The templated sections make building very fast and the sites are always clean with hardly any technical issues. > > **Cons**: The level of CSS you need to know for customization can be an issue for some people, however, there are good online resources to teach you. The pricing is also sometimes an issue for clients who are lured by sales on WordPress sites. > > We've built sites in Squarespace for over 8 years. We've seen a lot of improvements in each iteration of the builder and have consistently been able to quickly create professional, clean websites. For some of our clients, the drag and drop builder is ideal for them to make their own updates (honestly, why are you paying someone else to change a photo?) There are limitations to what you can customize/change without CSS, which is also a good thing when it comes to clients accessing their sites, too. :) On the few times we've needed to connect to customer support, the team has been responsive and resolved matters quickly. ----- ### "Iconic Tool for Personal and Corporate Branding" — 5.0/5 > **Dharmpreet** | *13 January 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I use Squarespace on a daily basis at workplace to streamline website design and creative \& portfolio showcases. > > **Cons**: Squarespace has never failed to accomplish all my needs ranging from our financial services branding to conducting webinars and conferences. > > The event landing pages allocated by Squarespace allows me to collect registrations and share updates in one place. ----- ### "Don’t do it\!\!" — 1.0/5 > **Stephanie** | *22 August 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Absolutely nothing \! Was hard to navigate and definitely not user friendly\! Customer support was also frustrating. > > **Cons**: All the ala cart Orion’s and need for other softwares to make my business run with ease and simplicity. > > Absolutely aweful\! Used it for 2 months even though it was paid for for a year, I switched right away\! ----- ### "Professional, Easy, Entry-Level" — 4.0/5 > **Madeline** | *06 May 2026* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Squarespace made it so easy to make a really professional looking website with no experience. That was invaluable to me. It's so easy to adjust layouts in a pretty wide variety of ways. > > **Cons**: It's difficult to customize colors to work for every page. 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. Additonally, it can be really hard when you're trying to change something on the palette to figure out which options you're actually needing to change. > > Overall this is a great service and I'd highly recommend it. The pros far outweigh the cons and it is the best service out there for beginners or people needing a really professional but easy website. ----- ### "Great All-in-One Platform for Event Management" — 4.0/5 > **Victoria** | *20 October 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked how easy it was to build a clean, professional website without needing technical skills. The event sales page features worked smoothly, and I loved being able to list upcoming art and craft sessions, sell tickets, and keep everything organized in one place. The templates were simple to customize for my business style. > > **Cons**: I wish there were more flexible options for event ticket reporting and email confirmations. Customer support was very helpful, but the live chat wait times could be shorter. > > Overall, Squarespace made it easy to manage my small business and host creative events for kids. It allowed me to display past and upcoming workshops, accept payments, and keep in touch with customers. It’s reliable, visually appealing, and ideal for business owners who want to handle everything themselves. ----- Page: 1 / 138\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/91132/squarespace?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/91132/squarespace) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
