The debate rages on: Framer fans praise its speed and interactivity. Webflow loyalists swear by its granular control. But which tool actually saves you time, money, and sanity?

We built the same project (a SaaS landing page) in both tools—here’s what happened.

Round 1: Speed

• Framer: Built the page in 3 hours using Kaden’s Neurapen template. Animations? Drag-and-drop.

• Webflow: Took 8 hours (and a YouTube tutorial marathon) to get the CMS working.

Winner: Framer, if you value launching fast.

Round 2: Customization

• Webflow: Pixel-perfect control over every element (good if you’re a CSS wizard).

• Framer: 90% of the way there with Kaden’s templates—without code.

Winner: Tie. Webflow for total control, Framer for efficient polish.

Round 3: Cost

• Framer: Free plan available. Kaden’s templates start at $99 (one-time).

• Webflow: $23+/month plus a developer for advanced features.

Winner: Framer, if you’re bootstrapping.

When to Choose Which

• Pick Framer if: You’re a founder, freelancer, or agency that needs to ship fast without hiring a dev.

• Pick Webflow if: You need complex CMS setups and have design/tech resources.

Pro Tip: Kaden’s templates close Framer’s “customization gap” with pre-built, conversion-optimized sections.

Bottom Line:
Framer + Kaden = the MVP for solopreneurs. Webflow = the choice for large-scale builds.
