User Testimonials
	9Lenses	Ghost
Likelihood to Recommend	9Lenses No answers on this topic	Ghost Foundation It is well suited for distributed writing and publishing with a subscription component.and well suited for simultaneous deployment to email and the web. Its pricing for a very small group (3 or more) tends to the expensive and login across multiple different devices can be aggravating. Incentivized MB Mike Blumenthal Co-founder Read full review

Cons	9Lenses No answers on this topic	Ghost Foundation They wysiwig editor is missing critical functions like superscript and subscript The markdown complement has those features but it doesn’t integrate well with the wysiwig editor Footnoting is hard to do Incentivized MB Mike Blumenthal Co-founder Read full review

Alternatives Considered	9Lenses No answers on this topic	Ghost Foundation It is simpler, headless, faster than WordPress. The core functionality is focused on subscription membership which is a bloated add on for WordPress. The simplicity has a cost as WordPress, while complicated, offers more expansion opportunities.
