> 
> **Pros**: For our Hotel Environment, we took the trial for Sparkle which makes life easy with its capability of designing, interacting, and keeping the audience engaged with the vibrance. The use of AI makes it easy to start the workflow without hesitation and a great aid of co-pilot improves the stability of work and performance.
> 
> **Cons**: The Trial version/Free version is very limited but it should enhance additional features for people to feel comfortable and adapt. There is not much information about the security architecture for Sparkle which should be made more clear.
> 
> Overall I found it way better than working with Wordpress or other platforms. It is very convenient and easy to adapt. Less technical support is needed for Sparkle.

### "The Sparkle web design app makes it easy for creative visual thinkers to create\!" — 5.0/5

> **Glenn** | *7 April 2023* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As a designer, (and Adobe Creative Suite Instructor) I was glad to forget just about everything I knew about HTML and CSS. The Sparkle Web Design App and its familiar UI makes it easy for creative visual thinkers to create. If you've ever designed using Apple's Pages or Keynote, Sparkle Web Design App is for you\!
> 
> **Cons**: If I had a PC, I'd probably be sad this app is only available for Macs.
> 
> This app let's me design while relying on \[sensitive content hidden\] and his programming team to optimize, code and publish - all behind the scenes. Not to mention providing amazing customer service, like updated software implementations for new California and GDPR Privacy Policy compliance, or optimized SEO solutions, as well as personally answering user questions\!
