Infinitely extendable

What do you like best about the product?
Wordpress allows you to choose a theme, then expand that theme with various plugins. With enough determination, you can make just about any website with only a fraction of coding experience. It's large user base means that there is a lot of information on the internet to help you if you get stuck.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some more advanced plugins required more advanced coding skills. Theme and plugin creators do not always provide information and instructions as clearly as one might like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm a designer with some coding skills. I know enough to understand what some code is doing, but I am not a developer. However, I often work with clients on a budget, and I can't afford to hire additional developers to create a completely custom site. Wordpress helps me create sites and then deliver a product to my client who can learn to make updates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check out Elementor. This plugin is quickly becoming my favorite page creation tool.

The standard in site and brand building

  • August 24, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Wordpress feels limitless in what they will let you accomplish with your site or brand. Whether you are hosting a simple blog or an enterprising ecommerce platform, Wordpress has the tools and support to allow you to accomplish those goals.
What do you dislike about the product?
For the beginning entrepreneur or site builder, Wordpress is NOT the easiest to learn. Their backend system is not as intuitive as they would like you to believe.

Wordpress has helped my organization grow their ecommerce platform as well as manage donations and email acquisitions. They are a great partner for us advertising our show, videos, blogs, articles, television networks and store.

A powerful and robust web content management system

  • August 22, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
WordPress is a powerful and extensible solution for web hosting and management. It is extensible, featuring a marketplace with thousands of extensions to add functionality to the platform. WordPress provides a fantastic solution for small, medium, or large organizations needing web hosting.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a popular platform, WordPress can be targeted by malware and exploits. The host must take care to keep it up to date and secure. Support for some of the extensions can be a bit challenging, with compatibility issues occasionally requiring extra attention.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a robust web content system, and WordPress fit that bill perfectly. We were able to host the servers and install WordPress ourselves. It was easy to find a design expert to craft a custom theme for our site, giving us a thoroughly branded experience for our users.

Great starter website

  • August 21, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to personalize, easy to use for someone who isn't great with website design and there are lots of great options to express yourself. Pricing is good if you want to pay for it, but the free version is also pretty great
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using WordPress for 20 years and unfortunately, there are more and more paid options when they would have been free in the past. It's a shame the loyalty isn't rewarded with free stuff.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've managed to set up my own business site, and use different ways of expressing myself and keeping records
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Perfect for small businesses, online journals, or ways of connecting to others. I have loved using Wordpress over the years and wouldn't change. I have multiple blogs with Wordpress and really the site has become much more than just a way to make a blog. It's easy to personalize and make money with your Wordpress and you can easily create your own email address and personalized site.

A somewhat intuitive webpage building tool

  • August 20, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can log in and make instant changes to my website. I like that there is the HTML editor as well as the visual editor.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how clunky the visual editor is. It feels like MS Word. I make a small change and to messes the whole page up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This allows me to be in charge of the website without any html training. We do not need to hire someone else to make small changes.

I created several blog and here is pros and cons

  • August 20, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's free. All you have to pay for is a domain name and web hosting.
With WordPress, you have 100% ownership of your website. Plus, you can choose your own web hosting and move your site whenever you want.
WordPress offers thousands of free, beautifully designed WordPress themes. This means you can customize the look of your website exactly to your needs and preferences.
WordPress also offers thousands of plugins, add-ons, and extensions to add extra power and features to your website.
Because WordPress is so popular, you can continue to use your favorite tools with your WordPress site. Most tools and apps integrate easily with WordPress such as email marketing tools, Customer Relationship Management software, payment gateways such as PayPal, and much more.
Another benefit of the popularity of WordPress, is the community. The WordPress community is so huge that there’s a ton of forums, tutorials, and websites online where you can learn everything you need to about the software.
What do you dislike about the product?
While many resources online will help you solve your WordPress issues, they don’t offer any direct support such as email, phone, or live chat support.
WordPress is pretty easy to use overall. But, there is a slight learning curve to becoming familiar and comfortable using the software because of the lack of a drag and drop builder. Luckily, you can use drag and drop WordPress page builders to make it easier.
When using WordPress, you’re responsible for the maintenance and security of your website, while other website builders handle this for you. This means you need to update WordPress regularly and use WordPress security plugins to keep your site secure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used it to create blogs, but also you can even generate e-commerce sites, business websites, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have covered several tutorials and theme providers to see what you can succeed
