Also overall in the entire web builder category, Elementor is unbeatable, having the power of WordPress … Incentivized Helpful? NL Nathan Littleton Director Chose Elementor I prefer it to most of them because it's cost effective and I really like WordPress a really good feature base to build websites on. Bricks is WP-based too, but I find Elementor easier to use. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Elementor We initially chose WYSIWUG web builder as the key platform for all website development projects. While we still rate the product almost an 8.5/10, we found much better SEO (Search engine optimization) outcomes through wordpress and accordingly migrated to the same. Going … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Elementor Bricks and Divi Incentivized Helpful? Rachel Garwood Social Media and Web Developer Chose Elementor Elementor is a bit of a different platform than, say, easyTithe, Robly, and Apptivo, but it is comparable to Shopify.

RB Randall Benson Digital Marketing Manager Chose Elementor I have used the built-in Gutenberg content builder and Visual Composer before. Neither of these are truly "front-end" page builders.

Verified User Anonymous Chose Elementor Before Elementor, I developed our site using the WordPress plugin Divi.

User Testimonials
	Elementor	ManageWP
Likelihood to Recommend	I would recommend this for the ease of use and price. It is a good value for any website developer or designer to be able to create multiple websites a year with super simple coding. If you've got a way to speed up your website without using WP Rocket, then it's even better! I think this software is specifically made for someone with a coding background and would recommend that you have a background with Wordpress to make using this software even easier Incentivized IS Isabel Sam Owner Read full review	It is well suited to anyone that has a Wordpress website, whether it be an individual or a company managing multiple clients sites, its an easy way to manage, maintain and keep your website running smoothly and secure. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Theme builder (header, footer, site parts) Forms, with options for what to do with form submissions after they've been submitted (email, collect , push to EMS) Easy to use widgets for things that would otherwise need coding manually (sliders, carousels, flip boxes etc.) Pre-built templates Dynamic conditions for content display Incentivized NL Nathan Littleton Director Read full review	ManageWP consolidates important WordPress site management services into on dashboard. ManageWP makes backing up, cloning, and restoring websites so easy. ManageWP provides a simple, easy to use interface. Incentivized Matthew Lundh Cofounder Read full review
Cons	Could definitely use an AI bot for ad-hoc customer queries Very limited Wdgets available in free version - If you have complex pages, go pro Ensure robust internet speed (50 MBPS bare minimum) to be able to operate it. Below 8 GB RAM is not advised Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	The reports could be prettier, more templates in order to avoid having to customize for each client so heavily. It would be nice to see if recommended plugin updates are actually production and not beta versions. Incentivized Gary Williams President & CEO Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Elementor is critical to our ongoing success and providing our clients with world-class websites Incentivized David Victorine Lead Developer Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	Elementor is one of those website builders that is really easy to get started with. The drag and drop features make it easy to create attractive and creative webpages for even the non-website designer. Some of the features available are not easy to find or easy to discover when you first start using Elementor. Practice makes perfect. Incentivized Ayo Bamgbose Assoc CIPD MSc Online digital business coach Read full review	It's very straightforward for basic use, but less you dig in more for advanced use. Seems like it would be approachable to the average person. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	There support is slow and at times can be frustrating and this is why many prefer to air out their frustrations within the Facebook group community. I tend to give up as when I'm working on something and something goes wrong I need the help straight away. I do not have the patience to wait anymore. Incentivized Ayo Bamgbose Assoc CIPD MSc Online digital business coach Read full review	No answers on this topic
Implementation Rating	The business team has to stick to its core competencies - Our key turning point occured when we delegated webpage design challenges to a tech. firm with specific mandates (including a certain degree of internal control). Once the initial go-live was completed, the agency trained us on internalizing ad-hoc and tactical change work Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Compared to other providers, Elementor can be easy to use and learn, allowing you to build professional websites in a fraction of the time it takes to build websites with other sites. The AI feature can help non-tech people to easily understand and build a website that is SEO and Google search compliant. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	ManageWP is definitely the best in class product for WordPress website management. There are other tools such as InfiniteWP that do similar things, but don't have as complete an offering. Other options like WPEngine are also for hosting and we are not interested in that element. I think that ManageWP is the best tool out there for what it does. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Our sales have really grown over the past five years of using Elementor. We went from fulfilling less than five orders a month to now 10-15 per months. And we are a small bulk food store with a small audience. We have been able to add plug ins along with Elementor to customize our products, store, and pages. We haven't done as much with SEO and Elementor. I feel like this is one area that we could probably do better. Incentivized Rachel Garwood Social Media and Web Developer Read full review	Reduced update times - allows me to check for updates on all our sites once a week without spending countless time logging in and updating each one manually. Free backups - allows me to have redundant backups just in case other systems fail, without any effort. Free platform - many of the provided features are free, making it very useful for companies who want to keep costs low. Incentivized Darien Chaffart Associate Pastor Read full review
