There's no favourite tool, only the right tool for the problem at hand.

@dkaravias Well, if you constantly use some tools and get used to certain tools they become your favorite ones :)
Adrian Topka
Ohh I think the combination of Webflow + Airtable + Zapier + Memberstack I can do almost anything with these πŸ˜¬πŸš€
Aleks Bochkov

@adrian_topka Yes, thats a truly great set of no code apps! How do you use Memberstack tho? Do you integrate to the Webflow?
Adrian Topka
@bochkovaleks Exactly. Integrate to the Webflow through Zappier
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@adrian_topka Got it. And as for the Zapier, have you tried their alternatives who give greater amount of tasks limits per month? We have quite a few apps ourselves and our community asking for a whole bunch of integrations. We initially decided to go for the Zapier, but found a great deal of alternatives. So trying to decide now.
Adrian Topka
@bochkovaleks Of course. I have played with Integromat & Integrately. Both great (integrately has a great offer now), but you have to check if they have all necessary integrations for your needs.
Aleks Bochkov

@adrian_topka So Zapier just have more integrations thats their main advantage?

Would love to know if anyone has a good list of no code solutions with a pro and con analysis!
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@rg97 Yeah! Agreed! That would be awesome to have such a comparison list.
Ivanna Wendel

@rg97 Great idea! We can start putting it together based on all the suggestions raised in this discussion today.
Sidharth Prekash
@rg97 NoCode MBA has a pretty good list with the pros and cons - https://www.nocode.mba/guide
Aleks Bochkov

@rg97 @sidharth_prekash Quite resourceful! πŸ‘
Tuana Γ‡elik
@rg97 Not sure about a list but I think @mert_aktas from User Guiding or one of his colleagues had a podcast dedicated to talking about no/low code solutions and trends.
Uku Kudu
Elementor Pro and Wordpress
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@uku_kudu Yes, those guys are the best on Wordpress CMS.
Ivanna Wendel
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@uku_kudu Are there any other alternatives in the Wordpress website builder space? Alternatives to Elementor?
Uku Kudu
@ivanna_wendel There are some. Divi, Beaver, WPBakery, Oxygen, Visual Composer
Uku Kudu
@bochkovaleks I think the same. πŸ‘πŸΌ
Aleks Bochkov

@ivanna_wendel @uku_kudu Wow! Impressive! I didn't no there are so many players in the Wordpess website builders niche. Thanks for sharing.

@thesammysworld Why not to use Webflow for all sites? How Carrd better or different from the Webflow?
Max Prilutskiy
Lingo.dev
@thesammysworld +1 to Notion. And notionlytics.com to have the usage stats.
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@thesammysworld @prilutskiy Yeah, Notion is great, no doubt! But lately a bit slow on mac. At least on my mac :)
Sanketh Sampara
@bochkovaleks Carrd is a bit faster to implement and cheaper for simple use cases. Webflow might get really costly if all you need is a simple static landing page with not much jazz.
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@thesammysworld @lionelbenjiho Sounds like Carrd is a great app! Thanks for explaining!

HockeyStack
hockeystack.com for sure :)
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@emiratl16 Is this like a Hotjar or Analytics?
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@emiratl16 Looks awesome BTW! πŸš€
Emir AtlΔ±
HockeyStack
@bochkovaleks 10x faster than Hotjar, but still easy & detailed
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@emiratl16 Faster in terms of what exactly?
Emir AtlΔ±
HockeyStack
@bochkovaleks for example, if someone spends 5 minutes on your website and done 15 actions (clicks, pageviews, etc.) then you need to watch a 5 minute video with Hotjar. With HockeyStack, you see every single step in seconds and see what everyone has done. You can also filter your visitors by goals, user & session properties, and the goals they haven't done.
Claire Glisson
Big fan of Webflow! In my experience, it has TONS more modern functionality accessible to no-code users (if you're willing to do the research to understand how) than a Wordpress + Elementor combo.
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@claire_glisson A lot of folks rooting for Webflow here :) Looks like we got a winner. Have tried other website builders tho? And what about Figma?
Ivanna Wendel
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@claire_glisson Yes, Webflow is one of the leaders in this space :) I like it too. Do you make designs and built sites yourself in it?
Claire Glisson
@bochkovaleks I've tried Wordpress + Elementor as well as your out of the box site builders (Wix, Squarespace) - Webflow is in a league of its own in my book. I do use Figma but mostly for design + component creation - can you actually publish a functional site from Figma too?
Claire Glisson
@ivanna_wendel I wouldn't call myself a UX designer, but I get by as a bootstrapped founder who MUST play that role! I like to use existing Webflow templates and modify them for my needs. I find I usually f*ck them up in the process, lol
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@claire_glisson Yeah makes sense! Yes, Figma is limited to deign only. Webflow in these terms are way better! But still designing in Figma feels more natural :)
Denis Danilov
Really love Webflow. Used it many times for different tasks and even built a landing page for my primary product β€” Stratum UI Design Kit
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@danilov_den Its looks like everyones number one choice here is Webflow. Have you tried other website builder, before choosing Webflow as the primary one?
Denis Danilov
@bochkovaleks I wanted something with maximum freedom. I researched some other site builders (like Tilda), but they were too limited
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@danilov_den Got it. But do you do the actual design in the Webflow or you do it elsewhere and then integrate to the Webflow?
Denis Danilov
@bochkovaleks I created the design in Figma, then assembled it through Webflow. After that, I corrected small details only in Webflow itself.
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@danilov_den Got it! Thanks for sharing your experience πŸ™
Louis Lafont
Google Sheets/Excel ! This is still by large the most used, foundational no-code tool ! Every company is somehow a competitor of this one. By the way I've build Sheet2SMS upon it to send texts from your spreadsheet !
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@dot_louis Its pretty cool! Thanks for sharing and building it. I will def check it out.
Marius Busen
@dot_louis then you should check rows.com :) makes it even easier to build automations and integrate with APIs
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@dot_louis @marius_busen Nice! So Rows are in direct competition with Airtable, right? Are Rows have any substantial differences from the Airtable?
Marius Busen
@dot_louis @bochkovaleks not in direct competition i would say... :) rows has much more of an actual spreadsheet feeling to it and makes calculations and handling of data (including json) much easier. there's some overlap for sure, but other unique features of rows like integrations to linkedin, facebook, etc. feel free to try though, we have a free plan to play around a bit :)
Aleks Bochkov
Helpdesk by LabiDesk
@dot_louis @marius_busen Thanks for explaining! Def will try it! Sounds like a great app!

Craftwork Design
It is https://craftwork.design products of course haha
Aleks Bochkov

@shepovalovdenis Oh cool :) Are those templates compatible with the Webflow or other builders?

@bochkovaleks Not templates but all illustrations we made!
