December 31, 2025 5.0 I would recommend this tool to people who wants to start a business of website, and they are awilling to learn to use it properly. Pros They improve a lot about how to build websites easily and faster with great designs and great navigation. Cons Not so many tools to use, it feels that they can implement more. Also customer service is not the best, it is quite hard to reach them when a problem happens. Also their AI is not the best and I dont think worth to pay more for it.

Pros Extremely useful page builder for WordPress website to design modern and fancy pages. It requires minimal to no technical knowledge to build a page, and an interesting part is, they've got many free templates. You wouldn't be spending extra bucks to build a page. Cons As far as my experience with is concerned, I did not find anything that I like least about the app. So far so good. Switched from [Divi](https://www.capterra.com/p/201958/Divi/) Wanted to try out a new page builder. Nothing much. Review Source Riccardo G. Web designer Photography Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Elementor Pro: the only “pro” is how professionally they ghost you" May 31, 2025 1.0 My experience with Pro has been deeply frustrating and disappointing. After getting locked out of my account due to a broken 2FA system, I reached out to support — and was essentially ignored. I opened six separate tickets, and in most cases either received no response or got generic replies that led nowhere. When I did finally hear from someone, they promised to escalate the issue but then disappeared without resolving anything. Pros The only thing worth appreciating about Pro is the abundance of third-party tutorials and community resources online — especially on YouTube. Without those, you'd be completely lost. If you had to rely solely on Elementor’s own support team to solve even basic issues, you'd be absolutely screwed. The user community is doing the heavy lifting that the company clearly doesn’t care to handle Cons I’ve been completely locked out of my account for days, and 's support has been utterly useless. After updating my email, 2FA stopped working entirely — no authentication codes are being sent. I've tried logging in over 50 times. Still nothing. I opened 6 support tickets. The only two times someone replied, they asked for basic info and then said they needed to escalate the issue to another department. The first time, I actually got a response from that department, asking for a new email to replace the broken one. I sent it — and never heard from them again. The second time, I wasn’t even lucky enough to get that far. I’ve followed up multiple times, and I know they’re reading the messages (I'm using Mailtrack), but they’ve completely ignored me. It's a black hole. Elementor Pro is not a professional-grade tool. It may look sleek on the surface, but if something goes wrong — especially something critical like account access — you’re completely on your own. The support team is unresponsive, disorganized, and not trustworthy. Review Source Response from Elementor June 3, 2025 Hi Riccardo, We’re really sorry to hear about your recent experience.

Pros The templates varieties are varied and well priced. Building components of the pages using plug and play to create better looks that the average WP site. Cons It can be a tricky at first to learn, and sometimes it does weird things when you try to add more components/paragraphs. Header footer can be tricky.

I've built three websites with Elementor and, for now, it's my tool of choice. Pros It's very easy for non-coders to turn design ideas into responsive websites. Unlike other page-builders' doesn't restrict your design vision; as long as you have the patience, you can build almost anything you want. Cons Because has fewer restrictions than say SquareSpace, and it has way more features including dynamic elements, it can get confusing. There are also lots of ways to skin a cat, so you'll have to make architecture decisions as you build. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)[Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/) Reason for choosing Elementor allowed me to manage all the little details of the design, which the competitors didn't. There were too many compromises.

Pros There are a lot of fantastic options available, and it is compatible with most of the key plugins I have been using. Cons It is not intuitive and not smooth to work with. I don't think it is quick to learn and use, and sometimes I do find it overcomplicated, but it might be a subjective opinion, as it is not my first choice for the website builder. Alternatives considered [Divi](https://www.capterra.com/p/201958/Divi/) Reason for choosing Elementor I wouldn't, but the website owner had some experience with , and it was best to build it in something he is familiar with Review Source Response from Elementor May 29, 2025 Thank you for your thoughtful review and for giving Elementor a try, even if it wasn’t your first choice. We’re glad to hear you found value in the wide range of features and compatibility with key plugins, that’s something we work hard to ensure.

I have a lot to be thankful for. They have an excellent free version that most people use. But when people need more, they go to the expensive Pro plans or look at 3rd party tools and what they can do for cheaper. Pros It has been a trusted platform for building complex sites on WordPress for a long time now. I use it less because of the recent price increases, but some clients still want to use it. Cons The price increases have made it a bit more expensive for a freelancer to build websites with it. There are some other options out there that are more economical. I wouldn't mind paying extra for extras, but paying a lot for the core product seems too much. They have also been slow to introduce some features that would make it truly a next-gen builder for WordPress. I appreciated the Flex containers, but I have missed more advanced features since then. I am hopeful for the V4 launch but will have to see how that pans out. Alternatives considered [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Reason for choosing Elementor is much easier to use compared to WordPress' block editor. But I also considered Bricks Builder and Oxygen (though they aren't options to select). Review Source Response from Elementor May 22, 2025 Thank you for your detailed and honest review. We’re truly grateful that Elementor has played a part in your WordPress journey and that you’ve trusted us to build complex sites over the years.

Pros allows for robust, dynamic content abilities within WordPress, and gives really powerful templating for posts and different types of elements. Cons It’s not easy to create CSS classes for consistent website styling. I think the software could be a lot more user friendly.

Upgrading to Pro turns it into a site builder, giving you design control over the header, footer, blog post templates, and more. Pros How they made flexbox (and css grid) easier and more accessible to web designers and developers. Cons Lag in the backend, especially when more than one window is open. Extra or tags it adds to elements increases DOM size.

Web Designer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Customizable Page Builder" January 2, 2024 5.0 Pros I love how many customizations are available out of the box with the 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 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.
