    Hello everyone, I'm in the process of building a B2B SaaS that allows customization and some complex features for users. I've been considering Bubble.io and Webflow as my no-code platform, but I'm struggling to decide which one to go with. I love the Webflow design experience much more than Bubble's, but I'm not sure if it's the right choice for a B2B SaaS. I know both platforms have their advantages and disadvantages, but I would like to hear from experienced developers and business owners. I'm looking for a platform that integrates well with other no-code tools, has a solid support system, and is scalable for a B2B audience. I'm interested in hearing about your experience with either of these platforms and which one you think is better for building a B2B SaaS. Any thoughts and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi Santiago, It seems you already asked "The best no-code tool for designing landing pages". So, if I defenitely picked Webflow for a landing page, the question of SaaS requires some thinking before answering :) To be able to make a choice you really need to answer one question - what is more important for you/your audience design or functionality? You can defintely build a really great SaaS tool with Webflow, though you should be aware you will have to put all of your logic somewhere else - Zapier, Make or even no-code api tools. This will add an extra cost in sense of money but also for maintain issues and problems with scalability or outages of third-party services. With the Bubble you have database and logic (aka Back-end) built-in (well Webflow also launched their Logic in Beta, but it is still quite simple), but with Bubble extra efforts required for the UI (even tho, there're a lot of ready made tamplets, and so on). To summurize: - if your SaaS tool not a tool with a lot of backend logic, big databases and you OK to maintain all the "Zoo" of different tools - Webflow will help you create a project with awesome design and user experience. There're a lot of sweet micro-SaaS built with Webflow. - if not - and the "features", managing users and overall service delivery process is complicated - Bubble would be a beter choice. IMHO. Good luck with your start!
