History
Known issues
- Additional Expenses:
- Customers have to pay for integrations that are typically offered for free on other platforms, and you’ll have to pay for web design and web hosting. You’ll also probably have to hire a developer.
- Not For The Technologically Illiterate:
- If you dive in with little understanding of code, you’re going to have a rough time.
