## Reviews

### "Wordpress - The most used software in my daily routine" — 4.0/5

> **Patrick** | *March 7, 2026* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use. I can get a simple page up and running in literally minutes, and an ecommecre site in under an hour.  Beyond that, the templates and add-ons make it possible to design really great looking, functional websites across multiple industries.
> 
> **Cons**: Free plug ins.  Most plugins have the danger of being hacked, especially if not updated.  People...it's free for a reason. Purchase the upgrade\!
> 
> I have been using wordpress for years, starting back in the day of name.wordpress.com to buuld your owne personal page. My websites have ecommerce embedded with payment solutions that I can manage myself. Plus for my personal sites, I can have a lot of fun creating different designs and add-ons.

### "Affordable, Flexible, and SEO-Friendly" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *March 18, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like the most about WordPress and why we recommend it to most of our clients is its affordability compared to other platforms, and also because it is incredibly user-friendly and offers great quality and functionality.
> 
> **Cons**: When we are changing the fonts and their sizes, sometimes and for some reason, the text doesn't pick up the font size and it doesn't appear visible, which force us to do it manually and try to guess the same size that was used before. Its something minor, but if this could be fixed that would be great.
> 
> As the owner of a marketing agency, I’ve worked with a variety of website platforms for our clients. We feel very comfortable working with WordPress. Its always being easy to use, easy to control to perform SEO, and we like the variety of customization options. Our experience has been great.

### "Software for pros" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *February 12, 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like about wordpress the flexibility that the software has. Because is user friendly with CMS, SEO and create everything from the scratch.
> 
> **Cons**: What I don´t like about wordpress is the constant upgrade that need, the cost is high for everyone and is less scalable.
> 
> My overall experience is basic, to make simple changes and content updates. The software needs a lot of knowledge to create more deep changes.

> 
> **Pros**: WordPress had exhaustive features for website building and design. The customer support was good and overall good value for money.
> 
> **Cons**: I found the software very complex and ultimately it didn't work out for me as it was too overwhelming for my first time building a website.
> 
> Great software, but complicated and overwhelming for someone who is new to website design. It has many great features but I found that there were additional hidden fees for many of them.
