If you've opened Webflow in the past few days and things felt off, you're not alone.

Since July 28, Webflow has been experiencing a major and ongoing outage affecting:

  • The Designer (slowness, saving issues, data revert bugs)
  • The Dashboard
  • Form submissions
  • The CMS API
  • And even new user sign-ups

This isn’t just a minor blip, it’s one of the longest platform-wide incidents in recent memory.

What’s Going On?

According to Webflow’s official status page, the problems began on Sunday afternoon (UTC) and have continued through at least July 30.

Webflow identified two main issues:

  1. Data instability in the Designer (changes sometimes disappearing)
  2. API endpoint errors blocking new account creation

Engineers have been working around the clock, even scaling infrastructure and coordinating with their database partner, but the incident is still marked as ongoing.

What You Might Notice

Here’s what you or your clients may be seeing:

  • Pages in the Designer that won't save or crash unexpectedly
  • The Webflow dashboard not loading
  • Forms that don’t submit or silently fail
  • Delays in publishing or CMS syncs
  • New teammates unable to create Webflow accounts

If your site feels slow or unresponsive, this is not just your internet, it’s part of the broader issue.

How to Track Webflow’s Status Yourself

Our Take

These things happen, but they matter. For freelancers, agencies, and companies running mission-critical websites on Webflow, even an hour of downtime can be costly. When it stretches into days, it shakes confidence.

That said, Webflow’s transparency throughout this incident has improved, daily updates are now consistent, and they've acknowledged the gravity of the issue.
