Why Do I Use WYSIWYG Web Builder?

Lots of good reasons, some of which are:

1. I found it a relatively easy transition from Serif's WebPlus X8 when I switched 18 months ago.
2. Pablo is a hands-on developer and is extremely open to suggestions for improvement. I have had most if not all of my own suggestions incorporated into the software (two more only today - thanks, Pablo).
3. The community here is helpful and supportive.
4. The software itself, whilst not 100% WYSIWYG, is fairly intuitive - there is a learning curve, but I found it pretty easy to climb.
5. There are so many extensions that work with WWB - the possibilities are pretty much endless.
6. Building a responsive site is easy peasy, especially with the new Easy Breeakpoints.
7. Publishing and maintaining the site from within WWB is very straightforward.
8. Setting up a members' area recently was really simple.
9. Creating forms is a breeze.
10. I know something is good when I find myself recommending it to anyone looking for a solution (and I do).

Started with Verson 14. The software I was previously using to build simple websites did not play nice when trying to implement ecwid ecommerce. I had one ecwid customer that needed ecommerce embeded into a new website I was building. So the search for a soluton began with this criteria:

Ability to embed ecwid into a website
Windows based applicaton
Not an online development tool - need to be able to choose and move hosting easily
Postitive reviews of products - depending on others experience so i didn't have to spend excessive time testing the product
Reasonable pricing - since i was buying at the time for one specific project- no subscription model considered

It took a bit of searching but I came across Wizzy and looked like it meet my requirements. Downloaded the demo and had a functional prototype of the website with ecwid in a couple of days. Bought a license and did the first site. By the completiton of the site it was WOW, this program is great. Within a few month the team of 4 independent developers I worked with had all moved to Wizzy.

So why is Wizzy my website building tool several years and numerous websitse later? First the program just works, and offers amazing functionality. The forum support is like no other software I have ever used. And then there is Pablo, there is just not enough positive to say. My biggest frustraion in the beginning was which tools to use. I was a bit overwhelmed by the choice of Layers, Layout Grids or Flex Grids as the foundation for a site.

Why I use WWB?:
1. Offline website builder (respectively, very good performance (very important!!!), responsive interface and independence from the Internet).
2. Wide functionality (a lot of settings, wide functionality for my tasks, many extensions, and so on).
3. Excellent user support (thanks to Pablo and all users).
4. The stability of the program (it crashed only a couple of times over several years of use).
5. The standard Windows interface (everything is familiar, everything is familiar).
6. Frequent updates (planned and urgent to resolve identified issues).
7. Excellent conditions for using the program (no subscription (alluya!!!), optimal pricing policy, discounts).
8. Clear logic and predictability of the developer (there is a schedule for development and updates. The whole logic of Pablo's actions is very close to me).

And... I'm just a fan of the program. I fell in love with it immediately after installation - everything is for me, everything is as I needed it! WWB has become an important part of my life, and I greatly enjoy working on the program and the results of this work. Over the years, you begin to appreciate very much what gives you pleasure and motivates you. 😊

Of course, there are problems at some points, but where are they not? I am sure that they will be solved by the developer, and we, the users, will help as much as we can!

I wish you strength and continued commitment to your work, Pablo!
