Has anyone found a good way to give clients access only to specific CMS Collections in Webflow?

For example, I’d like clients to edit things like:

• Testimonials
• Events
• Blog posts
• Team members

…but without giving them access to the rest of the site structure/design.

The goal is mainly to prevent accidental changes to:

• Homepage layouts
• Service pages
• Images/design system
• SEO settings
• UX copy

I contacted Webflow support and the response I got was that this level of permission control is apparently only possible on the Enterprise plan with the “Content Editor” role.

That feels a bit extreme for smaller studios/agencies managing client sites.

Curious to hear how others are handling this:

• Are you using Editor mode only?
• Training clients?
• Duplicating collections/workflows?
• Any workaround or best practice?

Would love to hear real-world experiences from agencies/freelancers managing client CMS access.
