Review Source WW WREN W. Office Administrator Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Super clean!" July 10, 2025 4.0 It's great for documentation, though some folks find it less efficient for daily project management. Overall though, it's an amazing tool for collaboration and documentation, but there is a bit of a learning curve. Pros Clean and easy to use, great features for creating and organizing documentation. Integrates seamlessly with other tools like Jira. The templates are super helpful for getting started quickly, and it's really easy to customize pages. Cons Pricing can be a bit steep, especially for small teams. It takes some time to get used to all the features and advanced configurations, which can be overwhelming for new users.

Executive Clinical Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The New Standard" September 27, 2024 5.0 We needed a way to accept donations electronically at events that occur offsite. Our plan was to utilize Squarespace as a tool in our tool chest of accepting donations. We quickly learned that limiting ourselves to using it only at offsite events was not maximizing the benefits they offer. In the two years we have used Squarespace, we have gone from using it a few times a month to replacing our entire payment system. With companies like Squarespace offering low fees and processing costs while maximizing the value for user, I don’t know how traditional payment processors will be able to compete. Pros Squarespace revolutionized our ability to fundraise. We have multiple events per month that take place off site, either at churches or other venues. The primary goal of these events is to raise funds. We have reached a point where very few people carry cash, and even fewer carry checks. In order to capitalize on the good will we generate at these events and maximize the raised funds, we need to be able to immediately accept donations. Squarespace lets us do that, with a transaction fee that is similar to the standalone card reader we utilize at our office. Cons When we initially began using Squarespace, we encountered some pushback from people who were hesitant to hand their credit card over to us with our phone in hand. However, Squarespace has continually provided updates that address these concerns. Switched from [Elavon](https://www.capterra.com/p/183057/Elavon/) We did not initially plan on switching to Squarespace for all our payment processing. However, once we saw how well it handled offsite transactions, we quickly decided to switch to Squarespace for all our payment processing. Review Source SW Stephanie W.

Easy for customers to use as well. Quick to set up and start using. Cons No real cons. I've only use a few different softwares to collect money / sell service and Squarespace is my favorite so far. Switched from [PayPal](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/) I like Squarespace set up and overall look better. Review Source JB Joy B. Communications and Events Officer Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very easy for basic websites" October 7, 2024 4.0 I really like using Squarespace for our small charity. We have a relatively simple website and it is really easy to edit and add to our website as needed. I don't need to use any code or special plugins to build the website which is great. Pros It is easy to set up a basic website and use the drag and drop editor. It's very straightforward to pick up from the start and you don't have to be a web developer to use it. Cons The design templates and styles can be restricting. Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Squarespace was much more straightforward to use Review Source KC Kimberly C. Administrative Consultant Executive Office Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The Best Website Builder for the Inexperienced " December 28, 2025 4.0 Pros I love how easy it is to navigate and understand. As a first time business owner with limited funds to hire a web designer, Squarespace definitely got the job done for someone with no web design experience and my website came out beautifully. Cons I would say the only downside is there were limited templates that fit my needs or it could’ve just been me not really knowing what I wanted in general. Alternatives considered [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Reason for choosing Squarespace Wordpress was too technical for me since I’m not a web designer. I just needed a simple and easy to put together website until I could afford a professional. Review Source Morgan U. Owner Facilities Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Squarespace is fulfilled and sufficient for any website" December 15, 2024 5.0 Great experience using the Squarespace features Pros I enjoyed all the different layout options for building a website Cons That you could not make the webpage public without paying Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Better features, and easier to navigate! Review Source NR Nicole R. Marketing Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Works for Basic Needs" October 17, 2025 3.0 Overall Squarespace works for clients with basic needs but typically we recommend custom websites through WordPress for most situations. Pros Squarespace simplifies having a website and selling products and/or services online. You can have a site with a clean look without much development or design experience. Cons The biggest cons I have experienced with Squarespace is first it is not very customizable. Some settings you have to change globally instead of a page by page basis. Secondly, the analytics reporting is too rudimentary. Review Source lJ latrease J. Beautican Cosmetics Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Product" March 19, 2026 5.0 It was a pleasant experience overall; my staff find it easy to navigate with little to no bugs to report Pros Product flexibility, the subscription service was pretty good, and the digital products were very easy for my staff Cons Cost was a little surprising but overall, it was still worth the time and purchase that we put into it Review Source LR London R. Founder and Operator Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Why would you not use Squarespace?" March 15, 2025 5.0 Great! I’ve built 5 sites from it - two of which were rebuilds from Wordpress sites. Can’t say enough good things about Squarespace. Pros Ease of use and customization ability, beautiful templates Cons Hmm hard to find anything. Super user friendly. Maybe if the email marketing was more robust rather than needing a 3rd party. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Wordpress’s interface on the back end is garbage. Review Source Mararia D. UIUX Designer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Create Beautiful and Stunning Portfolios using Squarespace!" December 16, 2024 5.0 My overall experience is great. A person doesn't need to have in-depth website development skills to set up a portfolio or business websites as Squarespace provides customizable options using drag & Drop features that simplifies the process. Additionally, it supports third party integrations with other software's extending its overall capability. Overall Squarespace meets all my expectations. Pros What i love most about Squarespace is that it has one of the best user-friendly interfaces as compared to other web building platforms. The templates provided are beautiful and customizable using the drag and drop features and requires little technical knowledge to start. Additionally, it provides hosting solutions and SEO Analytics to help a user understand their clients better once the site is hosted. Cons The software is perfect for beginners and pros and thereby i like everything about Squarespace. Review Source LD Lindsey D. Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Basic needs, stable, reliable, and helpful website builder. " March 13, 2025 3.0 I’ve used it personally and in a work environment. Built a website in high school and then in the restaurant i work in. Pros Good website builder for the most basic needs. Cons It has the capabilities to do things only at the bare minimum. It’s a fairly known site but it’s not a long term web site if you’re going to grow a large brand/company Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Thought it would be a step above, but truly it’s another basic website builder. A much more in depth platform is necessary for my needs. Review Source TW Tammy W.

Principal Recruiter Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great product, highly recommend!" November 1, 2024 5.0 Overall, I was able to host, renew my website, update and track leads/manage potential customers using the website and periodically make updates to it so I'm happy with it. Pros Easy to use, navigate and to setup. I've been using Squarespace for about 6 years now. I built a website from the ground up using their tools, was able to change up the background, UI, design easily with the tools. Also, I was able to add a page with password protection and its an amazing product. Cons I guess with every website design template, there are limitation was our imagination. I just wish I was able to setup a forum for discussion or a subscription based type of product but I don't think they have such option. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Reason for choosing Squarespace Tried it and I like Squarespace better with the options and UI. Review Source CD Chris D. Owner Alternative Medicine Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A strong entry level web design and host platform" February 14, 2025 4.0 Squarespace was a great entry point to getting my website up and hosted properly. Pros Lots of domain opportunities, and the websites look very modern and cool. Cons For the price, I expected more functionality within the website builder. It did not have the features I was looking for, so I was forced to look for a 3rd party option. Review Source JR Josep R.

Game Desginer Computer Games Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Squarespace is great for first time website builders." October 28, 2024 3.0 I have had a lot of success building and updating websites with squarespace and managing payment through it but have looked into alternatives with better price points and flexibility. Pros User friendliness is next to none when it comes to managing a website for a small business. Cons The cost of squarespace is high for a a single or two person business operation. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Graphic Designer Entertainment Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easiest Website Designing Tool " May 26, 2025 5.0 It is an excellent choice for Individuals and SMB's as it helps them create a professional online presence with limited hassle. Pros The ease of creating website, portfolio and hosting it online. Designing a website using templates and pre-defined fonts and varied choice of colors makes it easy for a non-coding professional to build a website. Also, online store is a feature to be used for selling products or offering content. Cons It does not allow customizations so one has to use only pre-designed structures so that restricts the personal touch. Review Source JD Justin D.

December 4, 2024 5.0 I personally am the web designer and advertisement guru at our company and my time is valuable because I got stuff to do. I can't be spending all day and night laboring over the base design of a site when we have product to release and sales to push. Squarespace made my job infinitely easier and faster within the first 5 minutes of the trial run. It's just to easy to look so good. Pros My company has been in the market for a website design, template & hosting service for quite some time and believe me when I say, "Wow & thanks Squarespace!" Finally, someone gets it. Easy, quick, quality and professional. Your one stop shop for all your website needs. Cons So far there really is nothing to dislike, we just started using this service so maybe after sometime if we're really nit picking, we can find something wrong with it but thus far nothing whatsoever to complain about.
