Kajabi vs. Wix

It works great for us in the education space and delivering our curriculum to our clients. It's nice to have some of the extra access features and to have the community feature, so that works great for us. At the same time, Kajabi lacks some of the specificity we need, and I don't believe it is technically geared directly to the education space, so we will likely switch providers in the next couple of years to something that is more robust and relevant to our business model.

The fact of Wix moving away from their ADI web-building tool in favour of Editor, in my opinion, makes a huge mess of everything. I feel a lot of the ease and automation of designing my website has gone to such an extent that I now "recommend" Wix only for professional developers. Worse is that I have to redesign a big part of my website as items are now linked to each other in a different way than used to be the case. In my opinion, A big ZERO for Wix, who clearly should do their homework again.

• With a featured button as opposed to just a hyperlink, it is incredibly simple to link to a page within an email.
• The marketing strategy's functionality and the ability to customize emails allow me to communicate with every client.
• Course creator to create digital products from your content.

• User-Friendliness: Wix is a lot easier to navigate than other web-building sites. Oftentimes it's like Wix does the thinking for you instead of just throwing endless options at you and complicating the process.
• Unique Content: Many services for generating websites, images, videos, etc. are starting to look the same and, for that matter, they're starting to look stale. What Wix offers feels fresher and cleaner.
• Reliability & Respectfulness: We have yet to incur any issues that have affected our web properties or routine to this point. Furthermore, Wix does not constantly throw new offers or new pricing or new requirements at us. They value you where you are.

• They've improved leaps and bounds, but their CRM is still subpar
• They have great uptime, but it could be better
• Affordability - I went in hoping to use their CRM feature and cut costs, but their CRM is lacking
• They offer a shopping cart, but in terms of being able to customize and payment option, they have a ways to go.

• One place where Wix falls short of other CMS's is with insights and analytics. On other platforms, I can instantly see how many page views I received, what time the pages were viewed, location, etc. But seeing this information on Wix requires a Google Analytics integration that is not automatically included when you make an account. You have to first go to Google Analytics to make an account, then come back to Wix to activate the integration, it's a little time-consuming for a feature that most CMS's come with instantly.

We are committed to it and once we get "really good" at using it, I think it is a excellent platform and links well to Hubspot. At present, we are still just barely scratching the surface with our use of its features

I’m happy with Square space as of now, and right now I don’t also have a team that would be able to review for me whether it’s worth switching again. Wix was great in the beginning of my career, but I needed something different to support the release of my new music. I like the price for Square space more too!

The back-end system can be used efficiently and has flexibility. It doesn't have a lot of unnecessary functions or un user-friendly features. We have had no issues using the system and would continue to use it with the current functions and features. I would rate it as user-friendly yet flexible

Great customization, but a pain to backtrack. They recently added the ability to set fonts etc as headings, title, body etc, but if you did not begin your build with these presets you are screwed if you ever try to change font/ colors/layout etc.

I never had an outage issue per say. I would say it was very reliable of a website building platform and as a marketing source there was never any issues connecting it to the server. I don’t recall there being any editing tools or hosting issues. Nothing went down when using it.

Not complex at all. It teaches you how to use their platform in a dynamic way. Each tutorial offers an explanation that can be reviewed later on. The connection speed of a web page has been smooth so far, with no major problems regarding this subject. Overall, Wix can manage 10+ pages with great connection speed.

The Kajabi Support people are helpful, fast and knowledgeable. I usually call in a panic - because I have lost something, messed something or am on a deadline. Sometimes we speak, or we do a chat. Always my angst is eliminated. I often thank the person for being "so patient" with me. LOL

As stated before I didn’t use the support as I did not have the feature and did not often enough need the help. I was able to figure it out mostly on my own by exploring the site. I’ve found exploring and playing on it told me how to do most things.

These platforms are big complex pieces of software. Mor recently - Kajabi provides a done for you example which you can borrow and customise - but those were not available when we started.

Like I said I was a beginner so it was fun to navigate and teach myself how to implement the features when building and maintaining my site. It was a fairly easy place to host my domain, and creat something simple.

Kajabi is more adjusted for learning needs. While Tilda and Wix can help to create very customizable designs for landing pages and great checkout experiences, Kajabi is more convenient for creating learning sequences. The best way is to use all these platforms together, so they can support the optional customer journey from landing page to learning on the course.

Wix is GREAT for a drag-and-drop website editor, but I prefer Squarespace. Squarespace has a lot more polished drag-and-drop modules. Squarespace feels more like a name-brand editor, as it's frequently discussed by many influencers online and has a high level of brand awareness. Wix is more customizable and can create a more tailored end product than Squarespace. Additionally, it is cheaper, which is another advantage for Wix.

I give this rating to Wix because it's a great content creator. It has a great platform and also offers great customer service. If you encounter any technical issues, with Wix you will find a solution. For premium members or domain holders, this is the same as for Trial members or non-domain holders.

• Saved around $100 a month thanks to combining several online platforms into one
• Saved dozens of hours not having to upload videos and images thanks to the Google Drive integration and URL Import
• Building pages takes a little longer than other page builders due to how many clicks it takes to exit and enter editing settings.

• Affordable - for those on limited to zero budget it is easy to get started and getyour business online. I was able to create a portfolio website that I could direct my clients to in order to view my previous projects.
• There is no need to pay a website designer (save on costs)- it is easy to get a website up and published on Wix that you save on not needing to pay a professional to do it for your start-up business.
