Elementor Reviews

Elementor Visual Builder : a good choice for everyone

Comments: I use elementor [paid and free] for some clients who like to customize on their own, so i needed a very user friendly interface for them. Never disappointed.

Pros:

I like the most that is quick to setup and to use. I never had any overloading problem with elementor, like i had with more heavy visual builders.

Cons:

Some critical features for professional are under paid license, and this license is an annual fee. Elementor doesn't have a lifetime solution, and that's a pity.

Alternatives Considered: Divi

Reasons for Choosing Elementor: For some clients Elementor was a better Solution, so i switched. For others was not, and i used Divi builder.

Switched From: Divi

Reasons for Switching to Elementor: Divi is more complex, and with its one time license offers all the functionality of the paid version of elementor. This means customize everything, even core templates in Wordpress or Woocommerce. I don't need all of this for some of my clients, who want to do some things on their own, and i needed a more quick and easy interface. Elementor was the perfect solution.

It's a the most flexible website builder to use in WordPress

Comments: It's a very great tool for building good WordPress websites. I would recommend it because it's popular and professional.

Pros:

Elementor is such a fantastic website builder. I like it because it enables me to accomplish a lot of cool things with ease and simplicity. First, It's one of the most beginner-friendly WordPress plugins that I've known up to now - it's easy to set up and it's extremely popular in the market. Secondly, It's compatible with a lot of third-party plugins and applications that are currently driving impacts in the market today which simplify all the hard process of work. It's feature-rich and provides advanced customization features with a lot of design options like templates, predesigned pages, sections, and some other forms of lead-generation pages that are amazing to use when starting off with a project. Besides this, It works seamlessly with some of my favorite javascript frameworks like GSAP to add professional animations to pages and sections. Additionally, I like Elementor because it's not limited to just the framework environment, it also allows the user to add their own HTML, CSS, and Javascript codes. To my knowledge, there is no other definition of flexibility than this.

Cons:

Elementor can be a little frightening in the beginning and can seem to be challenging too but ultimately becomes easy with time. I noticed that the editor becomes slow sometimes when too many add-ons are used and other times, it becomes completely inaccessible as the features can't be clicked when I use it with Elements Kit Pro whereas the lite version of Elementskit doesn't show this conflict in attitude with Elementor.

A fantastic starting point

Comments: A fantastic tool for getting a website up and running to a fairly high spec.

Pros:

The ability to quickly set up a website with no coding experience.

Cons:

Always going to be limited without additional plugins etc.

Alternatives Considered: Drupal

Reasons for Choosing Elementor: Needed to redesign a website and previous company wanted to charge a lot so moved to this for ease of use and flexibility.

Switched From: Drupal

Reasons for Switching to Elementor: Ease of use and flexibility with design tweaks.

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

Comments: Purchased an image optimizer plan which was basically implied that it was needed, to operate with the standard Elementor plugin which we already pay for. We use this to design our Wordpress website which the Elementor Plugin is very buggy in that regard. The FREE image optimizer offers up to 5,000 images to be optimized which we have. The plugin stated we had exceeded our quota, so we elected to upgrade for a 5,000+ photo plan for $50. Plugin wouldn't work and still stated we were over quota. Something seemed skechy, but okay. We went ahead and purchased the next package which is the 20,000 photo plan for another $50. Again, wouldn't work. Contacted technical support after going round and round with their Auto BOT for about 10 minutes. Guess it just wanted to refuse me in speaking with someone? Think that was intentional but moving forward...finally spoke to someone and they said they would take a look and to download their "Temporary Login" plugin. Did that, granted them access, and they said they couldn't get into our site and to reset it and then grant access again. Did that and they still couldn't get in. At this time we've got about an hour invested in this crap show and said just cancel our subscription plan and provide a refund. All of our images are already optimized using the WebP extension. "Oh, we're sorry but our products are non-refundable!" Okay, I'll call my bank to dispute the charges for a product that failed to work for me and I'll go ahead and also leave you 1-star reviews everywhere I can, to advise others of your shady business practice. That threat didn't seem to change their tune so here I am. REVIEW LEFT AND FUNDS ARE NOW BACK IN MY ACCOUNT AFTER CALLING MY FINANCIAL INSTITUTION AND TELLING THEM OF THEIR BUSINESS PRACTICES! SHAME ON YOU! You can do better!

Pros:

Kind of hard to list this when the customer service experience was so HORRID!

Cons:

It's extremely buggy. It does not play nicely with other plugins.

Perfect for Beginner and Advanced Website Deisgners!

Pros:

As a beginner of website design, using Elementor was the perfect choice for me. Its intuitive drag-and-drop interface and many customization options made it easy for me to create a professional and engaging website without needing to spend hours learning code. The pre-designed templates saved me time, and its responsive design ensures my site looks great on any device. Elementor's blogging tools help me to create and share my blogposts, while making sure any visitors to my site have a great user experience. The cost-effectiveness and amazing customer support further make Elementor an invaluable asset for my business.

Cons:

Honestly, it's challenging to find cons for Elementor since using it was straightforward and quickly resulted in a professional-looking website. However, one issue I found was the inconsistency in resizing images; ensuring that three images in a row were the same size sometimes required finding new images, which was frustrating. Additionally, while Elementor is easy to learn, mastering it takes time. The first version of your website may need a lot of tweaking as you become more familiar with the software, as some customization features can feel a bit unintuitive at first.

Alternatives Considered: Wix, Squarespace and Weebly

Reasons for Switching to Elementor: I looked at reviews for the alternatives and there were often people saying that the sites looked less professional while costing more money. I came across other people recommending Elementor instead. There are also lots of online resources and tutorials for Elementor which adds to the user experience.

Customizable Page Builder

Pros:

I love how many customizations are available out of the box with the Elementor page builder. You can bring your designs to life with only a few button clicks, and features like Templates and Global Widgets make going back to make sitewide updates in the future simple and efficient. Elementor also makes mobile responsiveness easy to accomplish for all web pages built which is essential.

Cons:

Elementor doesn't always have the widgets that you need, and add-on plugins are necessary to get certain effects for more complex functionality. Contact form email notifications also tend to not work well at the start and have to be integrated with an SMTP related plugin to function as expected.

Great Time Saver

Pros:

As a Physician Owner and CTO of a multipractice medical supergroup I have limited time to effect requested content changes on up to 12 web sites using WordPress. When our designer added the Elementor overlay it cut management time drastically.

Cons:

Sometimes the specifics of certain tasks are not intuitive and there is no help function that I am aware of. I can usually get hep online or by emailing our developer.

Elementor - drag and drop builder

Comments: Elementor is an important tool for every Wordpress setup, is fast, easy to use and create desired design. It has many functions that can increare design features and build speed.

Pros:

One of the reason Elementor is suitable for me is its compatibility, works great with WooCommerce and many other plugins that I use for my website like SEO plugins and cache for an increased website speed. It has many addons/plugins that you can install to increase website functions and design. Because is widely use, Elementor is always up to date with design needs and functions which make it a great tool for every website. It has many already made themes that you can buy if you don't want tot start from scratch.

Cons:

Depends on the needs, the costs can increase if you need more functionalities and features.

Elementor, a fast website builder

Comments: Overall, Elementor is a great website builder, is easy to use and always up to date with the latest technologies. There are many addons for it which can help create stunning designs and all the plugins for SEO and speed are compatible with it.

Pros:

I really like Elementor because is easy to setup and lightweight on the WordPress setup, doesn't affect page speed. It has many templates to choose from if you don't want to start from scratch even if is really easy to create new design with drag and drop. I saw there are many more complex and themes on different markets if you need any for saving some time with design.

Cons:

There is nothing I can say I like least, for my need everything works as I imagined.

Elementor - not just drag and drop

Comments: A well build WordPress plugin that really improve website functionality and design creation. Always up to date with the new technologies used in web design.

Pros:

The most important thing to mention is the compatibility with all other plugins for WordPress. Elementor is easy to setup and use, the drag and drop builder is fast and very intuitive and I don't need any programing skills to use it and create a design for my website pages. Works very good with WooCommerce and SEO plugins which make it a indispensable asset for any WordPress setup. Is fast and does not increase website loading speed.

Cons:

All the good things are available only on the pro version.

Great way to make beautiful websites

Comments: We use Elementor when we are making Wordpress pages for our customers. It is a very quick way to build a beautiful website. The problems come when the website needs to load fast, then we have to spend significant time on optimizations. If you want to use the free version, you will have to work around the disadvantages by writing your own code and styling your own elements by hand. In short, it is a great tool for those who know how to handle their page speed and how to fix things on the fly using css. It is a decent tool for those who are only in for the blockbuilding.

Pros:

It takes the design out of my hands. The presets are amazing, all the blocks are designed to be very pleasing to the eye, and it makes it easy for me to make beautiful websites with only basic knowledge of design. Elementor is also a very fast way to make websites - just reuse blocks you set up and you have a full website running in no time.

Cons:

It is kind of pricey for what it is, especially since it became a subscription rather than one time payment. A bigger problem, though, is in the speed hit your website takes with Elementor. Unless you are dedicated to fixing things manually, your website will load much longer. It would be great if they could optimize it better on their end, clean the code up and make it sleeker.

The most user friendly WordPress website builder ever!

Comments: I started building websites thanks to Elementor. Elementor made the whole process so easy, that I started to divert my whole agency business to WordPress Development from just doing social media management.

Pros:

The ease of use, just drag and drop. The number of Elements/ Functions it offers. (for example, I don't need to purchase another plugin for form building thanks to Elementor) The ecosystem of other supporting WordPress plugins to enhance the functionality built in with Elementor. The excellent pre built site/ container library, which makes the process even faster. Elementor also has a massive and loyal community behind it. If there is an issue, there is almost always an article/ video about it and the members of the Facebook group is always happy to help you out.

Cons:

Customer support from Elementor is almost non-existent, even for the paying customers. Even though Elementor has worked hard to reduce the bloat Elementor introduces to a website to increase the site speed, it's still not good enough. It can't compete with Gutenberg when it comes to speed.

Alternatives Considered: Divi

Reasons for Switching to Elementor: Ease of use. The additional functionalities compared to the competition. Community behind Elementor

After 2-3 Years On My Website

Comments: Elementor has allowed me to create a website from scratch and build something I wanted. Yes, I used initial templates but this has developed over time to what I have today so I can offer my style to my niche. But the great thing is if I feel different tomorrow I can change the style and feel really quickly with all the options you have available.

Pros:

Elementor is fairly easy to use. There is a bit of a learning curve but once you understand and use the support videos when needed you should find it quite simple to use. I like most the freedom to design and change as you please and quickly. You think of or see a new idea, ok I implement it now quickly, 10 minutes it's done. Fast, efficient, and ways to use.

Cons:

For sure Elementor isn't everything you need. It's not a photo editor, this is my main issue. People use photos a lot for backgrounds, the home page hero section, getting the photo in the right position without losing the aspect of the photo can be an issue for me. Left or right, do not lose part of the head or body.

Alternatives Considered: Gutenberg Technology and Divi

Reasons for Switching to Elementor: I had heard good things about Elementor and there are a lot of how to use Youtube videos which helped in my decision to buy.

The best Page Builder for WordPress

Comments: Overall building sites with elementor goes so much faster for me with their kits feature, site settings and theme builder. To have a universal header and footer saves a ton of time and to also have the choice of whether you keep it on all pages or select pages is great if you want to vary the options depending on the page. My time spent building sites has been greatly reduced with some of their mroe recent features which are availbe in their pro version.

Pros:

Elementor makes site building so easy and the fact that it includes so many built in features means you can reduce the number of other plugins needed for an effective site build. I personally think it is far easier to use than some of the other page builders on the market, and I have tried a few. Now elementor is integrating with SEO plugins like Rank Math as well as course builders like Learn Dash which makes the types of sites I usually build work much better since these plugins "speak" to each other. Its extensive functionality eliminates the need for so many other plugins I used to use like form plugins. My favorite feature is being bale to download an entire site as a kit, plugins and all. The next is being able to edit site wide colors and fonts with site settings.

Cons:

For newbies there might be a little bit of a learning curve especially when it comes to tweaking things like margins and positioning of widgets. The other con is that when they do updates you may find some of the features getting a little glitchy, but if you let their support know they are very responsive. There are a ton of features that you may never use if you are new to design, and it can be very overwhelming. There are occasional updates that reset some of the styles, but they usually can be fixed quite easily.

Alternatives Considered: Divi

Reasons for Choosing Elementor: I made the switch because of the WYSIWYG editor worked better for me than the previous builders.

Switched From: Divi

Reasons for Switching to Elementor: Their price was better and their builder was just better for my style of website building.

It is my best web builder for WordPress

Comments: Overall, Elementor helps me to design websites rapidly and professionally. It provides a wonderful editing experience and helps users to achieve quality results.

Pros:

In my career, I tried a few website builders for WordPress, and among all, Elementor stands out and so far it's my first recommendation for users who are looking for a fast-forward web builder to help hone and fasten their skills. I prefer Elementor because of its user-friendly interface and drag-and-drop functionality. Its extensive design options and pre-designed templates help to speed up the web design process as I can simply import the templates and customize them as per my liking and there is no need to write custom HTML or CSS codes as the plugin is already programmed to render elements visually appealing in the frontend. Another advantage of using Elementor is that the plugin takes up almost 60% of the media query and provides options for designers to manually adjust the remaining 40. The containers use Flexbox by default with predefined CSS values which I find extremely helpful and time-saving. I also get to achieve a lot more with third-party extensions such as droit addons, MailChimp, Gsap, and others. Most precisely, the Gsap plugin seamlessly integrated with Elementor to provide advanced animation functionalities to the websites which make them highly interactive and can highly boost user experience as well.

Cons:

Even though I find Elementor helpful and advanced in designs, however, it depends on third-party extensions for more extendability and since its core functionalities are somewhat limited, I'm forced to install one or several extensions depending on what I want to achieve and in the end, they turn to affect the site loading speed. So, it would be better if Elementor could properly evaluate the benefits users get from third-party extensions and try to incorporate them in the core plugin, that way, users like myself won't have to increase server workload with third-party extensions especially as some of them might be well coded or optimized.

Forgot cost, you can't afford not to

Comments: I absolutely depend on it. As a stubborn old construction non tech individual, it has saved me time, money and has given me a wider understanding of the web itsself. I can't believe I only had to pay what I did. Thank you Elementor

Pros:

This is the best plugin/site builder ever. Just with the free features you get more value for what you pay for the entire program. I am a penny pincher, and I take my sweet time before offering my hard earned money on programs, and I will tell you I wasted more time by not diving in sooner. Time is money folks, and I also completed eliminated my need to bug my kids or tech guys for help on my site. Mr. Construction, who works with his hands can now build websites, forums, and everything in between. Is it worth it? Yes, for the cost of a steak dinner, you get months of your life back

Cons:

I can't stand the fact I waited so long! I would say...the only thing they could do better is give away free gold at the end of the rainbow. Simply, and honestly, nothing.

a WordPress page manufacturer that has overwhelmed the WordPress website composition

Comments: I think of it as an absolute necessity have WordPress page developer that is a delight to utilize. Individuals obviously adore it andquot; however, is this simply the most recent prevailing fashion, or is Elementor really a definitive page manufacturer for WordPress? The Good, Bad, And The Ugly. For this audit, I started up Elementor to perceive how well this page developer charges in contrast with prevalent options.

Pros:

Elementor is a WordPress page manufacturer that has overwhelmed the WordPress website composition. It had the most profound list of capabilities, yet is anything but difficult to utilize an ace. Elementor is the most full-included free page developer. Elementor is the most progressive page developer available. With ordinary updates, solid drag and drop and creative highlights, both the free and paid items are magnificent Elementor causes you to include progressed styling, format, and plan components to your WordPress content without expecting you to know the code. In the new Elementor Proform, you can even structure your whole WordPress topic likewise without having to know any code. On a progressively explicit note, Elementor is what's known as a visual simplified page developer module. There are two sections to that depiction, so we should parse each: Visual implies that when you structure your substance, you see precisely what your guests will see. There will never be any perplexity about how your page will look once you distribute it. Simplified implies that you can move around different plan components - like catches, structures, or pictures - just by moving them. No code required! Great user interface Remarkable Global gadgets Update history works well It is open source Has a functioning Facebook gathering Overly nitty gritty documentation Shrouded components and Unique styling for responsive Their Core item is 100% free

Cons:

Cons Styling constrained as a matter of course Unfit to legitimately alter components Missing a few advertising focused highlights There's not a fixed catch Elementor is the most grounded page manufacturer as of now accessible. They reliably discharge new highlights that are in accordance with current plan patterns. This implies you will almost certainly keep your site applicable. Elementor Pro is unbelievable esteem considering all the extra modules and power includes that it incorporates. On the off chance that I was beginning another site venture today, Elementor would be the page manufacturer that I would pick.

Elementor - Great free website builder (limited free version)

Comments: My overall experience with Elementor is good. I started out using Visual Composer because that was the main visual builder that everyone was using. Over time Elementor plugin got better and better and their visual builder got better and better. To the point where it got better than visual composer, and as a result, over time, many people started transitioning over to using Elementor, and now it seems like it is the most ubiquitous visual builder for WordPress and rightfully so, it is a great visual builder. I just think they need to make it a one-time fee versus a yearly payment option, in my opinion.

Pros:

The biggest benefit for me was the sophistication of their visual Website Builder. I know some developers don't actually like the visual website builders because they're used to working with code directly and writing it out manually. But for me, I do minimal amounts of coding, and I would rather see a visual representation of my designs. Since I'm used to designing with something like Adobe Illustrator or Affinity Designer, I appreciate visual design. So for me, being able to see the design and to freely move things on the page very easily is very important for designing a website. Another big benefit to Elementor is that there are more advanced functionalities that you can do, compared to something like visual composer.

Cons:

The biggest cons to Elementor is, It's pretty limited on the free version. You can still do quite a lot on the free version, but if you want to get into the nitty-gritty of a design with custom CSS, and other more custom or advanced features you have to pay a yearly fee. And in my opinion, this yearly fee seems a bit high. If it was a one-time fee, it would be a much better proposition. I hate how every company now wants you to pay monthly fees, and guess what we do it! I don't know why, but many people are used to this model now, including myself. For some instances, it makes sense, where you are paying a monthly fee for a buffet of media (ie Spotify and Netflix). But since this is a software you may only use once or twice a month after your initial design is done, a yearly fee doesn't make sense to me. I understand that web developers will use this on their client sites and it makes sense to just get the 1000 site license. That would make sense. But for people with 3-5 sites or just one site, the monthly fee just doesn't make sense to me. I think there should be a tool that you can design your website once. And maybe make very small changes over the coming months, or years without having to pay, essentially, a monthly fee. So, if you want to get the most benefit out of Elementor, you have to pay for the use of the software or the plugin. And under that value proposition. You're not getting a lot of value for the money. If you just use the free version, you're getting a

Why I left Genesis for Elementor

Comments: Overall my experience with Elementor/Elementor Pro has been positive. There are plenty of pain points that I hope get better as it continues to mature, but I'm able to build some really cool sites much faster than when using the Genesis Framework. If a client wants a new page or a new section on a page that task is significantly easier with Elementor then Genesis.

Pros:

I love that Elementor allows me to create layouts and add design elements that would take a significantly longer time. It's as simple as installing the plugin and activating and if you want the additional features the yearly cost for Pro is very minimal especially for the features you gain. With the Genesis Framework you would have to build out widget areas in functions.php which was great compared to the prior methods but with Elementor it's as simple as adding a new section and styling it. At the end of the day, time is money.

Cons:

For a new user (the client) it's still not as user-friendly as most of them would like. If they are used to the old WordPress methods of doing things change typically comes with some resentment. Depending on the complexity of the project there are many different areas of the admin that the user will have to look to figure out where something lives and even then it's not self-explanatory for someone without a web design background. It's come a long way and will always continue to get better. Another major pain point for me as a designer is making padding and margin consistent from page to page and even section to section. Since Elementor allows every section to be modified you can very quickly have a page that looks much different than the rest of the site. And since edits can be done on a page by page basis as well as a global basis making modifications can be very tedious depending on how it was built from the start.

A user-friendly website builder for small business owners, highly recommended!

Comments: Overall, I have found Elementor to be a solid choice for designing a professional-looking website for my small business. While it does have some limitations and drawbacks, its user-friendly interface and customizable design options make it a worthwhile tool for those looking to create a functional and visually appealing website.

Pros:

As a small business owner, I have found Elementor to be a helpful and user-friendly website builder. One of the key benefits of Elementor is its drag-and-drop interface, which makes it easy for anyone to design their own website without needing advanced technical skills. The platform also offers a wide range of customizable templates and design elements, allowing me to fully personalize my website to match my brand and style. I also appreciate that Elementor ensures that my website looks great on all devices, from desktop to mobile, thanks to its responsive design.In addition to its design capabilities, Elementor includes built-in SEO tools and features to help improve my website's ranking in search engines. Though I use Yoast SEO for it primarily. It also integrates with a variety of popular WordPress plugins, which has allowed me to add additional functionality to my website along with WooCommerce.

Cons:

However, there are a few drawbacks to Elementor as well. While there is a free version available, it is quite limited in terms of design options and features. Additionally, the platform can sometimes be slow to load, especially if you are using a lot of elements on your website. It has happened to me. Support resources are also not as comprehensive as those offered by some other website builders. It took days to find a solution for a bug. It can also be overwhelming for my employees to navigate and make design decisions due to the sheer number of options and design elements available. Finally, Elementor is not the cheapest website builder on the market, and you may need to purchase additional add-ons or extensions to get the full range of features you want. I added third party addons for increased performance.

Elementor has changed how I build my websites and those of clients

Comments: After years of suffering through using Visual Composer and other builders, Elementor finally made me feel comfortable as it works the way I would anticipate a visual page builder to work. There are a few little issues, but the benefits are so much greater. It's intuitive and my clients can easily grab onto the concepts used in Elementor. All my sites and client sites are built on Elementor now.

Pros:

Elementor is simply the most progressive, future-facing page builder I've seen. I've literally tried every page builder out there, and there are many good ones. But the folks at Elementor have gotten it right. You get full control over the styling, including all the modern CSS tricks you would want, and a very robust set of modules. The free version of Elementor is hands down the best free page builder you can get, which is evidenced by some of the fastest growing numbers in the repository. The Pro version of Elementor takes things to a whole new level, adding dozens of extra modules and features, which make the upgrade a no-brainer. And now that they include a full theme building feature set with dynamic values and more, it's the most complete page builder around. There are numerous great third party plugins as well, and thousands of users in their community who are willing to help. It's pretty amazing. Plus, there is a role manager, which is great for use with clients.

Cons:

There are a few modules that I would like to see more flexibility in, particularly those like the tabs and accordions. You can put any content you want in them if you use Elementor templates, but I'd like to be able to build layouts in them directly without having to use templates. The role manager could use a little more flexibility. Right now you either give people access to the content editing, or the whole builder, or none of the builder. I'd like to be able to allow them to edit content, duplicate/delete/add modules, but not access the advanced settings. But this is apparently coming, so I look forward to it.

Elementor – Easy to use Wordpress-Page-Builder for beginners and experts

Pros:

As a developed guy in website building I came around Elementor and was concerned about its functionality. But after some hours of looking around, testing features and the Live Editor, it was a pleasure working with it. Every beginner would understand it withing some hours of looking deeper into it and look up some functions. And as an expert, you can really customize everything. I had a Website set up with Elementor that had a Page Speedtest Score of about 60-70 / 100 and with the help of the experimental functions and the performance options in the elementor settings itself, it boosted the score over 90. It's great that the team of Elementor looks into the needs of good websites in view to google score ratings and improves it with every update more.

Cons:

There is just one bug that annoys you when you are not familiar with the problem. Sometimes when you are logged in and recognized by the cookies in wordpress the Page-Builder stucks in loading. The solution is simple but if you dont know it, you will get close to a heart attack. Simply lock out from wordpress and log in again. Then everything works as usual with the loading of the Page-Builder (maybe that helps anyone ^^) - This bug is known about a longer period of time and the team is not pushing the importance of this. A little minus.

One of my favorite extremely powerful page builders for Wordpress

Comments: Elementor requires paying for it to be of any real use and it pairs very well with the Astra theme in my experience. It can help you get a design out of your head and onto the page very quickly and easily, but I'll likely eventually have to convert to something else as page load speeds become more of a critical factor for ranking in search engines.

Pros:

Elementor can most likely allow you to create just about any page design you can think of. Other page builders may also have similar functionality, but the difference with Elementor is that it's easy to get a lot of things accomplished vs other builders that can be extremely convoluted to use. The other problem with page builders in general is that they can be riddled with bugs, and my use of Elementor has been extremely seamless.

Cons:

Elementor's design can often make sites start to become bloated in terms of loading time. I had originally explored Elementor because I had thought it created fairly clean, light-weight code, but this doesn't seem to be the case in the recent versions. If you're looking for website load speed, this may not be the page builder you're looking for, but otherwise Elementor will likely get what you want done for your site.

Making Web Site Creation Easy

Comments: Elementor is built with a specific type of user in mind. Having said that is a tool that can be used by any and anyone. Have no web building experience? This is the tool for you. For newcomers it allows you to cut the middleman out and get things done yourself. For pros Elementor is great tool for quickly putting together launchpad websites for clients. I have been using it for almost a year now and I often use it when I need to create a few concept websites for my clients. For me its great for making lauchpad websites and concept pages for clients. I can quickly make something and be able to demo

Pros:

Its free to use. Need I say more. Yes, and what is available in the free version is more than enough to get the job done. Elementor was made for easy WordPress page creation. Its great for people like myself that just want to get things done as easy and as quick as possible. Its puzzle like approach will have you adding in and swapping features and designs until you're satisfied. Oh, and it works well with other WordPress themes and plugins so you will never lack design ideas for your websites. Their customer service will assist you with whatever you need customized or help you troubleshoot problems.

Cons:

The pro version is subscription based and is charged per website. This means every website that you want to utilize pro features you will need to have the required tier. While this is ok, if you’re just building your own website, if you're using Elementor as a dedicated web creation tool you will need to plunk down a fair amount for the expert version. Also, this is definitely not a tool for those who prefer to make adjustments to wordpress coding. Behind the sleek surface is very messy code that will require you to write even messier code to get your custom fixes working. Customer service is also behind the paywall so you may have to make due with forums and documentation to solve your issues.

Alternatives Considered: Divi

Elementor is a no-brainer solution if you want to create websites!

Comments: Being a web designer for quite some time, I have tried using other website builders. But Elementor still exceeds my expectations, aside from being flexible, it's also very affordable.

Pros:
