Overall Satisfaction with Wix

We use Wix for our primary website, it houses basic information about the company, provides some educational information and has some lead generation contact forms.
  • I think if you need a very basic website as a novice it is pretty accessible.
  • I found Wix doesn't play well with other programs. For example when we were using LeadPages it did not integrate well at all with and as I prefer the LeadPage platform for landing pages it was quite frustrating.
  • MailChimp doesn't integrate with Wix well either and I had to rely on Zapier to the automation. As someone who has used WordPress for years and seeing that they integrate easily with many of the common digital sales platform I feel that Wix just isn't cutting it.
  • Honestly I don't think the website has really helped us achieve or lead generation of goals by any means as most of the programs in our sales funnel don't integrate well with Wix.
I think Wix can't compare to WordPress. WordPress is much better and integrates beautifully with the programs and applications we rely on.
I think Wix is great for those who are just creating a website to have a digital pretense but don't need a lot of customer interaction on the page.
