Pros

“You can only choose from a certain number of palettes and while you can customize your palette colors, you can then change something on an individual page within a palette.”

Madeline T.

Owner

“The native integration with Acuity Scheduling makes booking client appointments completely hands-off, and collecting payments through Stripe and PayPal is flawless.”

Angela W.

Graphic Designer

“I can sell my products and services online and provides with all the tools to run my ecommerce, also I like that I can customize everything with my logo and colors to make it feel more personal.”

Amos R.

Owner

Pros

“I think they have improved it a lot and I think it is now the best visual style editor for making HTML5 banner ads.”

Christopher T.

Senior Creative

“I made the switch over from Adobe animate and I think it has been a great choice. When Google Web Designer first came out years ago, it had a lot of problems and bugs, plus the interface was really poor.”

Christopher T.

Senior Creative

“This web application will allow you to design, compile advertisements, images, videos and web content through code and visual interface.”

Mahmoud A.

PROJECT MANAGER

Cons

“It's also impossible to make individual changes to fonts/colors/button design without completely modifying site-wide universal settings. If having more design and even functionality control is a high priority, this is not the site-builder for you.”

Stephanie P.

Virtual Assistant

“One downside of Squarespace is that it can feel a bit restrictive when you want more advanced customization—compared to other platforms, you don’t have as much flexibility unless you know some code.”

Nikole C.

permit tech

“The only negative thing about Squarespace is that it doesn't support multi currencies, and sometimes my clients from outside the state have to use third parties to be able to acquire my services or buy my products.”

Amos R.

Owner

Cons

“Never used the software to create websites, and can see this being very difficult and having issues with responsive nature.”
