Why we choose Framer over Webflow
I’ve used both Webflow and Framer extensively — and as a designer, the difference in experience is night and day.
Framer is the modern, intuitive no-code alternative to Webflow. It gives designers full creative control, faster workflows, and real-time collaboration — all without developer bottlenecks or rigid UI limitations.
Here’s why Framer wins for me:
Design freedom, not frustration. Framer’s freeform canvas feels like Figma and works like it too. You’re not stuck inside a flexbox prison. Layouts flow naturally, components are reusable, and animations don’t require a timeline editor.
Speed you can feel. Webflow often drags — slow CMS loading, click-heavy navigation, and laggy previews. Framer is lightning-fast. Everything is real-time, from editing to publishing.
True collaboration. Webflow feels like a single-player tool. Framer lets designers and marketers build together live on the same canvas — just like in Figma. No more save conflicts or handoff delays.
Built-in performance and SEO. Framer sites are optimized for speed and Core Web Vitals out of the box. SEO just works — no plugins, no hacks, no digging through menus.
Shorter learning curve. Webflow’s interface is overwhelming. In Framer, if you’ve used Figma, you’re halfway there. It’s made for creative minds, not system architects.
Predictable pricing, faster innovation. Webflow has grown more expensive — and more bloated. Framer ships updates weekly, keeps pricing simple, and listens to its community.
It’s opinionated — in a good way. Framer doesn’t try to be everything to everyone. It’s for teams that move fast, iterate freely, and don’t want to call a dev for every tweak.
