WordPress offers many different directions

What differentiates WordPress.com from other similar products?
WordPress offers I believe one of the most extensive libraries of templates for those 1 person organizations up to SMEs. The ease of use of the product is one of the go-to factors for so many companies using this solution. Given its mass appeal across many different industries as well as areas that are specific to your industry. WordPress gives you the ability to start with a blank canvas or choose from one of the million-plus templates available to end users. The only thing that could slow down your progress, regarding using a pre-defined template, is the sheer number that is available for free as well as purchase.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The number of available add-ons to the WordPress applications, once again covering all areas and interests. Again, I will recommend purchasing from a reputable WordPress vendor. This will give you the ability to obtain updates to your WordPress solution, that have been vetted with your current site. You can create a website and have it up and running in a few hours.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I have no dislikes with regard to the product. I believe that potential users of WordPress, have to do their homework with regard to what direction they are looking to head into with WordPress. The more research you do, the more prepared you will be moving forward. Always look at what you are trying to achieve with WordPress, but also look into the future.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Do your homework, don't pick a template that looks great and is really set up for the type of business you have or are looking to open up. I have seen to many times and have heard of these issues, where the template that they picked, will not really place nicely as a B2B site. It will require a lot of extra work and $$$ to get it where you need it to be. Most important I would recommend working with a WordPress designer and WordPress developer. The designer will give you the look and feel that you want, and the developer will make sure everything is working correct.
Pros
- Efficient Service
- Client Friendly Policies
- Acts with Integrity
- Helps Innovate
Cons
- Security Frustrates
