Divi vs. NVU

Divi has cornered the market on a simple, straightforward WordPress theme that gives some major integrations and functions! Now that I've worked within it for years, I have a much better understanding of how robust a system it is. It takes some practice to get accustomed to but once you "get" it, it is so fun to use. I've shown so many small business owners how to use Divi and I feel that it is much easier to learn than other themes with functions that are controlled by coding or shortcodes. I could play in Divi all day, and some days I do, depending on which projects I am working on at the time

NVU is an easy self explanatory program that helps us edit the Landing Pages for the company for which I work. However, many of the features of being able to edit text & text boxes is out of date & very jumpy. I often have to rewrite sentences in order to fit better on a line because I can't adjust the text box without it messing up the entire Landing Page.

Incentivized

• Ease of use
• Available elements
• Customization possibilities
• Access to pre-made resources

• It allows me to easily create the Landing Pages for my company. I can easily create a copy of an NVU file & then rename it in order to create a new file. Then once I've made the necessary changes to the new file, I just drag & drop the new file into our backend to automatically upload to our site.
• It allows me to edit text fairly easily. I can drag & drop the text within a text box.

Incentivized

• SEO integration is not the best
• Divi AI image generation can be improved
• for some good modules (divi add ons) a licence need to be purchased

• I can't widen a text box without it jumping & messing up the entire Landing Page.
• I can't drag text from one text box into another.
• The text settings change if I don't copy a word that already exists in a word box & paste it into the new line of text before starting to type a new sentence.
• Sometimes I try to open a Landing Page to edit it & it says that NVU is unavailable & I have to close the program & try again.

Divi price is superior and the infinite sites feature got me. Thrive was good for me at some point, but they got stuck in their layout options. Even i liked the Thrive form builder, in general Divi gave me more options to build my websites and build my landing pages. If they work on their interaction with other apps like Mailchimp or Hubspot, for example, or make the tool even more intuitive, i would give them 10 in everything.

• It has allowed us to grow our web design business. Today we have an entire independent team that's focused on design and delivery. Production has gone up 40% and and revenue has increased.

• I think my boss has actually decided to stop using NVU to create & edit our webpages because of it's lack of updates & features for editing text.
• It takes me a lot of time trying to adjust text boxes to get them to fit on the Landing Page correctly with the entire desired content.
