My experience has been such, that I have never looked to another for service - Yola has been my "go-to" for 20 years, no complaints Pros Have been Yola customer since 2004 - the customer service has always been incredible. In the begining ease of use was exemplary, however lately it seems I am lacking the ability to manage my sights, and building new sites is a little harder than I wished. Yola has maintained a 100% uptime for my site and my store. Cons Currently, I would like a blog - does not exist. The sitebuilder is no longer intuitive, it needs some help - where did the widgets go? Review Source JS Jonathan S. Owner Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "This is the service you need for your business startup" April 18, 2026 5.0 Yola was very supportive of transitioning my service to another platform. They were polite and easy to work with through the whole process Pros I used this service for three years for the first phase of my small business. Customer service was always prompt and thorough. Cons Eventually the needs for my website grew beyond the scope of what Yola provides. I am needing to integrate custom code and a lot of API reporting. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Reason for choosing Yola Their free option had the features I needed. In the next level up was economical and provided more features that I needed later Review Source AF Albert F. Business administration Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Not Good connect to Egypt" June 10, 2024 1.0 No Comment nothing to say just you need to improve your business and don't excuse any story to hide your problem Pros Before it was good but now very bad to contact overseas and i will complain in the consumer affairs Cons now very bad service ,They are trying to make an excuse about no connection Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Creator Publishing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Senior view of Yola" January 21, 2026 5.0 Pros As always, Yola provided easy access to their caring human advisors. And they solved current problems without any condescension to seniors. Thanks Eugenia and all others. Cons No problems when I have a problem and not into creating long rambles through a canyon when a clear path always emerges. Review Source CF Catol F. President Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy Interface Nice Results" June 13, 2025 5.0 Yola has great templates that are easily modified. I started using the platform 15 years ago. Started out with the free version but now use the silver. I like the features and it’s easy to use. I have made multiple websites each with a different vibe. Pros I like the interface and attractive templates. Read below the overall experience. Trying not to repeat. Cons Really can not think of any. If I have run into an issue the support has helped work out the feature I was looking for. Alternatives considered [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Reason for choosing Yola Yola was free initially and probably still is. I don’t feel like rebuilding to get the same results. Review Source SD Suzanne D. Website manager Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Gives amateurs the ability to build a professional website." October 1, 2024 5.0 Our small club has had our website with Yola for over 20 years. We find it very user friendly, even to the beginner. The website provides exactly what we need but also has the potential to do much more. Pros Yola is easy to use and navigate. It gives a professional finish to your website. The Online guidance is easy to understand and the direct communication is always answered promptly and is extremely helpful. Cons Although good value. We are a not for profit organisation and the cost is becoming an issue. However a recent offer from you of a discount, is very much appreciated, thank you. Alternatives considered [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Reason for choosing Yola The guidance from Yola is very good and invaluable for beginners. The templates offered suited us well. Review Source MF Michael F. President Telecommunications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Super support!" July 21, 2025 5.0 I've had them for 20 years; I have no plans to change from them. That should say enough in these very competitive environments. Pros The speed of response. I can actually reach a human who will do the work, although it's easy, but very time-consuming for me to learn how. Cons The fact that they do not use WordPress slows me down with local colleagues wishing to add to it. That may have changed. Im not sure Review Source LA Linda A. Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Website builder ever!" May 9, 2025 5.0 They respond so quickly to questions I have and answer completely. I also find it very easy to design a website here. Pros This website host and builder is so easy to use, and when I don't understand something, they are right there to help me and answer questions. I have used Yola for at least 15 years and would not change to another one. Cons no answer here and so can only say good things about Yola. I often recommend Yola to others. Review Source AW Alec W. Owner Farming Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I've gone back to Yola" November 16, 2024 5.0 Good all round company, helpful if help is needed, easy to use web building tool. Pros The building of the web site and SEO are easy to understand and use, if advice or actions are needed the staff are very helpful. Cons Nothing, I've gone back to Yola having switched to Ionis, which was a big mistake. Review Source AD Andrew D. Counsellor Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Jump thru hoops" December 4, 2024 5.0 I have been with them over a decade. They have jumped through hoops for me. Pros The after sale service. Always spectacular and punctual. Fees competitive. Flexible, freshly revised tech etc. Cons Nothing. Faultless. They met every request quickly and kindly. Review Source CH Cheryl H. Owner Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My Go-To for Personal Website" March 4, 2024 5.0 I've been very pleased, and in the past even recommended Yola to my clients. Most recently my needs have changed and I've had to go another route, but if the need should arise, I know that Yola will be top of the list once again. Pros That each plan offered more than one blank website. I also liked the integrations and the ability to use HTML and even CSS. Cons Most recently I chose the least expensive plan, and was disappointed to discover that it did not allow use of HTML or Google Verification and Tracking. Reason for choosing Yola Again, it was the multiple blank websites for a single plan.

CEO Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "So Easy to Use" November 15, 2023 5.0 Excellent customer service....All in All they have done well for me,I have been using them for over eight years. Pros Easy to use, customer service brilliant. I am not great at IT however was able to set up my website quickly. Happy that I can also send out bulk emails. Cons Not sure there is any... I am not great at IT so i really have not ventured outside setting up my emails and website. Reason for choosing Yola I was able to use their free website set up first. Review Source dS dawn S. Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "User Friendly " August 7, 2021 5.0 Pros Yola is easy use! It is very user friendly and I have minimal tech skills. I was pleased to be able to make not only a business website but a classroom website too! Cons Want a slightly more professional look for my business website. Review Source AS Andrea S. Therapist Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great customer service!" February 17, 2024 5.0 I would definitely recommend it to friends/colleagues. The ease of creating a website (for a novelist) and the customer service are two of the most important selling points for me when deciding on website builders. Pros Their customer service goes above and beyond to make sure that they help, and they respond rather quickly to my concerns. I feel as if they guide you step by step on how to execute a task until you are satisfied with the outcome. Cons Options of features. While they offer more options now than they did when I first began using them @ 14 years ago, there are a few extra features that I'd prefer; however, the price is more competitive/reasonable, so I'm not complaining. : ) Review Source PC Philip C. MFT-Family Therapist Mental Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for changing content and customer service" April 22, 2024 4.0 Helpful and necessary in a profession where legal and informational factors fluctuate and are out of the individual practitioner's control Pros I can change content quickly and maintain a good site and customer service always responds and eventually helps rather than wasting my time Cons The pre-set templates are limiting but this makes initial decisions easier and the site looks good Review Source TE Thomas E. Wholesale Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Online Store" January 13, 2017 5.0 We have used Yola for over a year. It is very user friendly. The setup templates are very helpful and make it easy to use. everything was easy to navigate. However we cannot customize easily but your customer service was very efficient and helpful. Pros Customer service was helpful. Cons Cannot customize it very easily. Review Source LG Laura G. Owner Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Not for me.." April 30, 2020 2.0 Although I have family members which love Yola, i can’t see the fascination. It’s bulky and old fashioned. I trialed it for a few months and then made the change to Wix. Pros The software is reasonably priced but I prefect the functionalities of other website hosts much more. Cons I found that this website builder was old fashions and just more difficult to work with in comparison to Wix. Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) I did not like Yolas features. Review Source GK Gunnar K. Owner Internet Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "You really cannot improve this in a meaningful way." October 21, 2024 5.0 Excellent. I would recommend their services to anyone interested in serious website design and publishing. Pros The whole site works great when it comes to creation of the website. Everything can be done at speed and with great output results. I love it. You can do website after website and it just works. Regarding Hosting and using domains at different hosters, it works great as well. If there is a specific wish, such as pointing some domain at an external hoster to a website at yola, this is literally done within a few hours if not faster. I cannot think of anything to improve in this regard. The service quality is better than that of amazon when it was still excellent. Cons Not every TLD is available for purchase at yola. But this is essentially a very small problem, as you can buy them at a third party and direct it to the site created in yola. Review Source RM Roxana M. Coach Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent service" November 23, 2024 5.0 I've had an excellent experience starting to design, upgrading to a silver plan and getting all the assistance I needed for publishing and connecting the domain and website name chosen. Pros I'm new to yola and site-building in general, so naturally I got a bit stuck with a couple of things in the first week. I got not only very prompt but also extremely effective assistance. Now everything is running exactly as I want to. I think it's very affordable too. Cons Block editing instructions are not very super clear - or maybe it's that I really dont know much about site-building, so it's a bit more difficult for me. Review Source DB DONALD B. Owner Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Strongly recomend" September 21, 2024 5.0 Exellent, it is very easy to create a website using Yola. They have different plan options to chose from depending on how serious and technical you want to get with. They also have awsome support! Pros Technical support help me many times when I was creating my website . They fixed the problem I had and explained how they did it so I can do it for another page on my site. Super fast reply to any of my inqueries! Cons There are some pretty advanced tools wich is good for people who are computer smart. There are also tutorials on their site to show you how to use those tools but I idn't have the time to learn all that. They also have good tech support and they performed many tasks for me. Review Source PB Philip B. Indie Author Publishing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Fulfills all my website needs" August 5, 2024 5.0 Intuitive tools with step-by-step instructions if/when needed and excellent, quick help service. Pros As a newbie to webpages, Yola has been easy to apply my design thoughts. Cons No dislikes. Good choice of blocks for initial lay-out. Review Source RJ Rebecca J. SOCIAL MEDIA Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to learn from Yola and the support is outstanding" June 9, 2024 5.0 Pros I have been using Yola for about 10 years. I have about 7 websites that run off it and I have never had an issue. I taught myself - lost a lot of my work but over time I found my groove. IN the last year or so they have upgraded the platform which is awesome! Any problems - I reach out to \[sensitive content hidden\] who has been there for awhile and she is really helpful. As a user - I need to be aware of what Yola provides and the upgrades. I believe in their efforts to make websites affordable. I live in Australia and so the $ is awful but I don't mind paying monthly. I love being part of the Yola Family! Give Yola a go! You will not regret it! Cons There is nothing here to report. There is nothing here to report. Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Due to our Australian dollar at 66cents - to your $ (meaning I pay an extra $40 to $50 more than you do in the USA)to pay for websites was just not optional for me. I use Yola for all my website bar my foundation one which is on WIX. Review Source JN Jacqueline N. Author Writing and Editing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Exceptional Company" December 4, 2023 5.0 It has been excellent for over twelve years. Pros I use Yola on a daily basis and find it intuitive and very easy to use for website building. The end results are excellent and the customer service second to none. They always answer quickly with help and solutions if I need it and go above and beyond to accommodate requests. I highly recommend them. Cons I realise this needs to be a well-rounded review, but I truly can't think of anything. I've used Yola for over 12 years and will continue to do so. The only thing I would love to see is t he ability to easily host a blog on the platform and for any links on the site to actually work when you're in preview mode in the back end. But they are very minor issues. Review Source AP Angela P. Owner & Maker Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best service around" October 18, 2023 5.0 I have used Yola for at least 10 years, and during that time I have also tried the other big webhost services but I always return to Yola. They are affordable, easy to use, and their customer support is phenomenal. Pros Most affordable service, comprehensive ecommerce platform, professional template options, HTML ability Cons I have not encountered anything I don't like about Yola Reason for choosing Yola Very well priced and provides all of the functions I need to create and run my ecommerce website.
