Overall Satisfaction with Squarespace

We have used Squarespace for our own websites for a number of years. We have recommended it to clients. We have helped clients create, edit, and manage Squarespace pages. I believe it is way easier than WordPress. Squarespace auto updates but WordPress does not. Squarespace is really easy to use, so we usually recommend it to our clients.
  • They have auto updates so you don't have to worry about security issues
  • The editor and templates are super easy to use
  • Setup is quick and easy
  • I used Squarespace for all of my businesses for several years and was able to generate leads and business deals with an extremely inexpensive website.
  • People liked my websites so much that they asked me to build theirs on Squarespace and that brought in more business for me as well.
  • It was really easy to manage multiple websites when I had about five websites for my different business endeavors.
I would choose Squarespace over all the competition unless I wanted a website builder/host that had an online course portal. Squarespace has the easiest website builder. It's relatively cheap. It automatically updates. It is easy to integrate with third-party services such as Google email. I would recommend it over WordPress or Wix because I personally like the interface and templates better.

Did Squarespace live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Squarespace go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Squarespace again?

Yes

I think if you just need a basic website with info, Squarespace is the best choice. I've used WordPress before and you have to constantly update it and the plugins all the time because of security issues. Squarespace is really easy. It has nice templates to work off of and the design and building process is intuitive. They have done a really good job making a platform for non-web-developer people.
