Flowly offers independent and affordable hosting for no-code platforms. It works by connecting or importing your Webflow site. When you edit your site or content in Webflow, changes are synced automatically to your custom domain hosted with Flowly.
Hi Product Hunt 👋
I've created Flowly to offer an independent and affordable alternative for hosting your no-code products. Webflow only for now, but more platforms will be added later.
Why Flowly? Because let's face it, no-code platforms have brought tremendous value for makers. But many are rightly worried about vendor lock-ins and the risk of ever-increasing prices.
Having the choice to host your no-code products elsewhere is healthy for the no-code market dynamics, and that's why I've created Flowly.
The offer is simple: Affordable Webflow hosting, backed by the reliable infrastructure of Netlify (AWS and Google Cloud). It works by connecting or uploading your Webflow site. Any changes you make within Webflow will be synced to your custom domain hosted with Flowly. You can either use the Webflow preview link for syncs, or a manual upload of your exported site.
For today's launch, we're offering an additional 50% discount on all hosting plans. This means you can host a basic site for as little as $4.50 per month, or $9 for CMS-enabled Webflow sites! The offer with code 'FLOWLY50OFF' is valid for those who join the waitlist before 21 February 2023.
Hi Nick! Loving the idea. I am a bit worried though - this app reminds me of Stacket, which worked by connected a webhook to your Webflow website. It was shut down by Webflow for violating their terms of service. Could you explain how this app does things differently?
@jan_willem_wessels Good question. I wasn’t aware of Stacket until now, but to my understanding, end-users are owner of their site and should have the right to host it elsewhere. Users are paying Webflow and have the ability to export their site. So in a way, they’re facilitating this use case already.
@nvdb31 yes but owning content and data is different than actively scraping what’s on Webflow. What you do with your export is yours. But, you’re essentially using the Webflow tech to scrap and repurpose on your end. Just wanted to give you, again, a heads up before any storms come your way 👍🏻
@nvdb31@heyderekj I'm glad you mentioned something because I was thinking the same thing. Both Stacket and CryoLayer seemed to be the same as this and Webflow came after them. Not sure how you would keep the project "synced" without violating their TOS. It's one thing to export elsewhere, but it seems to me they have limited that (no CMS etc) so as to keep the use case limited.
Hello Flowly team,
I tried to use your product but it shows an error after the first step itself, I wasn't able to connect my website and my website isn't e-commerce or search-enabled. I tried sending an email to your support team but haven't gotten a reply yet.
We would like to buy your subscription and use your product but we aren't sure if the product is still active. Can you guys confirm?
