### "“An Outstanding and The Best Website Builder”"

February 12, 2021

5.0

Mobirise website builder is the best website builder amongst all other website builders on the internet with its drag and drop blocks feature you don't need any coding experience whatsoever, with its fancy ready made templates you are good to go. With a single click you can start building your eCommerce or other kinds of website. It has exciting features of adding embedded YouTube videos , Vimeo videos, Facebook comments, SoundCloud tracks, embedded Facebook, Instagram and Twitter page news feeds to your website. Its countdown timer feature is awesome especially for internet marketers who wants to propel their prospects to buy their stuffs right away, not forgetting the contact-us form feature which you can add to your website to generate leads. My overall experience with Mobirise website builder is excellent.

Pros

Mobirise website builder has eye catchy templates, it is mobile responsive, any website built through this software can be optimized for search engines through its SEO section. This software made it possible for its users to build fast loading websites through its AMP feature (Accelerated Mobile Page). For an Android app developer, mobilerise made it possible for me to design html5 fancy templates using its rich features of bootstrap which makes the templates to adjust well on all mobile devices then I finally compile the HTML files generated by mobirise into .apk file using an external software. I love its icons, countdown timer and the most interesting part of this software is, you can host your website on mobirise subdomain or point your custom domain to their server which saves you extra money of purchasing a web hosting.

Cons

If by any reason you change your computer, retrieving your raw mobirise website projects on a new computer using your mobirise registered account is not possible. Seems like they don't backup raw website projects of their users on their server. Free versions of mobirise has embed footer link that can't be removed unless you have a basic knowledge of JavaScript to remove the link if you remove the link, your website will crash right away so purchasing the paid version is a must for a total freedom of the software and if you host your website on their server be ready to see a pop-up of their brand name with an embedded link. All these are the Cons i noticed about the software

### "A Great Website Building Tool"

August 28, 2022

5.0

I discovered Mobirise a few years ago and have renewed my subscription to it every year since. It is by far the simplest web site design tool I have ever used. It allows the creation of a simple website in a matter of a couple of hours and it's drag & drop user interface enables you to focus on more on your content without having to worry about the details of the code. I would recommend Mobirise to anyone who does not have a strong understanding of HTML/CSS and wishes to create a web presence quickly.

Pros

The drag & drop interface makes building pages a breeze. The customisable templates and components when combined allow an almost infinite number of pages to be constructed.

Cons

The code editing is not always as good as it could be, but this only impacts use if a user is wishing to edit the HTML/CSS directly. The stylesheet management could be better.

### "A free alternative to online website builders"

January 31, 2021

3.0

I was looking for an affordable (or free) entry-level website builder that I could recommend to friends and clients if they wanted to have a go at building their own site (without getting locked into a hosted solution like Wix, Weebly, Squarespace, etc.) I built a website with Mobirise to see what was possible. While it was certainly quick to throw something together, when I wanted to override the CSS, things became a little frustrating. So I would recommend Mobirise to novices, but not to other designers and developers.

Pros

Mobirise makes building a website super easy—you drag-and-drop pre-made components into your page, and voila. In that sense, it's a lot like any number of online website builders (Wix, Weebly, etc), but unlike those, you're free to host your site anywhere. The basic app is free, and really gives you all you need. It's about as WYSIWYG as you can get—editing text is like editing the live site in a web browser. The UI is very simple and minimalistic, but it works. It's also responsive, allowing you to display your page in desktop or mobile view with a single click.

Cons

If you're a designer, or anyone who likes to have full control over the look of your design, Mobirise probably isn't for you. Customisation of themes is very limited. You can turn elements off and on, change alignment of text, and other basic options like that. (In some ways this is both the app's greatest strength and weakness.) You need to be careful to look over every element before publishing your site—pre-made components contain alt tags and links to Mobirise, some of which are all too easy to overlook. Searching the exported code for ‘mobirise’ is worth the effort! The app includes a built-in FTP client, but in my testing it was pretty broken. (Your mileage may vary.) If you do decide to pay for additional themes and extensions (unnecessary IMO) make sure you understand the licensing. In a marketing email, and in the app itself, the description under the All-in-One Kit states, 'Get ALL current and future Mobirise themes and extensions …’, but an almost hidden FAQ says that you only get new add-ons for one year from purchase. On this page \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] (now deleted it seems) a customer was told that if they update the Mobirise app, they have to re-buy everything!

### "Mobirise is an offline Websitebuilder based on Bootstrap (4), easy to handle and very fast."

November 14, 2017

5.0

Fast and easy development of Layout sites to present different options to the client.

Pros

Based on Bootstrap you have a solid framework to start with. You can make Layouts for clients very easy and fast and you need for this only basic skills. After exporting sites from Mobirise you receive a solid clean code.For people who have a background in Html and CSS everything is customizable.

Cons

Regardless of all customization options, the design of all sites looks very similar. Purchasing Code Editor to customize CSS and Html solve the problem.

### "Just Brilliant"

April 2, 2019

5.0

I have been using Mobirise for over 3 years now and every now and again a bug appears but it is quickly resolved by the developers and also you have the mobirise forum where people help each other out. I highly recommend this software for anyone wishing to create a modern website with good SEO.

Pros

Easy to use and continuously being developed for users and free initially for the basic version. I love the way anyone who knows how to use a computer can easily update content.

Cons

Some of the themes are limited and quite pricey I feel. Although the package offers come with good discounts.

### "Good website builder for simple sites"

November 19, 2019

3.0

I downloaded it to give it a try and see if it would be a good tool to use for client sites. I use it to do a quick mockup of a client's site and it works well for that as well as simple websites.

Pros

It was easy to use, just drag & drop blocks & add content. I like that you can build your site on your computer and not need hosting or a domain to get started

Cons

Some of the blocks were limiting. if you went over the character count, it made a mess of the template. Others were not as flexible as I would have liked- couldn't get the blocks to fit into the layout as I wanted it to.

### "Amazing tool for code-free design!"

April 20, 2019

4.0

Excellent application for free! It helps you a lot when you need something really really fast.

Pros

It's a free application with a lot of tools, specially for web design. You can build an entire website with just a few drag & drops. It has multiple pre-built templates and the structure make them a one-of-a-kind platform. You can upgrade and buy plugins to improve your designs. You can save your own modules so it helps a lot to work faster. At the end you decide if you want to export as HTML or to publish and see a preview.

Cons

Sometimes it closes. You can't include your own icons. When you export from design to HMTL it includes some code between the lines.

### "Fantastic web design software for anyone"

March 27, 2019

5.0

This is my number one go to web design software because of how quickly amd easily you can create professional results with truly minimal effort. It makes the difficult impossibly simple!

Pros

In a phrase - ease of use. This is the easiest, best looking and powerful web design programs available. You literally drag and drop blocks and use drop down menus to configure said blocks. Fantastic effects and massive choice IF you spend the $$$

Cons

Useless unless you spend the money. Truthfully, spend the all in one price to get and unlock all the amazing features otherwise don't bother.

### "A great way to dive into AMP development"

April 6, 2018

4.0

I started to develop my own AMP sites (it is simply mandatory) and it works great. I am pretty sure that with a litlle of coding capabilities you would be able to do more, but for a former aint-got-time-to-code coder, it works perfectly fine.

Pros

It works like an IDE but allows you to focus on the upper level of program coding (UX and features), rather than handling raw code.

Cons

The things you need to pay are basically themes. You don't get to pay for an extra help with CSS formatting or automated deploying or just connecting your software to a data repository such as GitHub.

Short learning curve to start developing my own web sites.

Pros

How easy it was to start making web pages and all the different ready made templates to give you a head start in your design.

Cons

That some themes are not compatible with other teams to make mix and match easier. Is like having a puzzle with pieces that do not match.

### "Excellent for a designer and non-programmer"

August 25, 2021

5.0

I've used Mobirise for a lot of sites, and I'm very pleased with the result, and crucially, so are my clients.

Pros

Mobirise works on 'blocks' i.e. a block is a layout template for some pictures and associated text. There are a huge range of blocks each one suggesting a picture size and text size/font layout, with functions such as galleries, 'click to enlarge', video clip inserts, a simple PayPal shop system, Google maps, plus most of the functions you need. You can adjust the picture size and amount of text as required. You can save your modified blocks and move them around.

Cons

The only downside is that the blocks are not 100% adjustable but this is not too much of a problem bearing in mind the advantages and ease of use listed above. I've downloaded and tested many types of website design software and so far Mobirise is the best I've found for a non-programmer.

### "Super fast and easy create websites with Mobirise"

November 25, 2023

5.0

in general the experience is super positive and the tool is recommended for all those who need to create beautiful sites and landing pages in a precise, fast and accurate way. Saving data in real time and exporting the site quickly and without errors are certainly two features that make the difference, without forgetting that exporting allows you to have real html files that can be modified externally and at a later time

Pros

The main feature is the ease of use of the program: super friendly interface, easy and instant drag and drop mechanism, allows both novices and expert programmers to create beautiful sites with extreme ease and super fast

Cons

the only feature is that the construction of the sites is limited to the use of blocks only and does not allow large customizations on the animation side and positioning of the elements on the page

### "The best website builder"

July 28, 2022

4.0

I have made several web pages in the last year and a half such as acusval.es and in all of them, expanding them in bvase to the needs of the client has been very simple for me. Mobirise allows you to create medium cost web pages for the client with a very low cost of software. I fully recommend it.

Pros

templates is the strong point of mobirise, they allow you to create a web page in a very short time and also have many options for different sectors. The first time I used Mobirise, I was struck by how easy it is to implement a template and modify it as the client wants.

Cons

The way to compile a project in mobirise and how it integrates with the server is the reason for selecting this software over others. It is very easy to compile the whole project and upload it to the server, in seconds you have a new web page working.

Reason for choosing Mobirise Website Builder

Choosing Mobirise instead of other software is because of its easy handling that does not require great knowledge, the drag and drop system works perfectly and you can also play html code if you have knowledge.

### "Makes creating websites a breeze"

March 11, 2020

5.0

Hard to fault a website builder that produces fast and slick looking sites for free, and altrhough I still use Wordpress for more complex siites, Mobirise is my first port of call.

Pros

This is a drag-and-drop website builder that sits on your desktop, so you have to know how to upload the website to hosting. But the rest is easy - the templates look fantastic, and it's simple to create a great looking website in minutes.

Cons

The free version allows you to do most things but if you want to edit HTML or CSS you will need the paid plugin, which I strongly recommend. Mobirise is well-maintained but occasionally there are software releases that accidentially break things, so you have to check on the forum whether it's a reliable release. It isn't really designed for blogs - so if you're a regular blogger you might want to look elsewhere. Mobirise doesn't have the functionality of, say, Wordpress, but nevertheless it's pretty good and you be can up and running with a great looking site in minutes.

Building client website quickly and easily.

Pros

This is a great website builder for both experienced and non technical users. I love building compelling and beautiful websites quickly and easily. The websites generated are cutting edge and automatically responsive. The templates and extensions that come with the app are awesome and enable to go from idea/concept to fully working site to show end client. You can publish your website to either mobirise domain, local folder, ftp, or GitHub Pages.

Cons

Only one gotcha is that you will need an extra code editor they provide to tweak any pieces but its the only minor thing I can think of. You getting a streamlined approach of building a website.

Reason for choosing Mobirise Website Builder

Just overall fast and easy.

### "Underrated web creation tool"

July 20, 2018

5.0

For prototyping or creating small static websites and landing pages, the tool is perfect. No coding required, almost no design skills required, as the templates are already looking good.

Pros

Mobirise is one of the best drag & drop website creators - and I know what I'm saying, because I spent hours on Product Hunt creating a collection of all drag & drop website creator tools I could find there. And trust me, there are quite a lot. 90% of Mobirise features are free, which means you will be able to create the website you want for free (they don't even include a watermark!). Also, they run a lot of promo discounts so you'll be able to get everything cheaply, if you really need more features. It's really easy to use yet fairly customizable, so you will be able to create the website you want easily. The sites created on it look amazing. They have small but brilliant features, like integrated image searching. And they also include support for AMP websites - that's the icing on the cake. So, for creating small static websites and landing pages, it's my go-to software.

Cons

While I understand that they have to make money somehow, I'd like that the code editor plugin would be free - sometimes I just wanted to edit a little bit of CSS and it was a pain to edit outside the app.

### "I've just quit mobirise for a site builder, but if you can pay it, keep it!"

January 7, 2020

4.0

Very intuitive and ease to use, fast to update the projects and with a build in ftp software mades an excelent choice for any small project.

Pros

It was a love at first sight! As soon as I've noticed about Mobirise I've donwloaded and start to use it at once! It's very easy to use, it has a lot of functionalities that every webmaster needs as an ftp software embeded, many temaplates to choose and a very good resource in the code editor module. If you have enought it worth the bucks expended on it!

Cons

It's an expensive software and the most important is the way it puts code on the header of page, slowing till death the page loading what will made crazy any concerned webmaster in order to keep page fast as demanded by google, among others.
