1.1 The Global Trend
"Build better together
Webflow is no longer just a CMS. The tool is evolving technically, multiplying integrations and intelligent acquisitions, and becoming the leading Website Experience Platform. But... how does this translate?
Webflow becomes a DXP (Digital eXperience Platform), an all-in-one tool that reduces the accumulation of third-party tools, thus optimizing the costs and management of marketing websites. This dynamic is well reflected in the slogan of this 2024 conference: "Build better together", and in the announcements that make it easier for everyone (marketers, developers, designers, agencies and freelancers) to work with Webflow.
