"Great Beginning Website Designer"
What do you like best about Jimdo?

This was easy to use right out of the gate, customizing and arranging things I needed plus had great add-ons that would make it easy for my clients to find what they needed. I liked the integrations and the easy way to set up a shop with ecommerce items and with payment portals. You can buy your domain and hosting through them too for one low yearly price.

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

There's really nothing that I don't like about this software.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

This is helping me have a great ecommerce website that also integrates a contact form, a tab for every aspect of my business as well as the ability to link tabs to outside sources so that each client can get precisely what they are coming to the website for.

"The faster solution for creating your website."
What do you like best about Jimdo?

Gives me a better way to choose my own type, coloration, backgrounds, and much more. Also, I have a chance to change our pattern at any time without losing our work. Very easy to drag and drop our images right to our site. I like that all of the processing load fast and with the higher quality.

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

The program has all working tools. I don't know any bad issues with this software. The product works fast and right so I'm sure that all my working task will be done in time.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have more useful tools which help our customers find us. All working steps at work more productive which makes our visitors be with us. We have a controlling system which helps to us to know all information about our working process.

"A really intuitive website development tool."
What do you like best about Jimdo?

I love the drag and drop elements feature that puts the guesswork and CSS out of commission. You can have as many or as few elements on a single webpage. You would rarely need to deploy code, which is good for newbies. When I started out, it didn't take me long to figure out the element addition, page creating, and interlinking. That is how easy it is to build your first website on JImdo.

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

The free tier does not allow you to do SEO. This restricts your free website's discoverability. You can simply use it as a portfolio website in the free version, and everything else is paid for. I hope the brand would be slightly flexible with its other features in the future. At least let us try things out before purchasing them.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I built my portfolio website with Jimdo. It is free and the server response time is far better than what you would get for entry-level domain hosting. I am testing out a new website development project on Jimdo.

"Good and not expensive"
What do you like best about Jimdo?

The use of the service is quite easy. We often use the drap and drop function to fill our site. Good opportunities for optimal money, even the PRO version (which is not the most expensive) completely suits me. Also good adaptation for mobile devices.

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

In general, I am completely satisfied with Jimdo. There are small comments on setting up templates and a limited quantity of payments that can be processing. A small number of templates, when I created my blog there were only three of them.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

First, I created my own blog to check the features and functionality of this CMS, and then using Jimdo we created an online store and are engaged in sales on the Internet.

"Good for portfolio and simple business websites"
What do you like best about Jimdo?

The simple User Interface and easy-to-use no-code editor make it very effective for developing simple portfolios and business websites that don't require many dynamic elements.

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

When we compare with other CMSs out there we can have several things to mention but if we just take Jimdo into consideration then only one factor comes to my mind and that is having an app store with apps developed by the Jimdo team itself.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Jimdo provides a no-code drag-and-drop website builder that allows anyone with no coding knowledge to build a website. It helps us in building portfolio websites for businesses.

"Very outdated website builder"
What do you like best about Jimdo?

As a small business owner, I found Jimdo to be a rather disappointing website builder. While the platform does offer some user-friendly features, such as drag-and-drop website building and customizable templates, it falls short in many areas

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

Firstly, the number of templates available is limited, and the customization options for these templates are quite basic. This made it difficult for me to create a unique website that stood out from my competitors. Additionally, the pricing structure is not very transparent, with different features and functionality available at different price points, which can make it challenging to know what you're getting for your money. The customer support offered by Jimdo is also lacking, with limited options for getting in touch with their support team and long response times when issues do arise.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We thought it can help solve the problem of not having a web presence, which can be a significant challenge for businesses that rely on local customers to drive sales.

Sometimes I wish there was just a little bit more flexibility to create a little more custom look to a website.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've used Jimdo to create e-commerce sites as well as lifestyle websites. I've realized that it provides the tools to create SEO friendly sites that look good.

"Does not include all necessary functions"
What do you like best about Jimdo?

What I like best is that it is a very intuitive tool. You can easily build a website or shop within seconds without any programming knowledge.

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

What I dislike is that even with an upgraded (paid) version, it does not include all necessary functions that for example an Online Shop needs. For example the payment methods are limited and if one wants to integrate a payment provider like Stripe one has to pay for it on top. Plus, the payment providers one can implement are limited, so one cannot choose any payment provider.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We build a website for the soccer team at our university.

"Terrible service"
What do you like best about Jimdo?

For building a basic web page, it's "ok". Honestly, that's being kind. They charge more than most competitors for a service which comes nowhere close to competing functionally.

What do you dislike about Jimdo?

They don't bother sending renewal invitations and instead just take a full year's subscription from recurring payments. Pricing does state renewable for a year but they quote in monthly fees to appear competitive. Trying to cancel is a nightmare, which means you end up renewing without wanting to and then they quote their cancellation terms when it's too late.

What problems is Jimdo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm mainly resolving the problem of having money in a bank account. Their service is worthless. Avoid it.
