Wix Reviews

My experience has been great so far! I have started my journey into web design with WIX and I love the educational options that WIX STUDIO Provides.

Overall very good, helpdesk always able to answer within 10 minutes

Good, I did go to a different provider as I couldn't get the templates to accurately reflect my vision. I am not tech savvy nor coder so this may be easier for someone else. Integrations were good and wish my new service had these.

The large variety of templates means you can immediately get to work and look at a ton of ways to have your site look within minutes. Searchg functions even mean you can directly filter for your intended site type. The tools once you choose the basis to begin with are simple to grasp.

Overall experience was very good and much satisfied

I have built several websites for clients and myself over the years and I love the products, versatility and customer service.

I use Wix templates to create websites easily and quickly.

We feel our website looks professional despite the fact we are beginners at web design. We've posted photos, videos, and created a few unique pages that reflect our unique business.

Overall it has been excellent to use Wix!

Excellent communication. I would give Wix a 10 out of 10 for customer service.

Wix is a decent program for people who are new to building websites. They have attractive components and it is incredibly easy to use this platform. Customization was lacking, which was the reason we ended up abandoning this in favor of another platform.

I am a small business owner with a 15 year IT background. I no longer wanted to perform IT duties and wanted a website platform for my business that wouldn’t consume significant time to maintain and manage content. It ended up taking me almost 6 months of web development to launch my site due to Wix’s unavailable mass import for products (they have the feature now and it’s great). I had to do a lot of custom coding on the backend to make my website function for my particular product set because of limited tools and resources at the time. While Wix has been a fairly stable platform that requires little upkeep, the developers do often make changes that affect the websites function without any prior warning or documentation on resolution. For a while, I had to check my website functionality daily, just to make sure they hadn’t made changes that prevented website users from searching for and purchasing my custom goods. The past couple of years (2023-2024) have been somewhat better in terms of changes that significantly impact the website’s function. Overall, I am happy with the platform, but if I hadn’t been an IT professional, Wix (or any other platform) would not have worked for my particular product set. If you have products with few product options, Wix would be great. My unique products often have 100’s of different configurations for a single product with well over 3 million product SKU’s. These simple, easy to use, website hosting platforms are not designed to support this type of product set, but I refused to go back into IT just for my website and knew that in the long run, it was best to have a hosted solution, like Wix.

It's usually good, except when the updates create more work. I did not like that and it has happened a few times now. I don't like the increase in fees and neither do my clients.

Wix is a web designer that some say is not difficult to utilize and has an incredible by and large experience. It has an intuitive proofreader, a huge choice of layouts, and an easy to understand interface that can assist novices with following Website optimization best practices. Wix likewise offers a free arrangement for testing out the stage.

I enjoy using it with my work, and I also chose to use it for my own personal website, but there are tiny details like the terrible SEO that really ruins it for me. I've encountered more issues on platforms like Wordpress or Squarespace, so it's really a lesser of two evils case.

I have been using Wix for almost 10 years, for several websites, always my experience has been good, the process to create and mantain the website is very smooth.

Overall it's been great and the only platform I've used for my website.

My experience with Wix has improved because they have invested time in working improve their product and customer service.

Pros:
1- Very easy to use and time saver for any level of web development,
2- Safe and fast servers,
3- High quality library.

Cons:
1- Expensive,
2- High renewal prices,
3- Extra costs,
4- Slow customer support.

Overall, if you have a budget to use for it, it's definitely worth it. But there is no any cheap alternatives for the presented technology.

I like Wix for the ease and to simply have a website as a brand front (a page for people to land on) or to maintain a blog. However, this was not going to be a lasting choice for me because ai wanted more out of my website. I needed more customization than I could get from Wix (free version).

Overall, my experience with Wix has been positive. The platform is easy to use, with intuitive design tools and a variety of templates that allow for great customization. While there are some limitations regarding site speed and costs for premium features, the customer service has truly stood out. [sensitive content hidden], in particular, provided extraordinary assistance, going above and beyond to ensure my questions were answered and my needs were met. Her support made a significant difference in my experience, adding great value to the overall platform.

Our overall experience has been a positive one with WIX. We are very pleased in how it has assisted us with our design firm.

WIX is okay at best. Their base subscription gives you access to a lot more themes when compared to it's competitors.

The default themes are nice, but WIX targets people who are typically inexperienced in web development. Sometimes giving the user the ability to move an individual item and place it literally anywhere on the page isn't the best idea when the user doesn't understand how it might hurt performance or SEO.

The WIX editor is clunky, slow, and inefficient when compared to others. Their hosting service has got to be one of the slowest for the money. Adding functions like WIX payments and bookings are made very easy, but removing them completely and properly is rarely mentioned anywhere it'd be useful.

The worst part about WIX is that you can have the experience to create something but may be limited by the outdated WIX editor. If you talk to their support they're happy to tell you to try their new WIX Studio editor (which is significantly better) but they don't mention that sites made on WIX Studio have a separate dashboard, cost more, and websites built on the regular editor cannot be migrated.

Lets say your client insists on using WIX, they're not tech savvy and aren't willing to pay extra every month for a WIX studio built site.

Now you have one store to manage through the WIX dashboard. God forbid they ever change their mind because WIX says migrating is NOT possible so it will have to be rebuilt from scratch.

If you are managing stores on both WIX and WIX Studio you need to have two very inefficient dashboards open taking up precious resources.

WIX is an acceptable product to learn the ins and outs, but falls behind when you have to use something so half baked on a recurring basis. I would strongly recommend against WIX if you can afford a higher subscription price.

I'm delighted to use Wix because it allows me to create extremely impressive website without any hassles.It is simple to customize Wix according to my needs.

The chairman at a non-profit that I volunteer at, was complaining about the cost that website designers wanted in order to replace their very old-fashioned website. Although I have many years of software experience, I had never built a website before. I looked around and there were many recommendations for Wix, so I decided to have a try.
I found the software very easy to use, with lots of built-in tools, all of them very configurable. Within 2–3 days I had a professional, working, website. Because of financial limitations, I only used their free tools, but those were enough for what they needed.
The site shows off who they are, what they do, their past and current projects, their future activities, their current and archived newsletters. It has a sign-up for email updates, a contacts page and even a donations page that accepts credit cards.
I will probably add a blog, so that our volunteers can talk about their experiences.
The chairman was overwhelmed, especially when he saw that the hosting would cost less than they were currently paying.
And, given how easy the tools are, I even volunteered to maintain in the future.
