Create a Website for Free | Online Website Builder - Umi.ru

Hello everyone! I want to share my opinion about the constructor. Before I found it, I spent a lot of time searching for the right engine for my online store. In the end, I came across UMI. At first, I was a bit annoyed by the constant prompts to switch to the full version instead of the free one, but over time, this flow became less intrusive, and now everything is calm. You can add any number of products, everything works smoothly and is intuitive. It takes only 2-3 minutes to list one item, even with uploading photos, writing descriptions, choosing sizes, and categories, etc. Overall, at this stage, I am completely satisfied with the service. In the future, I plan to use other features as well. It has everything you need to launch advertising campaigns and other promotional processes directly from the admin panel. The user-friendly interface and step-by-step instructions were very helpful; I already posted my first ad on Yandex, which took me less than 10 minutes. So the service is definitely worth attention.

The ball constructor is decent, but it's quite difficult to highlight anything unique. There are standard templates, regular features, and advanced functionality is offered for an additional fee. This is typical for most online website builders. Among the advantages of Umi, I would mention the ease of learning, a convenient control panel, and the option to permanently purchase the site. This is definitely suitable for those who plan to use this platform for a long time. As for the prices, the cost for the services offered in the plans remains quite reasonable. So, if you like everything about Umi but want more, feel free to choose the right plan. Your money won't be wasted, that's for sure. I personally use the "Landing" plan and haven't encountered any disappointments so far. My rating is 5.

The developers themselves note that the system is more intended for small online stores and other projects. It won't be able to serve large online stores. However, for starting a business, this is quite an acceptable option; it's just better to choose a paid plan right away, as it's unlikely to achieve anything worthwhile on the free version. The free version is heavily limited in functionality, and it's impossible to fully explore all the advantages and disadvantages. The prices are moderate, so I immediately picked a suitable plan. The main advantage of the builder is its collaboration with 1C, which allows for synchronizing the store with accounting without the need to upload additional software and pay for programs, which is very convenient. This really sets the builder apart from its counterparts. The designs are quite ordinary, but the landing page templates look very professional. The admin panel resembles familiar Wordpress and Opencart, and, to be honest, I didn't notice any significant difference, except for the design. The search engine optimization of the finished project is top-notch, with many integrated solutions for tracking visits, orders, clicks, and more. The statistics are comprehensive, even for incomplete orders. At the moment, this is the best domestic builder for creating online stores, although this is, of course, a subjective opinion.

Not the most well-known, but a quite worthy website builder. It has a good collection of templates for various types of websites. So far, I have no problems with editing and filling my test project. I think I will later move my small shop here, as the tools should be sufficient. Overall, the service offers similar functions to other similar platforms. Personally, I find it hard to highlight anything unique. As with everything, with an increase in the tariff level, new opportunities open up for the user. Naturally, the most extensive functionality is available on the plan for online stores. If you like their templates and find the prices reasonable, you can confidently continue working with them. I will likely do just that, as I mentioned before. For now, I am completely satisfied.

The first website builder I tried was UMI. I needed to quickly create a couple of pages for advertising on Direct. The prices for freelance work to create even a one-page site turned out to be too high. So, I decided to use UMI. Overall, my impressions are positive. It's convenient that I bought and linked the domain directly through the system. I especially liked that the developers took care of automatic search engine optimization, and the site started getting indexed very quickly. If more than 10,000 sites are using this platform, it must be really good. Now that the business has started to bring in profit, I plan to purchase the full version instead of the free one. In my opinion, it's the most reliable and stable management system. During all this time, there was only one small issue when updating from an old version to a new one — a few modules disappeared, but customer support responded quickly and helped. This is the perfect choice for beginners who don't understand html/css and other similar things.

I use UMI.ru for my online store. I was really attracted by the fact that the design and content can be changed with just a few clicks. I tried several website builders, but none of them worked for me. This service pleased me with the absence of offers to purchase the full version. Of course, there is a downside in that you can't edit the code, as you can with free templates, for example, on Blogger. However, the interface and intuitive site management impressed me. It takes me no more than three minutes to list a single product. I had some issues with promotion and advertising, but I liked that I didn't have to delve into the intricacies of SEO or deal with Yandex.Direct — everything is set up very conveniently. All questions are resolved through the site's admin panel. Step-by-step instructions also helped, and within 10 minutes, I had my first ad on Yandex. There are more pros than cons, but it's worth noting another drawback. Some features, like on many other sites, are paid. I wanted to connect my online store orders with 1C Accounting, but I found out that I need to pay for that. However, free hosting options fall significantly short in this regard. The service's capabilities are vast, and it all depends on your imagination.

A year ago, I decided to try this platform. Currently, I am using the paid "Company Website" package for 99 rubles a month. In the template library, you can find quite good options, but to stand out, some changes are still required. After working on it a bit, I was able to make my website different from others using the same template. The editing process turned out to be quite simple. I have encountered builders where it was much more complicated to figure things out. The functionality of my package suits me well. I had no issues with domain binding. Overall, as long as my website is on Umi, I don't see any reason to change anything. However, I am constantly keeping an eye on new companies in this field, but so far I haven't found anything that could interest me for a move.

The builder is quite simple, and that's exactly what attracted me to it. There are plenty of templates for the website, and they are conveniently sorted into thematic categories, which makes choosing much easier. I am also satisfied with the quality of the templates: they look appealing and are clearly made by professionals. The platform is very easy to learn. It took me about a month and a half to study almost all aspects. I am happy with the prices for the paid plans, as they correspond to the benefits these plans offer. There is a special plan for online stores, which I purchased permanently for 26,000 rubles. If you take the development of your business seriously, this is a very small amount. The functionality fully meets what any marketplace should have.

For the past six months, I have been creating all my websites exclusively on UMI. It doesn't differ much from others; I just got the hang of it and can now create websites faster. The templates and paid plans here are similar to those of competitors. Learning website building on this platform turned out to be not that difficult. The set of layouts is quite good - there is room for creativity. However, each layout requires some effort before it can be taken seriously. The service provides decent uptime for websites. UMI is suitable for both beginners who are just starting to choose a builder and those who already have experience. The pros include the ability to purchase a domain and automatic promotion. I find the prices for paid plans reasonable, so if everything continues to satisfy me, I will switch to one of them. My rating for this service is exclusively positive.

I used this builder to create my company's website. I had no knowledge in this area. The management chose this option because it turned out to be cheaper (creating a full-fledged website with programmers costs from 20 thousand, and here, even with a paid subscription, it cost about 13). It was not difficult to understand how the builder works, and I mastered it enough to create almost everything I wanted from templates. The only small drawback is that fine-tuning is not possible, even if you know the code; you have to stick to the functions of the builder itself. With the paid subscription, I was able to choose the website name, set up online applications, get an email address with the website name, create a feedback form, and much more. In the free version, as I understood, this is not available, so regular users are left to create only simple blogs. The builder is really good, and for a small price, even a beginner can create a great website in a couple of days.
