Webflow wasn’t built for enterprises with an existing CMS
Teams with established stacks do not want to get locked into Webflow’s CMS, limiting how far they can integrate, collaborate, or scale. That’s when they start looking for alternatives like Vev.

CMS freedom
Locked into Webflow CMS; you risk running two tech stacks in parallel.
CMS-agnostic: publish into any CMS (Adobe, Contentful, Sanity, etc.) or run standalone.
Creative freedom
Visual editor tied to CSS grids/containers. Ideal for freelancers, limiting for enterprises.
Free drag and drop canvas like Figma; build content with a wide selection of animation presets and native interactions.
Collaboration
No real-time multi-player & keystroke syncing. Only capped at 25 users. Feels more like “turn-taking” than true collaboration.
Real-time multi-player co-editing, keystroke syncing, element-level comments with @mentions, and version history.
Content ownership
You own it all. Export possible, but CMS data, forms, and workflows often break outside Webflow.
You own everything. Export a full ZIP with assets anytime. If you leave, your projects come with you.
Hosting
Locked to Webflow hosting. Export strips out CMS, forms, e-commerce, and search—making CMS integration nearly impossible.
Flexible hosting: host with Vev or your own servers with embeds, webhooks, and automatic DNS support built in.
Code Flexibility
Supports custom CSS/JS snippets only.
Extend with custom React components where developers can build custom React component and designers then tweak them visually without touching code.
Pricing & scale
Affordable for freelancers; enterprise pricing jumps steeply with seats and sites.
Transparent enterprise pricing. Unlimited testing before committing.
