Is Webflow worth it?

For clients? Or for yourself?

A lot of my peers have been asking me this question. Is Webflow really worth it?

I think that we would need to deep dive into what is needed for you rather than trying to come up with excuses about values.

Even though I am confident that Webflow allows and caters to multiple types of users, I just need to focus on the main type of users which is The Webflow Designer & The Client.

The Webflow Designer

If you are a web designer and looking for one of the best low-code or no-code design tool, Webflow is definitely something you should look at. I, personally, have been using Webflow since 2013 and I have seen so many upgrades from their first version till now.

They have done so many upgrades over the past few years and these are some of the best ones that I think propelled its popularity to the masses: -

1. CMS
2. E-Commerce
3. Localization

Although there are still some missing pieces that us designers have been asking for, these upgrades are enough for you to start creating websites for both you and your clients. And don't forget their Webflow University - The constant updates have been tremendous so far and it has definitely helped us to create websites with ease.

The Client

You. Yes, you!

For Startups

What do startups need? Creating that first online presence.

• How Webflow helps startups. Creating multiple landing pages for your new founded startup has never been easier. You do not need to rely on your development team to design, develop and publish anymore. Working in collaboration with your marketing team and the design team is enough to propel your business further.
• Saving Costs. Webflow has been known to help startups reduce costs and time wastage solely because of its efficiency in creating pages.
• Potential to Scale. With its tiered pricing, startups can choose to start with the lowest tier to minimize costs.

For SMEs & MNCs

I've been serving a lot of companies that are moving over to Webflow when they are doing a fresh rebrand or thinking of an upgrade from their Wordpress portal.

Most of the common issues faced by these companies are

• Wordpress plugins are not updated
• Developers are no longer available to help update/upgrade the system
• Old-school design needs a new facelift

So if you're looking for a facelift for your website, do not hesitate to talk to us to give you some good advice and a site audit. It's on us!

Conclusion

One of the few areas that clients usually compare is pricing.

Now to us, the value of what Webflow is able to give you in the long run is so much more.

• No longer require to scramble to find the cheapest website developer.
• Waiting a few weeks just to complete design, development and publishing content.

But overall, we would also like to say that if Webflow is something that you are not looking for, there are many other website builders that might have a solution for you.
