Overall Satisfaction with Webflow

Webflow is our primary tool for websites requiring more than a landing page and no direct integration with a database app like Airtable. We love its CMS features for our blog and selling digital products. It offers the perfect balance of a GUI and developer accommodations.

Pros

  • Websites focused on visuals rather than heavy technical functionality
  • Blog management
  • E-commerce for digital products

Cons

  • User management
  • Better organization of classes (styles)
  • More control of subscription sold as digital product
  • It saves loads of time for website creations
  • It's among the most affordable options for e-commerce
  • Its hosting fees are reasonable given its breadth of features
The GUI is well balanced for non-developers and developers alike. We'd love the ability to organize classes more granularly and programmatically.
Framer is for designers with no underlying knowledge of how a website works. It's more like designing a website in Figma. Webflow offers a better balance of design features and true website configurations.
