Overall Satisfaction with Elementor

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We created a previous website. Elementor is great, website looked clean and organized, but the problem comes when you need to add some plugins from wordpress that are not included in Elementor. In our experience, SEO plugins and also, the size of the images were making our website to take longer to load, and it was something that we couldn't fix with Elementor. If Elementor had it's own place to build the site, like Squarespace or Wix, I think they will be doing better.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Website builder
Templates

Cons

Transitions between mobile and desktop. For us, there was always a misplace with that
Freedom to move things around the template

Return on Investment

We had to switch to another provider. Our Bounce rate was very high and, in our experience, there was no way to solve it.

Usability

Because it didn't meet our expectations, so after a year we ended up switchng to a different provider. The part that so many plugins are needed is not confortable for us to use, beacuse after any adjustment, everything needs to be revised and checked again, because of the plugins. So, for us, any update to the site or new pages, take too long to be published

Alternatives Considered

Squarespace, Wix and GoDaddy

Actually, we switch to Squarespace after working with Elementor for a year. Squarespace is giving us best results and more freedom to make changes or add new stuff to the site

Likelihood to Recommend

After publishing the website, and after following all Elementor videos, training and recommendations, there was still things missing. In our experience, it's really hard to get to a 100% of cpompletion, there's always room to improve. Also, for us, after making a website with lots of photos, and graphics, the site takes too long to load, so you need to get plugins from other sources and that's not something that we enjoy doing
