Is it worth migrating from WordPress to Webstudio?
First off, I must express my admiration for the launch of the new Webstudio CMS. It is, without a doubt, an incredible addition to Webstudio, and the flexibility it provides is quite something.
I'm considering transferring all my business/personal and clients' websites from WordPress to Webstudio, which would be an immense amount of work. Here are a couple of concerns I have (I will use the Webstudio Cloud Plan): BackupsāComing from WordPress and using Wpengine as costly hosting, I have daily backups to fall back on in case something happens (and with WordPress, something always happens). How does Webstudio handle backups? SupportāThis community on Discord seems to be all the Webstudio support. But what about when something related to billing or if one of my client's websites gets hacked (highly unlikely with Webstudio, but it happened to me so many times in WordPress that I'm skeptical)? Who do I contact for billing and critical situations?
Ooo the CLI is interesting. That makes making local backups quite easily. Then when importing feature is done I think that will suffice for most needs.
The good thing is Webstudio is open source. In case something happens to the original team at least the community can continue the project. You guys seems to be very passionate about Webstudio, so is basically a bet on your future. I'm confident Webstudio will be a big thing someday.
