If You Are a Musician or Know Someone Who Is, It's Time to Talk About Bandzoogle!
My overall experience has been fabulous. I like the way my website works, I understand how to edit it, and I LOVE the different features that have been brought together under one 'roof', so to speak.
PROSThe consolidation of features into one place which is how the company and concept started, as I understand it.
CONSThe availability of templates would be the biggest con, and there aren't that many. Looking at the websites of colleagues, it is apparent that some other hosting services are a bit more forward-thinking in this area.
Reason for choosing Bandzoogle
I had used GoDaddy for a different business I had years ago. It was relatively easy to use. But after I started a free trial of Bandzoogle, I quickly realized that it had everything that I needed to get up and running quickly with my ideas, and this is especially true in the niche that I am in (audio production, mixing, and mastering).

PROSThe most important feature is the integration from one site to another - very easy no hastles, walk through is a breeze.

PROSStriking impression upon first look. To use an old hippie phrase, my website has a cool vibe thanks to Bandzoogle.
CONSNavigating is not exactly easy for me. I’m only speaking for myself. I find it difficult to size down and move photos/pics.

Bandzoogle is awesome!
I absolutely love Bandzoogle!
PROSThe customer service is 10/10! Site-building is super easy with their templates and whenever I was stuck, the support team were incredibly responsive, positive, and helpful! I also liked the analytics: easy to read.
CONSIt’s been a while but from what I can remember, I remember feeling frustrated that I couldn’t always drag and drop a block exactly where I wanted on the page (was it from a different page?). I had to drag it to the desired page and then manually “move it down” one block at a time to the desired position. Also, I’ve seen brilliant landing pages designed through Wix and wondered if there was a way in Bandzoogle to make mine look just as well laid out. Not sure if it is just lack of design skills on my part but it might be nice to have landing page templates offered in Bandzoogle. I also would like to see SEO more customizable for each page.
Reasons for switching to Bandzoogle
Ability to stream music, integration with PayPal.

Bandzoogle Website Builder
The process to build and update a website is pretty intuitive, even for someone like me who is less than tech savvy. There are many options to choose from so it is easy to make a site that isn't cookie-cutter like. Bandzoogle has paid attention to the specific needs of musicians including sales of merchandise, tickets to shows, recordings etc. Plus it is possible to build an audience and interact with your audience. The customer support has always been prompt and helpful.
CONSThere probably are some things, but since I don't use everything feature that is offered to the user by Bandzoogle. In short, I haven't run across something I wanted from my website that wasn't already available.

From a WordPress user
Overall, I give it an 8/10. If they add the search function it would be 9.5/10. If they increase speed it would be 10/10.
PROSIt really is a fantastic website builder. While it's limited in how deep you can customize, it makes up with nice built in plug-ins and themes that can be adjust quickly. Another positive note is that you can switch themes without losing your content because it's a structured layout. Meaning it will readjust your content to fit the new theme style. Not flawless, but pretty sweet. Also the price is pretty good, especially for cdbaby users who get a discount.
CONSMy biggest complaint is with the blog section. There has to be a search function or it's just a giant useless thread of a mess. Second would be the speed. Using the wrong font could completely jam up loading speeds because of what they have running in the background. Problem is you can't access the back end to clean up what I assume is java script problems.

Bandzoogle Delivers
My experience with Bandzoogle has been both positive and profitable. I have the pro account, and it's affordable enough that it doesn't cut into my bottom line in any noticeable way.
PROSI use Bandzoogle's web hosting platform and software for my online record store. They provide every tool I need to showcase, promote, and sell soundtrack albums. It's like having my own personal Apple Music. It takes a minute to understand how to use their website building tools, but the templates and customization features they provide are well designed and accessible. Customer support is the best I've found with ANY technology company. And you need a good tech support team when you are first building out your site and learning the tools. 10/10
CONSI"m an artist at heart, so I love the ability to customize. Bandzoogle provides plenty of customization features, but I would love having just a few more.
Reasons for switching to Bandzoogle
Bandzoogle gave me the exact tools I needed for showcasing, promoting, and selling music online.

Thank you for your amazing review! We're so glad you're loving the e-commerce tools and that you've expanded your options to sell music directly to your fans.

Wholly Cats Swing Club
It has been great to have a central platform where venues, bookers, and media can access information, photos and videos and other news about the band. Much more effective than trying to do the same with social media
PROSIt is tailored to the features that an independent music artist needs and has done a lot to make our band look very professional and serious about our music.
CONSThe email feature and administration is a little difficult to find and keep on top of unless you check it regularly. Would nice to be able to send incoming emails to multiple email clients.

Great all around tool for musicians
I love how much easier it is to manage our site and online needs as a band in ONE tool instead of 50 different one. Love this product.
PROSWhile you might be able to find other tools that do one part of the system a little better, Bandzoogle has a pretty solid set of tools all in one place. It is the easiest way for us to manage our website with most features we need for all aspects of our band.
CONSThere are a few tools I'd like to see have a few more configuration options, but overall what you get is great and acceptable. The value of the whole system far surpasses nitpicking on any one part of it.
Reason for choosing Bandzoogle
All the tools in one system makes managing everything so much easier. The integrations to other systems really helps here as well.

Fully featured with a good variety of look and feel templates and the ability to customise. Honestly the most difficult thing I found with Bandzoogle is that for everything I wanted to do, I assumed it would be less simple than it is. When I contacted support they were fast, friendly and succinctly helpful and I usually found that the answer was devilishly simple. Great people, great product.

Slick and easy web design with capacity to sell merchandise and downloads
We wanted to have access to e-sales, so downloading of music files was the primary criteria, which Bandzoogle offers at the reasonable price. We were able to set up a nice web site and store that also included players and some space for commentary and photos. It is a convenient package compared to other solutions we had tried.
CONSThe only complaint I had in setting up the Bandzoogle site was that the menus sometimes seemed to loop me back instead of saving and progressing on - this showed my inexperience with automated design, and reminded me why I always hated the term "intuitive" in computer usage. However, it also gave the Bandzoogle tech support people a chance to shine.
