# Webflow vs. Squarespace

> This roundup compares Webflow and Squarespace through one frequently overlooked purchasing criterion: what a customer can take away. Webflow offers paid Workspace users an export of static HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and assets that can be edited or self-hosted, though its CMS, ecommerce, accounts, forms, search, localization, and other hosted functions do not travel with that package. Squarespace offers a WordPress-format XML export for selected content, but its style settings, custom CSS, many page types, commerce features, and complete site implementation do not export. The practical lesson is to test an exit before committing: portability is an architectural property, separate from design quality or day-to-day convenience.

## Achievements

- Webflow provides an official front-end code export for paid Workspace users.
- Squarespace provides an official WordPress XML path for migrating selected site content.
- Both platforms publish detailed documentation about the limits of their respective export functions.

## Latest updates

- **2026-08** — Webflow's current pricing page lists code export on paid Workspace plans, with dynamic CMS content excluded.
- **2026-02** — Squarespace's current export guide lists the content supported by its WordPress XML export and confirms that style settings and custom CSS do not export.
