So I’d love to know if one of you kind Webflowers could point me to a resource/discussion that talks about the limitations of Webflow ecommerce vs other options, please? Having not built an ecommerce store before but with a potential project on the horizon, I’d love to know your thoughts.
I’ve been in contact with Josh at Foxy who has been super helpful - I am probably 75% sold on Foxy already but the remaining 25% will be as a result of any conversation on this topic, and my own experimentation over the next few days.
That’s a great idea for a blog post so if you find one let me know (and I might write one if I have time!) However, this is quite a good page as your starting point maybe: https://webflow.com/vs/shopify
Make sure you get as far as the Pricing section near the bottom of the page. Since Shopify is arguably the leader in the SME ecommerce marketplace it’s a good one to compare Webflow to from a features point of view.
Now that I’m using both platforms for clients, I really want to use Webflow more to get away from themes in Shopify if nothing else as they are a royal pain (not to mention all the awesome things Webflow gives you OOTB in addition to Shopify).
The project never got off the ground unfortunately. However if you have e-commerce requirements get in touch with @foxy - Josh is super helpful and spent a lot of (wasted, unfortunately for him!) time talking me through the product. I feel really confident that it would have been a smooth onboarding process if the project had moved forwards.
