A Tool for the Tech-Savvy Team Lacking a Developer
Overall Satisfaction with Wix
We built and managed a website via Wix, extensively using their blog features and email marketing. The website builder is fairly manageable for people looking for a drag-and-drop experience, offering more detailed customization if desired. The blog offers some reporting -- though not all the analytics we'd like -- and there's some automation available with the email marketing systems.
Pros
- Customization
- Blog Analytics
- Simple Websites
Cons
- Integrations
- Forms and Pop-Ups
- Support
- Established and grew our mailing list
- Increased our organization's SEO by a ton
- Provided enough visibility that we're sought out by podcasts, news sources, and competitors
Wix feels very similar to the experience I had with Squarespace some years ago. It far exceeds Drupal, which we found impossible to customize or integrate with things without the help of a professional developer. WordPress, of course, offers infinite customization options for your website - if you know how to use it (and it often requires help from a developer). We chose Wix because we had an intelligent, tech-savvy team but no dedicated web developer.
