Features
Clear interface
Zyro offers its users a smooth and clean interface, as well as simple tools for customizing and launching websites and online stores. Even when you first open the platform, it’s clear that everything is presented in a clean, minimalist sense. Zyro’s interface is very easy to use and very intuitive. It’s easy to create an account. It’s simple to navigate the site and find models to view before deciding to purchase Zyro. We can guarantee that even if it is your first time using a website builder, you will never be lost.
Drag-and-drop editor
Zyro also claims that you can build your own e-commerce store in less than an hour, which is very true using the drag and drop builder is simple and straightforward. There is no need to have any coding or design skills as the builder will do all the hard work for you. Drag and drop editors will allow you to drag and drop one of the many menu items from your builder onto the site.
Most of the time, they show you a preview of what that element will look like on the live version of your website. The drag-and-drop editor is one of the most frequently mentioned highlights in website builder reviews (whether Zyro reviews or otherwise).
A limited but quality choice of models
You have a number of pre-made templates that can be used for almost any type of project you may work on. Zyro provides at least 120 templates divided into a few categories, which are e-commerce, services, photography, restaurant, portfolio, resume, events, landing page and blog. When comparing this number to other premium manufacturers, it’s clear that there is still room for improvement. But that shouldn’t be a problem because Zyro is always adding more models to catch up with the competition and if you need a simple solution, there should be a model that resonates with your business among all these 120 choices.
Tools powered by artificial intelligence (AI)
Zyro offers AI-powered tools for everything from generating content to highlighting the most interesting parts of your website. These are AI Writer, AI Heatmap and AI Logo Maker.
AI Writer is exactly what it seems to be, a tool that generates and creates professional-quality text content for your website. So, when you are editing your website, you just need to click a single button on the right panel of the screen and you will see a list of topics, sections and content types that the AI editor can generate for you. Once you’ve chosen what you want, you’ll be given several options for the generated text – just choose one and use it however you see fit.
AI Heatmap is a tool that many Zyro customers praise. AI Heatmap is a specific AI-powered system that has the ability to show you specific areas of your website that are likely to attract the most attention from your site visitors. Needless to say, whatever you plan to use your website for, this tool will come in very handy.
AI Logo Maker is also provided by Zyro to all its users. This is one of the main AI tools available when using the Zyro website builder, and it allows you to create professional-looking logos for your business. The procedure is quick and easy. Additionally, you can expect to be able to choose from thousands of different templates and customize each one to suit your content.
Reliable customer service and support team
You can contact Zyro’s customer support team 24/7 by clicking on the chat icon at the bottom right corner of the interface. Once chat is open, you can use its built-in search box to search for answers to your questions in Zyro’s knowledge base. Two of my questions were answered in the knowledge base.
Otherwise, you can talk to human representatives (not bots) who answer chat questions. Remember that to access the chat you must be logged in to a free or premium Zyro account. Zyro also allows you to send your questions by email.
Prices
Price is often the most important consideration for many people. Zyro offers several levels of service. The most cost-effective option is the free, ad-supported plan, which includes a ridiculously small 500MB of storage space and monthly data transfers (these specs are the same as the free version of Wix).
Given its limitations, this tier may be suitable for businesses that simply need a website to display opening hours, information, and other basic information. The best part is that you don’t have to enter any credit card information to start building a site.
But if you need a professional activity, a Zyro premium account could be the solution for you. Zyro offers 4 types of premium plans, which are:
- Basic: This plan is suitable for a personal brand. For just 2.50 Euro per month you can get 1 GB of storage and 3 GB of bandwidth to connect with your own domain. This plan is perfect if you need a very simple website for a business or brand’s online identity and have already purchased your own domain.
- Unleashed: The Unleashed plan is the recommended plan if you are looking for a solution to create a professional website for your business. For 2.90 euros per month, you can get a free domain for a year, as well as unlimited bandwidth and storage space.
- E-commerce: This plan is perfect for those who run an online store or online store. For just 7.90 euros per month you can get all the features included in the Unleashed plan and more. And what’s more? Well, for an e-commerce plan, you will have an additional feature to add at least 100 products, order tracking, inventory management, the ability to accept online payments, the ability to sell gift cards, and other business-oriented features.
- E-commerce Plus: This is the plan for you who operate an e-commerce site with many products (unlimited) and who needs integration with Facebook shop, Instagram shop and Amazon. This plan gives you functionality for a multilingual website, product filter, and abandoned cart recovery. And you can get all this with just 13.90 euros per month.

Our Verdict
Zyro is a fantastic drag and drop website builder for general beginners. Creating your own website takes less time because there are fewer design functions. Even if you already have a domain, you can register it with Zyro and move to a cheaper host. The great thing about Zyro is that you can always upgrade or downgrade all your plans. You even get a 30-day money-back guarantee if you decide to cancel a paid contract. Also remember that Zyro is constantly evolving, so the moment you visit its website you may see changes in the builder as well as the site itself.
What is the final word? I would definitely recommend looking elsewhere for a good website builder if Zyro didn’t have a simple version for a super-affordable price, full e-commerce, and also crazy price tags. However, since this is not the case, you should definitely give the builder a chance, at least for the simple plan.
