GBWorst site builder I've ever used. As someone who specialises in creating cost-efficient websites for business owners, I can't and wouldn't recommend Duda to anyone. The countless problems with Duda make my job extremely difficult due to the amount of time I have to spend troubleshooting the most idiotic hurdles they place at every single corner. I've unfortunately been using Duda for close on 3 years now (not by choice) and my sanity has plummeted due to this. I am constantly finding myself having to find ways to work around the downfalls of Duda which consistently turns a 1 week project into a 1 month (or more) project. Even the most basic features are clunky and inefficient and instead of fixing them, Duda seems determined to add more unnecessary features that are inevitably clunky and inefficient. To add insult to injury, when they DO finally try to improve the basic features they end up making them even worse. The latest mind-boggling change they've made is that when you try to move a widget down your page (text box, button etc) instead of simply moving the widget it will try to minimise the size of the widget. Why?! Why even change it? This was about the only thing that worked consistently and is the most basic function and with one change they've made it unuseable. Optimisation is an unknown concept on this platform. For example, you have three versions of any individual site; desktop, tablet, and mobile. However, while this sounds helpful, not one section/widget/text box will automatically resize for tablet which means you then need to go through every single section of your desktop site, duplicate everything and hide the duplicated sections on the desktop site before then going through everything AGAIN to resize and optimise for tablet. While the mobile version will convert certain widgets from desktop it does so in such an inefficient manner that for 9 out of 10 sections you will have to repeat the same process that you did for the tablet version. I have been pushing for our company to move to another platform since I started working here nearly 3 years ago but unfortunately, it has become almost impossible with the amount of websites we have running through Duda at this point. I would need to abandon all responsibilities and focus every bit of my time to be able to transfer everything over to another platform properly which I simply can't afford to do. For anyone looking to create a website or any agency looking for the best platform, avoid Duda at all costs. No matter what it is that's attracting you, I can promise you with no doubt in my mind that it will NOT be worth the trouble this platform will cause you in the long run. Now speaking to Duda directly. You have ridiculously lazy and incompetent development. How you can continuously get things so wrong and blatantly ignore the obvious downfalls in your platform tells me you're either not capable of making improvements or simply don't care. There is absolutely no merit in trying to claim ignorance, I have read other reviews, and I have many, many, many times spoken to your team to make improvements and if anything it just gets worse.

SIDuda has no second factor… Duda has no second factor authentication, which is a shame from a security point of view because all professionnal tools provide this security feature. Without second factor authentication, the risk of a Website built with Duda is very high and shouldn't be considered. Unfortunately another more secure Website creation platform should be used if you don't want to be hacked.

GBThrilled with DUDA! I know very little about website development, but thanks to Duda and their FANTASTIC help desk team I have been able to create a beautiful site that is also functional. I had pretty sites with other software but could never get them to work or had zero to terrible customer service when I had an issue. Duda is making my business profitable again! And Jairo at Customer Support is just FABULOUS! When it was urgent he just went into my site and quickly fixed it. Then later explained what I had done wrong.

BRGood only for simple websites. Good only for simple websites. You need a simple website? Its a really good tool, But if you need a little bit more complex website, it doesnt work. They dont have simple tools, and essencials, like a search tool. You can only have access to it if you pay a 3 part tool. Also, the blog function have a lot to get better. They dont have things like "categories".

BEDuda is a joke! Duda is a joke. Name a website builder that doesn't support 2FA/MFA for its paying customers? I'll tell you, it's DUDA. Their website builder is always lagging, has bad performance overall, it doesn't work well with other plugins, and their widgets are completely outdated. I would not recommend it!
