Pros

• It is easy to use the inbuilt modules like carousel, header, accordions, tabs, footer etc.

• Easy to drag and drop those modules and change the content and styles as per our requirement.

• We can change the font family and font sizes easily so that it will be consistent across the website.

Cons

• When we want to add the custom snippet, we need to give both styles and html at one place. We cannot separate stylesheet and HTML code.

• We cannot add much javascript and effects.

• We cannot add styles to the pre-built sections and elements available in the Zoho Sites.

• Much customizations are not possible in the Zoho Sites.
