Overall Satisfaction with Squarespace

Squarespace provides a quick, no coding needed platform to display new information on our website. I personally use it for side-projects and portfolio pieces, exclusively used by me on the design team. It offers efficiency and focus on content, so everything can be pushed out live in a short amount of time.
  • Squarespace doesn't need any coding. The features are all drag and drop inside.
  • Squarespace has beautiful professional layouts that can be easily changed to different sizes.
  • Squarespace is easy to use with simple hover features and droplets to get everything designed.
  • Squarespace could improve on the picture handing and loading - it's clunky and slow at times.
  • Squarespace could provide a beginning demo tour. The droplet feature to add content wasn't clear at first.
  • The method of spacing sometimes causes glitches where content doesn't display properly.
  • Better customer service by being able to have a responsive website quickly able to run.
  • Increased employee efficiency letting designers focus on producing content rather than having to code and learn how to code.
Squarespace is great to quickly get content online in a professional manner. It's well suited for case studies and portfolio pieces. Squarespace is less appropriate for larger marketing or enterprise platforms. Its features doesn't allow for changes in interaction or story flow, making specific user objectives like press number to call difficult.
