Common critiques: a steeper-than-expected learning curve, a CMS that feels limiting on complex structures, pricing concerns, and occasional support or onboarding gaps. Still, momentum, community, and rapid updates keep confidence high.

I have been using Framer prototype and Framer sites for almost two years and worked on personal and client projects through them. My experience is a great one so much for the tool and the developers behind it, that I committed myself to help others as well and continue to do so via the discord community, advocating the benefits to our clients and creating cutting edge and engaging experiences through Medium articles and open source snippets. Framer offers all the tools to let you create without hindering your pace or workflow, it just adds to it.

I'm a product designer so I am always experimenting with tools as early as I can to illustrate a concept. From the onboarding and interactive tutorial to the simplicity of the UI, Framer has been wonderful to use. Also I'm not sure if people know but there is even a plugin in Figma called Framer Copy Paste where you can copy your design and paste right into Framer. Some of my favorite things about Framer are: - The way they do component creation + variants - Style management - Breakpoints - Ease of use

Honestly, I think this is the future of web design. I hope framer is widely adopted by all. But your tutorials and “university” could use some work.

I have to say this version is way much more friendly to the no-code. Though I understand how framer is trying to create a middle shared ground for the no-code and the code-savvy, the bar was high if an intrigued user who has zero background in design or coding wants to get his/her hands on framer. However, there are still a lot of problems with the coding part. Like, my colleague and I were once accidentally trying to add on the coding lines at the same time, and something went wrong, and the whole project blew up and shut down... lol... don't do the coding at the same time... one person at each time...

Great no-code platform with a hugely strong community and a committed developer. Having used Wordpress extensively and got lost in Webflow, this makes life much easier to make quick website builds with modern functionality

Been using it for a little while and very happy with it - strong active community. Giving 4 stars because it'd be nice to have the ability to compile code from Framer for other platforms as Framer components can only be used on Framer platform/sites currently.

Great when you need a simple website straight from Figma. Love how they work together.

Moving from Webflow to Framer, early days just playing around but love the platform and how easy it is to build a responsive site. Would love to see Framer integrate Airtable csv imports and more functionality in the CMS.

Misleading pricing. Max non-custom plan is 100gb of bandwidth, which they advertise as 100.000 visitors/month. So each visitor can spend 1mb of bandwidth. EDIT: Seems to be no reply button so I have to reply this way. It’s misleading in the sense that you initially mention all your plans with only the amount of visitors per month listed. Conveniently leaving out the extremely low bandwidth. From there you can directly purchase without seeing the low bandwidth unless your scroll all the way down. While theoretically you could reach 100k visitors with 100gb, most websites would run out bandwidth far before 100k visitors. It also says it’s targeted at “bigger websites”. This also doesn’t make sense as bigger websites will easily use over 1 mb of bandwidth when browsing multiple pages. The amount of visitors you advertise is very unlikely to be reached for most websites. 1mb per visitor is not realistic for most websites. It would be different if you included the bandwidth in the first part of your pricing, but leaving out the much more likely to be hit limit of 100gb bandwidth while having a purchase button there, is misleading. EDIT 2: My apologies if the pricing was indeed not intentionally set up that way. I commend you for looking into it.

Hey, sorry if this is confusing. On the pro plan, you get 100 GB of bandwidth per month and 100,000 visitors per month. Curious to learn why this is misleading?

Thanks for the feedback. There’s definitely no intention of misleading people into purchasing so we’ll take a look at this. As a side note, we’ll never take down your website without notice when you reach one of these limits. We’re pretty flexible and always work with our (bigger) customers to find a solution that works for everyone.

Framer is an amazing product that brings design so close to reality for the first time. Making your canvas into a web page is something other tools haven't done, but Framer has. During the Beta period, Framer's team always provided the quickest support for designers who needed features like ZIndex, Grids, and more. Not only that, but Framer still retains its original prototyping features, which is rare for a product with big changes. In terms of visual design, Framer still needs improvement, such as improving the experience of vector tools. Framer must be one of the most valuable software for designers!
