Wix Website Builder Reviews

“Templates for every need”

Pros

One of the things I enjoy most about this platform is the wide variety of templates it offers, ranging from resume designs to flyers, calendars, announcements and more. They also come with very attractive-looking designs which makes the platform even more appealing to use.

Cons

Feels like a very complete tool to me and I honestly do not see any flaws in it. I would definitely recommend it.

“affordable with lots of features”

Pros

Getting started with it feels very easy and simple. It's also quite affordable compared with other similar platforms which makes it even more appealing. Another thing I appreciate is the wide range of features you can add, like a blog, an online store, a forum and plenty more.

Cons

At times, websites built on the software can take a while to load.

“Flexibility provided”

Pros

The wide range of templates, along with the many ways you can use and customize them, gives plenty of inspiration when designing a website. The platform is very simple to use and you can add more tools depending on how you want your web presence to look and function.

Cons

For me, it's really more of a beginner-level program.

“fun way to build a site”

Pros

As someone still fairly new to websites, blogs and how they work, putting together a unique one with the software didn't feel overly complicated which was really encouraging.

Cons

This isn't really a major downside since it can definitely be improved but having some easy documentation explaining what makes something a webshop, a website or a blog would be helpful.

“powerful website tools on the go”

Pros

Whenever I talk to other entrepreneurs, I'm always happy to recommend this because it's so user friendly, has all the business tools in one place and lets me manage everything right from my phone.

Cons

The first five minutes felt a bit overwhelming with so much information at once. I had to click through everything and figure out what each feature actually did but after that small inconvenience, it all started to feel very natural.

“efficient image tools”

Pros

Coming from a student perspective, this tool feels like a very mature web editor backed by years of experience in the web design market. It offers a complete interface with practical, well-defined tools and the level of customization available for the default templates is impressively broad. On top of that, adding and managing images on a website is one of the strongest parts of the platform compared with other builders.

Cons

Where it falls short the most is teamwork. In situations where collaborating on projects is essential, it has not provided the strongest team features. I've run into cases as a student where group work really matters and the software doesn't offer enough support for that kind of workflow. A big improvement would be adding real-time collaboration so multiple people can work on the site at the same time.

“Marketing tools”

Pros

Making and designing websites feels smooth especially with the free CSS templates available. The landing pages and product catalog features also do a lot to support marketing efforts.

Cons

Hasn't disappointed me at any point since I began using it.

“creative freedom provided”

Pros

Right from the start it feels very user friendly, comes packed with plenty of extra features and gives you a lot of room to be creative. Its e-commerce tools are really strong and it lets you customize the template with a lot of freedom to make the site look however you want.

Cons

You can't switch templates once you've started and if you try, it can send you back to square one. It also takes a bit of digital know-how because there are so many feature and design choices to sort through.

“quick site launch and customization”

Pros

Launching a website with it is surprisingly simple. The whole process feels very easy and you can modify pretty much everything the template allows. It lets you personalize your site the way you want using just your mouse, along with images and videos which makes building it very convenient.

Cons

Compared with WordPress, the software is not the best option for large, dynamic websites or online stores. Even though it offers plenty of plugins, you still run into clear limits with what you can actually do on the platform. The builder can also feel heavy so loading it and making edits sometimes takes a while. On top of that, it does not work well if you need multiple people editing the site at the same time.

“beautiful templates and customization”

Pros

One thing I really enjoy about this software is its beautiful selection of templates. They not only look great but they're also very simple to customize whether that means switching fonts, changing colors or adjusting the design to match exactly what I had in mind for my website.

Cons

The only part that felt a bit challenging was the integration side although that may have had more to do with my lack of experience handling that kind of setup.

“templates and simple editor”

Pros

Comes with plenty of themes and templates to choose from which is really helpful when you don't have any coding experience. The interface is easy, interactive and comfortable to work with. It also includes a good range of content-sharing options that fit what I need.

Cons

Feels limited when it comes to development options. I also run into lag at times when publishing a blog and it can take quite a while for the post to go live. Another drawback is that the software doesn't provide the same level of security options that some competitors offer.

“useful website builder”

Pros

It's easy to use and manage the website and overall it's been very useful.

Cons

The pricing feels fairly high and as a new business owner that can be hard to handle.

“Saves time and money”

Pros

Starting off was much easier thanks to its built in Artificial Design Intelligence (ADI). It automatically creates images and content and even links your site to your social media accounts. For anyone who has no real idea where to begin with website layout design, this tool is incredibly helpful. The ADI feature basically handles the hard part by choosing designs and layouts that best fit your audience. When I first used this tool to build my website, it ended up saving me a lot of both time and money.

Cons

Its annoying that you can't switch to a completely new template once you've chosen one. You're only able to modify the design within that existing template. That can feel a bit limiting especially when you want to change templates and give your website a totally new look.

“Very configurable”

Pros

The drag and drop builder is the standout feature here. It makes setting everything up simple and putting a website together feels very easy.

Cons

One thing that really frustrates me is not being able to switch to a different template after the site is published without having to start all over again from scratch.

“Quick edits”

Pros

Coming over from WordPress, I ended up using the software because a graphic designer had built the site where I was publishing news. After getting used to it, the platform felt very easy to work witheven if the layout isn't immediately accessible at first when you're coming from WordPress. One thing I really appreciated was how simple it is to make visual changes since everything can be edited directly online.

Cons

An area that could be improved is giving more importance to text since the site seems to be built mainly to highlight graphic elements as much as possible.

“beginner friendly site creation”

Pros

With all the tutorials available through the online help center, getting started with this software feels very easyeven for someone completely new. One of the software's biggest strengths is how simple the building process is, letting you create polished business or portfolio websites without needing to learn any coding.

Cons

The downside is that accessing the premium features costs quite a bit especially if you want a custom URL without the the software branding tag. It also doesn't really offer a trial period that gives you enough time to get comfortable with everything during the first week.

“accessible setup and organization”

Pros

Working around it is very easy. From the very beginning, everything feels accessible and really well organized which makes the whole platform comfortable to use.

Cons

Running and managing paid campaigns from the software is the part I'm not very happy with. Even though the option is there, I don't really like how campaign management works from within the platform.

“great drag and drop builder”

Pros

The drag and drop tools make building a site really easy and the whole platform is very user friendly.

Cons

I haven't run into any problems with this software at all. Everything has been working really well.

“custom templates”

Pros

Using this has been a really positive experience for me as a website builder. The biggest advantages are the wide range of customization options including artistic illustrations and templates that help make a site stand out. It also lets you create a professional logo for your brand and customer support is simple to reach whenever needed. Another thing I value is how the software helps you discover new ways to present services to customers. On top of that, connecting it with the business tools I already use, like Google Drive, PayPal and Zapier, was fairly easy.

Cons

Didn't come across any features that felt unnecessary for a business website. The only problem I noticed a couple of times was that the software would lag a bit when the internet connection wasn't ideal so pages took a little longer to load. Even then, it only happened twice. Other than that, I had no trouble at all integrating the software with the business processes and tools I already rely on.

“professional templates that deliver”

Pros

Feels very easy to work with and the pre-built templates give you a polished foundation that usually looks far better than anything I could put together from scratch. The designs come across as very professional and it's simple to customize them so the site still feels like your own.

Cons

There really isn't much for me to complain about with the software. It has worked very well for the website projects I've done for other people and it's been simple both to use myself and to teach to others. The features and web parts for adding design elements are strong. If I had to point to one thing, I'd say I'd love to see an even bigger selection of templates.
