Our take
The pragmatic, low-friction way to get a site live, and that ease is genuinely the reason to consider it. But be clear about the trade-off relative to others in this category: it’s a hosted commercial platform, the free tier carries the company’s branding and limits, and you’re operating inside their walls rather than self-hosting. Fine if convenience and reach outweigh control for you. If owning your stack and data is the goal, a self-hosted option serves that better.
