Why Switch

Why Dublin Businesses Are Leaving Squarespace

Squarespace templates look polished until you need something they weren't designed for. At €16-€49/month, you're renting a website you can never truly customise. Need a feature outside their ecosystem? Tough. Want to move to another platform? Start over. RedStudio gives you Squarespace-level aesthetics with none of the limitations — a fully custom site you own, hosted wherever you want, with features built for your specific business needs.
