Features
Here are some of the features of the craft that you should know -
Blog
Ucraft comes with built-in blog functionality. The blog editor has all the features you need including saving posts to be published in the future, drafts, categorizing or tagging posts as well as adding a comments section through integration. In addition to adding social media buttons (which is really cool!), it also lets you include an accompanying social media image that will show when your article is shared on Twitter or Facebook.
eCommerce
Ucraft does not have its own eCommerce store instead it uses, Ecwid. Luckily integrated smoothly and despite being limited by Ecwid’s inherent problems such as outputting complicated checkout processes. It can sell both digital and physical products from where one can configure shipping methods alongside SKU’s weight taxes and more.”
App Store
The Ucraft App Store offers many powerful integrations that are available to its users. From Google Analytics, MailChimp, YouTube, PayPal, and SoundCloud to Eventbrite and more. However there is a drawback — the majority of these integrations will cost you money or require your company to pay for a premium plan in order for the work effectively.
Drag and Drop to Build Your Dream Website.
The Ucraft interface is generally well-organized and the tools you need to start building your website are readily accessible. At first glance, you can identify the preview button that lets you see how your site will appear on different devices from the site editor. From the Pages menu, there are various designs of pages for easy management as well as managing content blocks that can be customized or added in whatever way desired.
Easy to use User Interface
The user interface is easy to use. The developers made sure that it would cater to beginners who don’t know how to code. One problem I encountered though was the lack of undo/redo buttons and a steep learning curve, which could be painful for some users.
The builder is markedly user-friendly but has a steep learning curve without any undo or redo buttons which makes it difficult for some people who need this feature.

It’s also important to note that there are no undo/redo buttons on Ucraft’s website editor as well — so if you make mistakes at all in your work (which can sometimes happen), you will have lost everything with no way back — something worth noting before using the site editor.
