Unlimited number of alternative plugins to select from, this enhances so many feature options and the setup of SEO features on the platform is superb
What do you dislike most about this product?
Since most of it's feature is dependent on plugins, using wordpress has a long learning curve with each plugins you add, you will need to learn how to use it independently. This numerous plugins also reduce the load speed of your website. I also get a mail of wordpress update every week and I wonder why.

I highly recommend wordpress, it's a good option for a large website with their robust content management portal, it is easy to integrate with other tools and socials and it's a good option for customization especially with users with coding skills.

Designing new websites for my clients.
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates WordPress.com from other similar products?
The main difference is that Wordpress contains better tools to boost website creation, plus it has greater compatibility with more pre-designed themes, which ensures that we create websites with varied designs for our cleints. Wordpress also has better data storage, which is much more secure than other platforms.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I really liked the compatibility and acceess that the Plugin store has, this allows for adding more essential funtions for the operation of websites and allows for adding additional functions to the Wordpress tool. Wordpress stores backups every minute, which guarantees that all changes generated in the entire website are saved. Wordpress allows you to more easily manage sections of a website, adding blog entries, new pages, new list of team members and much more.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The Wordpress tool blocks user access if a malicious file is detected in the database, and you will not be able to access the tool until you reset it to factory settings. Sometimes changes to a website are not visible instantly, and for this you have to clear the cache stored in the tool, to see the changes in real time.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I recommend properly scanning each file you upload to the Wordpress website database, since if a malicious file gets in, the only way to remove it is by resetting the entire database and deleting all the files.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
