Webflow Erfahrungen

My work portfolio...

Kommentare: I enjoyed using webflow for 3 years, in the end I found another website that was closer to my needs and what I was looking for, but I will continue to recommend it to friends, clients or anyone who wants to start a business or show their work in an easy and fast way.

Vorteile:

I made my portfolio with Webflow, because I like how you can make your own website, you don't need to know how to code, it's very easy, I never had any problems with it, I recommended it to many of my clients for branding, I really liked it. It has lots of resources that you can use in your own ways, you can add your own fonts, that was something I really wanted to have on the site. I like the fact that the free option gives you so many options and allows you to edit it to the max as much as you want to. It's a good site for the beginner as well as the professional.

Nachteile:

This is my thing, but I just didn't like the fact that the name of my website was too long, at that time I didn't have much material, so I had no reason to pay for a domain, but other than that, I don't see anything negative, it's something that can be changed and that doesn't have to be a big inconvenience to have.

Webflow is powerful software

Kommentare: Webflow allows us to have a really sophisticated website without a staff of web developers.

Vorteile:

Webflow has everything we need to build our 100-page website that includes news, donation pages, staff contact info, descriptions of twenty programs, event descriptions and registration pages, document repositories for our board members, and everything else. The software is continuously updated, so even though parts of the site are five years old, we always have the tools to keep the site looking current. The tutorial videos are engaging, and the customer service is excellent.

Nachteile:

This is really powerful software that would be put to best use by a staff trained in web building. We are not that staff. We are people trained in telling stories with words and pictures who need to put our stories on the internet. For us, the learning curve has been very steep, even though the Webflow learning resources are excellent. But that's the trade-off we've made in order to have this tool that let's use do anything we can think of doing.

Bad support and bugs

Kommentare: In two adjectives: BAD and ANNOYING, I regret it.

Vorteile:

In the beginning, I thought Webflow would really be the tool to help me solve the problems I was hoping to solve, but not, they created new ones that this time, without a website developer around one can't fix it. Then you ask for support help and the answer you get is "it seems you are asking for web development services, we don't offer that, please ask for help in the community". This has happened to me endless times in the last 2 years with LEGIT questions on bugs I found in this tool. I do NOT recommend that you use it or switch from WordPress or something else thinking you are really going to get the next level here, because you are not. I hope this feedback doesn't get canceled or blocked because it is real and can help other people to make their decision.

Nachteile:

Bad support No support for multiple languages Limit to 100 pages (then everything crashes) Bugs!!!!

If you're looking for something more special this is the tool for you

Kommentare: Pretty good, prices a little too high but many times you will feel it's worth it

Vorteile:

The learning curve is pretty high but then you can do some nice web pages with it

Nachteile:

Not easy to learn if you're not a developer so you're not familiar with certain things

Webflow is a powerful and flexible website creation tool.

Kommentare: Webflow is a top-notch website builder since it offers a wide variety of tools and resources to its users. It is perfect for both new and seasoned programmers because to its user-friendliness and lack of coding requirements.

Vorteile:

Utilizing Webflow has allowed me to gain access to features that would have previously required a large time commitment, and it has also greatly accelerated the rate at which I can construct websites. Incredible tools for sharing knowledge and replicating success stories are provided by the community at large. Webflow is a crucial investment for my company.

Nachteile:

While there is some recognizable learning curve, the available learning materials are among the best available elsewhere on the web. Getting customers to adopt a "new" service they know little about is my biggest issue. Customers are often hesitant to commit to Webflow due to their lack of familiarity with the service. While the benefits usually speak for themselves, more resources to help convert customers would be welcome.

Awesome website designer software

Kommentare: This remarkable tool for designing is accompanied by a dependable hosting service, offering optimal performance and a comprehensive CMS.

Vorteile:

It's like drag-n-drop but you get all the control over the element. You can design from blank or you can start from any pre-designed templates. I use webflow on the daily basis to develop and maintain websites. It's so easy to make changes and publish them with just one click.

Nachteile:

Onde feature that I personally didn't like is, webflow doesn't have any hover interaction control on sliders. I mean if you're using a slider so on hover the slides will pause what if I don't want them to stop so that's a specific issue that I found so annoying.

The best tool for no coding websites

Kommentare: I learned webflow in a couple of weeks and it allows me to design and launch websites myself without needing a developer

Vorteile:

Webflow has templates with great design to start from. The learning curve is not too high

Nachteile:

There are some things that are not integrated and then you have to add them trough coding, not so approachable for everyone.

Complete power and customisation for building high end websites!

Kommentare: Absolutely great! You need to keep a cool head and not try to get a site done in 2 weeks without first learning the system.

Vorteile:

Complete control over the brand, design, user journey and experience with no need for development!

Nachteile:

It has taken 2-3 months of learning to get up to speed. It's a powerful system and needs time to learn. PS - I have no coding experience!

Webflow

Kommentare: The visual editor is intuitive and easy to use, even for those without coding experience, and it gives me complete control over the look and feel of my designs. Webflow also offers a great selection of templates and components, which can save me a lot of time and effort. Overall, I'm very impressed with Webflow and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to create beautiful and professional-looking websites.

Vorteile:

What I like most about Webflow is its intuitive visual interface, which makes it easy to drag and drop elements to create the look and feel of your site without having to write any code. This makes it a great option for designers who want to have more control over the design process without having to learn a lot of code.

Nachteile:

Limitations in terms of design flexibility can be frustrating at times.

Cool results, but hard to buil

Kommentare: Kinda good, especially when I’m not the one working on it but just enjoying the results

Vorteile:

You can really create or pay someone to create an amazing website with lots of designs and impactful graphics and aspects

Nachteile:

Really complex logics, especially if you come from elementor or instapAge like builders which are much more flexible and easy to use

Build quick websites with advanced functionality

Kommentare: i was looking for a site builder which would be open enough to let us setup custom styled components and tweak prebuilt templates to our needs. And that it what Webflow has given us. Using a template as a starting point and building up from there.

Vorteile:

The possibility of adding custom functionality into the current and prebuilt templates makes using Webflow super cool. Most of the common parameters of a website can be modified only using menues and dgra-and-drop features. But that is not where it ends. You can add own scripts and classes if needed to really make the site shine and BE different from other website builders.

Nachteile:

The bulkyness of the interface is sometimes slowing you down and if you want to create a really simple site there are too many parameters to set. A simple one-pager turns into a day of work at the end. Because almost everything can be edited. Also image manipulation and optimisation is not the best. Repositioning an image in the background can turn into a nightmare + add the mobile and tablet breakpoints and it can be easier to code the site from scratch.

Webflow is a niche product - the enthusiast's ultimate tool to making a visually stunning website

Kommentare: In my opinion, after 2+ years of using it (which I've now switched back to Wordpress for practicality), it really is a tool for web design enthusiasts. If you are an artist, musician, or design websites for that type of crowd, I think Webflow is the ideal tool for you because of how unique and capable it is for visual design. But for the majority of web designers and developers, you may find Webflow's workflow cumbersome and sometimes impractical for most client projects.

Vorteile:

You can design some truly beautiful and unique websites in Webflow. There's no other software that has as many features and ability to completely control the design of your website other than Webflow. No coding needed, at all. There is a learning curve but the tutorial videos they offer are second to none. Hands down, the best tutorial series I've ever seen - you'll know why when you start watching. You will find that website animations are simple to implement and can be as complex as you need them to be. Here is my best description of Webflow - limitless when it comes to visual design.

Nachteile:

Unfortunately, Webflow is not really practical for most professional web designers and developers. There are several serious reasons why I advise against using Webflow when building websites for other businesses. First off, most people have heard of Wordpress, but not Webflow, so selling a business on using the software is difficult. It can be hard to find outside developers and designers able to work in the system, whereas you can easily hire someone to work in Wordpress. Second off, it is expensive to host a website natively in Webflow (though this feature works great), yet it is impractical to just use the export feature. You lose the CMS/blog, ecommerce, and search abilities if you choose to pass on Webflow hosting. Lastly, it is not well suited for complex, large websites and is not suited at all for any specialized backend software. Worse yet, it is too complex to work with for simple sites.

The top tool for no code websites

Kommentare: I really enjoy using Webflow as often as I can, it is a great product that fits many types of use cases and I will continue using it in the future for my projects.

Vorteile:

Webflow gives you the flexibility to do more or less anything you could ever want in a website, without having to code. It is infinitely customisable and once you understand how it works, is an extremely powerful tool for creating low to medium complexity websites. There is a whole community using the product, which makes it very easy to find answers to problems that may arise. It is also great because there are people creating specific libraries and components specifically for webflow, so it is a great way to fast track web design. It is a great option for a quick website, as well as long term pages that you may want to build. The CMS makes it an extremely powerful tool too, which makes the possibilities for creation endless.

Nachteile:

The learning curve of the software can be a little challenging at times, especially if you are a non-technical user. I personally started with quite good knowledge of HTML and CSS, so it wasn't super difficult to learn, however there are some quirks that are made for the average user that may make it a little confusing for people with existing knowledge of web design.

Great for clients to self manage

Kommentare: Very happy with it. We built over a dozen websites on this and the clients have been happy as well.

Vorteile:

Webflow is pretty amazing. I believe this is the best platform I've come across for building a website for a client to self manage. You can build on a developer end and have them make edits on the client/editor side. I really like the collection building on the back end.

Nachteile:

I didn't love that you can't chose different captcha options or change the size of it. Also, the editing options are sometimes limited when setting up a blog.

Great for designing websites, lacks in e-commerce functions

Kommentare: The single best website design tool I have ever used. Ahead of its time when it comes to website design, boasting some great features that all designers in a no-code space will love to make use of!

Vorteile:

Webflow is one of the best website designing tools on the market. Its ability to enable founders to design great front-facing websites is nothing short of spectacular! An excellent tool that enables designers to build fantastic websites!

Nachteile:

Webflow lacks in its ability to support core e-commerce functions. Its ability to enable users to design great websites puts platforms like Wix and Magento to shame but its ability to enable worldwide selling still has a long way to come. I also felt a disconnect between Webflow's website design tools and its hosting functions. Shopify and Krepling boast better functions in this arena. That being said nothing comes close to Webflow in terms of designing great websites!

The most customizable no-code site builder platform for digital professionals

Kommentare: This is one of the best site and landing page builders out there. Although there is a slow learning curve, some drawbacks on the SEO side and heavy UX, overall i am happy with the service. I will continue to be their client, until something better comes up. So far, i don't see any serious competitor in the field of the website and landing pages builders for proffessionals. P.S. This software is almost impossible to use for a beginner. It's strictly targeted towards digital professionals with at least 1-2 years experience/

Vorteile:

- The sandbox-like environment. - The code exporting - that was what got me on board. - Webflow university - most of the problems one faces, could be found in their "University".

Nachteile:

- Very long learning curve for people who don't know HTML and CSS - Not that much SEO friendly. The process of SEO optimization is slow and you really have to know what you are doing. Other platforms have made this much easier.

A Superb All-In-One Service For Design, Hosting, Blogging and E-Commerce

Kommentare: My creativity is off the charts. Yes, seriously. I no longer feel limited in my designs and that's worth every penny they charge, and for all they offer in their paid plans - it's a no brainer.

Vorteile:

Oh my, where to start! I've been a designer for over 12 years and I've been looking for a more intuitive way of design and expressing my creativity online. I've mostly used Wordpress but was getting tired of the same 'ol, same 'ol, if you will. Websites were all starting to look the same, in other words... boring. I came across Webflow a couple months ago and let's just say, I'm in total love! I'm not quite a developer yet so having software like Webflow gives me the freedom and flexibility to still be creative and push out hyper-functional websites that actually work and look good. The code is super clean and export-able, sites are responsive - with the ability to manage/rearrange/save content for each device - and customization is top notch. Their video tutorials (and PixelGeek on YouTube - he's the coolest!) and knowledge center offer in-depth guidance and help, which is a blessing. I also appreciate the fact that I can host with Webflow as well. At this point in my career, I want everything as streamlined as possible and Webflow makes it easy and secure.

Nachteile:

The free plan is limited but understandbly so. It's not for the faint of heart either. You have to want to learn a new method and process in order to make it work for you, especially if you're not much of a developer or deep digger (as I call it) of code. Their pricing, while very much worth it, needs an overhaul from their marketing department. It's difficult to understand what's needed. For instance, you need a Site plan as well as an Account plan, but that's not made very clear. I actually had to find the answer in their forum. For instance, if you want to host/create/manage 3 websites, you'll need 1 Account plan and 3 site plans.

Webflow: A game-changing website design platform

Kommentare: I have been extremely satisfied with my experience using Webflow for my website design needs. The platform has exceeded my expectations in terms of its capabilities and user-friendliness. It has allowed me to create professional-quality websites quickly and efficiently, and I have received numerous compliments on the designs I have created.

Vorteile:

I have been blown away by the capabilities of Webflow as a website design platform. The drag-and-drop editor is intuitive and makes it easy for me to create professional-looking websites without any coding knowledge. I also love the ability to design and customize my own templates and elements, which has saved me a lot of time and effort.

Nachteile:

One potential con of Webflow is that it does have a bit of a learning curve. While the platform is easy to use overall, there are a lot of features and functions to master, and it can take some time to become proficient. However, Webflow does offer a variety of resources, including video tutorials and a helpful community forum, to help users get up to speed.

Really cool and different website platform

Kommentare: I've loved learning and using Webflow. I have deep experience in Wordpress and Squarespace, and moderate experience with Shopify, Wix and Weebly, and Webflow has been a completely different experience. I love how much you can do with it. They also have an awesome resource library to answer basically any question you could ever think up.

Vorteile:

I love how customizable Webflow is, and how you can configure it to work for both technical and non-technical users. You can do so much without knowing any code, but you can also create endless customizations if you do know how to code. It's been a best of both worlds for our team.

Nachteile:

The high point is also the low point -- we worked with a design agency to create our Webflow site, which created some gaps once we took control of the platform. It's so customizable that the daily users really need to be a part of the basic building blocks of the site from the very beginning, or you'll find yourself up against questions you can't easily answer unless you have an existing knowledge of how Webflow works. It's user-friendly for non-coders, but it is also too easy to mess with if you don't know what you're doing!

The best no-code solution for Web Development

Vorteile:

- Layout of the web editor is simple and easy to use. - Webflow support is always there to help if you need it. - High speed servers makes the website load time a lot faster then hosting it on external servers with wordpress.

Nachteile:

- Lack of integerations available as it's still fairly new product compared to competitors like Wordpress.

Webflow is a web designer's holy grail

Kommentare: My web design company can afford to support smaller businesses and non-profits, because our overhead is MUCH lower, now that we don't need to hire a development team.

Vorteile:

Webflow has been a game changer. It allows you to develop a website in a visual way. Unlike Squarespace and Wix and the like, it's not a web builder. You actually use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build the website. For designers, it's crucial, because you can design websites and forego hiring a developer to code it. Truly, Webflow has impressive functionality, and they're always improving.

Nachteile:

I wish Webflow had the functionality for native e-commerce. Multiple languages, native forums, and chat functionality would also be nice. While you can integrate all of these features from external plug-ins, it would make the development process much smoother if these functions were native.

The future of website creation

Kommentare: So far so good. Haven’t had the site live yet but the creation process is pretty straight forward.

Vorteile:

How custom you can make your site. How fast it loads. How professional it looks. Two clean way to edit your site

Nachteile:

Has a learning curve but an AMAZING tutorial. I swear the tutorial is one of the best I’ve seen in the tech business. They are funny but yet informative. Usually you dread watching those videos but man they are awesome.

Core to our business and marketing efforts

Kommentare: Overall I love it and love finding other orgs that use webflow to help us get inspiration.

Vorteile:

Super easy to build and manage things, even if you are not a technical person.

Nachteile:

There are a few things that impact load time and the published vs. drafted pages would ideally have a better option to not publish all changes made.

Great website builder with a huge range of possibilities

Kommentare: Overall experience is very good, in fact I really enjoy working with Webflow as it is a very good solution for 95% of every usecase. The Webflow API is great and makes it easy to connect other services to the platform.

Vorteile:

With Webflow you gain full design control without the need to code the page. The results are as good as your design skills and when you set up everything right, the site loading speed is very fast due to clean code that is generated.

Nachteile:

Some features in ecommerce are not implemented which makes Webflow hard to implement in some cases (manual taxation in e-commerce, GDPR compliance)

Best software to build your website

Kommentare: it has been awesome, since i discovered webflow i haven't stopped using it for my websites.

Vorteile:

Webflow is simply the future. Goodbye to old days of Wordpress, this software gives you everything and more with the simplicity of the drag and drop system and the good thing that you can add infinite programming features if you want

Nachteile:

I really like everything, even the price is low and the server supports thousand of visits per second without crashing. Just grat
