Powerful CMS — beautiful, complex websites with no coding
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Webflow for about a year — we needed a CMS that our designer and I could use to build a relatively complex website, with minimal demand on our front-end devs. Webflow fit the bill — and let us do more than we thought possible, with way less effort. Their dynamic content ("Collections") lets you create complex assets (text, media, sort orders, images, background colors, etc.) that can be used throughout the site. We built a 75-page website in a matter of a couple weeks.
Some things I like:
- Ability to build beautiful sites with relatively little design experience and almost no coding experience
- So so easy to manage responsive design for each device
- Baked-in SEO features (dynamic meta and open graph tags, easy 301 redirects, autogenerated sitemap, easily defined robots.txt file)
- Their Collections feature — makes it easy to create complex sets of information and media (like blog posts, employee profiles, product features), and use it dynamically anywhere on the site, or build templated pages for it.
- Fast customer support with a paid/priority account, and a super-helpful community forum
- Rapid product development and response to wish-listed features

What do you dislike about the product?
- Some issues with things that impact site speed (render-blocking CSS and JavaScript that are part of the product, and can't be fixed)
- Lack of integrations makes things harder if you're a B2B website
- Their SSL/https hosting doesn't work with all DNS providers
- Occasionally, we'll run into other technological inflexibilities that make things hard

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Webflow, we were able to build a beautiful, responsive site in minimum time, and with minimal help from our engineering team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For independent web designers — OMG get this. They provide a lot of handy features for designers working with clients (billing through Webflow, content editor permissions for non-designers, full site export into clean, beautiful code).
For businesses, make sure your business needs are completely thought out, and that Webflow will support them. We've hit a few bumps, but ultimately love it.

Freedom to create the UX I need without coding
What do you like best about the product?
The tutorials, forum, css tools and dynamic content.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of integrations with their forms (google forms or mailchimp) and they didn't create a manual with all the buttons descriptions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I created a great website for my startup without coding! I receive lots of compliments from customers and I'm improving constantly the UX.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you don't like to code but are open learning how to operate a new set of tools, this is the right choice.
Webflow title goes here in this title spot
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy all of the pretty colors on the platform. It is really pretty.
What do you dislike about the product?
Absolutely no complaints. Additionally, Webflow keeps their innovation cycle continuously moving, providing updates in a timely manner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
UX, Design, and some front-end dev now work within the same platform. Before, we had 4 or 5 different platforms being used by different teams. Now, we are working and learning from the same tool.
On top of that, we're now displaying digital work as we should - live, in interactive form. Previously, we were walking clients through PDF's. Now, we are showing fully responsive designs, live, in-browser.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to lift your design for digital experiences and how you present work, this is the tool.
Quick Prototyping and Clean Code
What do you like best about the product?
WebFlow is an awesome tool whether you have limited knowledge of code, are just starting out, or need to quickly create a polished prototype to share with a client. My favorite part is you can quickly create mockups and prototypes in low or high fidelity. It was also a very pleasant surprise that you can identify animations and interactions so that it is a realistic prototype, not just a clickthrough like you have with InVision.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a learning curve. You really need to start thinking like a developer and creating structure, if you aren't already.
There isn't a set grid system that you're working on, it's already set at certain breakpoints.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
That you can very easily to get to a prototype and better share your designs with a realistic prototype.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's definitely a step up from InVision where you can be more hands-on and feel as if you are designing in browser.
The future of web development / prototyping
What do you like best about the product?
I love the responsive capabilities, clean semantic code exports and as a whole constantly evolving with a great support network.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a lot I dislike but I would love to see a native analytic dashboard and instead of having to buy full templates perhaps using micro-payments to buy individual page of templates. ( Just a thought haha )
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating landing pages and prototypes for enterprise software and creating websites for small businesses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Like any product, research and test before implementing all efforts into the project. Unfamiliarity in a product can hurt any process. If your a designer, I recommend you dive right in and start learning as this product will help you understand the basics of front-end and will certainly save you some money without having to hire a developer.
