Great for Small Businesses
What do you like best about the product?

There is very little that I dislike about Wix- sometimes I wish for more background options that would better suit my personal brand, but that's about it.

It helps me to get my portfolio out quickly and easily, which in turn brings me more work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Easy to build, but has some quirks.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the "drag and drop" design feature when building the site. I like the ease with which I can create and position a text box, a gallery, or any other item, both for desktop and mobile.
What do you dislike about the product?
The blog has given me a number of problems. Unfortunately, being a digital marketing agency, we need our own blogs to showcase what we can do for other businesses; and because of glitches, our blog can't always be up to the standard we would want to provide for others. Glitches like lines breaking whenever text is formatted differently (bold, italic, etc.), not only make it time-consuming to create a blog, but also make it appear less professional to our viewers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I appreciate the Wix analytics on the blog, though I wish the site were more compatible with Google in-page analytics for the whole site. Our business has benefited from the Wix SEO Wizard, and from the simple fact that Wix sites look beautiful and professional.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Wix is best for companies or individuals looking for a beautiful site that is easy to use, especially if you are showcasing images, photographs, or video as part of a portfolio.
Wix Is Not As User-Friendly As It Appears
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the templates Wix had available.
What do you dislike about the product?
When creating a website on Wix, I found that it's editing features were not as user-friendly as Weebly. The drag and drop feature, for example, could be much more streamlined.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have created simple websites using Wix.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While Wix has made updates to make its platform more user-friendly, I still prefer using Weeby for creating simple, low-cost websites.
Easy but Unprofessional
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use. It has two different ways to access the back door of the website. There's the more in-depth site that lets you edit small details like text color and then there is a simple side that lets you quickly update content and images.
What do you dislike about the product?
limited platforms, out of date style, easy to make mistakes with some of the editing tools, poor search engine results
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our website is on a premium Wix platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking to build a site for fun, it's a decent option. I have seen better. It is not good for professional use.
Wix Review
What do you like best about the product?
That anyone can use it. It's very practical and you are able to pick from a few layouts, which is nice when you're not a designer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Messy backend, sometimes slow. Can be frustrating trying to resize photos and add in copy. You can only go so far with wix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using to create a website for a small business. Benefits include that you can quickly set up a site.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to take time to pick the right layout - if not, it's a bit of a pain to go back and try to pick a new layout and switch over.
Great WYSISYG site editor
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, easy to update, drag & drop editor that lets you build a beautiful site with no previous experience
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think there's anything I honestly dislike about Wix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to use, no previous tech knowledge required. Very intuitive and always adding new features.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it - you lose nothing by just browsing through their templates. They even let you build the site for free, and you pay only when you publish the site and link with your own domain.
A good software to use if you want to create a simple website for your business or blog
What do you like best about the product?
I´ve been using wix for a long time: as an intermediate web developer, I found out that Wix allowed me to create nice-looking websites in a fraction of the time it would take me to code it myself. What I probably find most interesting in this platform is its easiness of use. Basically you can complete your site in less than an hour, with only a few clicks here and there, dragging and dropping the elements you need, changing pictures, font size, style, and that´s it, you have created your brand-new website. Another cool feauture is that you get hundreds of free, high-quality images to make your design more pleasing to the eye (if you bought these images separately, they could cost around 10 bucks each, the price you´d pay for a monthly Wix subscription).
What do you dislike about the product?
It´s a bit hard to really customize your website. When you subscribe to Wix, you get a lot of awesome templates, which is good if you think those web desgins will fit your website puporses. Nonetheless, if you have a really specific web design in mind, and you want to customize it according to your needs, you´ll have a hard time doing this, and you´ll spend hours and hours (or even days and days) trying to make the website look the way you want it to be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I have a business idea, I usually like to create a website to promote that idea. Thus, my need of promoting a business idea online is solved when I create a good-looking website, and it´s even better if this website is up and running within a couple hours. I think that this is the problem that Wix is solving for me: helping me create a simple, nice-looking site in as little as one hour.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have no website coding skills, and want a simple website that promotes your business or blog idea, then Wix is for you. However, if you have a more elaborate idea (for example, you want to create an e-learning system to teach languages, or a Learning Management System to train your friends or your small company) then Wix is definitely not for you. Anyway, you can still use Wix to get inspiration and base the design of your own website on one of Wix designs, I´ve done this myself!
Wix Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like how wix offers a lot of designs, is easy/flexible to use and allows integration of 3rd party apps that you can add in.
What do you dislike about the product?
Templates cannot be changed and there's no access to source code.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building simple websites. Easy to quickly mock up a site.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think if you need something that is relatively easy to use then use wix. It's very intuitive.
Good Platform for a Quick Website
What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot of templates to choose from and even the least techno savvy person can get a site up in a day.
What do you dislike about the product?
For someone who is looking for advance settings, this is not the platform to use. Templates can be too boxy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simple websites for companies nor requiring a lot of pages and information for their customers to interact with them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a cheap option for an initial webpage. It can help you figure our what design and structure you may be looking for in a permanent or future website.
Wix for the win!
What do you like best about the product?
Wix is the easiest website builder to use. It's literally seamless. Even a beginner doesn't need a tutorial. So easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the way the messages from visitors come through. I wish there was some type of web browser notification or something. The emails continue to get stuck in our spam filter.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since we started using Wix, our website more accurately and effectively portrays who we are as a company. Our website is much easier to navigate, and it finally looks good on mobile devices!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Wix keeps things simple. Don't complicate things, and don't worry, Wix will make you look good.
