### "Great blogging platform"

April 1, 2024

5.0

Pros

There are lots of capabilities and features built into this blogging platform, and after a bit of a learning curve, I can take advantage of most of them.

Cons

It took me a bit longer than other blogging platforms to master, but it really is intuitive and packs a lot of tools.

### "First time user, forever customer"

February 9, 2018

5.0

If you're new to websites but want to get started fast, Squarespace is a great way to build the website you want, with a minimal learning curve. Without ever having used the service, a solid day of practice and I was comfortable with the software.

Pros

For the price and the enormous selection of beautiful, mobile-responsive themes, the incredible value and user-friendly interface is the best out of their competitors, in my opinion. Their WYSIWYG makes it incredibly easy to use, even without any development or design experience. Anyone can have a website with Squarespace.

Cons

Literally the thing I like least is their spacing tool. Sometimes I can't precisely place things in the center or where I want them exactly.

### "Highly Recommend for your website! "

August 15, 2021

5.0

I have so many clients that reach out to me via my website and it has positively impacted my business. Overall, I love it!

Pros

I love how easy it is to build a website for yourself. I'm a graphic designer and have used Squarespace since I launched my business. You have templates you can choose from and use your creativity from there.

Cons

I think Squarespace has everything that I need to have a professional website. I really like everything it has to offer!

### "Great Website Builder!"

December 4, 2018

5.0

I loved building my website with Squarespace! I was previously using the Divi template on Wordpress, and I spent 20+ hours building a website that was mediocre at best. It took me less than 4 hours to build my Squarespace website, and it looks amazing! As a small business owner with little to no experience in design and creating websites, I was looking for a place to create a beautiful, clean website at a good price and Squarespace definitely fulfilled that dream.

Pros

I love the beautiful templates that are available and it is very easy to select one and customize it. Also, I really love the free trial period to try out different templates and figure out all of Squarespace's options.

Cons

I have no complaints about Squarespace. Everything they have is easy to use and makes my website look beautiful.

### "Squarespace - Good for Blogging, Bad for ecommerce"

December 11, 2019

5.0

I liked Squarespace for the pricing and that I was able to connect my emails to my store, but I do not like it for ecommerce. I have switched to Shopify.

Pros

I really love the amount of templates Squarespace has for FREE and the pricing. For a year, you can have an ecommerce store for under $500. If you have a blog or portfolio - there are so many options available to use! It is also very easy to edit those templates yourself.

Cons

I did not love Squarespace for an ecommerce store. When compared to Shopify, there is no contest. Shopify has everything you need integrated from shipping costs to amazing analytics and the ability to sell your products on other social media platforms. With Squarespace, it seems to only be easy to sell in your country and on your website.

### "Clean, modern sites"

March 19, 2019

4.0

Great results but with administration and development was a little more intuitive, open to customization.

Pros

Absolutely love the extremely clean, modern sites offered by Squarespace. If/once you get it all set you are sure to attract clientele as UI is very appealing and sites navigation very intuitive.

Cons

Somewhat limited site layouts and definitely not the most intuitive site building solution out there. Because of this unless you spend enough time with support we're sometime limited to what we can do to selected templates.

### "Squarespace is great for the non-technical, but not the most robust"

May 21, 2019

4.0

Pretty good overall, and they fill a need, but not for the intermediate developer

Pros

Squarespace allows a non-technical user to build a decent website in a very short amount of time. The thing is, even a great designer can build something on Wix... it comes down to how to you get to the end product, and if you enjoy the interface.

Cons

Limited features and pricing isn't as flexible. Great for a beginner and can be used for more complicated projects, but other web dev platforms are more mature and can be better customized

### "Great for midlevel design and price"

April 13, 2018

4.0

While a designer was initially hired to build this website, non-technical employees are able to update and maintain the site

Pros

Super easy to start a website with limited experience. Lots of features and reasonable pricing. TONS of support available, free web training etc.

Cons

When building sites with templates, you are limited to the specific features of that template. It can be pretty disappointing to design an entire site with a template you think might work to find out it doesn't support a feature you need. Finding the appropriate template can be very difficult.

November 16, 2022

4.0

As zero knowledge of web development, this software helps me improve my work

Pros

No other software is providing such facilities. I am very happy and highly satisfied with their service. Their work is appreciable.\`

Cons

first, I start with a free trial but I am really impressed with this software I strongly recommend it to anyone who needs very good service.

June 21, 2022

It has a lot of beautiful templates to choose from, and the formatting and design tools are easy to use.

### "Great for less-savvy people to build websites."

December 3, 2022

4.0

I solve problems of delivering newsletters, as Squarespace makes email lists easy.

Pros

Squarespace makes creating, editing, and managing your website easy for people who don't know as much about websites or developing.

Cons

I don't like the text editors, as they are clunky and kinda difficult to understand compared to things like WordPress,

### "Great For Beginners "

December 7, 2019

4.0

Again, I’ve on used this for my personal website and it’s been a breeze.

Pros

I used this for my own personal T-shirt line. I needed something pre/packaged and easy to use and this was it! Great tool to customize things to your liking, step by step instructions and suggestions all make this software a must for those who have no clue as to what they're doing.

Cons

I have loved everything about this software so far. So I do not have any complaints or suggestions for improvement.

### "Easy enough to get a professional looking website at an affordable price"

August 4, 2018

4.0

I host my personal blog and website with Squarespace.

Pros

Squarespace has one of the best UI/UX in the drag & drop website building industry. Pricing is decent and affordable. I host my personal blog on Squarespace and the themes are fantastic. Love the platform.

Cons

Their blogging editor is one of the worst I've ever seen. It's not at all intuitive. It's a distraction. Lacks proper writing tools and elements like quotes are represented as blocks which makes writing hard.

### "Best website builder out there!"

August 30, 2019

5.0

Pros

I have been using Squarespace for about a year now for my photography business and I can't complain! Love how easy it is to use and all of the awesome template options. You can change templates at any time and get a preview before the making the change permanent. A bit pricey a month but honestly totally worth it if you want something that is professional looking and easy to customize.

Cons

The only con I would say is not being able to customize a template more but other than that I love SS.

### "Beautiful design capability but somewhat counterintuitive "

March 5, 2019

5.0

Pros

There are so many beautiful designs on Squarespace, and I love that it is integrated with photo share sites so that you can add free, hi-res photos.

Cons

It is shockingly counterintuitive to figure out: as someone with a design background, I had a surprisingly hard time figuring out how to build the actual site. This is not for someone who wants to have total control over customization, or for someone who isn’t familiar with putting together a website.

### "Great for a Basic Website/Store Front"

July 31, 2020

5.0

Overall, this has allowed us to grow in a great way that we didn't think was possible before!

Pros

We use this for our store's website. It allows us to easily add items, edit, delete, etc. It has been awesome to be able to grow our store in this way with Square Space.

Cons

There are occasionally issues with the userfriendly-ness of it on our end - things like changing the front photos, adding categories vs. tags, etc. These are not terrible issues though and we are usually able to get quick support from the software.

July 20, 2022

5.0

Pros

I used squarespace for years. It probably has the most amount of templates to choose from and they are very easy to customize.

Cons

The price is a bit higher than their competitors. You are hooked in because many influencers have a discount code to try the product.

### "Easy to use and beautiful website builder"

5.0

Pros

Their site builder is so easy and intuitive to use. Their templates are cutting-edge in design. I also love how fast it is to make changes and see those changes in real-time.

Cons

I wish it was better at integrating their web forms with my CRM, Keap.

### "The perfect solution for a graphic designer with limited coding abilities!"

June 8, 2018

4.0

It's an easy way to create an online portfolio as someone who can only write CSS and HTML. No coding needed!

Pros

This is an affordable service and it does exactly what I need it to. The templates are clean and function well. The responsive design options are also nice.

Cons

There are some limitations as to what you can do, as can be expected. You can inject code if you wish though. And I haven't found the limitations to not being able to write custom HTML to be a major hindrance.

### "Squarespace"

June 3, 2021

5.0

Overall, my experience with squarespace has been positive, and their advertising campaigns (using YouTube influencers, etc) are highly effective.

Pros

This product makes buying and building your own website very easy and intuitive, and offers templates for a variety of different website types (so you can make one without any web design/programming experience). They offer this at a much more reasonable price than their competitors (wix, etc). They also offer 24/7 support, which is nice.

Cons

It would be nice if they offered a website-domain email account with their "personal" website package, as some other competitors do.

Switched from

[Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)

Squarespace has more reasonable annual pricing for the website features I needed.

### "Great for Non-Tech People"

February 21, 2019

4.0

Pros

Squarespace is an excellent software for people looking to build a professional looking website for their business. I used Squarespace a few years ago to build a website for my mother. Although I am a front end developer, I built her website using Squarespace so that she can easily make updates herself.

Cons

The layout for mobile screens was not the best when I used this software a few years ago. I hope the layout issues with websites built using Squarespace have been addressed and fixed.

### "I lovvvveee Squarespace"

December 21, 2018

5.0

Pros

I have a small business, and Squarespace is a beautiful and affordable option for running my website. Its unbelievably easy to set up and get going, and the templates are perfect for galleries. I am somewhat tech savvy, but don't have the time or bandwidth to spend on building out and managing a custom site, so this has made my life.

Cons

No cons. I honestly love Squarespace. Its affordable, beautiful, and truly very easy to use. I would recommend it to anyone who needs to build a website and doesn't know where to start.
