Overall Satisfaction with Squarespace
We use Squarespace to build the microsite for one of our signature events. It is paired with another tool for actual ticket purchases, but Squarespace drives most of the front-facing website. It was set up by an external vendor, and maintenance is jointly handled by the vendor and our internal team.
- Minimal development experience needed to maintain.
- Solid templates that look professional with minimal work.
- Easy to manage multiple sites.
- WYSIWYG can be difficult to work with - feels like designing in Microsoft Word sometimes.
- Templates can be limiting and are generally less flexible than competitors like WordPress.
- Plugins and advanced features are mostly not an option.
- Event microsite is maintainable by event staff.
- Product out to market with minimal time and cost.
- Responsive design by default and great user experience.
Squarespace is by far the easiest option to use by non-technical staff, so we rely on it when we need to get something to market quickly, with minimal design and development time, in a way that is maintainable by Events and Marketing staff without support from web development staff.
