Terrible User Experience -- Too Many Bugs
I chose to use Weebly because it's integrated with Square, my store's POS.
My user experience has been mostly negative because of the number of bugs and things just NOT working when I expect them to. For example:
1) No transparency where the e-mails collected from a mailing list pop-up are stored. I have an existing email list that I host via different platforms (in my case, Google sheets); but, I must manually transfer the emails I collect through my Weebly store to the Google sheet. --Adding a feature to control where those emails end up being stored would be great.
2) Along with the emails... The website editor interface is awful. It is slow and it randomly decides when to save progress. I made a promotional pop-up to collect emails FOUR TIMES because I was unsure if it actually worked. There was no verification of a successful pop-up after perssing "close" or whatever the button is. Now, I have FOUR of the SAME POP-UPS that assault the customer as they view the website. THEY HAVE TO PRESS "X" FOUR TIMES and there is no way for me to fix this issue--because on the website editor I apparently don't have a promotional pop-up configured?
3) EVERYTHING is slow. My intuitive experience with my Square POS led me to believe that Weebly might be the same, in terms of ease of use. I was wrong. I find myself having to repeat actions to be sure that they've actually worked (even after I hit "save") and then when they inevitably don't, I have to go back and fix them. It is becoming a burden to me. Simple actions like configuring ONE promotional pop-up or even adding featured items(!!!) should not take HOURS because of re-doing work!
Please fix these issues!

Hi @27LB Thanks for your feedback. It's very useful for our teams and engineers to see these types of candid remarks about a new product. Your emails are stored under the Marketing>Contacts>Mailing Lists. I can see you did create quite a few popups, but I only see one that is currently active. You can verify this under the Popups link on the Website tab. When I visit your site I only see one popup box. Does this mean you were able to sort out the issue already?
