I use Webflow for our marketing website, lead generation, brand awareness, landing pages, and more.
  • Highly customizable
  • Great integrations
  • Always improving
Cons
  • Enhance app capabilities
  • More cost effective
  • Ability to have more designer seats on lower tiered plans for smaller businesses and startups
Webflow is a great platform for businesses that want a sharp website with advanced customization capabilities and is somewhat user-friendly for non-developers to make adjustments and content edits.

We use the Webflow platform as one of our main web design and development tools. We use it to mock up MVPs, prototype interactions, and design and develop websites. The Webflow CMS allows us to create dynamic case study portfolios, team member pages, blog posts, and curate and A/B test landing pages. Webflow interactions allow us to visually design page loading and scrolling animations that boost engagement and SEO.

We can easily structure our content and HTML elements for accessibility and add meta title, meta descriptions, Open Graph images and Schema markup for both static and dynamic CMS pages in Webflow.

We have been able to add third party integrations, such as chat and CRM tools to extend Webflow's capabilities to provide real business solutions, and that includes Webflow's E-Commerce platform as well.
  • Easy to use and customize CMS.
  • Develop engaging CSS interactions and JavaScript animations visually.
  • Several competitively priced hosting tiers are available and all use AWS servers and Fastly CDN.
  • Code can be exported to be used with other CMS platforms such as WordPress, or E-Commerce platforms such as Shopify.
Cons
  • The email form system UI is highly customizable, but the delivery is very basic and limited. Third party tools such as Zapier are needed to connect to CRMs or external databases, or those tools need to provide embed code to work within Webflow.
  • The basic functionality of designing and developing in Webflow is easy to learn quickly, but advanced features and expert level experience can take a lot longer to achieve.
  • E-Commerce is very basic. It is highly customizable as far as UI/UX, but limited in scalability at the moment. Subscriptions and memberships aren't natively available at the moment.
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 has sped up our design and reiteration stages to create a more agile development environment.
  • With Webflow hosting we can provide websites that are easier to update and maintain than other platforms, while being very fast and secure.
  • Webflow eCommerce is a good alternative to other platforms where a high level of customization is required in the design, and product catalog needs are basic.
Compared to other closed platforms like Squarespace or Shopify, Webflow is much more developer friendly and customizable. The CMS is easier to use and much more flexible to design and develop in. Price points between the 3 are similar. Most of the 3rd party integrations for digital marketing; like MailChimp or HubSpot CRM, are also available on Webflow.

Open platforms like WordPress seem cheaper in comparison, but when comparing the same levels of security, backups, server speed and CDNs, the hosts that use AWS and Fastly are priced relatively the same as Webflow, and Webflow doesn't have the issues of plugin compatibility and maintenance.
Webflow is very easy for a beginner to get started with and achieve good results, but to achieve an expert level of understanding requires experience and some web development knowledge. HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript knowledge aren't required to use Webflow, but an expert will know BEM class naming patterns, be able to create reusable elements and design systems, and add 3rd party integrations that require custom code.
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.

It's a great tool for creating and hosting websites and landing pages for all kinds of companies.
  • Super intuitive
  • A ton of customization features
  • Clonable projects directory, which allows to reuse other people's code and unbelievably fast load speeds
  • There are additional export code capabilities which allow to reuse the code for different platforms
  • Landing pages
  • Static websites and blogs
  • Support of cutting-edge technologies, like Lottie animations, which provide even beginning users with opportunities to create super advanced designs
Cons
  • The limit of 100 static pages is a little bit annoying. You can add more "dynamic pages," which rely on one template, like Blogpages, but you are limited to 100 custom landing pages.
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.

  • Dramatically improves the speed of developing landing pages
  • Super intuitive even for less tech savvy users, which allows them to customize the needed blocks without requiring dev support
  • Saves $80 per month compared to unbounce or InstaPages, while having almost 99% of the important features
The code quality and speed can't even be compared to Elementor; Webflow is simply a much better tool. Instapage has a cool feature for dynamic landing pages, which changes according to Google Ads Keyword, which I miss; however, amazing webflow community members recreated that functionality with a custom script.

For the majority of users, it's a safer bet than WordPress in terms of speed and code quality. WordPress could provide amazing results if hosted properly (nginx, caching configuration) and requires best practices to maintain code quality. Webflow solves these issues out of the box at a fraction of cost.
