Looking into open source website builders like WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal?  Being open source, they are free - but unless you know web programming most of the time you will find you will have to pay for a web designer, web developer, or even web programmer to create your website the way you want it.  To make your website have the features you want you will have to download and integrate third party plugins - which you may have to pay extra for - rather than use built-in apps.  This can threaten your website security, and also make upgrading your website software harder - perhaps even break some of your website functionalities due to necessary software upgrades as the plugins weren't designed together.
WordPress is great as a blogging tool to integrate into your website - it is in fact the platform used for the blogging app in Ultimate Web Builder software. But with a lot of plugins used to make WordPress as the engine for your entire website, it can increase your webpage load time greatly, while still not offering the flexibility that Ultimate Web Builder software does.
Quick Points:
Open Source, WordPress, Joomla, Drupal - Customizations require coding experience, added functionalities/apps require third party plugins that can affect your website security, extra cost, and make upgrading your website harder

Reviews Comparing UltimateWB to Other Website Builders

The software is working great, I am very happy with it. I already like it more than Dreamweaver and it totally blows Weebly out of the water.
 

Tony C. | Social Networking Website

The software is really nice. It's way more convenient than Dreamweaver for making a full site. It also makes it really easy for slideshows. It's a lot easier to manage things.
 

Burlingame Senior Home | Company Website

I got used to using XSite Pro but can see that your software is in a different league with many more features!

 

Dave B. | Business Websites

I have never written a review or provided a testimonial for many reasons. Maybe the main reason is because I just don’t feel passionate about a company or product either positively or negatively. Most stuff is just meh…neutral.

Ultimatewb on the other hand is a fantastic company. The product and service is exceptional. Their service is attentive, prompt, caring and considerate, and I feel as if I am part of their family. The product is very comprehensive, flexible (multiple possibilities), fluid, and fresh (offers many things other companies don't). Even still, they add features without fees and help you utilize it (If you can dream it, you can find a way to do it on their website. And if you can’t figure it out, they will help or add that feature.). There is no nickeling and diming, and stuffing product down your throat and two faced service like a company that loves to advertise at Superbowls.

Most importantly, when I represent my product/ service on a website out there, and it carries the Powered by Ultimatewb, I have to be certain that Ultimatewb represents my company as well. Ultimatewb reflects the responsibility, compassion, connectivity, humanity, service and integrity that I hope to see in my company.

 

Pranav J. | Social Networking Website

In some years now dealing with developers, we have found that your responses are very prompt and agreeable and is so far the best relationship we experienced in terms of support.
