“One of the best online builders.”

Julian D.
6/1/21

Hi, I'm always trying out online builders for one pagers or landing pages. There are so many now, With strikingly I found it to be very user friendly and just a pleasure to use. There are others I could mention here but Strikingly get the balance with the drag and drop, blocks and the user experience just right. The site editor has all the features that are essential and cuts out all the problematic aspects that I have encountered with other builders of it's kind. If your not used to building sites they also have templates galore to choose from and edit. Pricing is much the same as it's competitors but they do offer a free forever plan which is great if you only need one pagers. Highly recommended and for beginners there's probably a day's learning curve. Thanks.

“Strikingly.com = sneaky”

I cancelled on June 2,2022. I did not want to renew so I cancelled and they billed me anyway. They make the refund process exhausting and not guaranteed. Strikingly is a simplistic, silly platform far inferior to so many options out there like SquareSpace, Wix, WordPress, Shopify or Webflow. They have no advantages over the other website-builder options so followed their cancellation process about a month before the renewal date of June 27,2022. BUT(!) they charged me $192 anyway and won't refund! There misleading/no-refund cancellation process is indeed a designed monetization channel for Strikingly. It is deceptive and predatory. Not only do they ignore and/or obfuscate cancellation journey in their website, they deceitfully renew annual plans and fight hard against refund. Trust me, it's a battle. By design, they don't have phone support. In fact, they installed a subscription to my PayPal account that I was unware of. Very clever. I just can't have them keep doing this to people, so let's team up. I know you're frustrated too. Find me *******@FrankGizmo on Twitter. We can make this easy yet impactful.

Tip for consumers:
If you don't have your site planned out then go with a template and edit that because as with other builders it will give you the basic structure you need. Build from the left menu using one section at a time, don't try to build the whole site in one go because you'll end up getting confused.

Products used:
I used their free plan and now have three sites with them. Not sure about upgrading as It's $8 a month and I'm a WordPress user and pay about that per year with my Namecheap plan.

Tip for consumers:
Do not give them your billing info. They will charge when you're not aware, and won't refund.
