Good to know
The Short Answer
As of 12 October 2026: choose Shopify if you sell products. It is the only one of the three with a cart and checkout on every plan, from $29 a month billed yearly.
Choose Framer for the lowest price. Framer Basic is $10 a month billed yearly and includes a blog of up to 1,000 posts, but Framer has no built-in checkout, no page redirects on Basic and no supported way to export your site.
Choose Webflow for a site with lots of content that will keep growing. Webflow Premium is $25 a month billed yearly and holds 20,000 posts and other items, but Webflow takes longer to learn, and team seats ($39 each), extra languages ($9 each) and visitor stats (from $9) cost extra.
How We Compare
Every fact comes from the platform's own pricing page or help centre. A tick means it's included at no extra cost, a dash means it's limited or costs extra, and a cross means it isn't available. Prices are in US dollars.
"Best fit" comes from your answers. Each one is checked against the facts in the table: doing something fully counts for more than doing it partly, what you're building counts most, and a platform that can't do something you need is never the best fit. The best fit moves to the left and the weakest to the right. You can download every fact with its source.
What Changed in 2026
Webflow merged its CMS and Business plans into one Premium plan on 13 May 2026. Framer retired its Scale plan and cut editor seats to $20 on 16 June 2026. Shopify raised its limit to 2,048 variants per product on 15 October 2025.
