A serverless solution with good performance
Due to RBI guidelines, we're facing issues with billing in India. Credit card payments often get declined even when we try to pay from the backend. Another problem is paying 20 dollars for each new project, even under one account. This seems odd since we already pay for one project with multiple hosts. The tool should improve its support. The time zone difference causes delays in communication, which can significantly impact production websites and servers. I'd rate the platform itself higher, but they still need improvements. They need to work on their billing system and create more understandable plans that clearly show costs based on bandwidth usage. A major challenge we faced was an unexpectedly high bill of 25 lakhs for one month when we usually pay only one or two lakhs (100,000-200,000 rupees). While they showed the bandwidth usage, we lacked support on optimising or implementing changes to reduce costs.

Enhanced flexibility and design capabilities attract new clients
The best features Webflow offers are the design features, so we can build whatever we want in terms of coding, and also the ready features that are included, which we can guide easily. It's not only drag and drop, it also makes us build our own designs for example on Figma and then code the same on Webflow where it provides us more flexibility in terms of applying what we want to apply, where we didn't have these options or features in the previous platform that we were using.The flexibility Webflow has offered has helped my team apply whatever they wanted, which was important for us. This flexibility allowed us to build a better website, and it allowed our clients or prospective clients to find us easier on Google, understand from our website what we do, and reach out to us while on our previous platform that we were using, which was Wix. We were not getting any reach outs or forms filled in, but in Webflow, lots of clients reach out to us and we converted them into clients. In terms of the numbers, while we were getting zero reach outs from clients on Wix, here we got around 100 messages in these two years. While some were spam too, the important thing was people started to fill these forms and from here we converted three clients. So from zero to three converted clients minimum. The CMS in Webflow has been built by my team, and because we have the clear CMS, we can go in at the blogs as much as we want. Everything is fixed over there. The only thing that we need to do is add the right text on the CMS, and this is getting published directly on the website, which is friendly with our web design, and everything has been planned beforehand. Webflow has positively impacted my organization in terms of branding. We can really reflect what our brand is, company values, and how much we give importance to brand. The second is time efficiency in terms of moving forward quickly with the CMS and updating the content we want. With a better branding that we can reflect on Webflow, this helps us showcase more of our professional look and also our creativity. Webflow has helped me save time by allowing us to update content and launch new pages efficiently. Before, we were not giving importance to uploading case studies or blogs because it was not SEO friendly. So from nothing, we started to update regularly our case studies, build case studies, and also regularly update blogs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It provides continuous integration and continuous deployment capabilities."
"Vercel provides hands-on experience they provide for hosting services. Initially, we started with hosting, and I found it impressive that Vercel identifies even minor issues in your project that might prevent your website from being hosted correctly. For example, if there is a small problem in your front end, Vercel will notify you that your site hasn’t been hosted yet and provide the specific file and line number where the issue is occurring. It is definitely an easy tool to use. It provides clear instructions on how to handle everything, even if you're not very familiar with coding. It has a seamless integration with GitHub. We connected our private repository to Vercel, and it directly indicates any issues with the website whenever we commit code. Even if we've done all the changes and committed to the repo, Vercel lets us know about any flaws that would prevent the website from functioning fully. Once the final commit happens, Vercel gives a green tick, indicating no issues. It was a very easy and good experience, with great integration with other tools."
"I like Vercel because it is very easy to use and deploy. Unlike Firebase, which can be complex to understand, Vercel is straightforward. It also allows you to easily enable analytics, check page speed, and manage SEO meta tags. You can also share the deployment directly. The solution is also beginner-friendly."
"Vercel is easy to use and not as complex as AWS."
"It is easy to learn. If you want to deploy your site, it's easy to do."
"I like most that whatever you make in GitHub is directly linked. It does CI/CD, continuous integration and continuous deployment."
"I think the speed of the tool is good."
"Vercel is easy to use, and it has a flexible user interface."
"Webflow has positively impacted my organization in terms of branding."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in terms of error logging. It has some bugs."
"What I could feel is that it should have some work for when we commit some type of error."
"I've been using the solution for a while now, and while I haven't encountered major issues, there is room for improvement. The main problem I've noticed is with the error logs. They often lack information and only indicate that a file is missing without specifying the actual cause of the error. This makes troubleshooting difficult, as running the app locally might show the error in the console, but on Vercel, it just crashes without providing useful details."
"Initially, Vercel was great for hosting projects built with frameworks like Next.js or React.js, with NPM or Node.js as the backend. Now, they seem to be expanding into offering templates and ready-made front-end and back-end setups, making it possible to host a website without writing any code. Personally, I don't like this shift because it reduces scalability and the ability to create unique, customized experiences. Code is essential, and moving towards more user-friendly, code-free tools might limit deeper development possibilities."
"Due to RBI guidelines, we're facing issues with billing in India. Credit card payments often get declined even when we try to pay from the backend. Another problem is paying 20 dollars for each new project, even under one account. This seems odd since we already pay for one project with multiple hosts."
"The tool could have some built-in support for a wide variety of frameworks. I have seen that the tool is majorly biased towards Next.js because it is one of Vercel's products."
"I encountered an error in Vercel's routing in the React.js projects."
"Vercel fails to provide a database to its users, making it in an area where improvements are required."
"I find that Webflow could be improved, as the dashboard design could be more user-friendly in terms of colors and brands."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing depends on the size of the project."
"The tool's billing allows 200 deployments per day, but if you want to do more work with the solution, you can opt for the pro plan offered by the tool."
"Most of the product features are free, which is quite advantageous."
"If I cross the free version, I have heard from some people that the billing can be expensive."
"For most use cases requiring a small amount of storage, Vercel has a storage cap. Once you exceed that, they charge a nominal amount. I don’t think the storage is insufficient; you can use it for a long time."
"Vercel is basically free. It's free of cost for new developers."
"I'm a free user."
"As a DevOps person who has to consider the commercial aspects, I find it odd that we must pay $20 per user for each new project under a pro account. That's not what I expected. Additionally, there are charges based on bandwidth usage. We incur additional charges if we go beyond 1 TB or 2 TB. However, we can choose plans based on our specific requirements. So, while the per-project pricing and bandwidth-based charges can add up, we have some flexibility in selecting plans that fit our needs."
