### 5/5 — Actually a pretty good app! I use it to manage my car sales leads

*2024-09-03, version 4.2.3*

Five stars

### 4/5 — Great

*2023-11-05, version 4.2.3*

Strikingly is a amazing website creation platform but has some glitches.

### 5/5 — Their Live Chat support is excellent, I mean EXCELLENT

*2023-09-23, version 4.2.3*

Well deserving of 5 stars. I looked at other do-it-yourself website apps before, so I was expecting this to be more or less the same, and to some extent it is… it builds websites! The difference this time for me is how amazingly helpful I found the Live Chat support to be. 
Genuinely impressed!  I’ll use this one again.

### 5/5 — Easy to use and support is great.

*2023-09-21, version 4.2.3*

I haven’t needed much support but the bit I’ve used has been incredible. I’ve been building websites since ~1995 and love how quick and easy I was able to use Strikingly to spin up a simple site. This iOS app is great as well.

### 5/5 — It’s easy and really good!!!

*2023-06-30, version 4.2.3*

I love this website builder it’s easy for beginners and for pros it’s cheap and lets you pay in a long term then a short form

### 5/5 — Strikingly for the WIN!

*2023-02-07, version 4.2.3*

I have LOVED this platform from the first time I started using it a few years ago. The interface is simple and ever evolving and expanding to the farthest reaches of my boutique business imagination and beyond! I LOVE that the Customer service reps are called “Happiness Officers” 😹 They are ALWAYS on hand and ready, willing and exceedingly capable of helping! I HIGHLY (and SOLELY) RECOMMEND STRIKINGLY. ☺️

### 5/5 — I love strikingly!

*2022-04-27, version 4.2.3*

1. I can write about anything I want.
2. I can put any pictures I want.
3. I can make different categories.

Those are just three reasons why I love strikingly, but there are many more!!!
I recommend this app to anyone who doesn’t know what to do.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-01-29, version 4.2.3*

So far, so good! I’m on the free plan for now checking out all the awesome features before I commit to a plan as I wanted to make sure this is the right fit for my small business. I’ve tried other website builder and they really lacked eases risk features and a professional look, but not strikingly. I love how easy it was to build my own website instead of having to hire out someone else to build me a site on another platform , like I have done in the past. Having complete creative control is so much better for me and this site let’s me do it all. I especially love the app for easily checking in on my site from my iPhone.

### 5/5 — WOW

*2021-11-14, version 4.2.3*

Wow i have had this for 1 year i think and it is amazing one thing though how do you get a custom domain name without mystrikingly.com and instead ??????.net ???

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-04-30, version 4.2.3*

This company’s product is OK, not great, not terrible. The problem is their insufferable refund policy after they auto-renew you year after year without warning or any possibility of a refund. I had to dispute it with my credit card company. Beware! These guys are shady.

### 1/5 — Rude Dismissive Service Agents Who Try to Upsell as a Solution even after 5+ Years of Patronage

*2025-11-27, version 4.2.3*

I have been using this for over 5 years. In over 5 years I have never asked for a refund for anything. I subscribed to their audience thing that worked HORRIBLY!! Literally could not chat with a single solitary person. Every single time the message would fail and the client would think they were being ignored then I would have to just revert to sending a plain old email. I thought it was cancelled. I realize it hadn’t cancelled. I reach out explaining everything and not one single attempt to problem solve was made. 

I ask to speak to a manager for over a month and they tell me they are refusing to let a customer speak to a manager…. Like what??? Huh?? Who does that??? That is soo rude. And for this to be my first time in yearssss ever even asking for something like this. 

Eventually after repeatedly asking they say they consulted with one and want to offer to sell me something!!!!

What??? The solution to my problem is they ask to sell me something???? HOW RUDE!!!

Uncivilized, unprofessional, very rude and dismissive behavior. Highly disappointed that a company I have used for so long and never once had an issue like this with before decided to treat me like nothing but a PIECE OF MEAT after all this time. 

Awful. Just awful.

### 1/5 — Terrible Company

*2023-11-17, version 4.2.3*

Strikingly will charge you for services that they do not provide and will then refuse to offer any refund. They will charge you after you have canceled / ended a service. 

Even a glancing search on Google or Reddit (or here) will bring up many such stories. They make a large percentage of their revenue off of these fraudulent charges, which is why they are so dialed-in and set on “no refunds” ever. This is the policy of cowards, though, hiding behind “there’s nothing we can do” and playing gatekeeper for the mysterious billing department that you can never reach. 

But, like all cowards, if you press hard enough, they will cave completely (and offer a refund.) So, if you’re one of the many out there who are fighting with them, I assure you that with enough effort they’ll break. When they tell you that they cannot offer a refund, they are 100% lying. 

Break them.

### 1/5 — Scam site. Beware

*2023-10-13, version 4.2.3*

All you need to do is look at BBB and other sights with reviews. They are scammers. Will charge your card for fees like saying 7 day free trial and you cancel it before that they will charge you anyway. Or say your free 100 members are up and and you have way less. Don’t do it

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2022-09-21, version 4.2.3*

After picking a template, you are confronted with a button saying “start editing” but when pressing the button, nothing happens. Only one template will allow this button to work, all the others don’t work.

### 1/5 — Always want something

*2022-08-29, version 4.2.3*

I look up free wedsite builder app on my iPhone and I scrolled down at the top were the original ones I knew weren’t free but strikingly said it was free now I publish me page then two weeks went by and they emailed me saying two weeks up pick a plan monthly or annually I mean where did it say that and why does every app on iPhone cost money I want a Samsung back.

### 1/5 — What

*2022-08-06, version 4.2.3*

I can’t move or type properly in the text boxes, and when I try and edit the pictures there is no options. I’m working on a iPad sooooo maybe it’s that but still there should be clear editing options

### 1/5 — Be Careful with their Billing & Subscriptions

*2022-06-11, version 4.2.3*

They are quite deceptive with auto renewal and payments. There is no option for auto renewal, you’re automatically setup tor auto-billing. Notifications on renewals come from a different sender and aren’t properly labeled. They won’t reverse charges. Was charged $200 for a service I no longer use. They will not issue me a refund, even though I reached out via live chat minutes after they sent through the charge. Would avoid using any of their paid services.

### 1/5 — Disaster Waiting to Happen

*2022-05-14, version 4.2.3*

There is no undo feature, which means one errant tap can destroy your site irreparably. Strikingly has become more buggy over time, and is certain to lose your work. Buyer / User beware.

### 1/5 — Strikingly-Yes, Mobile App-No

*2020-09-24, version 4.2.3*

My experience using strikingly as a web development tool has been, overall, very positive and I would recommend it to others as long as they don’t require too much personalization. This is when using it on a PC.

However, my experience using their Mobil app has been overwhelmingly negative. The biggest issue is that It hangs constantly. Additionally, not all of functionality has been ported over to the mobile version.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2026-07-02, version 4.2.3*

This is really easy  by clothes on getcoolkids.com not don but still

### 5/5 — Simple and FUNCTIONAL

*2026-04-24, version 4.2.3*

Strikingly is a simple website creation platform with great features and layouts that look professional. I like it because it works on mobile. A lot of platforms don’t work well on mobile anymore. I use my strikingly homepage to link to my orher work (books, designs, blog, social, YouTube) and it’s really great! Im glad they created it. No complaints,would recommend, simple concept done very well.

### 5/5 — Top of them all

*2026-01-26, version 4.2.3*

Really impressive

### 5/5 — Super fast way to get a nice site live!

*2025-09-26, version 4.2.3*

I build websites of all types and recommend strikingly to anyone looking to DIY a site fast—just write a strong description using ALL the available prompt characters and it really does a  good job setting you up.

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-06-25, version 4.2.3*

Es una aplicación muy completa y fácil de manejar.

### 5/5 — The Best Site Builder

*2025-06-14, version 4.2.3*

I can’t say enough good things about Strikingly.com! As someone who’s built three full websites using their platform—including centuryllc.com and its two sister sites for Century, LLC—I was amazed at just how incredibly easy and intuitive the entire process was. Strikingly makes site building feel effortless, even if you’re not tech-savvy. The drag-and-drop interface is smooth, the templates are beautifully modern, and you can get a polished, professional site online in no time.

What really sets Strikingly apart is their generous free plan—you can build unlimited free sites, which is virtually unheard of these days. It’s perfect for trying out different ideas or launching multiple projects without stress. And when you’re ready to upgrade, their paid plans are very affordable, offering great value for features like custom domains, e-commerce tools, and advanced analytics.

I also want to highlight their outstanding customer service. The chat box support is fast and reliable—every time I had a question or encountered an issue, a real person responded promptly. When needed, they didn’t hesitate to loop in their dev team to address backend concerns or tricky coding questions. That level of dedication is rare, and it makes a huge difference.

I’d absolutely recommend Strikingly to anyone—from professionals to complete beginners. If you want an stress-free way to build great-looking websites with helpful support behind you, Strikingly is the way to go.

### 5/5 — Shows Actual Level of Growth I’m waiting for the Global responses…

*2025-06-11, version 4.2.3*

The WHoly Grail…

### 5/5 — Fastest to build, intuitive, immediate support

*2025-03-27, version 4.2.3*

Ive been doing web design for 30 years. I prefer strikingly as a web builder because it’s intuitive to use, fast to create, and when Ive needed support the chat is instant and they’ve always solved my issue or linked me to an way to follow tutorial. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — First thought on first download

*2025-01-02, version 4.2.3*

So far the simplicity is there, you don’t get overwhelmed with buttons and configurations, in my book I’ll definitely keep using it for that reason alone, there a lot that it offers and can’t wait to keep using it!

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2024-11-02, version 4.2.3*

I went from Wix to Strikingly recently and glad I did! Much easier to use over the constantly changing Wix platform.  I got my website up and running in about 8-10hrs.  I had a lot of photos to upload so I chose the Pro package.  It’s been about 6 weeks now and my website looks professional and is working great.  They have many templates to choose from and the ease of use is very satisfying.
I highly recommend 5/5
