Easy but lacking
I’ll admit that Wix is one of the easier website builders to use but it is lacking many features I needed to make the most of my shop.
Pros
The layout options are pleasing to the eye
Cons
If you want to do anything advanced then you need to be familiar with how to code
Great for new brands
I used it to set up my new website and was able to create something I was happy with and didn’t even have to contact a developer.
It started as a test run..and the rest is history!
I underestimated Wix at first because I had no experience building websites, let alone online stores. Fast forward a year and 20+ sites later and I can say I’m in love with it.
Start with Wix
I was looking for a website builder for my store many years ago and it was between WordPress and Wix. Wix won because WordPress seemed like a lot of work and I’ve not regretted my choice since then.
Pros
- Easy to add products and variations
- There are built-in options for memberships and alternative payment methods
- I can see all orders in the backend and manage them from there
Cons
I can only use the apps in the marketplace
I can only use the apps in the marketplace
As part of my day job, I assess different software solutions for our organization and clients. Wix has stood out time and again because it’s versatile but not overwhelming for new users.
Reasonable price, great features
Wix gets my recommendation because it is easy to use, has tons of features for both eCommerce and building and website, and is fairly priced for what it offers.
Pros
- Clean and user-friendly interface
- Tons of templates to choose from
- Easy to connect a custom domain
- Lots of options with the eCommerce platform like product variations
- Can edit mobile and desktop sites independently
Cons
- The options for reservations can be improved
- You’re unable to edit most of the auto email sent out after a purchase
The tool of tomorrow
There are many tools that allow people to build standard stores but not exceptional ones like Wix. With Wix, you can take your website from OK to amazing within a few days or even hours in some cases.
Wix eCommerce is the only way to go
I chose Wix because I found it to be easy-to-use and because WordPress was a lot of work, and I haven't looked back.
Wix is the go to for beginners
My website/portfolio is built using Wix, which is an amazing and very easy to use professional tool that has helped me create an awesome website, although I am not a professional web designer
eCommerce is perfect
The interface is simple and easy to use. The eCommerce integration is easy and effective. The analytics shown of the website, according to how many people visit the page and the time they spend, is valuable and informative.
Nothing better than Wix
What I like best about Wix is how easy it is to design a custom website with only a few clicks. In comparison to other websites, Wix stands out for its ability to link images to files, making information accessible at the click of a button which is more difficult on other websites.
