The web builder is more drag and drop. ----- ### "Solid and continually progressing platform" — 5.0/5 > **Cathy** | *20 February 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We love using Squarespace to build sites for clients who need an easy platform to navigate, with a very user friendly interface. The templated sections make building very fast and the sites are always clean with hardly any technical issues. > > **Cons**: The level of CSS you need to know for customization can be an issue for some people, however, there are good online resources to teach you. The pricing is also sometimes an issue for clients who are lured by sales on WordPress sites. > > We've built sites in Squarespace for over 8 years. We've seen a lot of improvements in each iteration of the builder and have consistently been able to quickly create professional, clean websites. For some of our clients, the drag and drop builder is ideal for them to make their own updates (honestly, why are you paying someone else to change a photo?) There are limitations to what you can customize/change without CSS, which is also a good thing when it comes to clients accessing their sites, too. :) On the few times we've needed to connect to customer support, the team has been responsive and resolved matters quickly. ----- ### "An easy-to-use CMS for design and content edits" — 4.0/5 > **Ollie** | *29 June 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Expanded design options and still very simple to use for making content edits. Other CMS platforms create unnecessary complexity, unlike Squarespace > > **Cons**: Lack of block options compared to other CMS platforms like WordPress. Complex or more bespoke website designs become difficult to create > > Great starting point for beginners creating simple websites. Content edits are straightforward to make ----- ### "Not worth the money, but technically does the job." — 2.0/5 > **Anna** | *19 February 2026* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked the high amount of templates. You really can just put your images and copy into most of them and end up with a beautiful website. It had decent SEO features. Somewhat easy to navigate and use. > > **Cons**: It is not in any way worth the cost. They charge more for nearly every aspect of service from payments to web hosting to domains. Customer support is kind, but lacking. The user interface is buggy and often extremely confusing. I also constantly encountered bugs on my site. > > Never returning, but it's not a uniquely horrible product. I could use it, but I would rather put my money into tools that offer more rather than just charging more. ----- ### "Makes the hard stuff easy" — 5.0/5 > **Eric** | *24 June 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how easily you can create a website using all the templates. They make a hard process pretty simple, removing the barrier to set up a website. > > **Cons**: If there was a place to build a website for a one time fixed expense, even a high one, is be much more willing to use Squarespace. Paying $25 a month in perpetuity is rough, and y'all have no other option. > > Overall positive. I've used it for a few small businesses over the years and they always have the web design I need. ----- Page: 1 / 138\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/157453/squarespace?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/157453/squarespace) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
