Stunning Templates: Squarespace really shines here. The templates are modern, clean, and immediately make your products look professional. If your business is highly visual (like art, photography, or high-end retail), this is a huge win.

Ease of Use: It's an all-in-one platform, which is great for non-technical users. Setting up the basics—adding products, customizing pages—is very intuitive. You don't need to mess with separate hosting, security, or many third-party plugins.

Integrated Commerce Tools: The built-in inventory, tax, and shipping settings are straightforward and sufficient for a small-to-medium-sized operation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited Scalability & Integrations: If you plan to scale rapidly, manage thousands of products, or need deep integrations with niche third-party software (like specific accounting or warehouse management tools), you might eventually feel restricted. It's not as robust as a dedicated e-commerce giant like Shopify.

Less Flexibility: While the templates are gorgeous, the design freedom is more contained than platforms like WordPress. If you need highly complex or custom layouts outside the template structure, it can be a bit challenging.

Pricing: The higher-tier commerce plans can get pricey, and you need to be on a commerce-specific plan to avoid transaction fees (which is a must-have for any serious seller). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the easy drag and drop features and also the clean and high quality pictures.

Just the fact that it's limited to designs

I've built my career designing websites on this platform, so you can say that I am in love with almost all the features! However, the best part about Squarespace is that it makes it easy even for non-coders or non-technical people to manage their websites while website designers like me can enhance the platform's native capabilities by adding custom code. The fluid editor is very responsive and intuitive and makes creating new pages a breeze! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd love to see more animations and editing tools! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have built several websites using Squarespace. I love how easy it was to learn, how easy it is to get help from the Squarespace community (Squarespace Circle) and maintaining websites from a agency standpoint. Integrations are also very easy! Custom coding available as well! Squarespace is becoming feature rich too with email marketing offerings too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't say I have found anything I dislike about Squarespace. If you are looking for a more technical web builder then maybe? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Squarespace makes things infinitely faster, better-looking, easier to update and get a fantastic-looking website set up quickly and easily. I use it every single day for clients, and it is so much better than any other builder I have used. It's flexible, has amazing mobile responsiveness, has fast performance, and is great for SEO and schema. It integrates seamlessly with any embedded code needed, directly integrates with GA4, Search Console and other platforms. If you're thinking about making a website, I would recommend Squarespace over anything else, especially WordPress, which is eternally frustrating to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the Events settings on Squarespace, the date does not have a time zone function (one can be added fairly easily with some custom CSS) and there isn't a recurring event function which can be time consuming if you have a weekly or daily event, but at that point making a dedicated landing page is worth while and a reasonable fix.

It is easy to customize my website, the many features help make my website unique. They offer email campaigns, which use and like a lot too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing, I would like it if it was less in price to use and less for email campaigns. I use the email frequently so it is worth it, but could always be less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been with Squarespace since 2013 and what I keep loving about it is the user interface which is clear, minimal, and simple to use even for nonweb developers. I've created numerous websites with them and keep staying because they are always on top of the market trends and technology developments. They offer designer-made templates to start building your website with integrated e-commerce, marketing and so much more. Squarespace customer support is one of the best I have ever talked with - always happy to help and quick to solve any issues that might come up. I use it daily and I love the additional integrations with other providers like Mailchimp or SEOspace to name just a few. I brought my domains from another provider and the steps to connect them with my websites were as easy as 1,2,3 but you can also get a domain straight from Squarespace. Implementation of my digital assets to my website is easy and smooth and I love referring to Squarespace resources page that includes in-depth articles and how-to videos. The support is just always there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There was just one thing that at first frustrated me and that was the process of switching from Squarespace 7.0 to 7.1. But I took it as a challenge and an opportunity to re-design my existing website so no harm feelings. And the abilities I have now with 7.1 are non-comparable.

I love how easy it is to change the aesthetic and add in our own custom code. CSS and HTML is simple to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes it can get expensive with all the add-ons needed to run a successful e-com brand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that allows me to present my small business professionally online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The lack of customer support and available tech support staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Squarespace is easy to use for someone that is not technical at all. The templates are awesome. It's easy to figure out things you get stuck on with all of the resources provided. It's so intuitive. I have two websites for different parts of my business one e-commerce and one 'normal' website' and I love how easy they both are to buld and maintain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don't like is that a) I can't use my company font on the website, which means my branding doesn't match the rest of my branded marketing materials, b) Klarna is not available to add on UK Squarespace websites, and c) the DHL widget is not available to add to Squarespace to help with my shipping.
