Wix
Wix is on the slide to oblivion
I noted the review before this one as I came to post and can confer the support at Wix is almost arrogant in responses. The Wix HTML has more bugs than the Amazon yet the support desk tries to put the issues on to various external areas like 'your' browser settings, 'your' choice of font, 'your' layout, which are all 'their' issues not yours; 'they' give you the fonts, it is within 'their' layout, and unless your a billionaire your hardly using your 'own' browser system!
If you are looking to use Wix for something simple, a website about your wedding day for example. then great but if it something more complex or for business I will categorically state : Avoid. This is a company who has either become fat and lazy or has over-expanded, Whichever it is the software is exceptionally frustrating, does not work with the latest Internet Explorer (yep you have read this right) does not appear on latest releases of IE and despite how it looks in the site builder what you get in a browser not only varies but can be completely different.
When I started using Wix over 2 years ago it was great, cheap enough to accept niggles without getting annoyed. It is now expensive in comparison to the market and they are so obsessed with getting 'more features' many which work dysfunctionally, if at all, that they lost sight of the core, a robust webcode,
We are stuck with one site of Wix (www,no-mans-land.me) as it too big to move, although it may look OK it is a frustrating time changing and updating. Our other main site www.platform-7.com will be migrating elsewhere in the coming months and all subsidiary artist sites that are on Wix are being wound down once the paid period is over. I hope we do not have issues of them trying to extract cash from us afterwards, as some reviews on the internet appear to indicate.
I considered seriously reporting WIx to the UK Advertising Standards Authority for some of their ad claims and what they state their 'system' can do. I decided I have wasted enough time on this company and will leave some reviews instead and let people decide for themselves. I am confident though that unless Wix pull their finger out and overhaul their approach it will not last a further 3 years.
