Why are website builders SaaS?
Not all website builders are SaaS.
“SaaS” (Software as a Service) is a business model where software is accessed through a subscription instead of a one-time purchase. In most SaaS website builders, your website is also hosted on the provider’s servers and runs only while your subscription is active.
But SaaS is not a technical requirement for building websites - it is a business model choice. Some platforms are open-source, others are self-hosted, and some, like UltimateWB, provide

If you already know WordPress, it’s natural to wonder whether Shopify will feel easier, harder, or just different. The short answer is: Shopify may feel easier at first, but more limiting over time - especially if you’re used to WordPress flexibility. There are other ways to reduce the maintenance requirements of a WordPress website, and in general just be easier, without reducing flexibility and customization - like using UltimateWB.
Here’s a detailed comparison.

It is good to have a website/mobile-friendly website for your business- best is to have a responsive website that reformats for the user based on what device size they are using, i.e. a computer, tablet, or smartphone. Then you just have to build one website and update one website. It doesn’t seem like an app that a user would install would be necessary. I don’t think users would expect to have to install an app to get a quote for

Which website builders have you tried? I think what makes a website builder the most difficult is when the features aren’t built-in and you have to find/install third-party plugins and extensions to build the type of website you want. Also, when a website builder isn’t what you need out-of-the-box, it makes it harder to manage your website. Maybe you just haven’t tried the right website builder for what you want to build. You can build any type of website with

Joomla is an open source platform like WordPress. You can add extensions to it to get the features you want for your website. If you choose to use it, make sure to keep it upgraded for security, and make backups as sometimes it can break your website functionalities due to incompatibilities. Like in WordPress, you don’t want your website to have too many extensions installed as they can make your website run a lot slower, and use a lot of
