Managing Director Consumer Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Weebly - mostly ups, relatively few downs." August 30, 2024 4.0 Positive overall, from the perspective of a relatively confident graphic designer able to create and manipulate graphics to add hero images / vectors to pages. Without a really good licensed image library, you might find it a struggle to create a unique and attractive website, but that's part of the challenge and where the satisfaction comes from; creating a beautiful website shouldn't be a piece of cake - you should expect to have to work (a little) at it! Pros Very intuitive and simple to achieve a reasonable level of professionalism with limited graphic design skill. Handy features for e-commerce, shipping settings allow tax and weight customisation based on territory. For simple content-based website, pretty quick and satisfying to use. Cons For more detailed product / brand shops, can be a little clunky to upload and customise new products, and has limited functionality in terms of sub-menus for product categories, with some layouts being very limited without being able to create custom code. Shipping costs can be confused, with items inheriting the wrong cost leading to an expensive overseas order (\*this happened once).

Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Weebly is Great Setting Up Your Own Professional Looking Website" September 3, 2024 5.0 I used Weebly to set up a small business website as an alternative/ supplement to my online handmade shop using another popular platform which had a lot of fees associated with it. Pros I like that Weebly is a step by step process that is easy to use and understand to set up my small business website. There are many themes to choose from. Cons There is a little difficulty switching back and forth to the mobile application. Review Source CL Cynthia L. Director Airlines/Aviation Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy Website Platform" August 28, 2024 4.0 Overall experience with Weebly has been good. I've been using Weebly for several website over a number of years and it has satisfied my needs. Pros Weebly is a effective platform for building and managing a website without web development knowledge or experience. The system is simple to use and the learning curve is not onerous. Cons While Weebly offers numerous plug-ins to enhance website, the features of the plug-ins tend to be limited particularly for editing. Alternatives considered [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Reason for choosing Weebly Weebly held the advantage on both price and ease of use. Review Source EO Eniola O.

Cons I wish there were more customisable templates Review Source TW Timmy W. Owner Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Stream lines my business uploads" November 23, 2024 5.0 Love it. I am so happy that they have an app that I was able to install from the Apple Store. Pros Being able to run my website from my iPad is HUGE! Such an easy program to use with Square. They knocked this out of the park. Cons I have not ran into anything that I do not like yet. I have been using the app for about a month at the time of this review. Review Source CA Crystal A. Founder Writing and Editing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Create your website or blog with ease using Weebly" October 4, 2024 5.0 I created a website with ease using Weebly. However, I decided to change the WordPress, not too long after building my website and blog. Pros I really liked the tools provided by Weebly to build your own website or blog. It was super easy to build on with the tools that are provided. Cons There was nothing I didn’t like about the platform. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ten year Weebly User " July 12, 2024 5.0 Except for the last year with Square getting involved Outstanding Pros Ease of creation and then selecting administrators to manage specific sections Cons Square bought them and has really made it much harder to access my sites. Square needs to understand they process payments. Weebly creates websites. The only time they need each other is if there are products to sell or donations to collect Dear Squsre.

Director Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to use website builder" August 7, 2024 4.0 Really good! Have used for years and generally very easy to use and maintain website Pros Ease of use. For the most part it really is a 'drag and drop' process Cons Not sure. At times, seem to have difficulty adjusting text boxes and other items to same level as others Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Reason for choosing Weebly Unsure - was many years ago. I think just the ease of use for Weebly Review Source AE Aaron E. Founder Venture Capital & Private Equity Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good, basic, and inexpensive content management system." September 10, 2024 4.0 We used it for years, mainly due to the time cost of switching, but found other platforms we used more smooth, elegant, and better looking design. Pros Low cost, easy to use, and some useful integrations. Cons Clunky user interface, not smooth as compared to other CMS solutions. Review Source RK Rupinder K. Owner operator Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Overall good for beginners " August 8, 2024 4.0 It is not as much good as other website builders. Other websites builders provide you full control and variety of customization options but weebly doesn’t. If you are a beginner, you can opt for weebly for learning. Pros it's a very good platform for users to build websites easily providing free to paid plans. Best for the beginners who don’t know coding or find coding difficult. Cons It has limited phone support and very few customization options for website building. Ads are another drawback that comes with free plan unless you upgrade to a paid plan. Review Source EH Eric H. Web Developer Sports Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good quick free website for beginners " August 16, 2024 5.0 Good when figured out Great for beginners. Pros Easy to follow and navigate with smooth platform. Cons Long website name created. Figuring out how each page works. Review Source Scott T. Founder Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "One of the best user-friendly sitebuilders on the web" May 10, 2023 5.0 Weebly is by far the best website editor I've used since I started having interest in owning a website. The editor is very user friendly and its quite easy to set up multiple webpages; although the hyperlink has a .weebly.com tag in it, Weebly can be a great start if you're looking to build a website and don't know too much HTML and coding; highly recommend!There are a couple things that may need changing though. There's a lot of white space in the side margins of the website, and this may differ depending on the monitors used; despite how much content you may have on that webpage, everything on the website is centered to the middle of the page (it would be nice to edit the side margins to remove that white space.Another thing with enabling a custom domain, and enabling SSL security for it, is that the tutorial I feel is slightly outdated; ended up contacting GoDaddy support to find out how to set it up as the tutorial for it on Weebly didn't help much.It would also be nice to edit the mobile version of the website as the difference between the desktop version and mobile is crazy; its very squished and images for some reason appear enlarged compared to the desktop version. It doesn't look very appealing on mobile.My final note is that its quite expensive to enable all features of the website. It's not too bad to remove Weebly's ads and enable a custom domain with GoDaddy (or another similar provider), but again, make sure you're able to afford the upgrade Pros \> Easy to use> Updates new changes quickly on the website> Multiple available apps to integrate, and easy to apply or remove from the editor> Customer support is reliable> No limitations to how much content you can have on the website> Settings easy to configure> Multiple options to set up custom domains> Multiple theme options to choose from (although more options/layouts could be better)> Ability to change defaults for fonts, font colour, style and size in theme options> Easy to "clean up" the website to look appealing Cons \> Expensive to unlock all features for the site (including ecommerce, removing Weebly's ads, custom domain, etc.)> A lot of white space on the side margins of the editor, especially if the website is slightly zoomed out.> Setting up a custom domain using GoDaddy or another provider is a slightly tedious process to finish - with another owned website and domain, it took around 3-4 days to enable SSL security.> You're not able to edit the mobile version of the website Review Source KS Kristi S. Media/Technology Coordinator Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Weebly is user friendly and cost effective if you need a web page set up quickly!" January 27, 2022 5.0 I have not had to contact Weebly support at all, so that is a positive in my book! Many times when I start out with a new software program or web program, there is a lot of communication between myself and the company support team in order to get things how I need them. This was so user-friendly that my son set up a free personal page for a class in just a single day. As a tech coordinator, this was very easy for me to set up, and our admin assistant was able to learn to add & edit content very quickly. Pros I like that there are many themes to choose from to customize your site on Weebly, and the interface is user friendly. You can switch back and forth from a screen that looks like a word processor (for selecting bold, italics, font size, color, etc.) OR you can switch to the coding language of HTML if you want further customizations. I have gotten along great without needing to switch to HTML, but it is nice to know I have the option. There is a nice variety of templates to choose from, and you can control who can view your page. For our organization, we only wanted our staff to have access to personnel forms, so we set this up with a password. Very easy to select that option if you need a private site. Cons At first it was confusing that I had to make two payments every few years. Then I realized that one payment is for Weebly to secure your preferred domain name (if it is available) and they register it for you. I have that part set up to renew every five years. The second payment is an annual subscription fee for using the Weebly software interface and all the features that comes along with that including a nice selection of themes. Reason for choosing Weebly Nice templates and user-friendly, low cost, very little training required, if any. Review Source AP Autumn P. Writer Graphic Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Weekly is my absolute favorite!" June 30, 2022 5.0 This is my absolute favorite blog site! Other sites like blogger are super difficult to use, but with weekly you don’t have to know much about editing as they provide the tools for you! Plus side is that you don’t really have to be premium, I use the free version and my storytelling needs were met. Pros Beginner friendly Lots of free templates No purchase necessary you get most features free! Easy to edit and customize Cons Getting in contact with customer support is tricky Recovering lost account was nearly impossible Reason for choosing Weebly Did not look at others bought weekly Immediately. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Wordpress was too difficult to use, they also lacked templates and some features were restricted to premium. Review Source Gilmer S. Marketing Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent for the price" September 20, 2023 5.0 I was able to take my web project from idea to publication in just a few days thanks to the powerful tools included in the free plan. I was then able to easily scale by upgrading my site with more pages, advanced eCommerce features, and a custom domain by upgrading to a paid plan. The support and documentation were also excellent in resolving any issues or concerns. I would definitely recommend Weebly to any person or organization looking for a low-cost and efficient website building solution Pros What I liked most about Weebly was its powerful drag-and-drop visual builder. It allowed me to easily create a complex site structure with multiple pages and sections using just my mouse. Its clean and well-organized interface made the design process highly intuitive. Additionally, the numerous Responsive themes and templates helped me quickly bring my ideas to life and ensure my site looks and works well from any device Cons What I liked least was the limited code customization. Although the visual editor covers most needs, experienced web developers miss the ability to inject custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code to create completely unique designs. However, I understand that this goes against Weebly's no-code approach to allowing anyone to create a professional website Review Source JR John R. CEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for beginners, business owners, or hobbyists" August 1, 2022 5.0 Pros The software is very easy to use. I literally built Weebly websites when I was about 10 years old, before I knew a lick of HTML. I've since used it to build several unused sites and a couple of active ones. I have one up now that's for a liquor store my parents own, and since they didn't need anything fancy they were able to save hundreds if not thousands on making their website by simply having me do it easily on Weebly. Cons I would recommend sticking with Weebly as your webhosting service if you're going to build the site here because they really don't make it easy to integrate with a separate web hosting service. I also question the dynamic capabilities of Weebly's site builder without usage of manual JS code. I haven't looked much into the paid plug-ins, though, so if that's what people are using then it may be possible. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)[Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/)[Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing Weebly Wix, like I said didn't fit my quality standards the first time I tried it. For several uses I paid for weebly on, an online store or e-commerce site was not required, so shopify didn't make a lot of sense for them. We have also used Squarespace and felt it was of similar quality, albeit somewhat more complicated to use. We have also used Shopify if and when an online store was what we sought. For simply built static pages, I feel Weebly is the best option followed by Squarespace. Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Wix is basically Prezi... Weebly is a real website builder. Review Source Lawrent M. owner Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A good affordable and quick to set up web-builder" April 9, 2022 3.0 Weebly got us started in no time, and our web presence was almost immediate. Their service was very affordable and, as a small school, it was more than welcome. We received compliments from the community for the quality of our school website. Pros Weebly allows you to quickly be present on the web thanks to its -although limited- templates, and ease of use. You can customize your website to your liking and navigate through the SEO quite easily. I liked the fact that you can add contributors with limited control. We had to resort to contacting the support team, and they always answered in a timely and efficient manner. Cons There are fewer templates than in WIX, which is essential as I didn't want to spend too much time customizing the website. Starting with something closer to what we wanted was a priority. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Reason for choosing Weebly Weebly was cheaper. However, I chose WIX for my new business. Review Source Jared K. CMO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Webmasters beware" June 2, 2022 4.0 I've built multiple websites for clients as well as my own and I've never been disappointed that the quality reaches the maximum for each goal the client wants to achieve. Pros The website offers dummy proof controls to build a website that helps a client launch and stay in budget for where they want to go with their business. Cons There's a lot of limitations in branding, and scalability with product integrations.

Pros Weebly is the perfect tool for creating stunning visuals quickly and easily. I've been using it to create images for my blog posts and website and it's incredibly intuitive - anyone can pick it up in no time. see my website www.seetavacation.com Cons Some basic tools are free but the good stuff cost money, you have to pay extra Review Source Jimmy H. Pit Master Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It is easy and cheap and you can get a website up quickly" December 24, 2021 4.0 Overall I have been a loyal customer with now 3 websites for probably 10 years. I like them better than Go Daddy, well at least from 10 years ago. I think the Square addition should be a little less imposing, I know it is their company and I use them as my credit card processing and POS and the integration is cool but Weebly I think should be about the website first. It a quick way to get a website with a domain up and minimal knowledge cheap though so overall I do like the product. Pros I like how you do not have to know HTML and a whole bunch of other modern languages. It is quick and easy to launch a website and a trusted company that is not a scam which the internet is filled with. I like the shell overall and have 3 different websites with them. Cons When Square took over it made it much harder to navigate through the shell to build on the websites and it is not customizable enough for individual companies. Also I don't like how they try and force you into multiple expensive subscriptions such as (custom)@(your name.yourdomain) they want to try and make you think you have to pay google all this money and you do not. There are many things there where I feel like they should be honest and give you choices.

Administrative Assistant Libraries Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Weebly for Web-building Newbies and for Experienced Coders" July 12, 2021 5.0 Overall, this is very good for what we need. As previously stated, there are a couple of glitchy features that don't work properly, but there is plenty of good to overrule those problematic areas. Pros As an experienced web developer, I was concerned that Weebly would be too generic for our needs and wouldn't allow us to build more detailed web pages in the cases where we would need them. But they proved me wrong. Weebly makes building and maintaining your site easy to do when it comes to the ho-hum aspects of web development, and then it lets you ramp things up when you need to with it's Embed Code feature. Overall, we are extremely pleased with Weebly. There are a few things that are glitchy or don't work reliably, but those items are minor compared to the overall skillset this software has. Cons The ability to create links to other web sites is glitchy. It doesn't work reliably and may take 2-3 tries before I can get it to work properly. The other feature that doesn't work is their Search component. It's supposed to allow users of our site to be able to search our entire side for keywords, but currently, this feature does not work. I've contacted customer support about it and they did not really give me a satisfactory response. They have no idea when or if that Search element will be fixed. Review Source MHM Mashudu Hilary M. Freelancer Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A very helpful, easy and affordable website builder." June 29, 2022 4.0 Weebly was one of the software that I started using in building websites for my business. It is just what people with limited technical skills need when it comes to manifesting their business online. I found it very easy to use and versatile. However over the years it has become outdated and in order to keep up with prevailing trends, I had to migrate to other software such as Wix . Pros The first and most attractive feature that I found on Weebly is how it provides a generous free plan. I found it to provide a satisfactory array of features. The user interface is highly reliable and offers an option to drag and drop new elements on a page which you can click to edit settings. Weebly offers a wide selection and flexibility of design templates together with stylish themes with different page layouts for different uses. I love how it offers unlimited levels of navigation hierarchy and on top of this, the software supports large site structures. Weebly is also convenient in that image galleries, video and music players and other gadgets are all included in the editor. In addition to this, there are a number of useful applications such as tables, calendars and social media widgets and it allows the use of external widgets and tools which is highly advantageous. Lastly, Weebly offers excellent support be it chat or email. The softwares knowledge base answers a lot of questions through comprehensible tutorials and step by step guides. Cons Over the years, there haven't been many if not any updates, no new templates have been added in a while to the software thus making it outdated. The software offers limited customization and I have found the classic editor to be quite laggy. In spite of the software coming in a number of languages, non English characters are not supported. Lastly, I really believe that an undo button would be very useful as there is no way to recover deleted content such as text and images. Review Source Rich D. Owner Graphic Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "There are better options out there." October 15, 2019 3.0 Support takes a VERY long time to reply to tickets and/or messages. Sometimes up to a week. Replies are usually canned messages or written as if the CSR doesn't really care about helping you or not. Customization to our site theme from one of their on-site-listed 3rd party customizers made our checkout page un-usable after Weebly did some updates. I had to contact Weebly support twice (over more than a week's time) before they told me they couldn't help us due to our custom theme (which I don't think carries over into the check out pages). The customizer ended up fixing it for us. The only reason we haven't gone to another e-commerce hosting company is we don't have the time to invest in setting up all of our products again in another platform. When we do have time, we'll be moving on to a better platform. Pros No much. It seemed to be what we needed after ditching a prior hosting company/shopping cart. The price was in-line or maybe a bit lower than some competitors. Cons After importing our item list we began to see how cumbersome using the back-end is. There's a huge learning curve. To this day, years after signing up, it's still difficult to navigate around. Lots of standard features are lacking, and they don't seem to be in a hurry to implement anything that their client base requests. Reason for choosing Weebly The cost and what seemed to be prompt customer support.
