I've used Wix for multiple client websites. Ease of use and function.
What do you like best about the product?
It is very user-friendly with a lot of design flexibility. There is no need to understand code. The event options, services, and SEO capabilities walk you through the process of setting your site up for success without having to be an SEO or web expert. The templates are beneficial, and a large variety of content is in their content library. It also allows you to edit assets and resize images to optimize them for quicker load time. You can upgrade and downgrade your plan to fit your needs. It has the capabilities to utilize e-commerce and sell products and services on the site. They offer various plugins to choose from that work with Wix, and you do not have to worry about troubleshooting. The Email marketing is an excellent resource as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be challenging to navigate the event pages and registration if you do not know what you are doing. The Event registration page is not visible in your page menu, so you have to access it from a different menu so which can be confusing. The cost of the e-commerce options is more than I would prefer to spend as a small business just starting if there is no plan in place for advertising to get sales through the website. But it is a reasonable price for those that plan on having a steady stream of orders through the website.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have build websites using Wix for multiple non-profits and small businesses. The non-profit utilizes the event registration and payments, the chats, the ability to embed video and content and use various pages and sub-pages. It makes website building straightforward if you have the basic knowledge and need to produce something timely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Wix is the most user-friendly platform I have used in website building. I have had issues with other sites such as WordPress, Squarespace, and Square that I have not had with Wix. It makes designing websites in a time crunch straightforward and doable.

AMAZING customer support and products for different skill levels!
What do you like best about the product?
Wix has been the answer I needed to my website issues. I came to them after a catastrophic experience elsewhere, and they picked me up, dusted me off, and put the tools that I needed to learn and grow professionally. The tools that they provide with the basic editor ADI are great for someone who has no experience. I ended up progressing to the standard editor, and when the now almost notorious tech glitch that I bring out of things reared its head, I discovered just how wonderful they are. They are doing customer support at a level far above almost every other company I have had experiences with over the last year. I only have to click a button, give a very brief explaniation of my problem, and I am given the choice of a chat or call back. I have never waited more than a few minutes for them to respond. I have had contacts with them that lasted from a few minutes to a couple that lasted a few hours. They didn't give up, and not one time was I told to give up doing it myself and hire somebody. In addition, they have released multiple new products and updated editors in the last few months.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are certain things that, at my skill level, are not flexible within the editor and the store setup. From what I understand, some of those are flexible with Editor X and Velo, but I don't have personal experience with those.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been able to build and publish a fully functional website. The library of learning options has been so beneficial. I had to search definitions when I first started this journey to even understand on a base level what people were telling me.
Small company user
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use, graphical, and the results are immediately viewable.
What do you dislike about the product?
We used to have some slowdown on our webpage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing ourselves our web page.
Amazing, fully featured, free website builder - no code necessary!
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about Wix is how easy it is to create robust websites with just a few clicks. Wix stands out above the others for the ability to link an image to a file making things accessible at the click of a button that other websites make much more challenging.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is very little I dislike about Wix. If I have to choose something, it would be that the URL you share with their free sites is a little long and annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wix has allowed me to easily and quickly create interactive websites to use for different projects and classes. I've used it for so many different projects, and over the years, we use it for one specific unit - Wix makes it's easy for me to copy the previous year's website and update it to the current year.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a robust and free web designer for school projects, this is a fantastic platform for teachers to use to put together unit showcases, projects, or a class website. If you are looking for a web designer for students to use, I would not recommend this for elementary or middle school, but Wix would be great for high school or beyond!
Great starting point for beginners who want to have full design access.
What do you like best about the product?
Wix is great for those who want to have an easy interface and full design control over their site. It's fairly easy to work around and has a great number of different apps that you can add on.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wix can be really glitchy, I won't deny that. If you don't have the patience to work with a sometimes slow site, then it's not for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've built all of my sites on Wix, from my personal, to my business, and even client websites. It's easy to take orders, create an auto-email, and manage your contact lists.
Intuitive, functional web platform with lots of customization
What do you like best about the product?
LOADS of customizing and design options, even with the free version. Hundreds of templates to choose from if you dont want to start from scratch. Easy to simply drag and drop layouts and formatting tools. Easy to add variety of widgets and apps. Easy to develop and design webpage. Even those with little to no website design background can easily apply the templates and tools to create a unique and attractive website. Simple and intuitive interface. Easy to upload media and doucuments. Site speed is very fast, even with lots of media incorporated.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even thought it is to be expected, using the free site forces Wix branding on your website name. Depending how professional you want to look, you would want to choose a premium plan. Would be nice if there were more analytics available with the free version. While it provides many templates to choose from, it does not allow customization within those templates, which would be nice. Can be a little confusing orienting the desktop version to a mobile device. Overall, for the sole purpose of promoting our program and research, there is very little to complain about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Use of Wix has greatly benefited our research lab's and program's online presence. Has been a great way to share our projects and reach potential research partners and collaborators.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a complete package in website design, this is it. The options and capabilites of the free version alone make it worth it, as long as you do not mind the Wix branding on the website URL.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Wix is very ideal tool for websites building,editing and hosting this anybody should purpose to use it.
Excellent Web Design Service
What do you like best about the product?
Wix is the easiest website builder I've ever used. As a designer, I like the open canvas it gives me to fully display what I visualize for the website. It really makes building the website you imagine easy because it doesn't box you in with pixel counts, coding or the limits of a grid-based drag and drop system. That being said, they have a nifty search feature that assists with this tremendously!
What do you dislike about the product?
The amount of tools at your disposal are enormous. Even though this is great, it makes finding what you want to do very difficult. It takes a while to learn where are the different tools are. However, once you get the hang of it, the web building process is smoooooooothh.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We currently use Wordpress for our main website, and although it's nice, it's not really flexible when you have to build a landing page with short notice due to all our special events. Wix makes it easy to make an event specific site with a custom domain (or subdomain) and allows us to have a beautiful interface with minimal work and attention. For example, we were in the middle of switching website builders (Ministry Designs to Wordpress). I knew if I built a custom webpage for an event months in advance, I would have to recreate it once the new website launched. Instead, I built a simple beautiful landing page site where people could register and pay for the event without accessing the parent website.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider the costs of hosting, security, etc. Also consider the time you'll spend with the support teams for endless plugin issues, updates, regular security maintenance, etc. Wix takes care of all of this for pennies on the dollar. It's a no-brainer.
Tried several other competitors and Wix wins them all
What do you like best about the product?
It's very user-friendly and has much more customizations available. I was able to build a professional-looking website easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that Wix uses your email user name as part of your URL unless you upgrade for a custom one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to create websites for all uses.
Great Marketing Tools as a Wix-er!
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature on Wix is the video making and marketing tools. I do have to pay a subscription to be able to use the Video making tool on Wix and send newsletters to my subscribers, but it is really worth it. The number of videos I can create is endless and I never run out of any music to match my videos with. It helps me market my products a lot faster than hiring an agency because I can create the videos on my own. As an artist and designer, I like to create my own products, not buy other people's products. It's a way to be artistic, creative, innovative, and productive! I have a lot of fun creating high quality videos and uploading them onto my social media. I save A LOT of money doing this and not hiring a social media marketing staff.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I am limited to how many videos I can create. Although I can create many videos and newsletters with the Wix Marketing feature, I wish there were more possibilities in creating the video. I wish it could automatically link my videos to other types of social media rather than limited to Facebook, Pinterest, Youtube, and Instagram. The Wix platform is designed to help businesses that provide service, not online stores. I had to create a Shopify store outside of Wix to create a sales part in my business, Kristie Kim Design.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving problems linking websites to Wix. For example, Shopify is not partnered with Wix, which means I have to upload products separately on my Wix store and Shopify store. To make my life easier, I ended up linking the Shopify store to my Wix account so that I don't have to spend too much time uploading products onto my store. It is a lot of work and brainpower involved to generate traffic to the store but Wix has features that allow me to link the store to the website. I started off creating a Wix account to showcase my art and design portfolio, but now, it's a sales business where customers can purchase products from my store. I think the Wix product store looks unprofessional compared to the Shopify store.
