| Considered Both Products | Elementor  Oleksandr Torlo Product R&D Manager Chose Elementor We wanted to use WordPress and not depend on the Tilda with annual fees, so we installed wordpress and bought a template on Envato market, and the selected template already had a built-in Elementor, which I just tweaked to fit my needs. Also we don't want to learn a completely …  Michał Kuczek Programmer Chose Elementor In the wordpress environment Elementor is by far the best builder, there are new things coming to market like Breakdance, but their time is still to be decided in the future.

I feel like Elementor and WooCommerce are a lot easier to use than Shopify, and it doesn't come with such high fees. For our business, it was no choice! …  James Crook Business Coach at The Health Leader Co Chose Elementor 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.

Elementor provides more functionality and with a greater ease of use than its competitors.  Daniel Cetina Founder Chose Elementor 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  Kevin Carney Principle Chose Elementor I use Optimize Press on a business website. It has a conceptually similar WYSIWYG page builder. They provide a sales funnel capability with their theme, which is why I use them.  carlos ibarra Director Operaciones Chose Elementor Thrive leads and thrive architect is a pain to update, they've changed version and name in recent years.

Jason Rutel Creative Director & Owner Chose Elementor Before using Elementor we used Divi by Elegant Themes, and the biggest improvements are in load speed and reduced bloat. Elementor editor loads faster and makes web design a more enjoyable process. I would highly recommend Elementor over Divi. It’s also helpful that Elementor …  Gary Williams President & CEO Chose Elementor We've used everything from Divi to Brizy to Gutenberg and beyond. For us, Elementor ticks all the boxes. Though Divi has its fanbase, it doesn't allow a client to switch easily down the road whereas Elementor does. Divi and Elementor were our final two choices as we went …  Jeff Smith Owner Principal Chose Elementor I am not finding the builders that I have used in the past in the prepopulated area. The builders that we have used in the past include Divi, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Instapages, as well as the classic editor and Gutenberg. I will say that Beaver Builder is probably a close …  Daniel J. Canto Bonilla Senior Network Manager Chose Elementor I tried Visual Composer and Divvy and no one is at the level of Elementor.

But Joomla offered us better resources for generating content. Joomla is a CMS suitable for many types of projects, especially if you have several people editing content at the same time. Nuno Reis CIO (Chief Information Officer) Chose Joomla As a user, it is more than OK for those standard daily operations like publishing and editing or comment management. As a developer, I have a very different perspective. Joomla! is not my favorite platform. Only ready-to-use tools like Wix can be less friendly than having to …  Lonela Marinela Senior Product UX/UI Designer-Developer Chose Joomla There are many themes and other design assets for Joomla! we can use from paid and free libraries throughout the internet. WordPress on the other hand is also very good and useful, comparatively Joomla! offered more features and at a better price.
