Pros

“The plugin library has also saved us a lot of time and money on custom development since we added some functionality such as contact forms for applicants.”
TK

Tim K.

Founder

“WordPress offers a lot of flexibility and customization, making it capable of building a site that fits your specific needs.”
MO

Michael O.

Communications Manager

“It allows me to choose from thousands of plugins to accomplish anything you could ever want a website to do and all for free. If I ever have any issues I can usually find a solution online from someone else who already fixed it or found a work around.”

Owner

Pros

“We need a product that folks without an IT background can navigate and use.”
BF

Benjamin F.

Senior Programmer/Analyst

“The platform cost was reasonable considering all the features.”
VF

Valerie F.

Sr. Channel Manager, Marketing

“It's easy for designers to use, no need to be a coding god to navigate.”
AU

Aisana U.

Designer

Cons

“There are a few things that can annoy us when it comes to updates and mobile compatibility but with plugins and pre-designed templates we're able to save time and concentrate on what we actually do.”
TK

Tim K.

Founder

“When we are changing the fonts and their sizes, sometimes and for some reason, the text doesn't pick up the font size and it doesn't appear visible, which force us to do it manually and try to guess the same size that was used before.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Cynthia N.

Owner

“The templates expire without warning causing your site to look bad and some pages wont even load. once you get a new template installed all the font images and alignment are no longer correct.”
