- Custom domain support with third-party registrar integration
Cons
- Primarily designed for single-page sites, limiting complex multi-page website needs
- Feature details per pricing tier are not clearly documented on the pricing page
- Free plan sites use a strikingly.com subdomain, which looks less professional
- E-commerce functionality (Simple Store) is basic compared to dedicated platforms
Appy Pie
Pros
- Converts existing websites (WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace) into native mobile apps automatically
- Enterprise-grade compliance certifications including ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and HIPAA
- 7-day free trial with no credit card required, allowing real device testing before committing
- Live sync keeps app content updated automatically when the website changes
- Publishes directly to both Google Play and Apple App Store
Cons
