Executive Pastor Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace saved our website" July 26, 2018 5.0 Pros Our website was out of date and because no one on our team knew how to use code we could not update it. We are a modern church and we needed a website that matched that. We choose to go with Squarespace and don't regret it! It is super easy to use, it is secure, has loads of features, and is extremely customizable. Cons If you are looking for something like WordPress with endless abilities and build from the ground up, you could technically do it but Squarespace probably isn't your go to.

We will continue to use them to build client websites for the foreseeable future. Pros Squarespace is hands down the best templated site builder around. It's incredibly versatile and easy to use. You have many templates to choose from and depending on the subscription you purchase you can also have code editing ability, which is hugely helpful. Cons It can, at times, feel limited. But, it is a templated CMS platform and that's to be expected to it's hard to ding them for that. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Associate Acquisition Marketing, Strategy and Planning Oil & Energy Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace" November 29, 2018 5.0 Squarespace is a great solution if your team have varying levels of web experience. If you can follow directions and like the templates provided this is an ideal solution to create a beautifully designed site. The cost is a bit steep compared to other solutions, but the sleek interface and functionality can't be beat. You get what you pay for. Pros Sqaurespace is great for people with varying levels of web and design experience. It's incredibly intuitive and gives users the tools to build really beautiful sites. It's easy to make adjustments as needed to design and copy. I highly recommend using Squarespace if you are new to web design/content strategy. Cons The templates they are really easy to follow, but if you aren't happy with the templates provided you don't have too many options. It forces you to work within the designs they provide, which definitely makes it easy to follow but lacks creative deviation. Review Source ED Eduardo D. Director of Corporate Partnerships Music Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Allows my donations to be Mobile" June 17, 2020 5.0 Squarespace allows us to make the customer experience much faster allowing us to rapidly accept transactions. The speed in which we can operate offsets any fee's in the long run. Pros It's a very simple product to maneuver. We use this to capture donations when our job is on-the-go. It's ability to simplify the process of donations for our institution is great. It's worth the nominal fee in order to speed up transactions. Cons Unfortunately it doesn't integrate with our CRM very well. It's a pretty manual process to get the data back into our CRM. Switched from [Tessitura](https://www.capterra.com/p/111612/Tessitura-Software/) We used to take donations from Tessitura, but it was a lengthy process on the user end. It made more sense to just get thru the transaction quicker and on downtime get it back into our CRM. Review Source ER Erik R.

Pros Ease of use. Bar none. My wife and I started a wedding videographer business and Squarespace is perfect for us. Having a background in working in digital marketing and advertising agencies, Squarespace was foreign to me because we typically built on WordPress or Drupal. But now that I've discovered SS, I'll never go back. Whether it's creating new pages, blog content, or changing headers and copy for SEO purposes - I'd suggest to every creative to start with SS as their CMS. Cons Could use more functionality. I'm not a coder, and I never will be. BUT, I can say there were times in the past when I was helping write for WordPress site when I could insert a plug-in or have a developer edit the site to our liking. Apparently something like 20% of the Internet is built on WordPress, and I don't doubt that. SS lacks the enormous community that WP users have as well as a million plug-ins and themes to choose from - however I would never switch from SS because it will always support my lack of "coderness" I need to be able to properly build a beautful WP site.

CIO Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Squarespace" June 3, 2021 5.0 Overall, I am happy with Squarespace and what it can do for my own business! Pros Easier than ever before to create and edit my own website. For something that was once an intimidating process, it is really easy to update and edit my own site. It's a great platform! Cons While it's easy to use, I am still limited by the assigned dimensions etc of a website hosting platform. Switched from [GoDaddy Website Builder](https://www.capterra.com/p/182500/GoDaddy-Website-Builder/) Squarespace is easier to use and more cost effective. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Event Manager Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Using Squarespace makes my life so much easier as a small business owner! " November 21, 2017 5.0 Pros I love the number of templates offered. Squarespace's design team really took the time to create different templates that work for any kind of business/hobby. Cons Although their design features/style editor does entail a lot of options, I wish it was organized better. Instead of clicking on a page to edit, you have to backtrack out of the page section and go into the style editor. It would be easier if it was in one place. Secondly, I wish the resizing of images on a page worked easier. Review Source CH Cindy H. Digital Marketing Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace is it! " September 30, 2020 5.0 Very pleased with how easy it is to use and how seamless and modern sites look Pros Easy to use and has a lot of great templates. Simple to make changes and update site. Changing templates easily transfers all original content. Cons You only get 1 free domain and Additional domains usually always end up costing closer to $70 instead of $20. Alternatives considered [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Reason for choosing Squarespace Easier to use Review Source Caroline S. Director Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to use microsite/landing page and blog" May 18, 2023 5.0 Pros I like that Squarespace is intuitive and allows you to easily create turnkey microsites for individual clients (our internal use case) Cons There are a lot of features/options to familiarize yourself with Review Source Shannon C. Brand Manager / Content Specialist Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My Go to for Elegant Sites" July 16, 2019 5.0 I like Squarespace a lot. The sites turn out beautifully and my clients are generally pleased. Issues only arise when they want more functionality out of a platform that has several limitations. Pros For my clients who are looking for a beautiful site that they can manage on their own, once designed, I prefer Squarespace. They offer stylish and functional templates that make creating a professional site easy. Cons Their "personal" plan is very limited. There are no autosaves for pages and posts. Their cover page options are limited. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Virtual Assistant Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use Website builder" October 26, 2019 4.0 Squarespace is easy to use and to set up. There are some features that could be moved to trail program Pros It was easy to put together our online store and blog that accompanied it. The set up was seamless and the use of templates were nice. Cons There were some options that were only available if you paid for the full use of the site, some of those features that were behind the paywall would have been nice to have used in the trial to get the full feel for the whole product. Review Source Thea H. Operations Manager Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simple website builder, but with limitations" August 26, 2018 4.0 Pros Squarespace is really user friendly for setting up an new website and making adjustments for visually appealing websites. It's straight forward, you have options of what you want to add to the webpage and then build your pages in blocks. Cons Depending on what type of website you are making I feel like squarespace sites can be limiting; it works well for portfolios, simple sales, and informational sites. If you are trying to really make something custom, I would suggest looking somewhere else. Because of its simplicity of use, the flip side of is that your hands are bound if you are trying to adjust the HTML. Also, it would be nice if there was an integrated option for creating users that have unique passwords. There are workarounds, but I feel like that should be something standard. Review Source LR Linda R. Small Business Consultant Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Not the Easiest Website Software to Use" May 10, 2021 2.0 I struggled with updating my client's website, ultimately counselling the business to switch to an easier website platform. Pros I really don't like this software. Without video training, the average person (and even those with experience, like myself) would not be able to build a site. Cons As a Small Business Consultant, having used about 6 different website software packages, this is by far the most difficult! I literally could not get the page to size properly without having to watch a video. That is not "easy to use!" I counselled my client to switch. Review Source TJ Tiffany J. HR Manager Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "DIY Website and Domain" September 12, 2018 5.0 Overall, Squarespace is a HUGE money saver for those who do not need in depth functionality on their website and may just want a simple landing page with some information/contact buttons. Pros I have no experience in web development, but Squarespace made it SO simple to create our website and domain with just a few clicks of a button. It is VERY user friendly and the templates to start your website are easily customizable. The ability to purchase a domain and ease of connected a new domain to our site was mind blowing. Cons For a beginner, it takes a little trial and error to figure out exactly which design options apply to which pages. I think Squarespace is meant for the average joe with little developer experience, which limits some deeper functionality. Review Source MJ MJ J. Managing Partner Publishing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace is the best choice for growth hacking your website" September 17, 2018 5.0 Pros Multiple blogs! Having a website with multiple blogs, each with their own rss feed, allowed us to quickly and easily rank our website first in Google search results and allowed us to reach an Alexa ranking of under 900k within a few short months. This was a feature that not even Wordpress could provide us with. Cons It would be nice if there were more template designs to choose from. It's a bit limited and there aren't really any strong options for creating ecommerce stores or community websites like Buzzfeed-type sites. Review Source Nachi S. Head Personal Development & Life Coach Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A website builder that is pretty" July 5, 2018 5.0 Pros Squarespace is pretty, one can make a website that fits with what their vision is and it will look professionally done. While I do have a professional create my website, it is incredibly easy for me to go in and create extra pages, or anything I'd like without any design experience. Wonderful tool. Cons I wish there was a capability to do something about the white space on the sides of the webpages... sometimes it does kill the vibe of the page. Review Source FÇ Ferhat Ç. Project Manager Machinery Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace has excellent third party integrations" October 21, 2022 5.0 Pros My experience with Squarespace is quite fine since it offers a quite comprehensive infrastucture for us. Cons Although their current third party integrations are quite good, they still needs to increase them in number. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer NOC/Devops Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Bang for your Buck" March 5, 2019 4.0 Pros It is good bang for your buck, good functionality and features. Cons Uptime is not great, and there is no SLA or reimbursement for downtime. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Groups Director Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best-looking, simplest, and most powerful template website builder that I've found. " March 8, 2018 5.0 Pros The templates, combined with What-you-see-is-what-you-get editing (drag and drop) makes it incredibly easy to make a fantastic website without coding at all. Cons There isn't much that I dislike... the only thing I wish could get better would be a longer free trial for the average user. Squarespace Circle members receive a 6-month free trial, but for a new organization getting a Squarespace site started, it's only a 2-week trial - which isn't long enough to get it off the ground. Review Source Jay B. Owner Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Probably the best web host on the market for those without an HTML Background" September 11, 2018 5.0 Overall SquareSpace has always been a fantastic service. I used it over the course of 3 years for my own website and never had a single issue with it outside of some customization options I felt the service was lacking. At the end of the day SquareSpace is for users who need a clean looking website, with minimal HTML/CSS knowledge. If you're looking for a completely customizable system this is not for you. If you want something super easy to work with, then stop right now and start a SquareSpace account. Pros Ease of Use WYSIWYG Editor Back End Features Analytics Tools Cons Lacks some more in depth coding features Locked into templates Review Source KO Kathie O.

Pros It is so versatile and easy to use. I love how the blogs can be changed up and how much I can even add to my blog!! The SEO is awesome too!!! Cons I honestly can’t think of anything!!!

Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)[Kajabi](https://www.capterra.com/p/154682/Kajabi/) Reason for choosing Squarespace Definitely the cost and the ease of creating a high quality website and blog!!!!! Review Source YS Yolonda S. Digital Marketing Professor & Entrepreneur Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Quickly Design your Site " April 20, 2022 5.0 Squarespace is my first option for business owners on a lean budget and with little to no technical experience. They can easily update their site and blogs without the fear of breaking the site. It is also easy to set up a shop for customers to purchase goods and services. Pros Squarespace is easy to set up and very user-friendly. Most importantly, users don't have to worry about security and cyber attacks. Squarespace does the heavy lifting to ensure that sites are safe. This is very important for start-ups and small businesses that don't have the money to pay tech teams to maintain and monitor their site. Cons I wish Squarespace had more templates to choose from but overall great product for a great price. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Not ideal for security and blocking cyberattacks.

Chief Do-Gooder Public Relations and Communications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Proud Squarespace User" January 16, 2019 4.0 I've been using Squarepace for just over two years, and love it. In fact, my web designer and I just did a blog post and Facebook Live about the pros and cons. We're both fans, and I'm happy with my website being hosted here. It's pretty easy to use, has a lot of capabilities, and really like the company as well. I've recommended this platform many times, and will continue to do so! Pros Once you get the hang of it, it's very easy to use. And they have awesome customer service for when you have questions, as well as a pretty comprehensive knowledge base. I like that I can easily update my site on my own without outside help. Cons I've just started using the e-commerce functions over the past six months or so, and it's fine for now, but I wish it was more robust to grow with me. Who knows, though! They do make a lot of improvements every year. Review Source Similar Products Featured
