Divi vs. DNN Platform

Divi is great if you build multiple websites for clients; however, I'm not sure it is cost-effective if you only make a single site.

DNN [Platform] is great for organizations of any size who wish to have a robust CMS to manage their site. DNN is not ideal for a small site that is better suited to a super easy to user interface such as Wix. DNN [Platform] is plenty strong enough for enterprises and large entities.

• Very easy to use CMS - Ease of use is paramount with CMS products to minimise on support calls. Also the template structure of pages ensures that content editors cannot inadvertently corrupt the layout of the page.
• Powerful application framework - The existence of APIs for all functionality within the CMS provides limitless scope in terms of developing bespoke applications which sit within the CMS.
• Commercially supported option available - For larger clients, the comfort factor of having a direct line to the developers of the application is a big selling point.

• The load time of the builder could be faster. On some websites it takes a long time to load, and may crash the page. (I believe they've said they're working on this stability issue.)
• Warnings on updates if they're difficult for some sites to run. I have one website that has crashed more than once from Divi's theme updates. I always back it up before the update so I restore the site, but this is still a bit of an inconvenience.
• Integrated (or more clearly marked) tutorials within the builder. I migrate site maintenance and ownership to clients after the site is complete and some could use refreshers within the builder on what happens where i.e. the difference between a section, row, module.

• Out of the box, it has some modules, but not enough unless you do a paid version.
• The support is a bit slow.
• The menuing can be confusing and terms used a bit strange. which makes training difficult.

Divi is overall a great tool to use - I think I would need to spend a little more time to dig into the tool to provide more long term feedback.

I find Elementor very clunky and find Divi much more intuitive.

Also we purchased a lifetime license for Divi and can use it on unlimited websites, while Elementor there is a yearly subscription per site

My experience with Joomla! was over six years ago so a lot could have changed. However, I prefer DNN over Joomla because DNN offers more modules and a better administration user interface.

Incentivized

• Higher conversion rate
• Theres no needed more tools
• Ive got rid of a CTA tool since with Divi i can make them. Is not that easy, but is functional

• DNN helps us win bids on projects through the improvements the community has done over the past few years; we were ready to scrap it all together but it has made great strides
• DNN's community has come back and is actively working to improve and expand the capabilities of the cms
• on a negative note, the confusion between evoq and dnn has caused us headaches
