MizaniOne Web & App Vs Wix

We provide a wide range of professional services to meet your needs. We promise to provide every service with a smile, and to your highest level of satisfaction.

What workflows exist for client content review and approval?

MizaniOne's Site Comments feature enables your team members and clients to have a real-time dialogue as you build websites. Each comment is linked to a specific site element, and will trigger a notification via email for faster review and approval. That way, you can handle all communication from one convenient location - the website being built.

Wix sites support a "Get Feedback" mechanism that allows a designer to share a link to the site with a client for feedback. Comments can be left in the Get Feedback interface, through which the client can leave virtual "sticky notes" for the designer. After reviewing the feedback, the designer can mark each bit of feedback as "resolved".

Site portability: Can you export site code and content

Once built, any MizaniOne site can be exported and downloaded at any time. This can be done on-demand using the built-in Duda site export feature. Every site export contains a zip file with the editor preview HTML, CSS and images of the site in a format that can be installed on your external web server.

According to Wix's support page, "Your Wix site and all of its content is hosted exclusively on Wix's servers, and cannot be exported elsewhere."

This means that once you are on Wix, you are locked into that platform.

SEO: Which website builder handles SEO better?

The MizaniOne platform is designed and built to be aligned with Google's recommended practices for speed, security, and SEO. This includes fast content rendering for higher Google Lighthouse test scores, intuitive access to on-page SEO settings such as keywords and descriptions, automatic SSL encryption and sitemap generation for every MizaniOne-built site.

In recent years, Wix has added basic on-page SEO capabilities for modifying meta tags, setting canonical URLs, and other basic SEO features.

WORKING TOGETHER

Access to code: How deeply can you get into the underlying HTML, CSS, JavaScript?

MizaniOne's Developer Mode gives you access to view, edit and change your website's HTML, CSS and JavaScript for advanced customization when desired.

Standard Wix sites do not allow designer or developer access to the underlying code that drives the Wix site. As such, agencies are not able to modify or optimize fundamental code elements like CSS or JavaScript on standard Wix websites. Wix has recently added a more detailed development environment called Corvid that does make some developer-level features available.

Who makes translating your site easy and efficient?

Duda understands the importance of incorporating multi-language features into your clients’ websites and online stores. The translation feature uses Google Translate as a base, from which the content can be further adjusted inside Duda’s editor.

While it is possible to create a multilingual site in Squarespace, the process is much more manual and much less intuitive. Users will have to create a homepage linking each visitor to the version of the website in their preferred language then build multi-language pages and menus.

Which website builder is best for local businesses?

LOCAL SEARCH OPTIMIZATION

MizaniOne offers app integrations and widgets that are hyper-relevant and useful to local businesses. With the Uberall and Neustar Localeze apps, businesses can ensure their data remains consistent and up-to-date (across multiple online locations), maintain reputation management, and post directly to Google and Facebook. Pre-built widgets for Business Hours, Yelp Reviews, Yext, Open Table Reservations, Map, and Multi-Location Map can quickly be added to any template along with your agency’s custom-developed widgets such as IDX, mortgage calculator and more.

Squarespace and Wix does not have local listings software integration within their platform and you will have to use plugins for added functionality.

Who offers easy configuration of complex web design features?

MizaniOne supports a large library of

SMB-friendly widgets including Click to Call, Multi Location Map, Restaurant Menu, Yelp Reviews, Yext Knowledge Tags and more. You can also build custom widgets to extend out-of-the-box functionality and use MizaniOne's Dynamic Pages feature to automatically build web pages from collections of data.

Squarespace and Wix offers basic block configuration through the editor, but it is not possible to select more advanced, business-friendly block configurations. Custom blocks and dynamic pages may be created in Squarespace, but more developer work (and time) is required to implement these features.
