It has been alright. For the price we pay it would be nice to be able to have other sites on the same account for additional fees. or at least a couple adding pages as our company grows.
Pros
I like that it works really well with other apps like Etsy and Squareup. It is pretty easy to set up with a template.
Cons
Editing items in my shop after uploading from Etsy is a bit cumbersome. (it is one and done). customer service for one of my web domains has been poor.

I have had a pleasant experience with Squarespace and using it to manage our website, appointment scheduling, and online payments/invoices.
Pros
The ease of use and plug-and-play nature of services. The templates for design are easy to use and help build beautiful sites that fit the needs for our business.
Cons
There were certain web building tools that I wish we could have had access to fully customize the website. I remember having many issues with button sizes and font sizes that made it difficult to customize.

I have had a lot of success building and updating websites with squarespace and managing payment through it but have looked into alternatives with better price points and flexibility.
Pros
User friendliness is next to none when it comes to managing a website for a small business.
Cons
The cost of squarespace is high for a a single or two person business operation.

Great desktop functionality, mobile view is lacking
Reviewed on 2024/11/22
Good, I still use it but I really hope someone from Squarespace see's my notes in the cons section.
Good, I still use it but I really hope someone from Squarespace see's my notes in the cons section.
Pros
Square Space to me is still the best tool out there to get a website out quickly, but it does have quick a few things lacking still (see below).
It has a good amount of templates that you can customize really easily, but they do all look a bit templately still.
Cons
1) The mobile view cannot be adjusted. Anything you edit from the mobile view will affect the desktop view. I think Squarespace should take a page from UnBounce who lets to optimize the mobile side separately from the desktop side.
2) There needs to be more ajax and jquery type animation functionality to help the website look less templately. Any type of animation is essentially no-existent outside of galleries fading in and the text underline.
3) I don't like how Squarespace is constantly spamming me to upgrade to the eCommerce plan when I'm not making a eCommerce website. They've even added an error icon next to one of the templates I'm using now. This is very annoying.

Squarespace was a great entry point to getting my website up and hosted properly.
Pros
Lots of domain opportunities, and the websites look very modern and cool.
Cons
For the price, I expected more functionality within the website builder. It did not have the features I was looking for, so I was forced to look for a 3rd party option.

A very positive experience when building websites for others to manage on their own as it is quick to make templates for a website that other users with less experience can easily make changes to as needed. Also, while simple, the final design of a website looks visually appealing and more complex but take significantly less time that if using a website builder like Wordpress.
Pros
I would say that it is the simplest yet easiest website builder out there for making a visually appealing and interactive website.
Cons
If you plan to expand your website or business model, there are some limitation with Squarespace compared to Wordpress.

Pros
Easy to set up and feels professional. Didn't feel like I had to know code or be too tech savvy to make it look nice.
Cons
Sometimes the customization templates on the website needed some workarounds, but it wasn't easy to move things exactly as I wanted.

Overall my experience with Squarespace has been very positive and I will continue to use the platform for both myself and my clients.
Pros
I like how easy it is to use and customize, there just isn't as big of a learning curve with it as with other website-building platforms.
Cons
What I like least is that the pricing can get really out of hand since you have to keep adding to your subscription.

I love Squarespace, and have used the site for my website, scheduling, domains, email marketing, e-commerce, Google Workplace subscription and booking/scheduling for years. It is SO easy to build a good website with Squarespace. I didn't need to pay someone to do this for me, and have been able to easily create a website I love. But, for me, it's the additional offerings that Squarespace offers that adds the most value. Their booking/scheduling system is great, and I use this to have clients book their meetings. It works seamlessly with my website. The email marketing is also brilliant, and easily sucks website content through to create email campaigns. And it's also great to be able to manage my Google subscription through Squarespace, too.
Pros
It makes websites, domains, email marketing, e-commerce, booking & scheduling... SO EASY!
Cons
Price is on the higher side compared with other options.

Pros
It makes building and maintaining a good looking website really easy. I love that they take care of the security and updates so I can focus on doing more important stuff in my business. They keep expanding their features and there are lots of customisation options with css
Cons

I like Squarespace and use it for managing my blog and email automations and website but there are times I can't figure out how to make certain changes or it doesn't have the functionality of other tools like MailChimp.
Pros
I like that I can build and make changes myself with many tools for website and email development
Cons
Because it is a build your own tool, it can be challenging to figure out how to do all the things you want to do and it doesn't have all the functionality of MailChimp

Overall, Squarespace is a great way to start a business and integrate a simple web site at an affordable price. Depending on business growth and complexities related to products, coupons, etc. this can become a challenge for an advanced user/business.
Pros
Squarespace is an easy setup and provides simple ways to begin collecting payments from customers. The building of a basic web site is quick for a beginner with simple tools in the UI for making update a breeze.
Cons
Once a business grows and wants to build more complex functionality with their web site, Squarespace begins to become much more challenging. The limitations provided by having a simple UI for basic users then hinders advanced users to grow their site and continue using the platform.

I really liked how easy it was to use and how many products you could integrate into the website.
Cons
I didn't like how it was a little more complicated it was to set up. To be fair I didn't watch the video's but it did take me a minute to learn how to set everything up. But, way easier to set up than coding it myself.

Very satisfied, even though I can get my website free with my booking software I prefer the formatting options I get with squarespace and love how fast the change between pages loads. And it integrates perfectly with my hire booking software, so no plans to look elsewhere.
Pros
Squarespace offers a widely versatile range of pre formatted templates as well as easy to use formatting. Its therefore suited to website designers skillset level (beginner/intermediate/advanced). I was able to design my website from blank canvas quite easily using their recommended design combinations as reference.
Cons
I do wish I could upload my font files to enable unique fonts and more variety.

Squarespace has been such an easy tool to use which caught me by surprise. I was intimated to start my own site but they made it so easy and the process was so fun to create and customize!
Pros
I have no knowledge of how to start or maintain a website and Squarespace allows such a simple website builder than anyone can use it. They offer a library of resources for help if needed but if not it is easy to jump right in and create a website based on your industry. I found the process to be fun and easy to do.
Cons
They have help resources for just about every topic, sometimes you have to dig a little to find what you are looking for but can usually find it.

- I wish there was more of a free-form dragging feature. The grid formatting can be feel limiting in placing things on a webpage. However, I admit I am very ignorant about the nuances about how web design must work on a practical level, so I don't know if grid-based placement is necessary for website design or something.
