Pros I was able to create and set up my website with some ease. Tried to set up an ecommerce site with my website. Cons it is difficult to set up ecommerce online store. and to go edit it is even more of a challenge. Wish there was a video tutorial that I could watch since I am new to this.

Pros I like how simple Squarespace is to use. It is intuitive and produces a great product.

Now instead of requiring a coding genius we can communicate with our customers with ease and simplicity Review Source KH Katie H. Manager Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Perfect for my interior design portfolio!" September 4, 2024 4.0 Squarespace offers a great platform for creating a stunning website, and its ease of use makes it simple to collaborate with a professional designer. Outsourcing the build is straightforward, allowing you to achieve a polished, custom look without needing to dive into the technical details yourself. It’s perfect for getting a professional-quality website with minimal effort. Pros Squarespace made building and managing my professional interior design website easy. It offers beautiful templates! It's perfect for anyone looking to create a polished online presence without needing technical skills. Cons What I like least about Squarespace is the limited customization options compared to other platforms and the somewhat higher pricing, especially when adding advanced features. These can be restrictive if you need a highly personalized site or are on a tight budget. Review Source DC David C. Vice President Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Jack of all trades website builder" October 13, 2024 5.0 Pros Perfect for any ''small'' website, very cheap and so simple to use to create a beautiful website, no matter if transactional or not. Cons I think it isn't well suited for a huge/big volume e-commerce that needs plenty of customizations. Review Source LS Lillian S. Credentialing Consultant Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy affordable website" November 3, 2024 5.0 It has been good. I have been able to get clients with my website. Pros You can easily make your own website without a professional doing it. Cons It is difficult to get in touch with customer service. Review Source MM Meghan M. Owner Mental Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use! " September 12, 2024 5.0 Very positive! While I wish there was a live person I could call about domain related questions, I have really appreciated how easy it is to build the site. Pros I love how easy it is to use. I have never created websites, and now I feel like I have the basic skills to do it! Cons Domains are a little confusing, and I can't find a good customer service phone number for them. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Reason for choosing Squarespace I started a site on both, but I felt Squarespace was easier to use, and had better stock photos to choose from. Review Source MW Meagan W. Manager Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good service but a little pricey. " November 13, 2024 4.0 Good but the cost was too high to continue. Which was a shame I did like the integrations and solid templates. Pros Good templates, customer service is available. This is a big pro as many companies fail at the customer service lately. Lots of integrations. Cons Quite expensive, I had to leave and go to a different provider. Customization was limited however I did like their templates. Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Wix wasn’t providing enough options for me. However squarespace also struggled in the customization department. Review Source SD Salvatore D. Mr. Food & Beverages Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Squarespace - It can be better" September 16, 2024 4.0 In general, after a difficult first impression, using the available help and their support, you can do almost everything. Pros I like the proposed templates, the whole e-commerce management system which offers all the useful information for the seller. Cons I find it very annoying not to have differentiated pages between PC view and smartphone view. Furthermore, it would be useful to have a sandbox system to try everything without having to make the pages and/or products public. Review Source CD Chris D. Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great software overall" October 21, 2024 4.0 Pros Super flexible platform that allowed us to build websites and also accept payments.

Finance Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "EASY TO SET UP " February 14, 2025 5.0 I work for a non-profit organization. Donors make donations using squarespace and the process is very simple. However, sometime it takes long time before they transfer the money to the bank account Pros Easy to set up website builder at a reasonable price. Cons Little concerned about leaving squarespace for another platform because I cannot take the website with me (it is their design) and I might need to start over Review Source SA Sam A. Photographer Photography Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Excellent site design and hosting." March 20, 2025 5.0 Pros Very accessible and with excellent documentation, easy to get a new site up and running and the ecommerce integration is a bonus too. Cons Very little, sometimes obscure settings are hard to fing but an online search usually finds the answer. Review Source BS Bijay S. Creative Head Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Squarespace from my view" November 11, 2024 4.0 In my view your my overall experience is that you can make websites without knowing advance codes. Go for it if you have to make portfolios, online business and more Pros Squarespace is very easy for building professional website. Even beginners can make their own website for portfolios, shops, businesses and organizations. Cons Using squarespace is good for small business, shops and portfolios but large data and enterprise website can be difficult to organize. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Complex customization for ecommerce website. Use of many different plugins to build one website Review Source BG Betsy G. Admin-webmaster Mental Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Mixed experience using Squarespace" September 20, 2024 3.0 It's not something I would pick for myself. In general, website creation has gotten more difficult over the years (particularly entering the text). Squarespace is less than pleasant to work with in this regard, but it is rich in features. Pros Squarespace has a lot of features. It's relatively easy to create a robust structure for your website. Many cool features are free like the ability to create calendars, add events, and create passwords for different parts of your website. Creating a menu system is nice and flexible. Adding links and making them operate the way you want is intuitive. Cons Entering text and formatting is the most difficult. I have over years' experience in entering text in a range of software and I find Squarespace fairly difficult. It's not smart about the default format to use on new content. Your formatting options are also limited unless you want to seriously customize. I also had problems changing the colors of my links. Just not fun entering text. I've also had issues with the ability to save current changes as a draft without publishing. Review Source LC Larissa C. Graphic Designer Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Hasn't disappointed" October 28, 2024 5.0 Been using for personal matter and professional and it hasn't disappointed Pros Easy platform to use, perfect for those with little or few knowledge regarding web design. Cons Although the user friendly aspect is great, I still wish there was more options for customizing pages. Review Source CP Chris P.

It's a very user-friendly platform with no need for coding knowledge. Cons Squarespace can be pricey, as there are no free plans, only a free trial. It can also feel limited in terms of customization. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)[WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Reason for choosing Squarespace Squarespace offered various designs and templates that caught our attention. Review Source SS Selina S. Dog Trainer Consumer Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for any capability" July 12, 2024 5.0 Easy to use, they have great customer service, as someone who had not built a website before it was simplified and looked professional. Pros I loved the versatility of use and ability to change the overall image of my website. That I could implement many pages into it, from blog posts, to a page of recommended items with links to purchase. Open up a store to sell items. There was an abundance of templates and the ease of access for others to access the website with strict permissions to make adjustments. Cons Not all of the templates were exactly what I needed. When I tried to add images from my own computer they wouldn't always line up accordingly and were stuck in a very segmented grid.

Even if you don't have any experience with websites it takes a minimal amount of time to learn. The websites are low maintenance and shipping through squarespace is simple. All of the fees and postage charges are listed in your account so manging your costs is really easy. Cons Nothing. It truly has been a great product to use for my small business and invoicing.

The sleek, modern templates have allowed me to create a visually appealing site in no time. I also appreciate how seamlessly everything integrates, from design to e-commerce, making the whole process smooth and efficient. Cons While I enjoy using Squarespace, it does have some limitations in terms of customization. If you’re looking for advanced, highly personalized features, you might feel restricted by its template-based structure. Also, some of the more advanced features can be a bit pricey, especially for small businesses or personal projects. Review Source CB Chris B. Practice Consultant Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy for anyone to create a website with Squarespace" July 16, 2024 5.0 Squarespace has been such an easy tool to use which caught me by surprise. I was intimated to start my own site but they made it so easy and the process was so fun to create and customize! Pros I have no knowledge of how to start or maintain a website and Squarespace allows such a simple website builder than anyone can use it. They offer a library of resources for help if needed but if not it is easy to jump right in and create a website based on your industry. I found the process to be fun and easy to do. Cons They have help resources for just about every topic, sometimes you have to dig a little to find what you are looking for but can usually find it. Review Source BM Bridget M.
