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. ----- ### "You can't get much better even if it has issues sometimes\!" — 4.0/5 > **Dennis** | *October 3, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's very easy to install with almost any hosting platform. It's also very easy to self host. Updates are easy and can even be set to auto install so that you can always have the latest security updates. > > **Cons**: There are many vulnerabilities. This is mostly due to it's popularity as it powers more websites than any other platform. Sometimes it takes too long to have things patched but that is not always an issue with the core of WordPress. That could very well be an issue for the addon and theme devs. > > Overall my experience has always been great. There's been times when I have been frustrated with the platform but due to it's widespread use and open source nature, fixes are almost always readily available. ----- ### "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. ----- ### "Very flexible, but my only comment would be that needs maintenance" — 5.0/5 > **Roger** | *January 3, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how flexible WordPress is and how many plugins and themes are available. It allows you to customize almost anything and build different types of websites. > > **Cons**: Sometimes it can be slow if you use too many plugins, and updates can cause conflicts. It also requires maintenance and basic technical knowledge. > > Overall, my experience has been very good. WordPress is a powerful platform for websites, but to use it properly you need time, good setup, and regular maintenance. ----- ### "Absolutely a WINNER\!" — 5.0/5 > **Swagat** | *April 17, 2026* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I love about Wordpress is it's ability to help you integrate many available plugins to your website to make your site more rigid and offer more features to it. For eg: live chat plugins, woocommerce integrations, Paypal payments, etc. Everything at one place for you to use. The other reason I like WordPress is because it is absolutely FREE to use. There's a variety of free themes to choose from too. Absolutely, a WINNER\! > > **Cons**: I do not specifically have any complaints so far with WordPress. But, I wish it gave users more flexibility in terms of editing few stuffs without knowing the code. For eg, for some themes, if you want to get rid of their footer, you can't do it from the dashboard. Instead you would have to go to the CODE section is figure out the removal. For someone with a little bit of code knowledge, it's not a problem, but for a non-techy person, that's going to be a pain. > > I have been using WordPress to design and develop websites for my personal portfolio and business needs. ----- Page: 1 / 600\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/131687/wordpress?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/131687/wordpress) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
