Liz K.: Hi, my name is Liz. I am a Senior Paralegal at a niche law firm, but I'm also involved in operations at our resident techie outside of our external IT department. Our company size is approximately 30 people, and I would give Squarespace a one or two. Okay. We use Squarespace to host our company's basically about website with the details of what we do. Not our client portals, but just our company's main webpage. We are in the process of migrating to Wix. I have extensive experience with coding languages as well as multiple hosting providers. Wix is one that I'm not familiar with. And in the brief time I've already started using Wix, I prefer it to Squarespace dramatically. And I'm still not even fully up to everything with it. The one feature I do like about Squarespace is how easy it is to set up an application as well as the menus and their sub-menus, and add external links that in a way that it looks appealing. I hate their way to set up webpages. I hate how finicky it is. I hate how little control you have. I hate that you can't set the pixels with it, do you want the columns, you have to drag and drop everything. At some points, I wish I could write it into code rather than use their built-in thing, but that's not an option. I do not like how, for example, on our employees page, I have to click the add picture, add text, add this, add spacers in certain order. It gets all messed up. You drag and drop a block the wrong way, the whole website gets screwy. And then there's no one to... Or it's just very un-user-friendly for a site that advertises itself to be user-friendly. And again, I am very experienced with web design and I find it very frustrating, so I couldn't imagine someone who's never built a website before trying to figure it out.

Karissa: Hi, I'm Karissa. I am the owner of my company and I give CommentSold a five out of five review, for more reviews like this click below. Before I used CommentSold, I had used Shopify for my online store and I just was not really getting the traffic that I needed to continue. So I went from there to Squarespace and Squarespace was not really helping either. So I decided to transition to CommentSold, which has a great connection to Facebook and allowing you to do lives through Facebook to help your online store grow. I chose CommentSold for multiple reasons. One of them a friend had recommended the product or the software for me, and I really trusted her opinion. I also chose CommentSold because of the direct connection with Facebook and Instagram, making it super easy to run my business and CommentSold is a very easy platform to work on. The people are very helpful in helping you figure out what you need to do with the platform. And overall, it has just been a really great experience. For the most part getting started with CommentSold was super easy. They have the plan to get you started laid out. There were a few hiccups on my end, but nothing that the support team could not help me with. So I was very pleased with getting started and getting the ball rolling and the help that I received. I definitely recommend CommentSold if you have an online retail business, because CommentSold is really going to help you take your business a step further and integrating it into social media platforms. That's where your customers are. So that's where you want to be having your online business and CommentSold is perfect for that.
