Overall Satisfaction with Webflow
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.
- 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 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.
