Wix Website Builder Reviews

“has free features”

Pros

Starting out with it made a lot of sense because the free version already lets you do quite a lot. There's also a wide range of templates so it's simple to find something that matches the kind of site you want and your personal style. I also appreciated the auto save feature and publishing the website was fairly easy. Another nice touch is being able to check how the site looks on mobile devices.

Cons

Issue is that some of the more appealing features are locked behind paid plans although that's understandable. I also noticed the website can feel a bit heavy at times and pages may load more slowly especially when the site includes a lot of media like photos and videos.

“useful tools for small businesses”

Pros

Helped us put together a really good website and comes with plenty of features and tools that are genuinely useful. The interface also looks well designed especially for new users who are just getting started. It's a very practical option for small businesses that want to build a website, as long as they're willing to spend a little time learning how to manage it.

Cons

A drawback is the templates since at times they can feel a bit too similar to one another.

“not expensive”

Pros

Working with this software is very simple, the features are excellent and best of all, it's affordable.

Cons

There are only a few extra features I'd still like to see added but aside from that, I don't really think it needs much improvement. In my opinion, adding a couple of new features would make it even better.

“Beginner friendly website builder”

Pros

Coming in with zero web or graphic design experience, I was still able to put together my website with this tool without much trouble. The platform is very user friendly and even people who have little to no background in web design can use it comfortably.

Cons

I do not have many bad things to say about it. Still it has crashed on me several times and that can be pretty frustrating when I am in the middle of working.

“anyone can use”

Pros

Right from the start the interface feels very user friendly and the e-commerce funnel works really well for both beginners starting a business and more experienced business owners.

Cons

One problem is that the premium features are not all available in one place and the analytics tools are only included in the paid plans.

“Positive experience”

Pros

Using this software was much more easy than I ever expected. It's affordable, very user friendly and still incredibly powerful at the same time. When I first began, I had no idea it would be this simple to use but now I'm a huge fan and honestly expect to stick with it for a long time. My favorite part of the platform is the video making tool. Along with the videos I create, I can place them into a template through this software and send newsletters out to my subscribers and customers. It also does a really solid job of tracking my subscribers and gives me an organized analytics page. I don't think it feels confusing at all. The only thing is that it can get a bit pricey if you want the different services that help your site stand out in Google search although they do offer discounts from time to time.

Cons

I don't have any major complaints at this point because it's doing everything I've needed it to do. If I had to mention something, it might be that the platform is so feature-rich that I may never fully use all of its capabilities. Another possible issue would only come up later on if I ever needed to move my site to a different host since that could create a few complications. Still, I'm locked in for another couple of years so that's not really a concern for me right now.

“Reliable support”

Pros

Picking a template and then customizing it to match the company's needs is great. The support is also really reliable so whenever you're unsure how a feature works, help is available right away.

Cons

There wasn't anything I disliked. It worked perfectly.

“My thoughts”

Pros

Gives you a wide range of elements to work with so making updates is quick. You can add or remove text boxes, lightboxes buttons, videos and more in just a few clicks. The interface feels very accessible and user friendly.

Cons

Page loading speed could definitely be better and it tends to feel especially slow on mobile devices. Since visitors usually don't wait around for pages to load, this can end up lowering site traffic.

“accessible platform”

Pros

Running a site with it has been a really positive experience especially as an independent creator or small business owner. The platform feels very accessible and makes it simple to build a polished, impressive website without much trouble.

Cons

it has handled everything I've needed from this kind of service so I haven't come across any real downsides to mention yet.

“Too limited for ecommerce”

Pros

The interface is very user friendly and clearly built for people without technical experience.

Cons

At the same time, it feels far too limited and lacks many essential ecommerce features which makes it impractical to use for that purpose.

“many design features available”

Pros

There are plenty of design features to work with along with a wide range of industry-specific templates. The platform is easy to use and the built-in QA and support are really solid.

Cons

It would be even better with more helpful content around drop-shipping and affiliate marketing to support sales efforts.

“Valuable tool”

Pros

Getting a website or landing page up and running feels very easy with this flexible and valuable tool. It makes the whole building process much more manageable though it still helps to plan ahead around which external elements you may need, such as plugins and themes and how many of them to use. That has been especially useful for me while creating my websites.

Cons

Websites built with it can be a high-value option for designers and business owners who need access to their content and information. That said security does require attention especially when dealing with different plugins since they need to be managed carefully to avoid issues.

“Quick storefront setup”

Pros

We went with this tool to put together a one-time online storefront for selling a few products, mainly because it keeps the whole process simple. The interface made it fast to add products, move things around, connect our payment information and keep an eye on sales without much effort. Since time matters, the low cost of it makes it feel well worth paying for.

Cons

Its shipping cost options are pretty limited although that has not been much of a concern for us.

“professional site creation made simple”

Pros

So simple to get a professional looking website up and running even without any knowledge of coding, HTML or web design. It offers plenty of features so you can build out a site with a store, videos, images and more without feeling lost. For a small yearly cost, it gives a business a strong online presence which is incredibly important in today's digital world. There's also a solid selection of templates which makes the whole process even more approachable.

Cons

I honestly don't have much to complain about. It could feel a bit restrictive for experienced web developers but for a small business owner, it works well as a simple and practical tool.

“Fast sales”

Pros

Launching a site was quick and easy and I was able to start making sales almost right away.

Cons

The templates felt pretty basic and the editor could use more options and flexibility.

“Website live in under an hour”

Pros

As someone who isn't very technical, this was a real lifesaver. The templates gave me a strong starting point and I had a fully functional website up and running in less than an hour. The menus felt accessible and being able to switch between desktop and mobile views made it really helpful to check how each page would look.

Cons

It would be even better if a few premium features were included in the basic plans even with lower limits so users could test them out before deciding to upgrade.

“adaptive website editor”

Pros

Our church was already using this software before I got involved and after working with it, I can see why. The backend is easy to figure out and even people with very little experience can update the site design without much trouble. That makes it a solid option for beginners or for websites that don't need constant changes. If updates are only occasional or if less experienced users are the ones managing the site, this works well.

Cons

Coming from a web design and development background, building a site with a drag and drop editor feels a bit inefficient. It also makes it pretty easy to end up with layouts that feel uneven along with inconsistent fonts, font sizes or heading structure if you're not careful. On top of that, creating a properly mobile-responsive website in it is more difficult than using a more traditional approach with HTML and CSS.

“Drag and drop makes building fun”

Pros

Right away, the drag and drop feature won me over. It makes putting a site together much more convenient.

Cons

The AI part isn't really my favorite. Creating a website needs more detailed input than it seems to handle.

“Good fit for business”

Pros

It's a powerful yet simple tool for building an optimal, professional website that fits current market needs. Without a doubt, it's an excellent option for getting your business online.

Cons

Customer support link is hard to find and I usually have to look for it through Google instead. It would be much better if it were more visible inside the admin platform.

“professional website in minutes”

Pros

Starting with one of the simple templates, I can customize my site in a way that still looks polished and professional. It also makes updates fast and connecting both my email and my business social media accounts is very easy.

Cons

I honestly don't have any complaints about it. It's been a really valuable asset for my business.
