designing in shopify makes me want to tear my hair out, if these two platforms were able to have a baby it would be perfect
I don't know why Shopify doesn't allow to design more freely!
What part makes you want to tear your hair out?
The back and forth format is a good idea!
Agreed, been hoping for a long time some experts would make a vid in this exact format! I feel a lot more confident exploring both platforms now!
Webflow not offering iDeal payments via Stripe here in the Netherlands is painful. It's frustrating to have spent time to learn and advocate their tech, but then not being listened to for years.
This is the perfect video at the perfect time... love it when that happens :) Thanks guys!
Great in depth comparison! :D
Very well laid out guys. I reallly enjoyed this video. I wish to see more videos on the e-commerace side of things with webflow & also integration with Shippo or Shipstation or anyothers. Would be nice to see a live functionality of webflows e-commerace. Again, great content!
With that said, I wish there was a live community similar to editor x's community on discord. Where they have people building live & sharing ideas through discords video capabilities.
Best analysis I have ever seen
So helpful, thank you!
It was very interesting, thanks!
is there a way to directly show your shopify page within an existing webflow site, which has its own URL. Idk if it makes a difference but in my case, the site is not hosted on webflow, but bluehost.
Shopify just doesn’t have the same customisable features that webflow has. Even making a custom header on shopify is an absolute nightmare, especially if you really want to show your brand with the website.
the checkout limitations of webflow make it really dangerous, you may lose a lot of orders with a bad checkout process
What are the limitations? I’m thinking of moving my online store from Shopify to Webflow
@@YouSuck921 basically their payment system isn’t accessible to people all around the world like Shopify Wix is also the same way all are good platforms but Shopify is ahead of them all in the e-commerce department as far as currencies and transactions to other countries but Webflow and WIX have better Website design than Shopify
yall have no idea what ur talking ab you can integrate literally any payment system you want into webflow. you can make webflow into anything you want with any open source code @@redhunnid5142
In such scenario where client needs a custom build website but they also want to make as shopify ecom store. Then where should we start? should we start with webflow Ecommerce and build a custom website and then integrate with shopify hosted with the webflow? Or should we start with Shopify Ecom templete? Can you make a video on the full process from start to end?
thanks! i need the video
*Did I hear a single word on ecommerce tech . . . ?*
Backend language and framework used?
Performance?
Third-party libraries or packages?
User communities for support?
Stability and reliability?
Scalability?
Usability by non-tech employees of site owner?
Integrated user statistics?
Integrable with common payments platforms?
Attachability to headless front end?
Can I suggest a cheap alternative?
Build your own web store and rent a VPS or cloud server for $5 - $30 a month.
That might be cheaper monetarily for a single person team with technical know-how. Is it cheaper in terms of time, especially if you're working with a team?
@@ethanrogers9627 If every site was a one-off needing all new code components, of course not.
But maybe 90% of the backend components are common. And once the logo and page layouts are done it's going to be a job of implementing the layouts in CSS with original content text, images and video.
@@untilco I hope this response lasts on YT unlike the previous removed one.
All backend techs (e.g. Java Spring, Node.js, Django, Flask, etc) have pre-built packages or even frameworks to do all the usual stuff involved in a web store backend.
While this won't be as efficient as custom coded packages, it will be bug-free and save you a lot of time.
You'll see tutorials on backend building with all of these techs on YT or on the web generally.
where to start to learn shopify but for clients not my own site ? do you have any paid assistance for that ?
Excellent
Whats best to use for Blogging? Shopify or Webflow? I have a Webflow site that links to a Shopify Store.
Hi there! I am building a website and there will be a lot of short social stock videos, thousands. Which platform I should go with? Shopify, Webflow or Squarespace?
The sites in the links are either broken or give me malware/phishing warnings
Shopify is a no brainer for a simple store but when you have a big website (500 pages) with just as many products and need a custom site that isnt just a shop front.. webflow is the only way. I absolutely hate shopify's storefront builder because its so cookie cutter. I really wish i could easily intergrate shopify's ecommerce with webflow but the shopify buy buttons are finicky
Is there a proven way to integrate shopify into webflow? All tutorials seem to be flawed.
I'm 30 seconds in and I already have a feedback to give. First of all, thank you for making this content, it will be useful as always.
You should keep the mic as near as possible, otherwise every SFX or background song become disturbing. I should be able to listen to your voice above all, even if I'm in a loud environment without headphones. Just an heads up! Hope this is useful ❤
How many of you found the links given on video descriptions and found webflow websites load much more faster than shopify's?
Can you do a workshop for those of us who live in countries that cannot use Webflow e-commerce (Stripe doesn’t work everywhere😢)
noted!
You can use a Shopify button link that you can embed inside your Webflow page!
:) thank you
Team Webflow...
Have you heard of dukaan similar to shopify
You guys know if shopyflow is gonna happen ?
I don't know how shopify being a huge company is relevant to be a pro for the end user
Fix the links!!! They are repeated
oops. fixed! thanks
Wordpress vs Webflow ?
yikes... Webflow no question.
wow guys have some life in your voice I am getting sleepy here
guys, you both glasses are not fit at all
This is not a fair match, Shopify is so much more advanced😂
why do they look AI generated?😅
Can you not waste people time and talk faster ! Its unbearable .
Watch at 2x 😁
