Prismic vs DragDrop
Prismic and DragDrop agree on the big idea: pages are made of reusable pieces. Prismic calls them slices and renders them through your frontend. DragDrop calls them blocks and renders them for you, hosting and domain included.
One site per project
Many sites, one platform
TL;DR
Prismic thinks in slices. DragDrop thinks in blocks, and ships the site too.
Use Prismic if…
- You already have a frontend and a team that likes owning it.
- Your developers are comfortable with the slice workflow.
- You want a friendly editing UI on top of a headless setup.
Use DragDrop if…
- You want the same component idea without a frontend project.
- You want hosting, custom domain, and SSL from the free plan up.
- You want 90+ ready blocks plus a marketplace, not a build backlog.
- You want code access in the studio when you need it.
Key differences.
Same idea, fewer moving parts
Slices and blocks are the same good idea: reusable content components. The difference is what happens next. Prismic hands off to your codebase. DragDrop renders, hosts, and serves the page itself.
A running start
DragDrop ships 90+ blocks, templates you can fork, and a marketplace where free listings install in one click. You compose instead of building from zero.
Code on tap
Open any block as real code in the studio, or build custom blocks in the code editor and publish without redeploying.
The same job, two ways.
Shipping a page for one client in Prismic, and for every client at once in the DragDrop studio.

Switching from Prismic, in three moves.
Most teams run both platforms in parallel for a week and cut over on a quiet afternoon.
Bring your content
Export pages, posts, and media from Prismic. Our importer maps them onto blocks, and our team helps with the fiddly parts when you ask.
Rebuild with blocks
Recompose your layouts from 90+ ready-made blocks. Anything custom, a developer can rebuild as a block right inside the studio.
Point your domain
Connect your domain, SSL issues automatically, and 301 redirects carry over every ranking you’ve earned. Nothing breaks on launch day.
