Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Wix for my personal design portfolio. My use of Wix has nothing to do with the company I work for. I use it as a display of the work I did in college and now heading into my professional career. I chose Wix because of its ability to customize and create a unique website while maintaining a fairly easy user interface.

Pros

For not having any coding/website building knowledge the site is easy to maneuver and understand what steps need to be taken to create your personal site.
Wix provides a set templates to get you started but also gives you the option to customize beyond their templates to make your site stand out as much as you want it to.
It can hold a lot of files and photos. I use the site as a personal project portfolio, so I'm used to uploading some large files and so far I've had no problem with loading them onto the site.

Cons

I did struggle several times with image quality once I uploaded my photos. Sometimes certain things would get a little blurry/fuzzy when the file originally wasn't like that.
Like I mentioned before, I have a lot of larger files on my site. Its easy to upload them, but sometimes it takes a while for them to load on the actual site which is a point of frustration when trying to present my portfolio.
I wish there was more flexibility with text and images. Some layouts only allow a short line of texts while others allow more to be visible on the site. If there could be a standard among all layouts that would create a lot less back tracking.

Likelihood to Recommend

I think it truly depends on what the user is looking to use the site for. I think Wix works well for a portfolio display/photography but I see it struggling to be used as a personal business site to sell a service or a product.
