Elementor Visual Builder : a good choice for everyone

Kommentare: 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.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Divi

Warum Elementor gewählt wurde: For some clients Elementor was a better Solution, so i switched. For others was not, and i used Divi builder.

Zuvor genutzte Software: Divi

Gründe für den Wechsel zu 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

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

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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

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

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

Always going to be limited without additional plugins etc.

Zuvor genutzte Software: Drupal

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

Kommentare: 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!

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

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