## Reviews

### "Such an easy way to create and manage everything web-related" — 5.0/5

> **Kieran** | *21 October 2024* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It makes websites, domains, email marketing, e-commerce, booking \&amp; scheduling... SO EASY\!
> 
> **Cons**: Price is on the higher side compared with other options.
> 
> I love Squarespace, and have used the site for my website, scheduling, domains, email marketing, e-commerce, Google Workplace subscription and booking/scheduling for years. It is SO easy to build a good website with Squarespace. I didn't need to pay someone to do this for me, and have been able to easily create a website I love. But, for me, it's the additional offerings that Squarespace offers that adds the most value. Their booking/scheduling system is great, and I use this to have clients book their meetings. It works seamlessly with my website. The email marketing is also brilliant, and easily sucks website content through to create email campaigns. And it's also great to be able to manage my Google subscription through Squarespace, too.

### "Great product, price is becoming a barrier" — 5.0/5

> **Tracie** | *13 February 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very user friendly for people who have limited-no experience with website design. I love the ability to integrate third party apps.
> 
> **Cons**: The cost keeps rising for the same features. The value of the items for the price they charge is starting to become a problem for me as a small business owner.
> 
> Good\! The platform is easy to use and set up for any website owner. The Squarespace team has a lot of different tutorials as well. The price point is starting to be the biggest pain factor for myself as a small business owner.

### "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.  &#10;&#10;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.  :)   &#10;&#10;On the few times we've needed to connect to customer support, the team has been responsive and resolved matters quickly.

### "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.

### "Iconic Tool for Personal and Corporate Branding" — 5.0/5

> **Dharmpreet** | *13 January 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I use Squarespace on a daily basis at workplace to streamline website design and creative \&amp; portfolio showcases.
> 
> **Cons**: Squarespace has never failed to accomplish all my needs ranging from our financial services branding to conducting webinars and conferences.
> 
> The event landing pages allocated by Squarespace allows me to collect registrations and share updates in one place.
