This is incredibly helpful and concise! I'm in the process of deciding to move my freelance web design business away from Wordpress (feeling very uninspired there..) to either Webflow or Framer, but this really helped me decide that Webflow is going to be the best tool to learn in the long run for any size of client site and give me no limitations to build whatever a client wants in the future. Thank you so much!
The CMS is definitely Framer’s weak point. But you can seriously expand Framer if you code, it’s built on React so you can make anything. You can even connect it to external services like AirTable. While I like Webflow it’s built on Jquery and React is just a better web technology.
Yes you can for sure expand Framer with code. My complaint with how they’ve set it up right now though is that you don’t get easy access to classes/ids (they are autogenerated) and you can’t set data attributes on elements. So even though you can extend Framer with code the UI makes it harder to target elements in your custom code. It makes it so you can’t use other no code solutions that are attribute based (like memberstack) with framer. I’m excited to see where framer evolves though and hopefully they make some updates that make it more dev friendly as well
@@bradfordjhuber it’s definitely far from perfect. I do like that I can scale up as needed. Everything in Framer I can build pretty easily in React and use Framer Motion for animation. But there is also everything in between. Maybe it’s just me but I like true component based development, like React, Svelte, Vue etc. Regular HTML, CSS and Jquery is just too much of a pain to scale up if you need to.
@@OneBrighDay Framer motion is a really nice library. I’m excited to see how framer evolves for sure. Competition is great for all users as framer is bound to get better and webflow will be forced to get better to compete
@@bradfordjhuberthis was helpful. Thank you. I plan on extending Framer and I can see how this would be a problem. Depending on how much integration it can be quite tedious gathering class names and IDs.
Is that for all file types? For webflow images are limited to 4mb, documents to 10mb, and videos to 30mb. I that limit is pretty fair because atleast for images as long as you optimize them you shouldn’t need to get even close to that size
framer came very easy i understood the moment i logged on which was today my first time. webflow def a learning curve i haven't coded in a long time ill learn both. i can tell ill enjoy framer more because, i use figma
Yes, Framer for designers that are skilled in Figma is going to make things a lot easier. Great for sites that are small, need to be published fast, but scalability isn't a priority.
This is a very honest overview. Thank you for mentioning that there is no code export with Framer. You should acknowledge that Webflow has extensive, free educational tutorials would be my only suggestion to your otherwise complete overview.
10k site visitors is pretty low. If you are expecting that traffic, we feel like a paid plan is justified on Webflow because you should be able to monetize on that large amount of traffic.
Appreicate it! Bradford is one of the most talented and knowledgable Webflow devs out there and has built an incredible team and culture here at Amply!
Sir please can you make a video on explaining about the pricing plans of Framer. I'm confused like do i need to pay $8 for every website i make ? Or do I've to pay $8 for a month and can create unlimited number of websites in a month
We haven't found the plugin to be as valuable as we hoped. It seems to be more of a marketing play by Webflow than an actually really powerful feature.
What do you think is better in 2024? Webflow or Framer?

Glad this video could help you make that decision! Best of luck with your business🙌
Spring event for framer tomorrow. Let’s see what they have in store
What were your thoughts on the product roadmap? We like that Webflow is better heaver on B2B marketing teams

Framer scrolls in a jerky way. Smooth scrolling in webflow is the best. And the base scrolling is better right out the box.

Framer's 5mb file upload limit on the lower plans is a bit mean.
Is that for all file types? For webflow images are limited to 4mb, documents to 10mb, and videos to 30mb.
I that limit is pretty fair because atleast for images as long as you optimize them you shouldn’t need to get even close to that size
Put ur file in Figma then use the html figma to framer pugin and ur asset is in framer
@@A7_777would you be able to elaborate and explain in detail the process please

Great point, Jon! Webflow University and other resources make the learning curve to Webflow much more manageable (and fun)!
The Wix Studio editor is too slow and laggy for being used professionally.
I wanna build a landing page but framer’s 10k website visitors seems less as compared to webflow..
Which one should I go with?

Great video!!
Thanks Susana! We tried to make a video that gave an honest breakdown. Glad you enjoyed it!
6:10 why did he say webflow better for "more robust" and "more traffic"?. we need a better hosting service for handling more traffic right?
I assume bandwidth is one of the things he means

I'm confused like do i need to pay $8 for every website i make ?
Or do I've to pay $8 for a month and can create unlimited number of websites in a month
i think its per site
What is the future of framer.
We'll see, they are shipping updates really quickly so it's going to keep getting better.
Webflow Figma plugin...

Both are waste of time, wake up ai is useless
