Setup was easy and user friendly. Pros Design and deployment was very easy. This software is suitable for anyone who has no web experience. The graphic and design tools are easy to understand and use. Cons The main area that we felt was lacking was the integration to facebook business and email platforms in order to run paid advertising and email campaigns. Alternatives considered [WooCommerce](https://www.capterra.com/p/225601/WooCommerce/)[Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing Squarespace The price and easy of deployment were unmatched.

Marketing Specialist Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It allows me to create a website in a fast and editable way" November 17, 2021 5.0 Squarespace is to a great extent prescribed by me and my partners to any individual who needs to make a blog or a site for their diversion purposes. You can distribute merchandise, have music, and have different impacts of that nature on there. Pros I guess Squarespace is for the individuals who have no real way to set up a site previously. furthermore, it's a decent choice for the individuals who need to blog as well as have a site. Authentically Organized and simple to explore dashboard, various modules are accessible to give new abilities, Thousands of free and minimal expense topics are accessible, you can oblige any plan you envision. Cons Having the rigidity to utilize topics and modules and web designers with picture sliders and further elements, I needed to become acclimated to adding modules. When I got its hang, it was straightforward and use. Review Source JP Julianne P. Owner Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Website building for beginners " April 25, 2023 5.0 Simple and efficient! My website was up & running w/in an hour? Looks like I paid an expert to do it! Pros How user and beginner friendly it was, I had tried another sit prior and had so much trouble editing. Cons Nothing as of yet- I am still discovering all of its amazing features and add ons! Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Reason for choosing Squarespace It just made the best sense, walked me through everything I needed and I didn’t have to problem solve. Switched from [Universe](https://www.capterra.com/p/132555/Universe/) Not enough editing features and hard to navigate Review Source ST Stephanie T. owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace is great if you don't ever need to talk to anyone" April 13, 2021 5.0 I'm happy with this platform and will continue to use it. I find the templates really easy to plug into. Overall it helps one to create a beautiful and authentic website. The plug-ins like Tax-Jar, Acuity and Stripe are all very helpful and you have to be diligent at learning about each plug-in separately from Sqaurespace or you won't get the most out of it. I wish there was an option for a clear customer service contact. You have to really search for it and being on a higher tiered payment schedule I'd like the option to simply call a rep for the things I can't figure out only own. Pros I love the templates and ease of use. My website is beautiful and I feel proud of what I've created. Cons There're things that just don't work. I can't seem to authenticate my email address in the marketing section. I've read all the HELP info and watched the videos and it's just not working. The thing about Squarespace is that they really are great and they don't have reliable or even accessible customer service. I also don't like that everything is ala cart. At first that made sense but it would be awesome if there was a flat fee for different tiers of business. I say this because until you realize what you need for your business you might not even know that Squarespace has it... Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Career and Leadership Coach, Founder Management Consulting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use and beautiful templates" December 3, 2019 5.0 Overall I've had a great experience with Squarespace. I'm able to have a professional looking website up and and running, with no hassle. I have somewhere to direct potential clients, and clients can book time with me directly from my website. It's done exactly what I wanted it to do and I didn't have to spend a lot of time setting it up. I don't have to do any maintenance, which means I can focus on my core business. Pros I really love the templates that Squarespace offers and the software's ease of use. I spent an afternoon putting my website together and it was just so easy to launch. I'm in a service business and I use my website as a place to send people. I'm not interested in driving a lot of traffic to my website, it's something for me to have. It's so easy to update and if I ever change the name of my company or the domain, I won't feel like I've invested all this time into it, that I'll feel bad letter it go. At the same time, I'm really proud of it, I love the way it looks and it's so easy to update. Cons I notice my computer slows down a bit when I have it open. I do have an older computer, so it's slow in general, but when I open up Squarespace to update my website in Safari, it slows things down. Not a huge deal since I don't update it that much anymore, but I do notice it when I'm on it.

Office Manager Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Value - widely used!" May 10, 2023 5.0 It's been great, recommend Squarespace and it's easy to use for small businesses just entering the social and online presence. Pros Squarespace is recognizable and useful. Easy to use for customers and for the business. Cons The areas that I'm familiar with, I don't have any issues. Review Source SP Sadhan P. Founder and CEO Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "One of the best Website Builder for Multi-purpose use" February 20, 2022 5.0 Pros Website speed is high built on Squarespace. Drag and drop feature helps to create pages in minutes. It is ecommerce friendly. Cons I have nothing that can be considered as cons yet. Review Source MY Melissa Y. Operations Manager Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Website " August 25, 2023 5.0 Its not bad just hard to design your webpage Pros I like the event calendar and the videos to help you. Cons Web design - It is hard to make changes, line things up, add things, and add new pics and articles to pages. It doesn't really give you good options and its hard to figure out. Not very easy to use. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Product Manager Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Powerful Tool to Launch Any Business" March 3, 2022 5.0 Pros I am a huge fan of Squarespace's ability to help users spin up a website or other web assets quickly, and in a way that any member of the team with even a modicum of technical ability can contribute or make edits if necessary. The graphic user interface makes developing and designing an easy and efficient process. Cons Squarespace does lack in some of the advanced functionality and features of other sites, but that is made up for in its ability excel in allowing users to quickly and efficiently generate new content. Review Source DB Daeus B. President Food Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "SquareSpace" November 23, 2022 4.0 Pros Integrating other software (FareHarbor, Google, etc.) is vital to our company's growth and Squarespace achieves this effortlessly. Some reporting features and analytics can be improved by having a dashboard where we can see each of our domain breakdowns in one spot rather than having to click through each domain. Cons Multiple domain analytics can be improved to a central location/dashboard. Review Source Ethan M. Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Got me started with certain industries but was never a preferred means" December 15, 2020 4.0 I have used this platform to sell and promote a festival that I assisted in curating. I do branding and artistic direction and squarespace made it quite easy to inject my own images in a manner that made a beautiful website while retaining thousands of dollars worth of sales yearly. Pros Popular platform with ease of use so high it makes it quite simple for people to manage a website in general and has assisted many in the build process of websites that have served me and my colleagues for years at a time. Simplistic building features with a solid framework allows for clean construction and sleek looks in a manner that allows those that do not know extensive amounts of code to design. Cons Not as many features or plugin support as Wordpress and is not open source. Templates in some respect are generic and design elements may be bland in some respects if not customized appropriately Switched from [Weebly](https://www.capterra.com/p/246168/Weebly/) Used simultaneously with another production company and preferred squarespace to a certain degree. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Executive Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Its a decent software, but not the absolute best" March 4, 2022 4.0 I would say my overall experience has been quite positive with Sqaurespace. Its a good software that makes building a website quite easy. Its particularly great for those who are new to building and designing website. Pros You can easily and quickly build a website with Squarespace even if you're not an experienced website designer. I know many people who had no background in designing websites and have managed to create decent websites with Squarespace. Cons I think the overall user interface can be improved to make it easier to use. Also a more detailed menu on the sides would make it easier to find the exact feature you're looking for. Switched from [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Nothing in particular. I just wanted to try another software for building a website and as Squarespace seems to be quite popular these days, I thought I'd give it a go. Review Source KL Kelly L. Artist Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Online Shop and Portfolio" November 11, 2020 5.0 Very good. I would recommend it to others looking to build a website. Pros I use this as a host for my website and for an online illustration portfolio and shop. It is a little pricey all upfront, but if I break down the business plan per month, its $18 a month, which I make back in my store, so I always break even/make money. I like that there are templates that you dont have to know any coding for and they are pretty intuative. Same with the store. I've used this for atleast 5 years now and don't plan to change. Cons I've been waiting for them to take away the need to enter a physical address when people buy a free digital download from my store, and I contacted customer service and they were kinda dumb and didn't really help me with my issue, but that's been the only issue I've had in years. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Wordpress was a ton of work to get up and running, and it was hard to make anything look good. I like squarespace's templates a lot. Review Source KB Kim B. Owner Writing and Editing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Top quality website and easy to create!" January 21, 2020 5.0 So far all my experiences are incredible! They get back to me right away whenever I have a question or issue. Fast to resolve. Pros Top quality website! Very easy to create a professional looking website all by myself. The templates are wonderful and suitable for all different types of programs. Absolutely love it! Cons The monthly subscription program is pricey but a less expensive option then what I've used before. Alternatives considered [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/)[GoDaddy Website Builder](https://www.capterra.com/p/182500/GoDaddy-Website-Builder/) Reason for choosing Squarespace I switched from another website provider that gauged me with up-charges and constant problems with logging in. I tried an inexpensive provider, and it was impossible with complicated programming. Switched from [GoDaddy Website Builder](https://www.capterra.com/p/182500/GoDaddy-Website-Builder/) I switched from another website provider that gauged me with up-charges and constant problems with logging in.

Environmental Graphic Designer Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace is Simply the Best" August 16, 2018 5.0 Squarespace allowed me to create an easy to navigate portfolio site for my creative work, ready to view for both desktop computers and mobile devices. It was incredibly easy and worth the time and money. Pros Squarespace has been the easiest website creation and hosting provider I've ever used. Compared to the several I had tried before, the utility and intuitiveness of Squarespace makes it very worthwhile in terms of effort to put in, and value received. I've been using it for my portfolio website going on 4 or 5 years now, and I'll use it forever. It provides a breadth of gorgeous templates that can each be customized to reflect your own unique work, message, or product. Setting up a marketplace or storefront is also possible, everything is just made easy. Cons Some templates and specific options can be obtuse when trying to find something to change. Say you have a certain width between thumbnails you want to change, or the color of a certain link or text, it may take some digging to find. But once you do, you've learned some of the ins and outs of Squarespace and are prepared to change this again in the future. Review Source MR Mariel R. Planner Engineer Renewables & Environment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Un increíble creador de sitios web con algunas limitaciones" March 29, 2023 5.0 En general, he tenido una gran experiencia con Squarespace. Pros He estado usando Squarespace para mi sitio web durante varios meses y debo decir que es un creador de sitios web fantástico. Las plantillas son impresionantes y la interfaz de arrastrar y soltar es muy fácil de usar, incluso para alguien sin experiencia en diseño de sitios web como yo. Cons Squarespace es, sin duda, un gran creador de sitios web, pero tiene algunas limitaciones. Por ejemplo, la plataforma no permite mucha personalización más allá de lo que está disponible en las plantillas. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Health care provider Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "My recommendation on squarespace " May 19, 2023 4.0 It is satisfied Pros I like the ease of using and the development that happens on website making Cons The period of the free trail is so small Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/)[Blogger](https://www.capterra.com/p/231507/Blogger/) The prices of the alternative is cheaper Review Source LW Laran W. Owner Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good overall calendar options." June 17, 2021 4.0 While I used Squarespace as my web host for a year, I chose another platform because of it's reported robust features and price point. I was sorely disappointed in the calendar features of my chosen platform and came back to the scheduling piece of Squarespace because it met most of my needs. As I restarted, I had a small issue that was fixed in a few short hours. Pros After trying several calendar options out, including one that came with the website platform I chose, I came back to Acuity/Squarespace Scheduling because it was easy to accomplish what I needed. I also like that it has options to grow as my company does. Cons I am integrating it with another platform and I don't have the option to change the size of font to match other working on my website. That's a little irritating. Switched from [Kartra](https://www.capterra.com/p/184946/Kartra/) Kartra's calendar functions leave a lot to be desired for people who offer repeated classes. Review Source Ryan H. Marketing Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Squarespace Review" December 1, 2022 5.0 Pros As far as ease of use goes, you can't beat Squarespace. It's so easy to build websites. But there are many website builders that are easy to use. What sets Squarespace apart is that it's not only easy to use, but unbelievably high quality. I am able to edit our company website and design beautiful pages without knowing any code. Cons It doesn't run well in Mozilla Firefox, my default browser. It also doesn't have a very good way to capture form responses. The form tool as a whole isn't amazing. Review Source SB STEVEN B. PRODUCTION COORDINATOR Photography Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great functionality and templates" November 26, 2019 5.0 As referenced above, we were creating a space for a book release and publicity campaign for a photographer releasing his memoir. Squarespace was able to successfully host the site and create big impact for the release. Pros The sleek design, easy functionality and classy templates are great for quickly starting a site that will stand out and be professional. I recently created a site for a colleague's book release and publicity campaign--a photographer with incredibly exacting standards--and Squarespace's templates and ability to host high quality images worked well to make an impactful site. Cons At times, if you'd like to do something customizable that doesn't quite fit the template, you can run into some slowdowns. In our case, we wanted very specific features that the template didn't give us--it got us 90% of the way. However, once we hopped on the phone and chat with customer service, our team was able to communicate our needs and have them executed into the page. Reason for choosing Squarespace WE have a previous site with Squarespace and it still seems to be the front runner for functionality, customer service, ease of updating and looking damn good. Review Source Kimberly B. Copywriter/ Sole Proprietor Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Intuitive Website Management/ Build" July 12, 2022 5.0 Overall positive- would recommend this platform for bloggers, small businesses, and first time website design. Pros Great for small businesses and those less technologically experienced, drag and drop features are great. Cons There’s a clear branding “look” that makes it obvious that your website is a Squarespace site. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Needed something that required fewer updates. Review Source DJ Dylan J. Brand Manager Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace is affordable but needs work" May 9, 2023 5.0 It’s pretty good. Pros It’s easy to set up the website if you have basic programming skills. The help portion will basically guide you through everything. There are lots of ways to customize it and make it your own. Cons The employees have no idea how to do anything, they can barely understand any questions. They also don’t allow readers to leave a thumbs up on an article. That’s a fail. Review Source Grace S. Independent Web Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Clean, Modern, User-Friendly Web Design" June 3, 2019 5.0 My clients have had no complaints! It is a very reliable program. Pros I love that Squarespace is both user-friendly and customizable at the same time. As an independent web designer, it's nice to have the option to use coding to customize my work, while knowing that my clients will be able to access basic functionality as well. I also love Squarespace's templates – every template, no matter which style, has a very clean and modern look. Even the newest web designer can create something sophisticated with the help of the many templates. Cons Some templates have differing customizable elements (ie, some things that are customizable on one template are not on another). They do have style guides that list the functionality of all the templates, but I do wish there was an easier way to differentiate between the options (maybe a template comparison tool?). Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)[Weebly](https://www.capterra.com/p/246168/Weebly/) Reason for choosing Squarespace I think the overall design/feel of a Squarespace site is much more clean and modern than that of its competitors. It is also very user-friendly with a nice workflow. Review Source LB Lucrecia B. Owner/ photographer Photography Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Not my cup of tea" May 4, 2023 3.0 Squarespace was ok for a beginner because you can use templates. As long as you don't mind a very simple clean design with not many options, you are good with Squarespace. Pros I liked that it was easy to setup if you are just looking for a very simple website. It was ok to navigate simple menus. Cons It just lacked a lot of features and customization that I felt was ultra necessary for me to create a website that shows my style. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer CEO Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A little rigid in design but has easy to read analytics " September 23, 2020 4.0 I enjoy Squarespace's analytics and the predesigned themes. However, I wish this product was more fluid when it comes to its design element. Nevertheless, this product is fairly user friendly (it just lacks room for creative expression) Pros Squarespace had great themes to select from. It is also very easy to code in your desired design with HTML and CSS. My favorite feature of Squarespace is its analytics. The analytics feature is extremely easy to read and detailed. Updated site settings and SEO was also a very streamlined process. Cons I disliked how rigid squarespace is when it comes to designing the product. I did not like how the fonts were limited as well as the sizing of the text. I also dislike how difficult it is to move items around when editing the site. Review Source Similar Products Featured
