Webflow vs. Yo!Kart

The good outweighs the bad. I love how my webpage works, and it fulfills everything that I was trying to accomplish. The ability to tag and distribute content across the site saves a lot of time and energy. I just wish that custom elements were easier to reuse across pages and that it weren't so hard to figure out. This tool is better suited for someone who knows what they are doing, rather than a beginner.

While
searching for the most reliable and promising multi-vendor ecommerce solution,
I came across Yo!Kart from Fatbit Technologies. Before making any
purchase decision I needed a few clarification on their packages and hence I
took contact with one of their sales team member, Ms Kulwinder Kaur. She was
extremely helpful in clarifying most of the doubts I had and she also went
beyond by connecting me with Mr Kapil Grover (VP – Partnership and Alliances)
who made sure all my queries were answered. After a few conversations with
them, I knew my project would be in good hands and hence decided to move
forward with the purchase. My project was handed over to Mr. Abhishek (Project
Manager) and I am so grateful that he was the one assigned for it. Mr. Abhishek
is an extremely dedicated individual and I have developed a very good
professional relationship with him throughout my time working with Fatbit. He ensured all my issues were solved
immediately by maintaining a professional communication throughout. I am
extremely thankfull to him for all determination and extra effort he put in to
ensure my platform was top-notch. He definitely deserves to be promoted for all
the hard work he puts in!

• Easy to use and customize CMS.

• It has a very simple to use user interface
• They provide us many revenew options, such as PPS and more.
• The customer service is magnificent!

• The Content Management System needs improvement. In my experience, it's very difficult to organise all our content at big volumes. We want to create a resources section where we can categorize our content but there isn't an easy or intuitive way to do it
• In my opinion, it's incredibly difficult to create tables in an article
• You have to do custom coding for anchor links within an article and it's time consuming and, in my opinion, super annoying
• Website designs are not responsive we need to keep designing a separate mobile version
• In my opinion, Formatting content in articles is annoying compared to other CMSs like Wordpress, Shopify, Wix, Blogger, etc. Worst experience I've had.
• Changes to the nav bar on the homepage do not reflect universally, we needed to do the same changes all over again for our blog and mobile
• Content editors need to keep logging in every time they add content

• Providing individual sellers more access to their customer's contact information.
• Update their documentation to reflect recent upgrades.
• better support for Third Party Integrations.

It's the perfect balance of GUI and code control

With a little education, I find Webflow incredibly easy to use. As previously mentioned, the Webflow University video library is amazing so anything you need help with is already available. That said, I do feel like it is a relatively steep learning curve and would be even steeper for someone who is completely new to Web Development, which is why I gave it the score I did.

In my experience, their customer service is an absolute joke, I tried reaching out to them they took forever. I had to keep following up with them as if they never received it in the first place. It’s a new platform, so guidance is needed. Tried the university they offer, in my opinion, it is completely useless, I would just completely move on from this website.

In my opinion, it is horrible, the rendering takes forever. I have the newest MacBook and the platform will still lag and slow down on me. I’m not a developer, I am a designer which makes it worst because I am using the features they are providing not extra coding features. In my opinion, it is a horrible platform really, stay away.

I haven't had to engage them from a support perspective; however, there is a considerable user community for tips/ideas/troubleshooting and the like. I believe the Pro plan supports additional resources but we didn't find that the cost justified the outcome. Overall the need for support has been relatively minor.

So, Webflow gave me the freedom that other platforms didn't in terms of not needing to code (in comparison to WordPress), and the site looks like a professional page rather than a generic average one, and then in terms of having more than just writing key findings (in comparison to medium) like a site that feels unique and sophisticated. Finally, all in all, Webflow is harder at start but the results are eye pleasing and its totally worth the time.

We chose Yo!Kart over CS-Kart because Yo!Kart is an all-in-one package. We do not have a dedicated software development team that would be needed for customizing CS-Kart. We chose Yo!Kart over Shuup because Shuup does not support a multivendor market that offers both physical and digital download products at the same time.

I feel it doesn’t perform the way it’s supposed to and it doesn’t have any beneficial factors to it. In my opinion, there is no reason to use a platform like this when Wix and Shopify, and WordPress exist. I believe Webflow is a platform that shouldn’t exist and it’s only popular because of the hype it received. I tried it and hate it completely.
