### "Flawed site builder that will need to evolve to survive"

September 30, 2021

2.0

Frustrating, disappointed. Horrible usability. I am in disbelief how this builder can be so popular. I guess it just reflects the popularity of WordPress - people just don't know about better options.

Pros

There are some good-looking ready-made designs and there are many external plugins to support Elementor where it is flawed - and yes, it truly needs all the support it can get.

Cons

Usability is horrible, especially after using some better, more functional website builders. It offers quite many ways to modify content, but the user interface is lightyears behind the modern ones. Even the pro version (which became much more expensive for developers this year) lacks many many basic elements and functionalities, and those have to be bought elsewhere. Every time I have to deal with this software it drives me mad, and it is not a question of not using enough time learning it, on the contrary. I have wasted way too many precious life hours trying to build things with Elementor, only ending up frustrated and noticing that what I wanted to do is not possible. I wish I could get a refund for the dev license, goodbye money.

### "Review of Elementor"

July 21, 2022

4.0

Overall it's a great software, it makes creating landing pages seem like child's play

Pros

I really love Elementor, it has countlessly come to my rescue with it's easy to use and user friendly interface. It helps you to create professional web pages easily even as a beginner. It's a very good software

Cons

I feel Elementor is a great app but it'll be better if it allows easy use with mobile phones. Some times I might just want to do a quick build on my phone and I'm unable to because the drag and drop function does not really work on most phones. If this can be solved, I believe it'll be one of the best website softwares if not the best

### "Best website builder"

May 27, 2021

5.0

Elementor is THE best website builder for me. I have been using it on my website since 3 years now. Pricing is reasonable and features make your website look amazing.

Pros

Elementor interface is awesome. It is very user-friendly. The best thing about elementor is you don't need to buy a website template which can cost around 60 to 100 US dollars. While elementor yearly pricing starts from 39 US dollars and you can design website as per your need. That's amazing. I love the lottie feature most. My website is attractive and speed.

Cons

Sometimes while updating the website it loads slowly and does not have enough templates. Forms are not attractive.

### "Elementor"

July 6, 2022

5.0

Elementor helps me to build websites super fast and they look pretty responsive and attractive. I highly recommend it.

Pros

Elementor is my preferred web builder. It's very easy to use and provides incredibly web building experience with its drag & drog capabilities. It's very smooth and has a lot of pretty pre-made templates that in reality, helps to maximize my workflow thereby reducing workload. It's cheap and can still be accessible without money, however, the free plan is limited in many ways. To really enjoy the power of this tool, I recommend upgrading to a paid version.

Cons

Sometimes it doesn't provide full historical data. I also discovered that the tool is so sensible to an extend where objects can be easily displaced from their initial positions when I mistakenly double-click my mouse. Secondly, when I have more than 4 elementor addons installed, It seems to take an eternity for elementor to load on my pages. I suggest these bugs should be fixed by developers.

### "Elementor is the best WebSite builder tool"

March 7, 2022

5.0

Before I start using Elementor Pro, I waste a lot of time searching for plugins that can achieve the same result of the Elementor Pro widgets, so buying this plugin saves me a lot of time and having all in one place helps your website for being faster.

Pros

All the customizable options makes Elementor the best tool for website building in Wordpress.

Cons

There are some other plugins that you have to buy and integrate to Elementor in order to achieve more impressive websites. In my opinion, some of that other plugins/widgets have to be native on Elementor Pro.

### "Great builder, Free is enough for start up, but pro is expensive. "

January 24, 2022

5.0

Overall I have no other choice other than Elementor, its fast, easy to set up, easy to use easy to import, and export you can even copy pest entire section from one page to another which is impressive and will help a lot.

Pros

I used this web builder ever since I started my company. the free version is enough and perfect for start-up but eventually, you will grow and need a lot of versatility and more widget which you need to upgrade then you will understand it is pretty expensive.

Cons

a bit expensive, sometimes it acts strangely with a slow connection, customer service is poor and it's not straightforward.

### "Page building and layout editing in WordPress has never been easier!"

July 30, 2019

5.0

Overall, I find Elementor to be the easiest way to create and edit pages on WordPress sites. I now use this for all of my client’s websites, and they are really happy with the end results. It features so many widgets even its free edition that it makes building a feature-filled webpage a doddle. It’s very much a step-up from WordPress’s inbuilt page customisation tools.

Pros

I find the UI of Elementor to be very user-friendly, even those who have very little experience with WordPress page editing will be able to pick this up very easily. There are many widgets available in the free edition that can satisfy the needs of a small site (button, text, picture, video, etc.). The range of customisation for page layouts (column amounts, widths, etc.) and widget options (cell padding, colour changes, etc.) means you can really customise your site to meet your own needs and desires rather than having just another ‘cookie-cutter’ site style. The drag-and-drop feature when inserting widgets onto a page, as well as options available through right-click, mean it is super-simple to add, edit, and remove items in the edit view. A lot of WordPress plugins now support Elementor integration for widgets and layouts, which is especially useful if you use one of these plugins as it can be added to a site page via Elementor.

Cons

The pricing plan is three-tiered (pricing for 1 site, 3 sites, and 1000 sites). I’m not sure how this compares to competitors as I haven’t shopped around since Elementor more than meets my needs, but I’d prefer to be able to pay for up to 10 sites instead of needing to pay for up to 1000 sites, which I’m realistically going to get nowhere near. I would also like to be able to pay for a perpetual licence but the only options are for a yearly subscription – although this also comes with support for the year and updates for the year, I would still prefer to outright pay for a licence instead of a recurring cost. However, this wouldn’t put me off using the product as it still meets my needs.

### "The best solution for website building in 2023"

March 12, 2023

5.0

I can make more websites in a shorter period of time. save time and energy

Pros

Honestly the ease of drag and dropping. You can build a website in minutes. I love that fact that you can import ready made templates or use the ones already on the platform.

Cons

Most of the best features are in th epro version. Importing templates etc. I think there should be a free trial so persons can get a feel before going pro. Allow for limited templates.

### "Elementor is great for a novice builder"

November 18, 2022

5.0

I am quite happy with Elementor as a whole and do recommend it to new users any chance I get. It is my number one go to builder. I very much dislike difficult to work with editors, Elementor was very easy to learn.

Pros

I have tried several builders and Elementor is my number one go to. It's great for a novice and easy to learn, but yet, it allows the capability for programmers to take the program further with advanced coding. There are more than enough options available inside the program that allows a new user to build a web page with little effort or frustration.

Cons

It's a minor issue but the dividers should go across the entire page and not just the width of the container. I would also love to be able to type inside the container, on the page, instead of the editor's window on the left. I find this feature an inconvenience with less space to work with.

5.0

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.

### "Build a Website with No Coding Skill!"

September 7, 2022

5.0

Elementor is a wonder product for beginners or professionals who love to build a website with different branding and features without any coding skills. Elementor has made it easy and simple for me to build websites for my clients and company products in a short time and a creative user interface. Thank you Elementor for helping my business.

Pros

Elementor has great useful tools such as; the drag and drop tool to build a website, use customizable templates to save time, customize the website to my own product style and coloring, easy and simple user interface, and good customer support.

Cons

I love all the tools and features in Elementor and I didn't face any missing tools or needed tools in Elementor to build a website. But I would love to see more new tools for building a website in upcoming versions.

### "We've tried half a dozen page builders and liked this one the best"

December 31, 2019

5.0

We've used Elementor on 4 different high-traffic sites now and it's worked quite well. We tried a ton of other page builders and this one came out to be the winner. The support experience has been just OK--we haven't had to use it much, but when we do they can't go as deep as we'd like.

Pros

Page builders for WordPress keep popping out of the woodwork. My team uses Elementor and chose it for our new WordPress sites because it provides complete theme editing (including headers and footers), dynamic content (including working with custom post types and custom fields). The functionality is great and the IU is gorgeous as well. It's fast and it gives you a full look at the actual design--no boxes or rough approximations. There are so many widgets that you'll able to find whatever you need, especially with the after-market add-ins and templates.

Cons

The CSS and JS that are loaded are pretty heavy. It's absolutely essential that you get some sort of optimization plugin to deal with the extra number of requests created for a simple page, especially if you're using it everywhere on your site with a custom header. I also don't like that there's no "lifetime" option--the product is fairly expensive if you have to buy it every year, vs. just paying once for a theme that has lifetime updates. Still, it can replace a ton of other plugins, so that's a huge benefit and cost savings if you don't have to buy a handful of other widgets.

### "Elementor is easy and complete"

April 8, 2023

5.0

I particularly love elementor, and I don't always use the number of templates it has, however they provide me with design ideas, the animations it has seem quite useful to give dynamism to web pages in seconds.

Pros

Elementor allows you to create great websites in seconds, just by dragging and dropping the objects, you can instantly see the changes and how it would be displayed in real time. It has a large number of free and pro templates, which make the job easy. It is very intuitive to use, and has several configuration and adaptation options for each object.

Cons

Sometimes it can take a while to load the web page, it depends on the number of elements it has, in some updates it has presented incompatibility with other plugins on the web page that make updating difficult.

### "I used to hate WYSIWYG builders ..."

March 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

Elementor – and Elementor Cloud Websites, in particular – has changed my tune on WYSIWYG WordPress builders. We'd worked with a competitor for years, but the code bloat slowed down both our workflows and our sites. A switch to Gutenberg worked out, but caused a bunch of development challenges. Elementor, circa 2022, is rock solid – building sites from kits rather than overwrought themes gives WordPress a breath of fresh air ... the kind we were only getting from Webflow lately.

Cons

Elementor is hyper-flexible and hyper-deep. That means you need a fair bit of training to make it do what you need.

### "The best page/site builder for WordPRess"

June 27, 2019

5.0

Elementor is great to work with. It has a lean learning curve, a huge and helpful community, and there are add-ons for just about anything you'd need. Its features are great for marketing purposes too (popups, forms, sticky elements, etc.), making it a great choice for landing pages too.

Pros

Besides being a fantastic page builder with a lean learning curve, I mostly like the huge community that has formed around Elementor. There's an entire "ecosystem" developed around Elementor: there are so many fantastic add-ons developed by the community and even themes developed specifically for Elementor

Cons

The loading speed of pages built with Elementor is often bigger than some other page builders, such as Oxygen Builder. I feel like this area could be improved, so that Elementor does not load scripts and styles of elements that are not inserted on the page. While it may not build the fastest pages (in terms of the loading speed due to page size), it does a much better job than most of its competition (Divi builder, WP Bakery Page builder, etc.).

Reason for choosing Elementor

Elementor is free and feature-rich. I tested it in its early days and it was just better than its competition. The Pro add-on is definitely worth it too.

### "The best Plugin for Creating Professional Websites"

April 1, 2020

5.0

Before Elementor plugin I was creating pages using simple WordPress Default editor. But now my Web development life has been changed. Because now I design pages of my websites using the Elementor. Because this plugin allow me to build the webpage according to my requirements. My experience with Elementor is really awesome, because I have created a number of sites using this plugin and I also use this plugin in the websites of my clients. I am really happy with Elementor.

Pros

With Elementor you can build professional and beautiful web pages. There are lots of elements in Elementor plugin, just drag and drop them in your pages and then edit the content according to your own content. You can divide the rows into different sections, and then in each section you can add images, text, videos, html shortcodes and lots of other useful content elements. The interface of this plugin is really easy to use and understand. You can see your webpage along with the options of this plugin. So just use the elements, edit the content and build a professional website.

Cons

There are two options in this plugin, free and pro. I think so in free plugin there should be some more options for the new users. Those new widgets can be very useful for the beginners.

### "Making Web Site Creation Easy"

July 28, 2020

5.0

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.

### "You can achieve really awesome things with Elementor "

August 12, 2019

4.0

My experience has been really good, I already recommended to many people and they are happy too. Even with the free version of Elementor was very happy so now with the Pro I am extremely satisfied.

Pros

I love the fact that Elementor offers free and paid version, I used the free version for several months before jumping to the paid plan, in this way you can really make sure you like the product and know what to expect from it. Using Elementor is easy, it take several days to understand how everything works and then you will be building sites in no time. Elementor let you customized some parts of the website that is not possible with most of the WP themes within some coding, such the header, footer, single post and archive. Being able to edit those parts give you the opportunity to have a standing site different from others.

Cons

The fact that they do not have ready to import demos, I mean entire sites, this would be super B. And I just wish they offer some more features so I would not need to use an elementor extension plugin to achieve something.

Reason for choosing Elementor

The feedback from the Wordpress community and the chance to test the product in the free version.

The learning curve takes some time but overall it is a game changer for creating a website without a programmer. It does slow your site speed down as well.

Elementor is great for those starting out with little technical skill and wanting to build a website. Most of the website can be completed without any coding adjustments required. I was able to create beautiful pages with many of the free templates provided.
