Who should choose Solo
You want AI to generate your site structure and copy from a business description, not a blank template. You need a custom domain connected on a free plan to test before paying. You are building primarily a service or content site, not a retail store.
Who should choose Weebly
You already use Square for in-person payments and want your online store synced to the same inventory and POS system. Weebly's Square integration is its clearest advantage -- a coffee shop, boutique, or market vendor that rings up sales in-store and also sells online benefits from one inventory layer. Weebly's simpler editor is also well-suited to users who find other builders overly complex.
