A highly professional and sophisticated software

What differentiates Squarespace from other similar products?

I've used many website builders and so far, Squarespace has proven to be very efficient, complex, yet simple to learn and use. The templates are sophisticated and contemporary, giving me great visual options for food industry related website designing. The email templates are also up to par as you can brand its design with one's website branding and look. The marketing tools are exceptional, too, and very clear to understand and execute.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love the ease of moving the blocks around and also updating each page when needed. The same with the weekly email newsletters as they need to be changed every week, yet the adjustments are done very quickly and easily thanks to Squarespace's integrated and manageable software.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I wish there were more Text Font options for the email newsletters.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Once you learn the software well, the creativity part will take over, and from there the capabilities are so many. Using Squarespace has become quite enjoyable to use :)
