What differentiates WordPress.com from other similar products?

I don't know about the similar product but yeah Wordpress is the best tool for website creation .It is useful for people who have less knowledge in coding and best thing is it is easy to implement .We can easily create websites using this tool .Lots of features are available . We can add plugins ,themes . We can easily sell and add products on the site.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Best thing about WordPress is that it is extremely user friendly and beginner friendly. You don't need to have any programming language skills to make basic websites in this. Themes are offered for almost all kinds of websites. Many plugin integrations also make life easy for a website developer. It being free for use is like cherry on top.

Although there is nothing much that I can point out as something that I dislike about wordpress, some plugin integration may give problems. They give issues sometimes while uploading.

If you're looking to get started quickly, WordPress is the tool for you! It was so easy to learn and navigate especially for someone brand new to the tool! It's very intuitive as well and you don't need the equivalent of a CS degree to get great, professional results.
