How to read the Emotional Footprint
The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

What differentiates Squarespace from other similar products?
Squarespace has many simple templates that can be used and customized based on your industry. It also allows you to be more personable through things like including social medias and blog posts, thus enhancing your portfolio.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I really love the construction of the site. It’s like everything you like need, is right there in nice sections. Unlike other sites, where you have to find what you want through multiple pages and back links that could be broke and you don’t know; everything need is there. The only thing you need to know is what you want to fix. Also it doesn’t take years of programming or a master’s degree to figure out how to edit and design your pages, the only thing you need is the idea. Squarespace takes care of everything else for you!
What do you dislike most about this product?
I know everyone needs to buy the next best plan, and that’s how companies stay in business. I hate that they don’t have a scheduling feature that comes with the paid, business pro plans. I feel there needs to be something, even if it’s just to have one calendar; there needs to be one calendar or a scheduler for that plan. Some people can’t afford the bigger plans, and they need to do business too. But the product itself is great!
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It’s easy to use, no coding necessary. The website templates are simple and very customizable, there’s no lag in any section of the site and it comes fully loaded with everything you need!
Pros
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Fair
- Helps Innovate
