The individuals who ought to utilize Elementor Genius are individuals who are utilizing WordPress as the Substance The board Framework for their online business. In the event that you don't have Flourish Topics yet, or in the event that you are searching for a more viable answer for making wonderful and exceptionally changing over sites, at that point Elementor Master is an extraordinary alternative.
One of the most effortless WordPress Page Developers accessible today. It's useful. Limitless locales (counting customer sides) costs just $199/year. No coding or specialized information required.
You can just utilize this apparatus on WordPress empowered sites. Must be continually refreshed for security isues and updates. Less amazing than Flourish Topics.

I was recommended Elementor for its ease of use when building a Wordpress website. The user interface is easy to navigate when you could get it to actually load. It would time out my server constantly and required a heavy load to get it to work properly. This can be a great application for people who need to hand off a website to a client for them to use and change if they wish but to get it to work might be more problematic for the administrator/website builder than they want to deal with.
Elementor is a great WYSIWYG plugin for building Wordpress sites quickly and easily. You can literally drag and drop your content in a page easily and manipulate it within a certain set of parameters. It's great for first time users who might work best visually and not understand how some themes work in Wordpress. It's straight forward and not complicated to use.
I was recommended Elementor for ease of use and being a lightweight builder. It was slow. Painfully slow and broke more times than I care to remember. After much manipulation of my site, I managed to get the plugin to function properly enough for the end client to do what they wanted or needed. I can see this being a problem for someone just jumping into building a website that might not know how to manipulate certain core files in WordPress and they might take a chance at crashing their whole site. As far as the visual drag and drop aspect of it, perfect. For an administrative implementation its a pain and caused more problems than it was worth for me.

Terrific templates for websites and website sections, clean cut drag and drop functions, easy to use sections that can be moved up/down, modified, etc. Overall a very nice editor for the novice or for someone who has an idea for a webpage in mind and just needs to execute it.
This is minor but the integration can be unintuitive sometimes because once you open a webpage for editing, you have to make sure you are in the Elementor editor (which does not immediately show up). The Wordpress editor on first glance looks similar to the Elementor editor and the first few times I went in to edit, I used the Wordpress editor, was confused by the changes, and had to delete the page and start again using Elementor.

TOP TOP TOP, my sites are grateful!!
No words to describe such happiness in being able to enjoy this tool. No demagoguery, I don't lie, wow, I was in trouble to create professional pages for my sites. With very limited free tools. It was only when my business started to take off that I managed to get Elementor PRO. I'm just grateful to you. Super useful tool and endless creation possibilities.
I really have nothing against the tool, just sincere praise.

We started with a free version of Elementor and found that for our agency the price of an unlimited website subscription was worth it to bring these extra features to our clients. It helps us build beautiful websites more efficiently and that's always a win! They also have a good selection of third-party add-ons! The popularity of Elementor also helps because if you're experiencing a problem, you can likely Google and find a solution before needing to reach out to support!
Our agency currently holds a pro subscription for all websites that we build and we absolutely love it. It makes creating and editing a beautiful Wordpress website so much easier. Plus, there's good documentation so we can pass this along to clients if they want to edit their own website. I honestly wouldn't build a WP website without it!
I would say there is definitely a learning curve if you're new to Wordpress or new to the back end of a website. We normally do quick tutorials with new clients to teach them how to use it. We love Elementor because it is so robust with plenty of options. So a bit of a learning curve to new users is worth it!

This software is one of the best . It allowed me to create fancy looking websites . It's very user friendly . Youtube offers a lot of tutorials and so far has all the answers to all the questions i had . It works with word press . The drag and drop feature is amazing . I highly recommend this software
Elementor has very helpful features and functionality that can help anyone to design a custom web page. There are tons of tutorials on youtube . There are pre made templates that you can use and i was blown away with the end result . It's definitely user friendly and is well built in a way that I never experienced any glitches while using it . The best thing about it is that the templates are free . The drag and drop feature is awesome . It has a ton of integrations with third-party tools and makes the overall process of creating websites a breeze.
I don't have a lot of negative feedback because i did enjoy the software however the software can get pricey . If you want access to more features you have to pay a monthly fee . I would prefer a lifetime license. It also affect the website's ability to load fast . It would be nice if they can do more about that

Overall, I love it. I could not recommend another page builder before Elementor and I have tried my fair share of tools out there. I love love love it!
Elementor integrates quickly and easily with most any WordPress theme, and recently they launched their Hello Theme which integrates seamlessly and fully with Elementor site builder tools. The inclusion of multiple widgets from other plugins like Gravity Forms and being able to build out template pages makes Elementor a win-win for quick and seamless website design and development. Creation of Global assets and blocks has never been easier. Elementor also often adds updates and features on a monthly basis which makes the value for the tool so much higher. I recommend Elementor 100%!
Some of the tools can be cumbersome to learn and support or documentation isn't always geared to the thing I am trying to do. There is a good community to help, but I feel like tutorials could be a bit better. Sometimes updates can break sites, so better QC on updates need to be considered.

Elementor is a must have for web designers using Wordpress. It provides so much flexibility in regards to page layouts, templates and theme stylings.
If the site is not properly designed, Elementor can cause slow websites, lots of DOM elements and general slugginess.

It's been great from the start! It is easy to pick up and learn if you are transitioning from another platform. Supports all major features and functionality you would expect from an enterprise theme. The template library is overflowing with incredible templates.
We needed to migrate and rebuild a single page web application while finding a new platform that would provide a rich content management experience. Elementor proved to be a perfect fit for us. We were having a difficult time finding the right theme that could provide that rich content-authoring experience but also be 100% flexible to support the customizations we planned to implement. Elementor will allow you to customize your site in any way you can imagine without having to compromise on the content editor experience.
The only thing i can say i wish was a little different was the licensing arrangement. I would prefer to pay a little more for a lifetime/unlimited domain license.

Elementor helps me create amazing websites and helps me sell my digital products. I love how easy it is to create amazing websites with Elementor.
For me, Elementor is the best website builder in the world. It is simple and easy to use. A drag and drop builder with several ready-made templates. It makes managing my business so much easier and faster. Elementor lets you customize anything on a website. It has very advanced editing elements. Which is great.
It could have more high converting website templates for digital marketing, such as a sales page for example. Sometimes I have trouble getting the site the way I would like it on mobile.

Very happy to be able to build a professional looking wordpress site without knowing how to code.
Makes Wordpress as easy to use as alternatives like Webflow and Squarespace so you get all the advantages of an open platform. The free version makes it easy to get started and you'll quickly see its worth the paid version.
It can take a bit of practice to understand how to use the UI but its the same with squarespace and webflow.

For $50 bucks a year I can do almost everything myself that I was paying $300 a month for. It really does make a good looking site with very little knowledge of web design needed.
This software gives me the ability to do the edit and updates to my site whenever I want to. It allows quite a bit of customization and effects without having to dive in to deep.
There are some steep learning curves for some of the features that are not documented well. It is also seems to make the site a little less responsive and slower loading. It has also been difficult to sync it up with my CRM software to automate lead captures.

My journey with Elementor started a few years ago when one of my clients asked me to write a review for a page builder named Elementor. I used other page builders before and I thought that it’s just another page builder. Totally wrong! Elementor is genuinely a page builder! First of all, Elementor doesn’t require any coding skills. It’s true, many other page builders do the same, but Elementor really...
Elementor works slowly from time to time. I am aware that countless lines of code are behind Elementor, but not all the users are so patient like I am.

Using Elementor to build a site helps my clients. The builder is very user friendly and once the site is set up they can make a lot of their edits themselves.
Elementor is a great way to quickly set up a website for a client. It has a lot of the bells and whistles so you don't need to add as many plugins.
Sometimes they release an update to the software a bit too early. I have learned to wait before updating because sometimes there are security issues. The good news is that they patch them and notify you quickly.

I've built ten pages with the page builder so far.
Forms. The forms block is robust, precludes the need for other form plugins, and appears to be increasing and improving form functionality. Also: Increased compatibility with other plugins and themes.
Some page builder features (expample: tabs blocks) are not as customizable as they could be. Tabs I wouldn't use without more customizability. I see their template library is growing but it needs to grow a lot more. Also the templates should have more advanced controls for developers.

Just perfect. It's simple to convert the design from Figma to WordPress, when using Elementor + Elementor Pro.
It's needless to talk about Elementor. This is the plugin that we found interesting in its beginnings, and we started using it. By now, Elementor has improved to the point that it allows you to control every aspect of your website.
It would be awesome if Elementor could improve the load time, and make the plugin more lightweight. Also, a white-label plugin for Elementor (for source code too) would be something that would make a lot of designers switch from other page builders. Also, add more trendy elements to the Pro version.

Elementor allows me to create web pages very quickly, both with widgets and templates, so I can focus on other tasks.
Even in the free version, it brings many features and allows you to create complete pages, even if additional plugins are sometimes needed. In the PRO version it is amazing, it has almost everything you need to make professional websites very quickly and lots of inspiring templates.
I get worried when I have to make updates. Sometimes it feels like it hasn't been tested enough and it's not uncommon for crashes to start happening right after the update.

Of all the drag and drop website creation tools that I have tried, Elementor has the most options for customizing designs. With many drag and drop editors, you are limited by the platforms design restrictions. Elementor also offers many professional looking pre-made templates. The best templates are offered to Pro (paid) users. However, Elementor also has many free pre-made content blocks that can be used to build out web pages. Elementor is a plugin so it is used in conjunction with a WordPress theme. But, Elementor recently added the Canvas layout which will override any WordPress theme. The Canvas option gives you even more control over the layout and design of your website.
By far the biggest negative with Elementor is the menu options. If you are using the Canvas template, you’ll need to place a menu widget unto your website. You can use the default WordPress menu BUT it reverts to appearing as an unordered list. The only workaround I found was to place the menu items into a HTML widget and to style it using CSS. This is not ideal for a product that is supposed to be...

Use this for all my projects. There is no WYSIWYG editor that compares. Also because it's so popular there has been a top of extensions that have been created for it which have a whole TON of additional widgets. Along with not only the various widgets but also the various coding plugins like Dynamic.ooo I would make the argument that we are in an age where people can create dyanmic complex websites without knowing one lick of code (I'm a developer myself but I find I write very little code to get what I want with this). They're always expanding and adding new features yet it never feels like bloat.
No cons really that I can think of - compared to others like Visual Composer this thing knocks it out of the park by a mile.

Using this software really helped to speed up the design/creation of my websites. Hand-coding too so long. It's so easy to style for all devices too.
This is by far the easiest template builder to use with Wordpress. It is super easy to add your own css etc if needed too. Customer Services have answered any queries I've had in very good time too. Highly recommend this.
I am struggling to think of anything negative with this software. Maybe sometimes a client may ask for a 'special feature' on a site that isn't within the scope of Elementor, but there is usually a 3rd party plugin to use.
