Choose Wix if…
- Your site has to grow, and Wix plans add payments, basic eCommerce and scheduling from Core, standard eCommerce on Business and advanced eCommerce on Business Elite
- You want momentum, with 211 classic Weebly sites moving to Wix in the 90 days to October 3, 2026 and Wix leading the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly) on G2 product direction 8.2 to 7.5, the widest gap of seven criteria
- Several people edit the site, and Weebly's pricing page lists no collaborator seats against Wix's 2 site collaborators on Light and 100 on Business Elite
Choose Weebly if…
- You want to sell from a free site, since every Weebly plan, Free included, has a shopping cart with unlimited items, inventory management, coupons and in-store pickup
- You want US prices up front, with Personal at $13 a month on annual billing or $16 month to month for a custom domain, and Professional at $15 or $20 for a free domain and no Square ads
- Your simple Weebly site already works, and the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly) edges Wix on G2 for ease of setup, 9.0 to 8.9, and ease of admin, 8.8 to 8.7
How we collect this data
Every number names its source and the date it was read.
211 classic Weebly sites moved to Wix in the 90 days to October 3, 2026 (TechnologyChecker, October 2026 crawl). Since tracking began on March 16, 2026, 287 have moved, 17 times what Weebly's own corpus-wide loss rate predicts. The flow back is too small to call a migration: 14 domains in 90 days and 17 in all, less than twice what Wix's own rate predicts. We detect Wix by its renderer headers, scripts and generator tag, and Weebly by its editmysite.com and weebly.com files. Weebly's rule also matches Square Online, so every count leaves out domains ever detected running Square Online. Wix is about 13 times larger. Its profile of August 15, 2026 shows 1,298,903 domains, 8.72% of CMS platforms and #2 in the category. Classic Weebly's profile of September 27, 2026 shows 98,301, 0.60% and #11. Pick Weebly for a small store on a free or $13 plan with US prices on the page. Pick Wix if the site has to grow into bookings, more editors or advanced eCommerce. Wix also has the momentum, with a G2 product direction score of 8.2 against 7.5 for the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly).

2 of 3 shortlisted alternatives are where domains actually go. G2 puts WordPress.com, Webflow and Ecwid beside this pair. Of those, WordPress.com and Webflow also appear among the technologies Wix leavers move to. The destinations we measure — WordPress, Squarespace, Webflow, GoDaddy Website Builder and Joomla — include Squarespace, GoDaddy Website Builder and Joomla, absent from G2's shortlist.
G2 scores features by category only when both products are rated on a shared feature set, and it publishes none for Wix and Weebly. The feature table above is ours, read off each vendor's own pages.
G2 also publishes an AI-generated summary and a set of generated FAQs for this pair. We link rather than reproduce them — they are machine-written, we cannot verify the claims in them, and the verdict and FAQs on this page are the editor's. Read G2's own comparison →
Wix
What people like about Wix. On G2's Square Online (formerly Weebly) vs Wix comparison page, read October 3, 2026, ease of use leads Wix's topic counts with 254 mentions, then easy creation with 96. The panel is 1,888 reviews. Wix also leads the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly) on meeting requirements, 8.6 to 8.3, and on product direction by the widest margin on the page, 8.2 to 7.5. Wix and classic Weebly sell to the same buyer. Of the 998,018 Wix companies with a known size, 78.74% employ 1 to 10 people, against 82.34% of the 73,155 classic Weebly companies with a known size.
What people do not like. Wix has two complaint topics on G2's Square Online (formerly Weebly) vs Wix comparison page, read October 3, 2026. Limited customization has 72 mentions and Expensive has 68. Quality of support is Wix's lowest score at 8.0, barely above Square Online's 7.9. So support is a weak point for both, not a reason to pick one.

Weebly
What people like about Weebly. G2 files Weebly under Square Online (formerly Weebly), so the listing covers both the classic builder and Square's store product. On 482 reviews it ties Wix at 4.2 stars and at 8.9 for ease of use. It edges Wix on ease of setup, 9.0 to 8.9, and ease of admin, 8.8 to 8.7.
What people do not like. Weebly's complaint topics on G2's Square Online (formerly Weebly) vs Wix comparison page, read October 3, 2026, are too thin to read. Limited customization and missing features have 2 mentions each. The scores say more. Product direction, at 7.5 for the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly) against Wix's 8.2, is the lowest G2 score on either side. Quality of support is 7.9.
G2 has not published a summary for Weebly; we do not paraphrase individual reviews.
G2 cannot separate Wix and Weebly on stars, 4.2 each. The detection data can. 211 classic Weebly sites moved to Wix in the 90 days to October 3, 2026, and 287 since tracking began on March 16, 2026. The 287 is 17 times what Weebly's own corpus-wide loss rate predicts. The 14 domains going the other way are under our bar for a migration. Only one review score leans with the flow: product direction, 8.2 for Wix against 7.5 for the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly). G2 cannot say why sites leave, either. On G2's Square Online (formerly Weebly) vs Wix comparison page, read October 3, 2026, the listing's topic counts top out at 4 mentions.
Sites move one way between Weebly and Wix. Classic Weebly sends 211 sites to Wix in a quarter. Only 17 have moved back since tracking began on March 16, 2026. That is under twice what Wix's own corpus-wide loss rate would produce, so we do not count it as a migration. This is what a platform looks like when its owner has a newer product. Square Online runs on Weebly's own code, and our Weebly profile records Weebly's help centre pointing new sites to it. The company data fits. Of the 25,652 classic Weebly companies with a known founding year, 8.18% were founded in the 2020s, against 30.71% on Wix in its profile of August 15, 2026. New businesses are not choosing Weebly.
A working Weebly site is not a problem, though. For a small business selling a few products, Weebly's Free and $13 Personal plans include a cart with unlimited items. On G2, the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly) also scores above Wix on ease of setup and ease of admin. Move when you need to grow. Wix sells bookings, more editors and a developer platform, and Weebly's pricing page lists none of them.
If you cite this page, note that Weebly's detection also fires on Square Online stores, so every count here leaves out domains ever detected running Square Online. Quote the 211 and the 287, not the reverse flow. The latest crawl still records some domains on both Wix and Weebly, but a live sample found most of them on one platform only. Read that figure as crawl lag, not as sites running both. Wix's paid prices are missing because its plans page serves a regional, tax-inclusive variant. Check them on wix.com before you compare.

Where this data comes from
October 2026 crawlOur detection dataFirst-party
The switching corridor, adoption curves, market shares and customer lists come from our own monthly crawl of 29.9M live business domains, detected across the full signal stack: HTTP headers, rendered DOM, JS globals, DNS, TLS and certificate transparency.
A switch is an observed change, not a survey answer: a domain dropped Wix on every host we track and now runs Weebly. Counts are domains, not accounts. Company attributes (industry, employee band, country) come from the enriched samples named in each caption (1,096,571 companies for Wix, 81,664 for Weebly).
Full detection methodology →The vendors' own pages
Pricing tables and the feature matrix are read from wix.com and weebly.com, entered by hand and checked cell by cell by an editor. Every table names its source URL and the date it was verified.
A verification older than 90 days withdraws the page from search until an editor re-checks it, so a stale price cannot outrank a current one.
G2's published numbers
Star ratings, review counts, the seven satisfaction scores with respondent counts, segment shares and topic mention counts, as read on Oct 3, 2026. Numbers only: no review prose is reproduced, and every figure links back to G2's own comparison.
G2's comparison of this pair →Only the first column is ours alone: no other tracker publishes who is switching between Wix and Weebly. Where the sources disagree, the page says so next to the numbers rather than averaging them.
How many sites switched from Weebly to Wix?
211 classic Weebly sites dropped Weebly for Wix in the 90 days to October 3, 2026. Since tracking began on March 16, 2026, 287 have moved, 17 times what Weebly's own corpus-wide loss rate predicts. In those 90 days, 14 domains went the other way, under our bar for a migration. Counts are domains, not companies or contracts. They leave out domains ever detected running Square Online, because Weebly's rule also matches it.
Which is more widely used, Wix or Weebly?
Wix, by about 13 times. Wix's profile of August 15, 2026 counts 1,298,903 detected domains, 8.72% of the CMS platforms category, where it ranks #2. Classic Weebly's profile of September 27, 2026 counts 98,301 domains, 0.60%, at #11. That Weebly figure excludes Square Online's 32,882 stores, which we count on their own page.
Is Weebly cheaper than Wix?
Weebly publishes US prices: a free plan, then Personal at $13 a month on annual billing or $16 month to month, Professional at $15 or $20, and Performance at $32 or $36. Wix also has a free plan and four paid tiers, but its plans page serves region-specific, tax-inclusive prices. Compare the USD figures on wix.com on the day you buy. We read both pages on October 3, 2026.
Why are Square Online stores left out of this page?
Square Online stores load the same files our Weebly rule detects. Square bought Weebly in 2018 and built Square Online on Weebly's technology. So the Weebly profile counts classic Weebly alone, and the switching counts here leave out every domain ever detected running Square Online. A store moving between Wix and Square Online does not show up as a Weebly switch.
Which is better for an online store, Wix or Weebly?
Weebly, for a small catalogue on a tight budget. Every Weebly plan, Free included, has a shopping cart with unlimited items, inventory management and coupons. PayPal, item reviews and abandoned cart emails need Performance, at $32 a month on annual billing. If the store will grow, pick Wix, where payments and basic eCommerce start on Core, standard eCommerce on Business and advanced eCommerce on Business Elite.
Does anyone use Weebly anymore?
Yes, but few new businesses do. Our September 2026 crawl finds 98,301 classic Weebly sites, and we match 81,664 live sites to a named company. Of the 25,652 of those companies with a known founding year, 8.18% were founded in the 2020s, against 30.71% on Wix in its profile of August 15, 2026. Weebly is also losing sites, 211 of them to Wix in the 90 days to October 3, 2026.
Is Weebly being phased out?
Not everywhere, but its owner has a successor. Our Weebly profile records that Weebly's help centre points new sites to Square Online. It also records that Weebly announced in June 2026 it is winding down in 67 countries, where sites were scheduled to be unpublished on September 27, 2026. On October 3, 2026, weebly.com still sold four plans.
What is the downside of Wix?
Wix's two complaint topics on G2's Square Online (formerly Weebly) vs Wix comparison page, read October 3, 2026, are limited customization, with 72 mentions, and Expensive, with 68. Quality of support is Wix's lowest G2 score, at 8.0. On Wix's plans page, payments, eCommerce and scheduling start on Core, and prices are shown by region rather than in fixed US dollars.
How much does Weebly cost per month?
Weebly's pricing page, read October 3, 2026, lists Free at $0, Personal at $13 a month on annual billing or $16 month to month, Professional at $15 or $20, and Performance at $32 or $36. A custom domain needs Personal. A free domain and no Square ads need Professional.
What are the disadvantages of using Weebly?
Square ads stay on Free and Personal Weebly sites. Unlimited storage and a free domain start at Professional, and PayPal payments, item reviews and abandoned cart emails are Performance-only. On G2, the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly) scores 7.5 for product direction, its lowest G2 score, and 7.9 for quality of support. Our Weebly profile also records Weebly's help centre pointing new sites to Square Online.
Is Weebly still a good website builder?
For a simple site, yes. G2 rates the listing Square Online (formerly Weebly) 4.2 stars, the same as Wix, and 9.0 for ease of setup. For a new business, the signs point away from Weebly. 211 classic Weebly sites moved to Wix in the 90 days to October 3, 2026, and Weebly's owner points new sites to Square Online.
