Brizy Cloud vs Duda for agencies: an honest comparison

The short answer

Choose Duda if you run a growing agency with staff, want fine control over what each client can edit, want clients to pay you through the platform and need a proper native store. You pay noticeably more per site for that.

Choose Brizy Cloud if cost per site matters most, you want unlimited team members without paying per seat, and most client sites are brochure sites or small shops. At 20 sites it costs roughly half as much as Duda, but its agency tooling is thinner and support below its Enterprise tier is by email.

Look at a third option if you also want to sell clients a CRM, funnels and your own packages from the same branded panel. Neither Duda nor Brizy is built around that, and we cover the alternative near the end.

What you are actually comparing

Duda is a hosted website platform built for agencies and software companies that make sites for other people. Sites, client logins, client billing, the store add-on and the AI tools all sit in one account. It is the older and more widely used of the two.

Brizy is a visual drag-and-drop builder sold in two forms: Brizy Cloud, which hosts the sites for you (on AWS, according to its pricing page), and a WordPress plugin. This guide compares Brizy Cloud, because it is the version whose agency and white-label plans people shortlist against Duda.

Neither needs code, both host client sites for you, and both let you connect each client's own domain.

Pricing: what each charges per site

Both charge per account, then add a fee for each extra site. Here are the plans agencies usually compare, in US dollars at the time of writing (October 2026).

The biggest difference is how many sites each plan includes. Brizy's Agency and White Label plans include 10 sites. Duda's include 4. Extra sites are also cheaper on Brizy. Here is the rough yearly cost of each white-label plan as your client list grows, on yearly billing, before tax and store add-ons. For Duda, that is $1,788 plus $168 for each site beyond 4. For Brizy, it is $1,590 plus $60 for each site beyond 10.

At 20 sites that works out at roughly $19 per site per month on Duda and roughly $9 on Brizy. There are two caveats. Duda's Custom plan has negotiated, tiered pricing, so at 50 sites or more ask for a quote instead of paying list price. Brizy runs frequent promotions (at the time of writing, its pricing page advertised a limited holiday offer of $1 per site), so check the renewal price of any deal before you build your margins on it.

Duda offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card. The platform fee matters less than what you charge, though. Our guide to pricing monthly website care plans shows how agencies turn a per-site cost into a healthy recurring fee.

The white-label dashboard: what your clients see

The Agency plan is not white-label on either platform, so your clients would see the vendor's name. You need the White Label plan or the top custom tier.

Duda White Label brands the website builder, the dashboard, preview pages and platform emails. Clients sign in on a branded login screen that shows your logo, colours and domain. You can also send branded emails with weekly or monthly site stats, so clients see your name every month.

Brizy Cloud White Label puts the builder on your own domain with your logo, colours and visuals, customises the emails clients receive, and includes a White Label AI Builder, so the AI site generator appears as your tool. Brizy has described white-label setup as something its own team handles with each customer. Its community forum also has at least one report of clients still seeing Brizy branding after an agency upgraded. That does not mean it will happen to you, but it is a good reason to test before you tell clients.

On either platform, run the whole client journey with a test account before launch: the invite email, login page, password reset email, editor, help links and invoices. Vendor names tend to turn up in places you did not think to check.

Team and client permissions

This is where the two differ most in daily use.

Duda charges for team seats (3 on Team, 6 on Agency and White Label, negotiable on Custom) but gives you unlimited client accounts. Team members go into permission groups such as Admin, Designer, Blogger, Sales and Store Manager, and you can create custom groups. Client permissions are set site by site, so you can let a coffee shop owner edit the menu and blog without touching the layout. Clients can leave comments directly on site previews, which saves long feedback emails. One limit: team members see every site in the account, and Duda suggests adding someone as a client if they should only see one site.

Brizy Cloud includes unlimited team members free on every plan, which helps if you work with many freelancers. Roles include Viewer, Editor, Designer and Manager under the account owner. Access works per workspace, so Brizy recommends a separate workspace for each client so they see only their own projects. The Agency and White Label plans include 10 workspaces (Enterprise is unlimited), so ask Brizy how you would handle your eleventh client before you get there.

In short, Duda gives finer control, and Brizy is cheaper if your team is large.

AI building

Duda can generate a site from a client description, a brief or a white-label onboarding form the client fills in. Its AI assistant writes and rewrites copy, and it produces page titles, meta descriptions and image alt text in bulk, which helps when you manage dozens of sites. It can also build custom widgets from a text prompt. It also connects to outside AI tools through MCP, a standard way for AI assistants to work inside other software. Standard plans include 150 AI credits a month.

Brizy Cloud asks for a site name and either a short description or a Google Business Profile, then drafts a site you refine in the visual editor. On the White Label plan, the AI builder carries your brand, so you can offer clients AI site building under your own name. Reviewers generally describe the output as a solid starting point that still needs work for more complex projects.

The same is true of both: an AI draft saves you the blank-page stage, not the whole job. Budget time for real photos, prices, opening hours and the details only the client knows.

Online stores and bookings

Neither platform includes a store in the base plan. On both, you buy it as an add-on for each store site.

Duda's native store starts at roughly $7-8 a month per site for up to 100 products. It rises to around $20-22 for 1,000 products and $45-52 for 20,000. Duda takes no transaction fee, and payments run through Stripe, PayPal, Square or Mollie. Bookings with staff calendars are included, and the Advanced and Elite tiers add automatic tax and shipping calculations (with usage limits). Duda says clients can edit their products without touching the rest of the site.

Brizy Shops runs on Ecwid and is also bought per site, on top of an active Brizy Cloud plan. List prices on Brizy's Shops page were $20 a month for up to 100 products plus digital goods, $45 for 2,500 products and $100 for unlimited products. Discount codes were often advertised. Brizy takes no cut, and your payment provider (such as Stripe or PayPal) charges its normal fees.

For a coffee shop selling gift cards or a coach selling a few packages, either is fine. If the client's business is the store, with a large catalogue, many variants and lots of apps, a dedicated platform such as Shopify (Basic is $29 a month on annual billing) is usually the better home, whichever builder you use.

Billing clients and reselling

Duda has Client Billing built in on Team and above. You connect your own Stripe account and can charge one-off fees (design, setup) and recurring fees (hosting, care plans) in one request. Sites can go live automatically after the first payment and stay live while the client keeps paying. Duda adds no fee of its own, so only Stripe's processing fees apply.

Brizy Cloud's White Label plan lists client management and billing, and Brizy says you can set your own prices. However, its pricing table puts Stripe integration under the Enterprise tier, so ask Brizy exactly how client payments reach your bank on the White Label plan. If the answer is vague, plan to invoice clients from your own accounting tool.

If reselling is new to you, our guide on how to resell websites to clients covers packages, margins and contracts.

Support and onboarding

Duda gives email support on Basic and Team, and priority support by email, chat and screen share on Agency and White Label. Custom plans get 24/7 support.

Brizy Cloud gives priority email support on Agency and White Label. Dedicated chat support, an onboarding team and a success manager come with Enterprise. Below that, you rely on email, the knowledge base, video tutorials and the community forum.

If a client rings you at 5pm because checkout has stopped working, the difference between chat and email matters. Ask both vendors for typical response times on your plan, then test them during the trial.

Where WebNewBiz fits

WebNewBiz is our product, so keep that in mind as you read this section. Duda and Brizy are website platforms first. Agencies that also sell lead follow-up, booking reminders or funnels often end up paying for a separate CRM as well. WebNewBiz puts the website, store, AI CRM and funnels in one panel that the agency brands as its own.

• Your brand throughout: your name, logo, colours and favicon on your own dashboard domain (such as app.youragency.com), with emails sent through your own SMTP.
• Client accounts: put each client on a plan with limits, then either log in as them to do the work or let them manage it themselves. You can suspend a client who stops paying.
• Your prices, your money: your own packages (recurring or one-off, with optional setup fees, in several currencies), your own storefront page, and payments into your own Stripe or PayPal account.
• Sites drafted by AI: describe the client's business, the AI drafts the site, and you edit it by chat. Depending on the plan you sell, clients also get the store, AI CRM, a funnel builder with 26 templates and workflow automations.

The honest limits: WebNewBiz is younger and smaller than Duda, with a much smaller ecosystem and community. Agency pricing is not published, so you have to ask us. Any AI draft still needs your edits and the client's real photos. If you need the most proven agency platform today, Duda is the safer choice. If you need the lowest cost per site for simple sites, Brizy Cloud wins. For more detail, see our pages on the white-label website builder for agencies and the white-label CRM for agencies.

A checklist for your trial

1. Build one real client site on each platform from start to finish, and time it.
2. Invite a test client using a spare email address, and check every email, login screen and help link for the vendor's name.
3. Give that client limited rights, then log in as them and try to change something they should not be able to.
4. Add a store with tax and shipping for the client's country, and place a test order.
5. Send yourself a test invoice through client billing and follow the money into your Stripe account.
6. Ask support a real question once on a weekday and once at the weekend, and note how long each reply takes.
7. Price your next 12 months at your current client count and at double that.
8. Ask each vendor what happens to client sites if you leave: what can be moved and what has to be rebuilt.

Quick answers

Is Brizy Cloud cheaper than Duda for agencies?

Yes, at list prices. Brizy Cloud White Label costs $1,590 a year with 10 sites included, while Duda White Label costs $149 a month on yearly billing with 4 sites. With 20 client sites that is roughly $2,190 a year on Brizy against about $4,480 on Duda, before store add-ons.

Which plan do I need for white label on each platform?

On Duda, the White Label plan ($149 a month on yearly billing) or the Custom plan. On Brizy Cloud, the White Label plan ($159 a month or $1,590 a year) or Enterprise. The Agency plans on both do not include white label.

Can clients pay me through Duda or Brizy Cloud?

Duda's Client Billing, on Team and above, charges clients through your own Stripe account with no extra Duda fee. Brizy's White Label plan lists client billing, but its pricing table shows Stripe integration under Enterprise, so confirm how payments work before you rely on it.

Which is better for client online stores?

Duda's native store is more complete: it starts at about $7-8 a month per site, supports Stripe, PayPal, Square and Mollie, and adds automatic tax and shipping on higher tiers. Brizy Shops runs on Ecwid and starts at $20 a month per site at list price. For large stores, Shopify is usually a better fit than either.

Do Duda or Brizy Cloud include a CRM for my clients?

Both are website platforms first, so agencies that sell lead follow-up usually add a separate CRM. WebNewBiz is an alternative that puts the website, store, AI CRM and funnels in one white-label panel, though it is younger and smaller than Duda.
