Squarespace Reviews

“Reliable payment process”

Pros

Their system is very easy to use. The website is clear and user friendly and setting up our own items on the terminal is simple. Also it supports multiple staff members which is a big plus.

Cons

I honestly don't have much to complain about. It has worked really well for taking and tracking payments. There may be limitations on the more advanced back-end side but I don't have enough experience there to judge that.

“works flawlessly across phones”

Pros

I have been able to use it without any issues on both Apple and Samsung Galaxy smartphones which makes it really convenient across devices.

Cons

One downside is that it deducts a minimum fee from every transaction and those charges can add up and become expensive over time.

“team-friendly website builder”

Pros

Using it with a team felt very easy and the platform was user friendly from the start.

Cons

The pricing is on the expensive side and creating duplicate websites isn't very convenient.

“A complete tool”

Pros

The interface feels very user friendly and the templates are beautiful while still offering plenty of customization. It also comes with built-in SEO, analytics and e-commerce tools which makes it really convenient to handle everything from one place.

Cons

The part I liked least was the limited flexibility when it comes to more advanced customization. A few features feel restrictive and the pricing is on the higher side compared to other platforms.

“clean layouts, polished results”

Pros

It is very user friendly, the layouts look clean and it helps create a professional looking site without needing to be a web design expert.

Cons

Getting everything set up can take a bit of time but that's pretty much expected.

“website updates without coding”

Pros

Keeping my website current and relevant has been really simple and I can manage everything without needing any programming knowledge.

Cons

At this point I really don't have any complaints and we've already renewed for a second year.

“creative freedom for entrepreneurs”

Pros

Squarespace gives you plenty of room to build, expand and be as creative as you want while still turning that creativity into profit. It really feels made for entrepreneurs and driven people who are willing to take chances and aim high.

Cons

The only downside I'd mention wasn't really the platform itself but those moments when I got a bit lazy. At the end of the day, the results you get depend a lot on your own motivation and ambition.

“simple website builder for anyone”

Pros

With it getting a website up and running was not a hassle, even without any background in building or managing one. Plus it is simple enough that just about anyone can use it and there are plenty of helpful resources available when needed. At the same time it's also simple to jump in, choose something that fits your industry and start creating. The whole process ended up being fun and enjoyable.

Cons

There are help resources covering nearly every topic but once in a while it takes a bit of digging to track down exactly what you need. Usually, though, the information is there if you keep looking.

“simple setup with polished templates”

Pros

It is very easy to use especially for someone new to building websites. The system is quite basic in a good way and the templates are simple to work with. There are also plenty of online ideas and inspiration that help you make the site look as good as possible.

Cons

It would be better if there were more template options geared toward the fashion industry. Also once you start adding a few extras, the add-on costs can build up pretty quickly.

“flexible integrations for growing brands”

Pros

Squarespace makes it simple to connect third-party apps and other integrations which adds a lot of flexibility.

Cons

One downside is that there's no free plan for very small individual users, like people who are just beginning an influencer career.

“Versatile and user friendly”

Pros

It has been a really versatile and user friendly platform to work with which is why I enjoy using it so much.

Cons

Honestly there's not much about it that I dislike.

“modern templates and quick setup”

Pros

This tool is pretty easy to use and the range of portfolio templates was a big plus. The builder includes a lot of modern looking options that help you launch a site quickly without much hassle.

Cons

The downside I ran into with the site builder was the lack of customization for my website. The convenience of using it came with a tradeoff since there were only limited changes I could make.

“clean ui with handy integrations”

Pros

The platform is simple to use, the interface is user friendly and it integrates well with the other tools we already rely on.

Cons

Building customized landing pages can be tough unless you know how to code. The spacing controls are also really frustrating and some modules just cannot be resized to the height you want.

“reliable website design companion”

Pros

Since 2019 Squarespace has been an outstanding tool for website design and content management. It's also really helpful that it includes domain search and registration features.

Cons

I honestly have not run into anything that feels like a flaw with it.

“Worth the price”

Pros

There's a wide range of features available which gives users a lot to work with.

Cons

Getting everything to behave the way I wanted took a little time to figure out but I was able to get the hang of it in the end.

“Comes with so many options”

Pros

One thing I really appreciated was how flexible it was and how much control it gave me to reshape the overall look of my website. I was able to build out all kinds of pages, from blog content to a recommendations page with purchase links and even set up a store to sell products. There were plenty of templates to choose from and it was also convenient to let other people access the site while keeping permissions strict enough that they could only make certain changes.

Cons

A few of the templates still didn't match exactly what I was looking for. I also ran into issues when uploading images from my computer since they didn't always align the way I wanted and often felt locked into a very segmented grid layout.

“Customization options are good”

Pros

Switching my existing website over to Squarespace was really easy and I liked being able to tailor the features to match exactly what I needed.

Cons

The pricing felt fairly expensive to me compared with other competitors especially when I looked at what was actually included for the cost.

“fast online store setup”

Pros

Getting an online store up and running takes just minutes and the drag and drop builder makes the whole process feel really simple.

Cons

The design side can be tricky at first when you're trying to create something visually appealing without having a background in design.

“cash-free payments everywhere”

Pros

These days I don't need to carry cash with me since I know many small vendors use Squarespace to handle my payments.

Cons

I still have not come across tap payment support on a mobile setup.

“stylish templates for fast launches”

Pros

It offers an impressive selection of website templates that make it possible for us to create and grow our site quickly, even without much technical training.

Cons

At times the landing pages take a little longer than expected to build and load. The pricing can also feel somewhat expensive.
