Overall Satisfaction with Elementor

We use Elementor as the theme design layer of WordPress websites that we build for ourselves and clients. We have chosen to use it because it has professional-level options for us as designers and developers, but it is simple enough for us to be able to hand over to the client to make changes if and when they want to. It is easy to use, very visual, and gives access to the settings that proper designers want to use.

Pros

  • Visual design for WordPress themes
  • Easy to drag-and-drop content elements
  • Comes with good pre-made themes
  • Access to advanced settings for front-end devs

Cons

  • Some specific features like slideshows, if you want a very customised experience it has to be manually created
  • Some 3rd-party themes that are built on Elementor lose compatibility after updates if they're not well made
  • It requires an extra layer of support because it's not a core part of WordPress
  • Better design - means more clients
  • Faster design - means less wages
  • Safety for client - so they're more comfortable to buy
It's designed as a very easy way to visually edit web pages, and it works really well for that.
We've used Divi and Enfold as well, both of those have a similar goal for visual editors and usability and work well - but Elementor feels more polished and has great support.

It has professional-level options for us as designers and developers, but it is simple enough for us to be able to hand over to the client to make changes if and when they want to. It is easy to use, very visual, and gives access to the settings that proper designers want to use.
