Want to know how Webflow efficiency can streamline your content operations? Read on to find out how it can change your workflow and get more efficiency.
Operational challenges in traditional web development
Let’s be honest: traditional website development and content management is a drag. Here are some of the problems many businesses face with legacy CMSs:
- Slow content updates: Most traditional CMSs require developers to make even the smallest of content changes, resulting in delays and back and forth between marketing and IT teams.
- Quality control issues: In larger teams, content quality inconsistencies can pop up when different departments have different workflows and standards.
- Poor collaboration: Cross-departmental collaboration can be stifled when marketing, especially design and IT teams, aren’t working off the same platform that allows them to collaborate efficiently.
- No scalability: As businesses grow, content management demands outstrip the capabilities of traditional CMSs and slow down and frustrate.
These operational bottlenecks can cost valuable time and resources, which only a Webflow efficiency platform can reverse.
Webflow’s solution: Faster corrections and streamlined processes
Webflow is the solution for businesses hoping to escape these operational constraints. With its design tools and CMS capabilities, Webflow changes the way businesses approach website development and content management.
Here’s how Webflow fixes the operational problems:
- Faster fixes: Webflow CMS allows marketers, content creators, and designers to update in real-time without involving developers. Whether it’s a headline or product details, everything can be done in a few clicks so teams can respond to changes or feedback.
- Smoother processes: Webflow’s drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to design and build websites fast which speeds up the whole workflow. With one platform, businesses no longer need to use multiple tools and platforms to get the job done. The process becomes more fluid, resulting in faster deployment times and less miscommunication.
80% efficiency gains in digital content editing
Webflow’s best feature is its efficiency, especially in content editing. It can go all the way up to 80% faster in streamlining your editing:
- Instant content updates: In a traditional CMS, devs need to jump in for simple content edits. With Webflow, any team member with the right permissions can update the site themselves. No more delays and no need to wait for external help.
- Better workflow: Webflow’s CMS lets users create and manage complex content structures without code. Custom fields, categorization, and custom workflows let businesses maintain quality and consistency across all channels.
- Real-time collaboration: Content editing becomes a whole lot smoother when teams can collaborate in real-time. With Webflow CMS, multiple team members can work on the site at the same time, making edits, providing feedback, and approving changes instantly.
Collaboration without IT dependency
One of the biggest pain points with traditional CMS platforms is the dependency on IT teams for simple tasks like content updates, fixes, or even layout changes. This can cause delays and friction between departments. Webflow removes this barrier by having a CMS that doesn’t require IT to get involved for every little tweak.
With Webflow, teams can work independently. Marketers and content creators can update copy, images, and multimedia digital content on the fly, and designers can update layouts and visual elements. IT can focus on the technical bits of the site, like performance and security, while the rest of the team can update content.
This level of autonomy not only speeds up the workflow but also encourages cross-departmental collaboration, as everyone is on the same page and using the same tool.
Customer example: Improved content operations in banking
Webflow’s efficiency can be seen in action in the banking industry, where content needs to be updated fast to reflect changing regulations, products, and services. One bank used Webflow efficiency to streamline its content management, and the results were amazing.
Before Webflow, the bank had slow content updates which would often result in outdated information on the site. Developers had to jump in for every content update, which caused delays and frustration. After Webflow integration, the marketing team could take full control of content updates and ensure all information was accurate and up to date.
- Faster updates: The marketing team could update service offerings, interest rates, and financial product information in minutes instead of waiting for devs to update.
- Compliance: With the ability to update information fast, the bank could stay on top of regulatory changes and ensure all content was compliant with industry standards.
- Collaboration: Webflow’s visual CMS made it easy for marketing and compliance teams to collaborate and ensure all content was accurate, legal, and on brand before going live.
