Unclaimed: Are you working at Duda?
Duda Reviews: 4.7/5 — Highly Rated
Duda’s host of incredible features is perfectly suited to facilitate collaboration. Whether you intend to work with clients or want a platform designed for seamless team coordination, Duda makes it really easy for users to develop different pages at the same time. It also includes support for a multilingual site and features tools that make it more user-friendly for global audiences such as language-specific URLs based on where the viewer is located. It also features a drag-and-drop editor for ease of use and reliable backup and restores functionality. The basic plan starts at $19 monthly but signing up for annual plans offers more discounts.

Duda Pros and Cons
- Collaboration tools
- Drag-and-drop editor
- Backup and restore functionality
- Can be expensive
- Limited third-party integration
Duda is built for agencies rather than end users, and that is the whole point: multi-site management, client permissions, team seats, and white-labelling are the product. The pricing follows the same logic, which means the plan most people find first is not the one agencies actually need. Full white-labelling starts at $149 a month, and every site beyond your allowance adds $17.
- What it is: A website builder designed for agencies and web professionals building sites on behalf of clients.
- Best for: Agencies, freelancers with a client roster, and SaaS platforms embedding site building for their own customers.
- Pricing: Basic $19, Team $29, Agency $52, White Label $149 per month, with roughly 50% off annually. Custom is quote-based. Verified in July 2026.
- The honest catch: Additional sites cost $17 a month each, so an agency’s real bill is driven by client count rather than the plan price.
What Is Duda?
Duda occupies a different position from Squarespace, Wix, or Framer. Those tools sell to the person whose website it is. Duda sells to the person building websites for other people, and every design decision reflects that: client permissions that let a customer edit their own content without breaking the layout, team collaboration, multi-site dashboards, and a platform you can rebrand as your own.
That last capability is the reason large SaaS platforms embed Duda rather than building their own site builder. If your product needs to offer customers a website, Duda can be the engine with your branding on the front.
The independent ratings are strong: 4.6 out of 5 on G2 across 784 reviews and 4.5 on Capterra across 214. Reviewers praise the editing experience and turnaround speed, and the most common criticism is pricing structure.
How Duda Works
- Multi-site management. A dashboard for many client sites rather than one site’s settings, which is the core agency requirement.
- Client permissions. Customers can edit their own content within boundaries you set, which prevents the classic problem of a client dismantling their own layout.
- White-labelling. From the White Label plan, the entire platform carries your branding: custom domain, login screen, client communication, and support portal.
- Team seats. Three team members on Team, six on Agency and White Label, unlimited on Custom.
- AI tooling. AI SEO and Building Assistants on every plan, AI Content Collection from Team, and an AI Connector using Model Context Protocol from Agency.
- Developer access. Code access from Team, and a custom widget builder from Agency.
Duda Pricing
Five tiers, and the meaningful variable is sites rather than features. Figures verified on Duda’s pricing page in July 2026.
| Plan | Monthly | Annual (per mo) | Sites | Team members |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $19 | ~$9.50 | 1 | — |
| Team | $29 | ~$14.50 | 1 | 3 |
| Agency | $52 | ~$26 | 4 | 6 |
| White Label | $149 | ~$74.50 | 4 | 6 |
| Custom | Quote | — | Flexible | Unlimited |
Additional sites cost $17 per month, or $168 per year, on Team, Agency, and White Label.
The arithmetic an agency should do before choosing:
- Your bill is client count, not plan price. Agency at $52 includes four sites. A twenty-client agency pays $52 plus sixteen extra sites at $17, which is $324 a month, or considerably less on annual billing at $168 per site per year. The plan is the smaller half of the cost.
- Full white-labelling costs $149. That is 7.8 times the Basic plan, and it is the feature that lets you present the platform as your own. Agencies that want their brand on the client-facing experience are looking at the top published tier, not the one named “Agency”.
- Basic and Team include one site each. Despite Duda being agency software, the two cheapest plans are single-site. Team’s value is the three seats and code access, not capacity.
- Annual billing roughly halves the price. Promotions of 50% off yearly plans appear regularly, and the effective annual rates above reflect that. Check whether the discount is introductory or standing before committing.
- A 14-day trial with no credit card. Enough to build a real client site and judge the editor.
Who Should Use Duda
- Agencies with a client roster. The clearest case. Multi-site management, client permissions, and team seats exist for exactly this, and nothing consumer-focused matches it.
- Freelancers who maintain sites for others. Client editing boundaries prevent the support calls that follow a customer breaking their own page.
- SaaS platforms embedding site building. White-labelling and the API make Duda a component rather than a destination.
- Teams that value turnaround. Reviewers specifically praise how quickly sites can be produced.
It fits poorly for individuals building one site, where Squarespace or Framer cost less and look better, for design-led work where visual craft is the differentiator, and for agencies unwilling to pay $149 for the white-label experience they are implicitly promising clients.
Honest Pros and Cons
Strengths
- Purpose-built for agencies. Multi-site, permissions, and team management as first-class features rather than afterthoughts.
- Genuine white-labelling. Your branding across the platform, login, and client communication.
- Excellent ratings. 4.6 on G2 across 784 reviews and 4.5 on Capterra.
- Fast production. Reviewers repeatedly cite quick turnaround across many client sites.
- Client editing without breakage. Permissions that let customers update content safely.
- Modern AI tooling. Including an MCP connector, which is ahead of most competitors in this category.
Limitations
- Per-site pricing dominates the bill. $17 per additional site per month, which scales directly with your client count.
- White-labelling is the top published tier. $149 a month for the capability that defines agency use.
- The cheap plans are single-site. Basic and Team include one site each, which is odd for agency software.
- Pricing structure drives churn. Reviewers specifically mention leaving Duda over it, and it is the most common criticism.
- Client billing is limited. Reviewers want more control than the feature currently offers.
- Not a design-led tool. Competent and clean, but Framer and Webflow produce more distinctive work.
Duda Alternatives and How It Compares
- Webflow offers more design power and has its own agency tooling, at a steeper learning curve.
- Squarespace is better for single sites and better looking out of the box, with no meaningful multi-site management.
- Framer wins on design fidelity and loses on client management, and its per-editor pricing punishes teams.
- WordPress.com and WooCommerce are the alternative for agencies comfortable maintaining infrastructure.
- Wix has a separate agency programme worth comparing if you already know the editor.

The Verdict
Duda is one of the few website builders that understands agencies are a different customer from site owners, and it is genuinely good at serving them. Client permissions, multi-site dashboards, team seats, and white-labelling solve problems that consumer builders do not acknowledge, and a 4.6 rating across 784 G2 reviews suggests agencies find it works.
Model the cost on client count before comparing anything. The plan price is the smaller number: additional sites are $17 a month each, so a twenty-client agency on the Agency plan is paying well over $300 monthly, and the annual rate at $168 per site is the figure that actually matters. Reviewers who leave Duda almost always leave over this structure rather than the product.
The other decision is white-labelling. If you present the site builder to clients as part of your own service, the $149 White Label plan is what delivers that, not the $52 plan named “Agency”. That gap is worth confronting early, because discovering it after you have promised clients a branded experience is an expensive conversation. For agencies that accept both numbers, Duda is a strong and well-liked platform.
FAQ
How much does Duda cost in 2026?
Basic is $19 per month, Team $29, Agency $52, and White Label $149, with annual billing roughly halving those to about $9.50, $14.50, $26, and $74.50 per month. Custom is quote-based. Additional sites cost $17 per month or $168 per year on the Team plan and above.
How much does Duda cost for an agency with many clients?
Considerably more than the plan price. Agency at $52 per month includes four sites, and each additional site is $17 monthly or $168 annually. A twenty-client agency therefore pays roughly $324 per month on monthly billing, or substantially less annually. Client count, not plan tier, is the dominant cost.
Which Duda plan includes white-labelling?
The White Label plan at $149 per month. It provides a fully white-labelled platform including a custom domain, branded client communication, support portal, and login screen. The $52 Agency plan, despite its name, does not include full white-labelling, which catches out agencies that assume it does.
Is Duda good for a single website?
It works, but it is poor value. Basic at $19 includes one site and no team members, and consumer-focused builders like Squarespace or Framer produce better-looking results for similar money. Duda’s advantages are multi-site management, client permissions, and white-labelling, none of which apply to one personal or business site.
What is Duda best for?
Agencies and web professionals building and maintaining sites for clients, and SaaS platforms embedding a site builder under their own brand. It is the strongest option in this category for managing many sites and many client relationships, and the wrong choice for building one site well.
Compare Duda with other popular tools in the same category.
-Very straightforward design in widgets and placement -Sections/saved templates are a great feature to speed up the process -Easy to give client access to edit their site
-widgets can be buggy -Duda flex seems to have too many limitations/seems finnicky -preview site that gets sent to customer is not great, doesn't accurately show dimensions -social media in business information is not right, there is an uneditable portion of the link yet it is missing a www. cannot use this as it creates broken links so cannot use connected data feature. -seems there could be room for UX team to look through the product and implement more consistency in the features or have clear rules pop up when using a certain widget
Time efficient way to deliver web designs to customers
Duda is easy for non-coders to use. This means the graphic designer in our team can build a website, and our clients can log in to edit the content. Developer Mode lets you dig into the code if you need to, but no-code sites are clearly the future. I also love the add-ons available for Duda; for example, you can plugin a spreadsheet or Airtable and suddenly have beautiful charts and graphs with customisable colours on your site. If I was developing the site myself, there would be a lot more work involved to set that up.
There are limitations to what you can do, and many designs are simply not possible in Duda. Overlapping sections or similar design details can be difficult to implement cross-browser. The editor UI is a bit slow and janky sometimes.
Duda is freeing-up our developer resources on simple websites, so they can concentrate on solving more difficult problems. We don't need a developer to custom-build a landing page for the 10,000th time. No-code solutions clearly shine in this scenario.
Duda is easy and intuitive to use for building simple websites. Can essentially build a functional, modern website in just a few hours. Much more user friendly than Wordpress
It can be difficult to implement custom features. It is not possible to create a sub-domain. It would also be nice if uploading JS or CSS files was possible. Sometimes Duda's dev mode can be difficult to work with.
Domains and hosting is usually complex, but it is simple with Duda. Everything is dealt with in one place. So many more websites can be built since it takes very little time to build them.
intuitive and responsive, easy to manage and easy to create a simple and dynamic design
Few widgets (yet) could bet on more interactive and personalized widgets (such as managing table reservations, galleries, accommodation reservations) html code injection is a bit limited, if we put custom code it limits the site performance
speed in developing websites
user-friendliness-- easy to use-- gives good experience to user and SEO friendly
not compatible with many 3rd party plug ins
SEO to users is main selling point and it gives pretty sites that are also easily SEOed
I believe Duda is doing a great job at incorporating the key components and building blocks of web development in an easy to use way.
Customization and more advanced development work is still a bit painful when trying to preserve the niceness of the current CMS front end. All of it is possible but not super easy at the moment for bigger pieces.
Duda currently is solving the problem of allowing users with no experience in development help craft/manage their website (generally more brochure style sites at the moment)
Duda is very easy to use. I like the Restaurant Menu widget since we can easily import the whole menu and change the contents. The support team helped me solving most of my problems regarding the use of the widgets, layout design issues, and some function questions.
It was a little bit hard to contact the support team.
Duda helped me solving some layout issues. It turns out that I can customize more functions on Duda than I thought.
I'm very impressed with Duda's flexibility in building custom tablet and mobile versions of each website. While responsive is great, it doesn't always work out as well as it is supposed to, and being able to create a stand-alone mobile version is critical in today's age. I'm also impressed with how easy to use the builder is for my clients. I don't have to worry about clients creating drama for me by moving important items on the page as I can lock them so clients can't edit anything they shouldn't be able to. Their support is also great and they have been nothing short of superb when I've needed them. It is also very important for me that my client websites are on a secure platform and Duda does that very well. Its also very affordable for me as a web supplier.
I feel the blog could do with some work. Not being able to set your RSS feed to summary only has caused challenges for some of my clients with regard to traffic. I don't feel it's super important myself, but it has meant that I've lost a few jobs because clients have affiliate levels they must reach and having their full blog post able to be read on feed readers (and therefore missing the click through) is critical to maintaining their traffic levels. In my opinion, the blog layout is very limited and small things such as not being able to create or post blogs from the mobile version of Duda are quite a challenge for me. They do seem to be working on the blog however so I will wait and see what comes next.
I have all my client sites together which is excellent and the agency pricing makes it easier for me to make money on my monthly hosting.
- Facilità di utilizzo anche per il cliente - Mobile First - Elasticità nelle varie soluzioni
- Profondità (no plugin esterni) - Layout un po' statici
Semplice nell'uso veloce quotidiano e nella formazione lato.cliente.
As a designer, it is very important for me to be able to manipulate the layouts with ease. The means to access the HTML/CMS and add JS that will work is supplemental. Duda has simplified the work environment making their competitor WIX seems over-worked.
Nearly all my clients need to blog. Though much improved, there still is a disconnect between the blog layouts and the general website environment. Both Duda and Wix should consider having a template system to isolate the content editors so that they are separate from the design and layouts.
Small enterprises that have a need to launch a site quickly. Launched a site in Duda in a few hours for a customer who can't get enough of managing their own site for the first time in their career.
I like the option to have a site for life. You pay one fee and then you don't pay an annual fee again.
While it works well for basic sites and mobile sites, it soes have limitations for password protected pages/sites.
We first used DudaMobile to create inexpensive mobile optimized sites until we could build our sites to be compatible across devices. Now, we use the sites to host content for non-branded content.
Was very straight forward and easy to manage.
If I wanted to edit several pages with one action, I had a difficult time doing so.
Mobile access to website is the benefit of using Duda.
Duda has a lot of customization possible
Takes a while to get used to and there seems not to be many connections available
Duda is giving us the possibility to offer personalized websites to our customers
I like Duda's opportunities to agencies. It's really easy to use and White Label features are great. Their panel is mostly user-friendly. If we need to talk about compatibility with SEO and Core Web Vital, no one can beat Duda.
All the panels and widgets feels-like not been updated since mid of 20'. Every part of the system looks too old when I comparing to other White Label editors. All the websites made with Duda look basically the same. All the animations are bad, and the button builder still does not use CSS3's new features. Flex editor is not user-friendly and not detailed like Webflow or EditorX. All the widgets just help users with basic things, non of them is detailed or not updated. There are big issues about vertically aligning elements, you can't align elements without custom CSS. Duda is great, but it needs to be updated with CSS3 and HTML5 features. In this situation, it feels like too old a service. And the last thing, the multi-language feature does not work well. You can't use the personalization feature with multi-language websites. This means you can't add a pop-up to secondary language with the Duda pop-up builder.
As I mentioned earlier, it's best of the best if we talk about SEO, Core Web Vitals, and Local Business features. None of the existed services can beat Duda. Also it helps to agencies with client management features.
Easy to use, love the click and drop widgets. Technical support has been amazing!!
Limited platform, if you are not a graphic design that can create offline to upload, you'd be pretty screwed. However, I am so it hasn't affected my ability to use it. My big hate and user beware tip: if you add all your products to the demo store note when you upgrade to a store that you can take payments from you will lose ALL demo store products and work. Duda will help you retrieve the information. Otherwise I have enjoyed using Duda.co for a client's site.
Technical probs with the estore
That the websites are truly responsive. Most of the other web builders are not as good at this and do not have the years of experience in building a template builder for this.
It can be a little buggy as they are always updating, etc. Support is good though handling issues
Restaurants mainly are the sites I have been building and they have all you would want for.
The mobile site converter and mobile specific targeting. Easy to set up and fast. Didn't need to start from scratch. Took our existing design and matched the mobile one with very few tweaks automatically.
A little limited in options. Advanced options cost a bit more. Large images scale weirdly sometimes.
In a pinch to get a mobile friendly site up without a complete redesign was great. Temporary gap filler for complete site redesign. Solved the google non-mobile friendly SEO penalty overnight.
really helped when doing a responsive site was impossible
you have to keep up the site separately and subscription based
not much at this point since responsive sites now are all we do
I love that Duda makes it easy to quickly put together a mobile-friendly website - or a whole bunch of them!
I found the design interface to be a bit buggy and had to always remember how to work around these quirks without messing up my work.
We created tons of mobile websites for a variety of publications and customers, really quickly and easily.
Customer service very responsive at the start.
Not a well-known platform. Subscription information a little obscure about hosting vs. total package.
Customer service made transition fairly seamless transitioning website from agency account to standalone account.
I used to love it then they took their chat function away pros- - Anton Shulke from marketing
pros - tech support only during working hours package for one site 24 pounds per month dashboard easy to use beats Wordpress hands down cons if you migrate you have to do it in work hours or you will loose your site until working hours site can not be migrated off platform
its used to now its not
Simplicity and robust for regular website building - showcase website or simple database management
When it comes to any other types of websites they are not equipped E-commerce is not there at all for a high price as well Real estate websites cannot build them The job board website cannot make them The marketplace website cannot make them Booking websites cannot make them Nothing with logic either Duda has a remarkable ability to show off but falls short of all the promises they have. Most of their product is half built with a lot of marketing and nothing stable or completely polished.
The simplicity of building showcase website and security on the website knowing that I don't have to worry about hackers

Very easy to build small, simple responsive websites quickly. No need to have a developer. The comfort of a secure, hosted solution. I like having access to all of my client sites within 1 dashboard. I like the ability to completely customize desktop, tablet and mobile.
Many missing features that our clients need/expect. Duda is very slow to meet the many (basic) feature requests from the community. The company is not at all transparent in sharing its road map and will never even hint at a timeline. When they do release something new, they usually miss the mark and provide features THEY think are good, leaving the user community disappointed.
I can produce (simple) websites at low (or no) development cost without advanced developer skills. It has enabled me to serve a very frugal market.
Very easy to use and fairly intuitive, especially when it comes to creating the mobile website redirect (simple html pasted into website code). The most endearing feature of this program is the ability for it to pull all information from the desktop site and auto-populate into a potential mobile site.
The redirect can get difficult depending on the website server and often times glitchy. This does not fix any type of SEO issues with current search engine algorithms. Software is a bit outdated and there are some nuiances that make it tricky to use. Overall, would have been great 5+ years ago, but pretty irrelevent now.
We implemented DudaMobile (mobile friendly websites) about five years ago as a value added service for some of our customers. At this time, there was a new emphasis on mobile websites. Many of our clients (optometry offices) had responsive desktop websites, but no type of mobile presence. This was an easy fix with DudaMobile. All we had to do was pull their desktop site info into the program and edit it as necessary, then a simple redirect link was generated and if a customer visited their site from a mobile device it redirected them to the 'mobilewebsiteserver.com.' I would assume this had negative effects with their SEO when further Google updates were rolled out and there was an emphasis on mobile first with their domains. This was a temporary fix, but it doesn't seem as relevant now.
Drag and drop to add modules is very user-friendly.
Limited creativity. Don't always link well with our main website.
My company's main website is not mobile-friendly. We began using Duda as an affordable alternative to redoing our entire site. Duda was very easy to set up as an auto-redirect and much more affordable than hiring someone to update our website to be compatible with mobile.
It is a relatively easy to use editor, similar to Squarespace and Webflow. It is also relatively hard to completely break because of a lack of flexibility.
It lacks the flexibility required for truly great websites or complex scenarios. Great for launching a website about a local bakery or hairdresser but not a B2B solution.
We build and work with lots of different CMS, Duda is just one that we stumble across from time to time.
At first, I loved that I could drag/drop to create decent-looking pages. After a year of using it, however, I have found many kinks with it. It constantly freezes, so if you're doing big changes, the system just can't handle it and the only way to revert back will be the refresh and risk losing everything. It's incredibly slow, frustrating, and overall just not as user-friendly as I initially thought.
Responsive design? Who are you kidding. You basically have to just deal with some parts looking bad because if you adjust one thing on desktop, mobile gets completely messed up. Makes it really frustrating when you have just as many users on desktop as you do on mobile. It's also really frustrating that simple things like popups are made to be so difficult. I'd already created a pop-up, but found it impossible to create a rule for that design because the site kept freezing and refusing to show it, instead showing a 404 error in its place.
I wish I'd realized the issues with Duda sooner. It's a little late now to get my client to switch to a different platform. Luckily, his web design needs aren't super extensive, so I can generally get by figuring stuff out as I go. For business owners who want a super responsive, well-designed site though, this is not the platform for you.
White Label capabilities and ease of use for myself, my team, or my clients.
They stopped caring about small agencies and only started caring about those agencies spending thousands a month with them. Seems like their investors are calling the shots now, and the Duda we signed up for has taken a back seat.
ROI for web design is much higher now because we can charge less and build sites faster which lets us build more websites than we would be able to using WordPress.
It is a simple turnkey solution that lacks constant maintenance
Duda is for simple business card websites only. There is no scalability, no dynamic functions, lack of support. Plus they hobble the few easy tools they Whitelabel making the platform weak and ineffective. The white-labeling available for agencies isn't worth the hamstringing you must endure being on the platform. Also, the blogging platform is almost useless. Often I will use a blog as a way to easily catalog information in sites. There will be none of that in duda. It is the MSPaint of website builders.
Duda created more problems than it promised to solve. Honestly, I feel duped into buying into the platform. Plus, support takes 3 days to respond.
