Creating a website on Weebly is very easy and simple. All you need to do is use your mouse to drag and drop images, graphics, slideshows, products, etc. without the need to use any code. The easy-to-use interface makes it an ideal choice for the newbie. But this does not mean Weebly is a super perfect website builder. There are many disadvantages.
Too simplistic design: Weebly websites look too simple. Weebly websites are not as good as Wix websites or even Squarespace websites. That’s because Weebly’s templates don’t offer you variety. There are limited templates available, and you have a lot of choices. For example, you don’t get single-page scrolling design, parallax (which is very popular these days), page transitions (such as sliding effects), /background video players, etc. Weebly keeps everything too simple, so you might have to go to other website builders if you want advanced options and features.
Limited Customization Options: Weebly offers limited customization options, there is nothing to explore as with other website builders or WordPress. You can only do simple things like changing colors, changing fonts, etc. You can change the background color, menu color, adjust content width, etc. If you want to do more than that you will have to modify templates codes, which is possible only when you have programming skills.
