Webflow Reviews & Product Details

Webflow has become faster and reliable. The new interface feels cleaner. I love the CMS being more stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still seems heavy on the pricing part as I'm a regular user I need to upgrade for every website plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although it takes a lot of time to master Webflow, or even feel comfortable in the program, once you get your bearings, it feels great to hop into a project and just start building Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are still a few bugs from time to time that annoy me. For instance every so often, you'll be unable to click into text to edit and will have to refresh the browser. Also the way webflow exports code can be a bit messier than I prefer, so we tend to clean up the code exports once we pull them into VSCODE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The freedom in Webflow is unmatched. You can change or adjust anything and find custom builds on their community pages. If you've ever felt limited by what other builders can do, or their adherence to templates, this is the site for your site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The trade-off for the crazy freedom and customization you can do with Webflow, is the learning curve. Take a deep breath, expect to spend time looking things up, and keeping a tab open on Webflow University, and try to enjoy learning a new software (as much as one can) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a great alternative to WordPress for creating robust websites. It offers a solid option for those looking to build strong and reliable sites without relying on WordPress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find that some options are rather limited, particularly when it comes to collections and integrations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Webflow makes it easy for me to stay involved in the web design process, even though I am not the one building the pages. I work alongside a Webflow designer, and the platform lets me review progress, give clear feedback, and make small text or content changes without worrying about breaking anything. It strikes a great balance between technical execution and creative ideas, allowing me to focus on messaging, structure, and brand alignment while my designer handles the complex building work.

The interface is clean and intuitive, so it is simple for someone without a technical background to navigate. I also appreciate how quickly we can make updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike is the lack of additional in-platform guidance such as tooltips or contextual help popups. While Webflow is generally intuitive once you become familiar with it, it is still a complex software with a steep learning curve for new users. Certain features and settings can feel overwhelming without immediate, accessible explanations. Although there is a help center and community resources, having more built-in prompts, interactive tutorials, or quick-reference guides within the editor itself would make onboarding smoother. This would be especially helpful for those who do not work in Webflow daily but still need to navigate it efficiently for reviews, updates, or light edits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Why We Use Webflow at BAW Creative

We build custom websites for brands that care about results.

Other platforms slowed us down.

Templates were too limiting.

Plugins caused delays.

Developers had to step in for simple changes.

Clients struggled to edit things on their own.

Webflow fixed all that.

We first used it years ago. Even then, it gave us more control.

Now it’s a core part of how we work.

Why it works for us

We design exactly what we want. No hacks or workarounds.

We build fast. Our designers don’t have to wait on devs.

Sites perform well. That helps our SEO and ad campaigns.

Clients can update pages without needing help.

We use Webflow for:

B2B lead-gen sites

Campaign landing pages

Brand websites with a strong visual identity

CMS-based blogs and content hubs

If a client wants full control after launch, Webflow is our go-to.

It also works well alongside our SEO and PPC services. Fast builds mean quicker testing and faster results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sadly, the ecom side of Webflow isn't great... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AI-powered site building & code generation, and next-gen CMS & better data handling, and support for custom code / React components + hybrid no-code + code approach Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited plugin/third-party ecosystem compared to more established platforms, and features for complex / enterprise-scale projects are limited Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Webflow is one of the fastest platforms for developing websites. Even though it’s fast, it’s also very powerful, offering everything from custom interactions and animations to complex CMS development. Webflow makes website development easy and fun. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The downside to using Webflow is the learning curve involved in understanding everything you can do on the platform. There is so much to explore that it could take a while to get up to speed on all the features. However, if you are already familiar with website development in general, the learning curve may be shorter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Webflow feels like a digital playground once you're in the groove. The customization options are next-level—widgets, collections, and the ability to add custom code and fields give us full creative control. Plus, the library of support articles and videos is chef's kiss 👩‍🍳—most problems we've faced had a helpful tutorial one Google search away. We made the switch from WordPress two years ago and haven’t looked back (well, maybe glanced back... more on that in a sec).

Bottom Line: Webflow is powerful—but it’s not for the faint of heart (or the faint of tech-savviness). If you’ve got design resources or time to learn, it’s worth it. If not, expect to lean heavily on tutorials and external help. Just don’t skip the caramel macchiato while you debug your blog anchors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Let’s talk about the elephant in the backend: the learning curve. It’s steep. And if you’re not a web designer (spoiler: I’m not), it can be intimidating. We often have to bring in outside help just to fix minor code tweaks or layout issues, and that adds up—both in dollars and in time. The backend vs. Designer UI is pretty siloed, so things like redirects feel buried. I also wish there was a Webflow-native version of Jetpack that could proactively monitor for issues like 404s or timeouts. Right now, unless a customer flags something, we don’t know it’s broken. That’s... not ideal.

Webflow gives us full control over our website’s look and functionality without relying on templated restrictions. It allows us to showcase our brand in a more personalized and engaging way. The support documentation also enables some self-sufficiency, which is a win for small marketing teams who like to move fast and fix things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Webflow has become the ‘secret weapon’ for our design & marketing squads at Hakim Group. It gives us great visual control and a rock-solid CMS in one place, so our studio team can spin-up beautiful, accessible practice sites in days instead of weeks. The built-in hosting, SSL, backups and performance optimisation mean we no longer juggle plug-ins or chase dev-ops tickets, and the native SEO tools have helped several of our optometry sites jump onto page-one in Google. Best of all, once a site is live our marketing execs can tweak copy, launch landing pages or A/B-test a new promotion without ever opening a ticket—freeing our engineers for higher-value work.

No platform is perfect. The learning curve for the more advanced interactions is steeper than some ‘drag-and-drop’ tools, so new hires need a few sessions before they’re fully productive. Version control is improving but still lacks true Git-style branch workflows, which makes large-scale collaborative builds a bit challenging. Finally, multi-language and native e-commerce features are good, yet not as flexible as specialist platforms—meaning we occasionally rely on third-party integrations. None of these are deal-breakers, but they’re worth knowing upfront. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
