Webflow Limitations

Webflow is a powerful tool, but it has certain technical and functional limitations that are important to know.

Technical Limitations

Section titled “Technical Limitations”
  • Custom code required for advanced integrations (APIs, scripts, specific widgets).
  • SEO limitations in some areas (fixed URLs for product/checkout pages).
  • Performance management: sites with heavy animations may experience slowdowns.

CMS Limitations

Section titled “CMS Limitations”
  • Maximum of 10,000 items per collection (Business plan).
  • Cannot create complex relationships (like in a relational database).
  • No advanced conditional logic without custom scripts.

E-commerce Limitations

Section titled “E-commerce Limitations”
  • No native multi-currency or multi-language support (requires third-party tools or site cloning).
  • No built-in management for subscriptions or digital product downloads (Stripe/Gumroad integrations needed).

Workflow & Collaboration

Section titled “Workflow & Collaboration”
  • No full version control like Git.
  • Real-time collaboration is less advanced than Figma.
  • HTML/CSS export possible, but no re-import back into Webflow.
Note

Webflow is ideal for creative, showcase, or small-scale e-commerce projects. For highly complex needs (SaaS, marketplaces, ERP), it must be complemented with custom code or third-party tools.
