"I Like it but a bit difficult to learn "
5/5
What do you like best about Ghost?

What I like best about Ghost is the sophistication. It is easy to use once you get the hang of it, but there’s a lot of learning to do before. What I love about Ghost is the Pro subscription of it. It is very difficult to update your Ghost if you are on your own server, but if you’re a Pro subscriber, it is very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ghost?

I dislike that there aren’t really many templates out there or plugins. At least not that I know of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review on Ghost"
4/5
What do you like best about Ghost?

Ghost is a free publishing platform which has JavaScript programming language flexibility. It's easy to use, files could be downloaded and great for content writing. It's hassle free and user friendly for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ghost?

It does not provide plug ins which is handy with other publishing platforms (e.g., Wordpress). The version is still in beta phase which is actually because it's still new. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
