I'm overall pleased with Elementor. I've used it for countless businesses, and taught it in the classroom as well. Compared to other front-end builders out there, this is a clear winner for building WordPress sites. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I've built well over 50 websites with elementor, if not closer to 100, and the value for this builder continues to improve every year. A pro license is well worth the cost and provides you excellent templates, as well as the ability to save your own templates and create faster workflows for building websites. The ability to now use their cloud templates also is a welcomed improvement over the previous export and "paste from another site" options. #### Cons My only gripe with elementor is around their image optimization plugin currently always being pushed even inside the builder. The other weak spot in the builder is the ability to view revision history, this could be improved upon greatly. Lastly, setting those viewport sizes. Give people a 4k viewport template. We get so many clients who go to review an elementor project on 4k and we end up having to sink much more time into making the desktop view 4k friendly. #### Reasons for switching to Elementor Initially for page load speed improvement. #### Vendor response Hello David, Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review, and for trusting Elementor across so many projects. We’re glad to know that features like templates, cloud saving, and faster workflows are making a difference for you.

I like the fact that Elementor is a code-free wordpress page builder that offers a wide array of free CSS templates. #### Cons Exporting themes and templates from elsewhere sometimes clash which forces me to use the ones built-in. --- ### Nothing comes close for a visual no code builder in Wordpress - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Paul T. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Never thought I'd be able to produce the kind of websites I have with a no code solution and such inexpensive tools as Elementor running on top of Wordpress. I use a lot of freelancers and it's wide adoption also makes it easy to outsource certain aspects of the work. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros There's a lot of these visual editing tools available both for Wordpress and elsewhere. For me, nothing comes close to Elementor for it's ease of use (once you've learned it a bit) for the price. #### Cons It has a bit of a learning curve. Some elements take a bit longer to 'get' than others but the learning tools available from Elementor and the community are great. #### Vendor response Hi Paul, thank you so much for sharing your experience!

No incentive was offered Overall, Elementor helps me to design websites rapidly and professionally. It provides a wonderful editing experience and helps users to achieve quality results. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros In my career, I tried a few website builders for WordPress, and among all, Elementor stands out and so far it's my first recommendation for users who are looking for a fast-forward web builder to help hone and fasten their skills. I prefer Elementor because of its user-friendly interface and drag-and-drop functionality. Its extensive design options and pre-designed templates help to speed up the web design process as I can simply import the templates and customize them as per my liking and there is no need to write custom HTML or CSS codes as the plugin is already programmed to render elements visually appealing in the frontend. Another advantage of using Elementor is that the plugin takes up almost 60% of the media query and provides options for designers to manually adjust the remaining 40. The containers use Flexbox by default with predefined CSS values which I find extremely helpful and time-saving. I also get to achieve a lot more with third-party extensions such as droit addons, MailChimp, Gsap, and others. Most precisely, the Gsap plugin seamlessly integrated with Elementor to provide advanced animation functionalities to the websites which make them highly interactive and can highly boost user experience as well. #### Cons Even though I find Elementor helpful and advanced in designs, however, it depends on third-party extensions for more extendability and since its core functionalities are somewhat limited, I'm forced to install one or several extensions depending on what I want to achieve and in the end, they turn to affect the site loading speed. So, it would be better if Elementor could properly evaluate the benefits users get from third-party extensions and try to incorporate them in the core plugin, that way, users like myself won't have to increase server workload with third-party extensions especially as some of them might be well coded or optimized. #### Reasons for switching to Elementor Wix serves its purposes however, I personally find it limited in terms of functionality and design capabilities. Visual composer on the other hand can be user-friendly and hard to work with at the same time. User-friendly in the sense that if you're used to working static HTML templates, then it won't be a great deal but for someone who is fully frontend like myself -it's challenging. --- ### The best Wordpress Website Builder - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Steve H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

Over more than five years I have built over 60 websites using Elementor and my customers are always impressed. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It comes with so many features that allow the configuration of web design and structure with minimal effort #### Cons Very little as the years have gone by they continue to add elements that users request. #### Reasons for switching to Elementor User to use and more features built into the package --- ### Elementor for Web Design Pros - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mark W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

It gives us the freedom to create unique websites comparable to fully developed html/css websites but within a website builder's software. #### Cons Elementor forms does not offer conditional logic.

Is nice that I have some templates to choose from for a design and customize it after my needs in order to save time and money. As a builder, Elementor is not heavy on the WordPress setup and is compatible with plugins for SEO and cache I use. #### Cons All great widgets and features are available on the pro version. --- ### Website Builder and Hosting Provider of this Era - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ngozi A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Arts and Crafts - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

No incentive was offered It's a great tool for builder complex and advanced websites #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Elementor is my favorite web builder for WordPress. I like it because it empowers me with assets to bring my designs to life.It is easy to use in WordPress and supports several third-party tools that I use on a regular basis. With Elementor I can fully customize and manage my website features like branding, responsiveness, and animations.It allows me to add my own lines of code wherever I need to. I can also save time by exporting my settings and reusing them on other projects.Another thing that I really like about this tool is its affordability. The plans are very affordability respective to its performance and user advantages. With a single license, I can use it on many websites and this helps me manage customers' projects with ease.I also like how simple it is to use external components for animations like the GSAP plugin which can easily associate with Elementor to add more engaging features on my websites. #### Cons A feature that I would like to see getting improved is the "page title" option. Normally when disabled, the page title should be displayed but sometimes I still see a page title showing even after I've hidden it.Another thing that I would love to see being improved in Elementor is " Feature annotation". Some features like those in the container can quite be difficult to understand. It would be better if, for the most important features, there were info notices when hovering over them that briefly explain what they are and what can be achieved with them.The info should be written in a simple language that will enable users of all intellectual backgrounds to easily grasp them. --- ### Elementos is the best page constructor drag drop - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Aguinaldo B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Design - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

I was a writer when I started using Elementor. I loved it at first. When I launched my own agency, my go-to was the Astra theme with Elementor. I don’t even know how many sites I built anymore. It really was a beautiful thing. Now I’m the in-house head of digital marketing for a company. My boss insisted I use another theme and host with Elementor. It’s been nothing but problems. Elements are glitchy, don’t work, or don’t display right on mobile. Their support chat almost always escalates to tier 2, which will only communicate by email with the main email on your account - not ideal for teams. Recently, they released a version that corrupted my site. They admitted it was a known bug, but of course, I didn’t get the email because it went to my boss. I rolled back on my own, but didn’t shut off the updates because I didn’t think Elementor would release something that totally breaks sites. When it happened again, I tried to restore and my site went to all 400 pages. I tried again and it went to all 500 pages. Then it came back on its own, but was still glitchy and unusable. For a week, I was in contact with their support. No resolution. I eventually gave in and tried a third restore. My site’s been stuck in restore mode for two days for a task that should have taken 20 minutes. Support just keeps telling me to wait. That’s literally what tier 2 tells me every time. They will not escalate it higher. Nobody will put me in contact with anyone higher or a manager. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros When it works, it makes WordPress sites as easy to work with as Wix, SquareSpace, or Weebly. My favorite theme (Astra) builds with Elementor, so I can build a very nice customized site in about a day despite not being a developer. #### Cons It’s buggy. Elements, like the typing/ animated text were released even though they don’t display properly. They were left buggy for forever (many months). I’m not even sure they’re working right now. Oftentimes, things don’t display right on mobile either. Their latest update broke my site. I didn’t realize it was Elementor’s fault, so I left updates on. Two weeks later, it broke my site again. Pair that with their shoddy hosting that’s often down and crummy tech support/ customer service and it’s a recipe for disaster. I wasted so much time going between Elementor and the theme’s developer with each blaming the other for things not working during the build. I don’t know how many things i scrapped or how many times I changed direction because things just weren’t working right. --- ### Elementor from a Person who is not techie - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Debbie N. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.
