Webflow Software Reviews

“I like it!

Pros

Webflow is proven to be a very dependable and user friendly site builder for us. Plus the drag and drop setup makes designing websites a simple task without needing to code.

Cons

I found the process of buying a domain on it a bit complicated. That said it is still easy to point a domain from other hosting providers by just changing the DNS.

“Top no-code tool for creating websites

Pros

What I really like about it is how dependable this no code tool is. It reminds me a lot of Figma which makes it perfect for web designers like me.

Cons

One thing I dislike is that you cannot collaborate on designs with someone else in real time.

“Really didn't live up to expectations

Pros

It definitely gives you lots of design freedom but one thing I have noticed is that it is not the easiest or fastest to develop with especially if you are aiming for speed.

Cons

The pricing structure is very terrible. As it is too easy to mess things up with no clear explanation and the product options feel a bit strange to me too.

“Rules the design world

Pros

What I love most is the creative freedom. Plus the backup and save options are amazing. Overall Webflow really covers more than just design.

Cons

If you are a beginner with no design experience, this is not the easiest tool to learn. I feel like it is definitely more suited to those with prior knowledge.

“Good for seasoned developers

Pros

With Webflow you are not boxed in like with other platforms as it gives so much more flexibility with design. And the thing I like the most is that they have got an awesome student plan too.

Cons

I would say it is not the most beginner friendly platform for someone looking to start a website. You will need at least basic knowledge of HTML and CSS or you will find yourself relying on tutorials. Also if you change your mind about the theme you picked, you essentially have to start over since you cannot just swap it out.

“A great content management system that's flexible and affordable

Pros

One of the things that stands out to me is that you can design, test and publish a full site without installing anything. Also it is cost-effective, everything is backed up and you can roll back changes easily. Adding custom code and integrating third party tools is also simple.

Cons

Some specific issues and features are discussed on the support forum by us but they do not seem to get enough attention to lead to actual fixes or improvements.

“This is by far the worst no-code site builder I've used

Pros

Honestly not much stands out to me. Though it is said to be SEO-friendly but for someone not very technical, it is tough to get started even though it is supposed to be no-code.

Cons

It is not user friendly and their billing system can be a real headache. I got charged for 2 seats even after I removed a team member because you have to downgrade the seats separately. Also it is unnecessarily complicated. Your seat count should just reflect the number of active users in your workspace.

“A super simple, no-code website builder!

Pros

I am quite obsessed with Webflow. It has been my main creative outlet and income stream for three years. And if you are someone who loves turning designs into websites without coding, this is the ideal tool as it is like building with design legos.

Cons

No complaints to mention from my side but I would like to give everyone a heads up that the learning curve is pretty steep.

“Highly recommend this product for anyone building an MVP

Pros

It is very very fast, performs great and packed with strong SEO features. With it I can build complex sites, add animations and still find it easy to use.

Cons

The pricing is a bit high especially for someone like me living in India. At $30 a month it is a bit on the expensive side but I am still happy to pay it.

“A great tool for non-developers

Pros

So far we have not seen any major benefits from using Webflow as it has not really clicked with our team yet.

Cons

As non web developers we have found it pretty easy to use and navigate when making changes to our site.

“Saves time

Pros

What stands out to me is how amazing the CMS is. I can style one page and the rest follow the same layout. Overall it is a huge time saver.

Cons

My least favorite thing about it is the pricing. It can get pretty expensive as you scale up. I just wish they would consider a regional pricing plan, especially for designers in countries like mine. I know they are a great company but this would be helpful.

“Help in making the best websites

Pros

The performance is top notch. I would say that in a fast paced digital world, Webflow absolutely delivers when it comes to speed.

Cons

Cost is definitely a major problem or a con I feel like. While WordPress is free, it comes with a pretty high price tag.

“An excellent product!

Pros

Webflow is our go to at https://www.webbydesign.co.nz. The design flexibility it gives us is not something we have seen from any other competing platform.

Cons

To use it properly, you really need to have a solid understanding of web design to get the most out of the platform. If I say in simple words that learning is there as it is not very easy to use.

“User-friendly tool to build a website

Pros

I have zero background in Java or HTML but I can still create full landing pages for marketing campaigns without relying too much on the dev team. Plus real time previews are a big bonus.

Cons

The templates can be a bit on the expensive side but it is not a huge issue. Also I feel like the customization options are limited.

“The top website builder out there!

Pros

Well it is the best as it makes it easy for me to create beautiful websites. Plus the interface is quite well thought out and easy to learn and use.

Cons

One thing I noticed is that the payment system needs to be clearer as for now it is a bit confusing to understand exactly what we are paying for.

“By far the best tool I have come across

Pros

We launched a feature for creators that involved building their sites and for that Webflow was proven to be the best choice for us. It has great templates, is easy to deploy and customer support has been excellent too.

Cons

The code editor can feel clumsy at first but as we spend more time with it, it gets easier to work with.

“Perfect if you are not tech-savvy!

Pros

I use Webflow for client projects and it is also great for businesses that want a reasonable site without diving into the SEO grind. It is like just drag and drop and you are done.

Cons

It does not offer many features when it comes to improving SEO for websites which is something I did not like.

“Hands down the best website builder I have used

Pros

After years of using different tools I can confidently say Webflow is the best one. It lets me build without limits, keeps things reliable and is really user-friendly.

Cons

The collections feature was pretty hard to understand at first but once I get the hang of it, it becomes a really useful tool.

“Doesn't meet SOC-2 compliance or industry security standards

Pros

Once we got everything set up making text edits and content updates has become quick and simple task.

Cons

We have been working on our Webflow site while going through a SOC-2 audit. We hit a major roadblock because SOC-2 requirements demand certain headers on our website. Webflow is blocking us from adding these required headers unless we upgrade to the enterprise lite plan for $15,000 a year. The same headers were added in minutes on our product websites to achieve A+ ratings but Webflow won't let us do that without paying an extra $15k annually. This is a major issue for SOC-2 compliance and I would not consider it truly secure or SOC-2 compliant unless you are willing to pay nearly 50 times the regular price for a basic site.

“It is way more user-friendly than WordPress

Pros

I love how you can get a template you like, customize it to fit your needs and publish your site in a day or two. It is that simple and fast.

Cons

It gets tricky when I am working with custom styles, especially when changes on one page affect others unexpectedly.
