### "Elementor is a really great tool if you want to create websites in a faster and professional way."

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.

### "Elementor was a life saver for me"

April 17, 2026

5.0

Initially, when I started building WordPress websites back in 2019, I was extremely struggling to design appealing and modern pages, until I learned about Elementor page builder.

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 Elementor is concerned, I did not find anything that I like least about the app. So far so good.

### "Elementor Pro: the only “pro” is how professionally they ghost you"

May 31, 2025

1.0

My experience with Elementor 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 Elementor 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 Elementor'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.

### "Steep learning curve then really great product"

March 25, 2026

4.0

While it can be buggy, overall it makes for great website design and provides the ability to allow your website to stand-out.

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.

### "Bespoke Websites with Very Little Code Knowledge"

July 5, 2025

4.0

I've been running website and digital marketing teams for about 15 years and I've experimented with almost every 'easy website builder' offer ranging from Dreamweaver and Geocities to WordPress and Square Space. Elementor allows me to create the full bespoke websites I want without needing to code. 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' Elementor doesn't restrict your design vision; as long as you have the patience, you can build almost anything you want.

Cons

Because Elementor 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

### "Great builder with a lot of options but you have to get used to it"

May 27, 2025

3.0

Overall, a lot of fantastic options, but not the most intuitive tool I have used, so even though it is very popular and compatible with everything I need, I sometimes feel like it is overcomplicated.

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.

### "Quality Legacy Builder that I hope still improves"

May 19, 2025

4.0

I learned WordPress website building on Elementor. 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.

### "Elementor is WordPresses BFF "

August 1, 2025

5.0

Overall Elementor has been my go to as a website developer working with WordPress, but I do often run into limitations, where I have to crowdsource to find solutions.

Pros

Elementor 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.

### "Elementor has ignited a new industry in WP sites"

April 28, 2025

4.0

Good page builder. 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 Elementor window is open. Extra <divs> or tags it adds to elements increases DOM size.

### "Customizable Page Builder"

January 2, 2024

5.0

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.

### "Elementor is my favorite website builder of all times."

September 27, 2023

5.0

I find a lot of comfort in working with Elementor and it helps to design pages quickly and seamlessly. It's my favorite tool of all time.

Pros

I like this software because:- it's mobile and user-friendly in nature- Is in English and offers great usage documentation to users.- Provides flexible and mobile responsive designs- is time-saving and cost-affordable (even for freelancers). I like this feature particularly because I can export my page settings and reuse them on a different project.- is very extensive and can easily integrate with other WordPress plugins, third-party add-ons, and external cloud-based software. This simplifies and completely revolutionizes my web design experience.

Cons

There is nothing to dislike about Elementor for now as I know the product is getting better day after day.

### "Flexible Web Builder"

October 5, 2024

5.0

my experience with Elementor has been positive. It’s a robust and versatile tool for web design, offering a great balance between ease of use and advanced features. While it might take some time to get fully acquainted with all its capabilities, once you do, it becomes an indispensable tool for building and managing websites. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned designer, Elementor provides great value.

Pros

drag and drop and flexiability The flexibility it offers in layout and design options is also impressive, allowing users to fully customize their websites to suit their needs.

Cons

Some advanced features are locked behind the Pro version, which might be frustrating for users on a budget. Additionally, while the platform is quite powerful, it can be a bit overwhelming for beginners due to the sheer number of options and settings.

When it comes to design for WordPress, Elementor is the best choice. It has many good and useful features, is fast and wildly compatible with everything when it comes to themes and plugins.

Pros

I like Elementor's ease of use, building a design for my needs was easy and quite fast, as it was not the first time using it. Is nice that I have some templates to choose from for a design and customize it after my needs in order to save time and money. As a builder, Elementor is not heavy on the WordPress setup and is compatible with plugins for SEO and cache I use.

Cons

All great widgets and features are available on the pro version.

I went from being able to manage a blog to being able to build full websites with advanced functionality thanks to Elementor. It makes beginners look like web masters.

Pros

How easy it is to learn, how simple it is to use, and how smart it makes me look to my boss and my clients - they all think I'm a much more talented "web master" than I am.

Cons

Sometimes I wish it "dragged and dropped" more and was less "click into place" but this is honestly a minor complaint given how much it does.

### "HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE"

August 8, 2024

1.0

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.

### "A tool that can EASILY give a professional look to your website"

July 13, 2021

4.0

Pros

One of my favorite features, is the drag & drop style. This could save you, LITERALLY YEARS of study in web development and still have a nice and professional looking design and layout for your website. Also, the Elementor's option to preview your website on mobile, tablet and computer view helps a lot with your layout. So it saves you time and embarrasing moments of publishing your web and then having it "crashed" on some devices.

Cons

What I consider not so in favor of this tool, is the license price. It may be a bit too high if your a newcomer in creating or having websites. However, once you get the enough cash to invest, you won't regret it.

### "Ok Product, Terrible Service"

September 22, 2022

3.0

I was a writer when I started using Elementor. I loved it at first. When I launched my own agency, my go-to was the Astra theme with Elementor. I don’t even know how many sites I built anymore. It really was a beautiful thing. Now I’m the in-house head of digital marketing for a company. My boss insisted I use another theme and host with Elementor. It’s been nothing but problems. Elements are glitchy, don’t work, or don’t display right on mobile. Their support chat almost always escalates to tier 2, which will only communicate by email with the main email on your account - not ideal for teams. Recently, they released a version that corrupted my site. They admitted it was a known bug, but of course, I didn’t get the email because it went to my boss. I rolled back on my own, but didn’t shut off the updates because I didn’t think Elementor would release something that totally breaks sites. When it happened again, I tried to restore and my site went to all 400 pages. I tried again and it went to all 500 pages. Then it came back on its own, but was still glitchy and unusable. For a week, I was in contact with their support. No resolution. I eventually gave in and tried a third restore. My site’s been stuck in restore mode for two days for a task that should have taken 20 minutes. Support just keeps telling me to wait. That’s literally what tier 2 tells me every time. They will not escalate it higher. Nobody will put me in contact with anyone higher or a manager.

Pros

When it works, it makes WordPress sites as easy to work with as Wix, SquareSpace, or Weebly. My favorite theme (Astra) builds with Elementor, so I can build a very nice customized site in about a day despite not being a developer.

Cons

It’s buggy. Elements, like the typing/ animated text were released even though they don’t display properly. They were left buggy for forever (many months). I’m not even sure they’re working right now. Oftentimes, things don’t display right on mobile either. Their latest update broke my site. I didn’t realize it was Elementor’s fault, so I left updates on. Two weeks later, it broke my site again. Pair that with their shoddy hosting that’s often down and crummy tech support/ customer service and it’s a recipe for disaster. I wasted so much time going between Elementor and the theme’s developer with each blaming the other for things not working during the build. I don’t know how many things i scrapped or how many times I changed direction because things just weren’t working right.
