pro plan supports additional resources but we didn't find that the cost justified the outcome. Overall the need for support has been relatively minor.

Generally a good product, seriously let down by primitive approach to customer support.

We pay hundreds of dollars a month to Webflow, yet their support is worse than a typical free SaaS product. We were prevented from deploying changes to our site because of how Webflow structures its support. It delayed a product launch for the whole company. Support options? Beg for help on community forums, it took a threat to email the CEO to finally get movement.

If there were easy alternatives, we would switch. But for now we just pray nothing breaks and that we don't need to interact with Webflow support.
