Not familiar with Wix at all, I'm afraid. They don't have a good reputation. The new GeoCities.
Well it does help me as I am still in a SOLO IT shop after 11 years...don't have time to code a website...
Is Wix saving you time? LOL
You don't code websites, you use tools like Hugo or Gatsby if you need something simple, or WordPress if you need a CMS.
One of the reasons those tools are recommended for businesses is the time savings.
It might actually help now, there's every possibility that it might actually be faster to move to something else than to troubleshoot Wix where you are dependent on their support.
Well, it also helps that the owners daughter wants control of website too so this is another reason I did Wix about 5-6 years ago.
That makes sense. WordPress is typically used specifically for that too, but doesn't tie you in to a vendor-only supported product where the host owns the site that you make. WP keeps you from being able to be extorted for support or whatever. That's its purpose (to allow easy editing by a staff of people.) Since WP is the best known tool, it's the one that best allows random third party people to be involved.
Definitely seems odd to pick Wix over WP.
Maybe they already knew it (the daughter). Wix is definitely my #1 platform to avoid. It's been the bane of the web since its inception. Just a totally shit product and lots of people avoid companies that host with it as being similar to using hotmail email instead of your domain.
