BEST Page Builder for WordPress? | Elementor vs. Divi vs. WPBakery

[@larrymannino444]

Great review, thanks. I've been a lifetime member of Elegant Themes (Divi) since before there was a Divi - used to be a growing collection of themes to choose from. For the money, the updates, the logical color coded and consistent ease of use, and excellent customer service, I think they're terrific. Also, as far as your comments on the back back end builder not revealing content, actually as you choose modules, within the first settings tab (there are usually three), there's an Admin Label that you fill out with whatever description you'd like which then shows the content when looking at the general builder view, and makes it really simple to keep your projects easy to manage - just an fyi there. Keep up the good work!

[@CliffLawrence7]

This guy just knows what content we're looking for!

[@Carolina-rd3gh]

Divi sounds like the best long-term deal in pricing and the interface looks like a blast to use. I would probably choose that one.

[@Craylor]

That's the secret! Divi is great for long term value 😎

[@Lensbreak]

How much can you trust such a license model? I feel more safe with elementor who can keep afford to hire new staff to improve the product, whereas divi may just dry out at some point and gets discontinued over night? (we had seen this happening in the past, didnt we..)

Great review! I've used all 3 and prefer Divi for simple websites and Elementor for more complex websites. WP Bakery is too old school as it was one of the first editors I've ever used years and years ago back when it was Visual Composer.

[@aliceyusuf9961]

can you give me example of complex website ?

[@taneesescu]

Visual Composer is still around. WPBakery is like the page builder and VC is the theme

[@RosembergLozano]

Hello from Colombia, I thought that WpBakery in Spanish was a visual composer xD I love Wpbakery because it has the option to save the Html code that is generated and then saves it to implement them in other web pages, this is useful for designers and recycling many designs, do you have the option to copy the design code?

[@losbrowndogs]

Solid key points at the end. Thanks for creating thte video.

[@lorimast]

I've been using Elementor for a couple years now. My theme came with Bakery, but I hated it! Elementor is so much easier to learn, and lets you do a few things in code as you learn. I'd like to upgrade, but haven't yet.

[@Craylor]

Nice! I'd absolutely agree that Elementor is easier to learn and use.

[@DianaMJoice]

I will go with Elementor free to test it first. I've been using visual composer and WPBakery for over 5 years and I love the backend functionality. There are quite a few themes that are built with WPBakery, as "THE7" theme. Thank you for your comparison. It made it easy for me to decide whether to change to another, more easy and time saving editor. I'll give Elementor a go. Thank you!

[@itzanopinion]

Thrive Themes + Thrive Architect is my go to choice for pages/funnels and everything in between! :)

[@spiderman8632]

100% agree with all your points! Divi is my choice

[@bySterling]

SO true about WP Bakery having a Solid backend foundation (unlike the shaky resource hog Elementor) and YES Salient continues to improve years later and shows how insanely modern and dynamic and easy to make sites look! I’ve combined my fav theme w Elementor a handful of times and they are a great compliment if a front end design setup is better for certain builds. 🙌🏻🎉🖥️💻🎉👏🏻

[@brilliantwebstorage202]

I like Elementor for ease of use especially for when i pass the site to a cleint. i like visual composer if i will be doing extended amount of work cause it has more custom functionalities, and havent tried divi or wp bakery. overally i think elementor is the easiest to pick up but visual composer intrigues me alot

[@jnny7182]

Great review ! Glad u mentioned the pop up

[@SerafEnd]

Dude... Seriously?! I was just googling all of this that you mentioned, what a coincidence!!

[@Craylor]

Wow, that's nuts! Thanks for watching 😎

[@DaJyzor]

I would love to see a video on Zion Builder. I am trying to move from Elementor because it is slowing down my website. And optimizing Elementor to get a decent google speed score is a nightmare. Divi and WPBakery have the same problem.

[@laylathecat]

What can someone do to avoid this issue? I was thinking of going with Kinsta and building my website with Divi, but don't want a slow website.

[@Lensbreak]

Using WPBakery since years and with a proper Cache Plugin (I usually use Speedlite cache with a proper speedlite server) and you aint have any issue with speed even with more complex design. Just avoid Revolution Slider and those heavy chunky plugins.

[@WeirdSnakeGal]

I've been looking at builders and it's hard to decide which one to use. Right now, I don't want to continue with Elementor, even though it's awesome and give a lot of functions, it seems to be one of the worst for page speed. I'm trying to redo my brothers website with Gutenberg on the Kadence theme and it's not bad but I feel it still is quite limited and making the website stand out seems harder. Divi seems amazing in terms of pricing and usage but it seems to perform poorly speed wise. I am looking into livecanvas as it is one of the best in terms of speed, however you have to be familiar with HTML and CSS. I'm also wondering what the limitations are as I want to create beautiful modern and dynamic websites, not just something that looks like it's been made by a 8yr old. What's your opinion on that? I haven't looked into Zion as it seems to not perform as well as some other.

[@DaJyzor]

@@WeirdSnakeGal did you tried the latest version ? 3.0 ? There are no limitations with Zion Builder in fact I find it the most flexible of them all.

[@garyshadle2626]

I'm always able to easily get a 99% page speed score with Divi. Have not figured out how to do that with Elementor or WPBakery though. The one thing I do like about WP Bakery is the modules it has available. It provides more unique features such as animated pie charts, etc. I wish Divi would incorporate these.

[@DrunkDelilahBrewery]

Can I ask a really newbie question please. I have a site that I use Wordpress for and currently use the Vantage Template. Are there any eas ways to design a page that is picture based but contains some information that is able to be updated via table or something. For example, I would like to list the beers I have on tap at home as a graphic, but I would like to update the details from within the site as opposed to just changing the picture / graphic each time the beer line up changes? ta

[@wva609]

Great review. Thank you! Very helpful.

[@YasmineLivesLife]

I have a paid Wordpress blog I am using a paid theme as well.... how do i say this .... there feels something off about it ... Like i cant get it to feel like how i want it be.I feel so overwhelmed that i have committed myself to learning front end web design and UI/UX design. My question is: Is it worth it to invest in a web builder as a small blogger? i have 2 other blogs too. Thanks in advance

[@tegacreatives1673]

What do you think about brizy

[@tonybowen455]

This is so good. I'm shocked by the low views and sub count. I subbed!

[@Craylor]

Thanks Tony!

[@omararizona]

Well wonderful video again took a lot of information but nobody has on KZbin and no one is going to appreciate unless they have actually tried building a WordPress site and they know the difference. So I guess what I'm saying the chef in the kitchen should know his viewers so they can be part of his ingredients I suggest you start with your fans and ask them what work press think that you have built that you are proud of or what website Do people find interesting because there's a big gap between those people who know this stuff and most people who are comfortable at their Facebook page while going to be making this transition into owning a website having a brand which is where all the money is. So they need to be a mass conversion from regular folks forget the old friend and build their own sites and this is probably one of the biggest argument I've been having with myself after going through the WordPress experience I have a blog and I also have a site but the site is a major project and the blog is a personal project so I have a lot to say on the subject. Let me give you the site that I'm talking about on my next comment.

[@Craylor]

Thanks Omar! I always love hearing viewer feedback and getting thoughts about what content you might be looking for going forward. What has been your experience with WordPress? What is your biggest pain point?

[@jesus.moreno]

awesome tutorial ... very well explained!!

[@jordangarcia9748]

Th;and you your video was very helpful

[@techycompute3636]

I like Gutenberg

[@Craylor]

Nice! Do you use Gutenberg for building complete websites, or just for blog posts? I do enjoy the simplicity of Gutenberg for blogging.

[@wjckc79]

@@Craylor I'm a little late to the party, but with the addition of Otter Blocks Pro, Gutenberg is quite robust. That said, I need more. I came here (among other comparison reviews) to settle on something more advanced. I have decided to go with Divi.

[@didimtoday]

Divi is the best always and good price! Elementor is expensive and poor!! Basic boxed layout not available with elementor even!!

[@eflwebdesign5233]

Hey, I like your videos and appreciate you teaching me a lot earlier this year. I also like how you show a bit of your drums in your website, so we learn more about you. Could you please make a video on your process for client web design? I see on your website it said that you are pretty much booked, not sure if that means you are on client projects....? Maybe not. But I am very interested to see how you handle that process. Best, Nick
