Cliux vs Duda
Pick Cliux if you want a freeform canvas, eleven built-in apps with no per-site add-ons and a flat agency price that includes proposals, contracts and invoices. Pick Duda if you want an agency operating model with unlimited client accounts, end-to-end white label and a stated uptime figure.
In Duda’s own words: “The AI Web Presence Platform for Pros”

Moving over
How a move from Duda works
There is no import tool. This is what a switch involves, step by step.
There is no import tool. Open the old site beside a new Cliux site and rebuild each page on the canvas; text and images copy across, the layout is redrawn.
Publish on your free Cliux address, share the password-protected preview with whoever signs off, and keep the old site live until you are happy.
Point your own domain at Cliux: two DNS records, and the certificate is issued for you; the Cliux address keeps working beside it.

Neither: Cliux takes 0% and Duda states 0% on its native ecommerce and bookings. Payment processor fees apply on both.

Cliux Agency is one monthly price for 15 client sites and 10 seats. Duda's Agency plan includes 4 published projects, with additional published sites billed each.
