Art.industries vs Wix
Wix is where many artists start—a free portfolio, Pro Gallery, and optional Wix Stores checkout. Art.industries keeps the public site and the studio back office on one art-specific catalogue, so edition counts, private offers, and storefront sales do not diverge.

Where Wix fits
Wix fits solo artists and small studios that need a portfolio fast: drag-and-drop templates, Wix Pro Gallery, and a free tier to test layout before upgrading. Core plan and above add Wix Stores for fixed-price prints or merchandise. For an artist who only needs a beautiful site and occasional shop sales—and keeps sales records in a notebook or spreadsheet—Wix can be enough.
Where artists and galleries pick Art.industries over Wix alone
Artists outgrow Wix when the site becomes a second catalogue. Art.industries ties Website Studio to structured inventory—numbered editions, consignments, locations, and CRM. Run deals through viewing rooms and Stripe invoicing; run commerce through storefront checkout on Advanced, including print-on-demand. Core is free; no Wix ads on your workflow data.
Deals and commerce: what each platform actually covers
Galleries sell in two modes that most software conflates. Deals are coordinated private sales—viewing rooms, holds, negotiated offers, consignor splits, deposits, and invoices. Commerce is self-serve public checkout for editions, books, and multiples at fixed prices.
Art.industries runs both modes on shared inventory records: mark a work room-only, storefront-eligible, or both; either path updates availability when a sale closes. Many competitors skew toward one mode—gallery CRMs handle deals but force a second catalogue for the website; Shopify-style tools handle commerce but miss holds, consignments, and confidential rooms.
Use the matrix below to see which side each product actually covers, not which checkout widget they advertise.
When Wix is enough—and when it is not
Wix alone is enough for a portfolio site, commission inquiries, and a small Wix Store where you manually update a dozen product pages.
It is not enough when you track edition copies (4/50), consign work to a gallery, send password viewing rooms, or need invoices with deposits and instalments. Wix Stores treats each listing as a product—not as a node in a provenance and sales graph.
Migrating from Wix
Export product CSV from Wix Stores if you used checkout; otherwise gather images and metadata from your Pro Gallery into a spreadsheet. Import into Art.industries with field mapping and the validation preview. Rebuild the public site in Website Studio so artist and series pages read from live records. Artists often move inventory and invoicing to Core first and cut over the public URL once one edition drop proves counts stay in sync.
よくある質問
- Can I keep my free Wix portfolio and use Art.industries for inventory?
- You can, but you will duplicate every new work and price change. Most artists consolidate when an edition sells on Wix but their studio records still show it available—or when they need a viewing room Wix cannot host. Art.industries publishes from the same catalogue; see gallery website builder.
- How does Wix compare to Squarespace for galleries?
- Both are site-first builders without art-inventory semantics. Wix offers a permanent free tier and strong artist portfolio templates; Squarespace skews toward polished gallery branding. See Squarespace comparison for that side-by-side.
- Does Art.industries replace Wix Stores?
- Yes, for artists who want checkout on the same records as studio inventory. Storefront checkout on Advanced handles cart orders and edition availability—without parallel Wix product pages.
- Is Art.industries better than Wix for a student or hobbyist?
- Yes. Wix is a site builder—it displays images in Pro Gallery, but it does not manage artwork. There is no structured record per work, no edition copies, no sold-state discipline, and no link between your studio list and what appears online. Art.industries Core is free and built for that inventory graph from the first piece you log. Students and hobbyists hit the Wix wall the first time they need to track what sold, log a 3/25 edition, or send a commission invoice—not when they "go pro."
- Does Art.industries take a percentage of sales?
- No. You connect your own Stripe account; funds settle directly to you. Stripe takes its standard processing fee.
- Does Art.industries work in languages other than English?
- Yes. The app runs in seven languages (English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Korean, Chinese), and the same records publish multilingual public sites, viewing rooms, and PDF exports. If your collectors or your team work across languages, check this against any platform on your shortlist.
- How do we know the comparison is honest?
- Every competitor cell links to a public source on their own site, with the date we last verified the claim. Anything we cannot verify is marked N/A, never asserted.
