Wordpress is very difficult to design site with; very unintuitive; had to struggle to get the header and footer off my pages, had no idea why the were there and it's just difficult. If I would have know I would not have signed up with BLue host

Horrible. I could not access and made repeated efforts through help which was useless. What was an easy access now is a nightmare. Congratulations on screwing up what was a user friendly system

Mostly good, had some terrible customer service though recently. Thinking about changing providers solely because of how bad it was.

The new layout is disorganized, making it difficult for me to locate my domains during the WordPress installation from Softaculus. The Bluehost WordPress installation process is time-consuming, and I encounter issues installing SSL on domains as I did before. Assigning domains has become challenging due to the disorganization and lack of user-friendliness. Unfortunately, I find myself having to contact support repeatedly for SSL or WordPress installation assistance.

The new interface just create more steps before getting to my account management. Also, you add more JS and tracking sites that prevent the interface work while there are anti-spam extension

I can see why the UI was changed, to Focus and Guide your Service Routings. No small effort to manage through that.

But you stripped much of our ability to administer our environment. There are so many "error messages" upon submitting Domain and DNS entries, that we must CALL IN every time. Even your own Level 1 support team is blocked by these errors. I have no less than 4+ hours of chats and calls, for what would have normally been about 5 to 10 minutes worth of changes. It's been a very poor experience so far. But as someone who consults and coaches very large software orgs, I have empathy for your Strategic pivot and I wish you a quick recovery.
