Like all site builders, Webflow definitely has its limitations. So you have to decide if it fits into your process and the types of sites you are building. For my agency it has been the PERFECT fit (especially when we focus on ranking those sites with SEO), but it may not be the best for you. This video does a pretty good job showing us where Webflow can fit in to your business.

With the power of being able to manage every element of a design, comes the complexity of managing every element of the design. I'm excited to see where webflow brings this tool, I wish their service plans didn't come off like a bargain rate cell phone plan... Remember the days of all those "creative web designs" that the general population could not figure out how to navigate? I'm truly shocked that Adobe never adapted Dreamweaver to work with wordpress or a CMS natively.

Totally agree, I was excited to use Webflow with my clients because of all of the design freedom, however, most of my clients are eCommerce business or need booking capabilities like doctors or hotels, who also need login credentiale, hence Webflow is no suited for my type of customers. And I know some plugins and advanced code could make it work, it honestly, the price of Webflow plus the price of each workaround does not justifies choosing Webflow over Shopify. I wonder if a platform so limited could be sustainable in the long run.

one aspect we don't discuss about the difference between wordpress and webflow is the number of jobs for this skills available on the market. I am in east coast and I just don't see many jobs out there asking for webflow. The reason is because wordpress exists for many years already and the support they need obviously is much larger than webflow.

That's obvious, wordpress is scalable while webflow isn't, it's more like a freelance solution to sell to small businesses so if you want to start freelancing webflow is a great starting point. But if you want a developer job or you've been freelancing and starting to get bigger clients, Wordpress is the way to go

I was 99,9% convinced to make the switch from WordPress to Webflow but the absence of multilingual support really is a dealbreaker. I wanted to design a small hotel website with EN/DE/NL language support, which in WordPress can be done relatively easily through (free) plugins. Webflow’s answer for this is using Weglot, which is a paid service I cannot convince the client to pay extra for. I saw something about duplicating pages manually in Webflow but this is not a scalable solution and it undermines the SEO structure. There are no videos on KZbin yet offering the solution so Ran, there might be an opportunity here :). Cheerio!
@georgy.design
@georgy.design 3 жыл бұрын
@@stijnjasper How’s that undermines the SEO structure? As far as I know, making a subfolder is superior to subdomain in most cases, e.g. yoursite.com/en is better than en.yoursite.com because the latter is a separate page - meaning, en.yoursite.com doesn’t help with yoursite.com’s SEO. I might be wrong about it though. Let’s see what Ran brings us next on this topic. Also, I do really hate lack of native multilingual support. I don’t think it will come out anytime soon because it seems like Webflow and Weglot have some sort of an agreement, no cap. Speculations lol. Still, Webflow gives you design freedom that Wordpress doesn’t. So it really depends on the project.

Wordpress with Divi is also very easy and no-code style. I can make nearly all I want and more with small css coding... But on top of everything, also webflow, good to have Frontend Dev skills. Plus, years ago I paid for lifetime Divi plan and now I'm building my sites free of charge. With webflow, there is constant, monthly fee. It is perfectly fine to pay once you arre on the level, when you build and sell your sites on regular basis, but starting your freelancer path and building one now and then, webflow is a monthly cost...

Hi, thanks for this video. That´s what I was looking for. I have a question Should I Use a Webflow for Drink Bar Menu? The main purpose of the site is show the customer about 200 drinks, where he can filter based on his interests (for example, show me only drink with vodka and marajacue because I loved that. Or don´t show me any tequilla stuff because I hate them). That is the main purpose. The secondary purpose is make it singe page, mainly for mobile devices and use the anchnor menu, so he can easily scroll thru the menu, but main optiption should by filter. Thanks for your answer.

I think Webflow is best for designing, whether front ends or backends...if you export them into your own VPS, then all the rest is irrelevant. That's how we use it anyway...we do the design in Webflow, then export the site, and translate the html into blade templates, which is really a trivial amount of work and something we still have to do if we did the design outside of Webflow (blade is for Laravel, but you could also easily translate them to Mustache or Handlebars as well). I don't' think I would host with Webflow unless I was making a site that I anticipated would have wild fluctuations in usage...although you could host on AWS and have the same dynamic scaling. For most of our use cases, the demand is pretty predictable. Whatever the end use, Webflow is a great design aid...really speeds things up.

Ease of use for content updates: Webflow is easy to use for websites with regular content updates, such as blogs. Cons of Webflow: Not ideal for complex e-commerce websites: Webflow lacks features like user accounts, product customization, and multiple payment processors needed for advanced e-commerce websites. Not suitable for very large content websites: Webflow may not be able to handle the complexity of managing a large website with many editors. Learning curve for beginners:Webflow has a learning curve and may be difficult for beginners who are new to website building.

Webflow would be a good platform to use if you don’t want to learn to code even though you need at least some HTML and CSS knowledge. Otherwise use figma and work with front end and back end developers instead.

I agree with using webflow only for customized presentation websites, but until you do it, you will encounter a cumbersome experience for building it. To make an online store with it or even a blog, it doesn't make sense, please consider many of the negative reviews on trustpilot of customers before choosing webflow, the technical support is difficult, you might get lost the project and if you want to make an online store, let it be the simplest, better choose wordpress or shopify, 100 times better choices.

One of the main reasons I'm making a website is to have a big website with loads of products and to have users log in and store their information. I noticed you said Webflow wasn't good for this. What would be a good alternative and the best website to give me the freedom to make amazing things like Webflow but also give me that storage in user data and products? Thanks in advance.

Shopify is your best bet for this. Webflow has a limit of 500 or 1000 products you can add depending on your account tier. You need an enterprise account for unlimited products on Webflow. Shopify comes with unlimited number of products you can add regardless of your account tier.

Definitely SaaS. I also get a lot of inquiries from insurance agencies, lawyers, cybersecurity firms... really anyone who needs a marketing site like Ran said. Just depends on what they want to spend and the relationship they want to have with their web developer. I find this can really determine if webflow is the right platform for them.

I had to answer this, backend programing doesn't need UX because the clients don't see the backend. They rather need a database design or some sort of software architecture.

Two more cases when not to use webflow. 1. If create a website for a eastern european company, Webflow websites are just too slow. Better pick word press and chose a loacl hoster. 2. You live in Germany. Webflow still ist not compatible with the German DSGVO law, so you or your client might run into problems.
