(Like a blueprint) and the sign on the right says "Framer" and has a symbol of the brush and speed. (Like the wind blowing). The atmosphere in the picture looks serious and has to make a significant decision.

Why did the problem occur: the no-code war that was born to "Different goals"

This confusion is not good from you. But caused by both the webflow and Framer were created with a little different "philosophy". Although the exterior looks similar to a NO-Code web tool.

Webflow was born in an era when the website designer craves to change the tools to change the design to become a "clean" code and "ready to use." It is like the power of "Front-End Developer" in the hands of the Designer, based on the working principle of HTML/CSS (Box Model). Can adjust a lot of in -depth and have the most powerful CMS (Content Management System) system Suitable for creating a "extension" website and "SEO" in the long run.

, starting from being a very realistic Prototype creation tool. For the UI/UX designer, it was born to answer the question that "How to make the designed in the Figma move and actually work as soon as possible?" Until it can be developed to create the entire website. Its strengths are the ability to "Import" design directly from Figma and focus on making animations with beautiful interactives easily. It is therefore the beloved of Designer who wants to change the idea into a beautiful website. In a short time

The problem arises because of the Startup like us. "I want all"! We want a Framer speed and want to get a long -term webflow. This is the source of hesitation that makes it difficult to decide.

If left, how will it affect: just "slow website" but "Business may break"

The wrong choice or not choosing at all because he was hesitant. It's not just a waste of time, but it is a "technical debt" and "Opportunity Cost" that is forming enormous. Imagine:

• Waste of time launching (Delayed Time-to-Market): In the Startup world, whoever is faster is the winner. You don't have a website to communicate with customers or investors. Meaning that you are allowing competitors to run many steps first
• Waste of funds on what is not: If you choose Framer, but later find that the Marketing team needs powerful cms to do content marketing. You may have to pay money and time. "All new" on Webflow (or other platform), which is a financial nightmare
• Lose the opportunity to do SEO: If choosing a platform that is not fully conducive to SEO in the long run You may have to rely on the purchase of ads (PAID ADS) forever, which is an enormous cost to find new customers.
• The scale is not when the business grows: When your startup grows, want to connect more complex systems. Or create more specialized features The selected platform may become a "bottleneck" that makes you unable to continue. These problems are one of Startup errors often encounter Aoout Startup Website Mistakes and directly affecting growth.

In the end, the wrong choice was not the end of the website. But it may mean that your business "Can't continue" because your digital base is not strong enough
