Elementor Pro Review – What You Should Know
In this factful (and hopefully tactful) in-depth Elementor Pro review, I’ll first assess the free Elementor plugin, followed by the Elementor Pro plugin: what extra features will it give you? Is Elementor Pro worth it?
Let’s get on with it – let’s cut right to the cheese!
Oh! Oops… Sorriiii, my bad… I meant chase… Let’s cut to the chase:
Elementor chasing Divi Builder
As you could read in my recent Elementor page builder post, it’s a WordPress page builder on a mission! A mission to overtake the throne from mighty Divi Builder.
Indeed: Elementor is growing. Fast!
Yet, how good is Elementor vs Beaver Builder – and vs Thrive Architect (f.k.a. Thrive Content Builder)? And how does Elementor stack up vs Divi Builder?
That (and more) is what this Elementor Pro review will reveal, to help you confidently choose the best WordPress page builder – for you and your needs.
What Elementor is – and why it matters
Elementor is a WordPress page builder plugin that’ll take you far beyond the layout-capabilities of WordPress’ standard editor.
Many website owners consider page builders essential, nowadays. Beautifully organized content, in rows and columns, with crisp icons, testimonials, animations, etc – has become the norm. It’ll help your website stand out and be more welcoming to your website visitors.
Do I need a theme with elementor?
Yes, Elementor being a WordPress plugin, it still needs a theme. However, there’s now Hello – an official, light-weight Elementor theme. Also check out this comprehensive comparison of the best themes for Elementor, Beaver Builder and alternative top page builders.
With Elementor’s built-in theme builder, it can actually control many areas of your site traditionally controlled via the theme – like f.e. headers and footers. Here’s an Elementor theme builder review – even comparing it vs Beaver Themer – the Beaver Builder theme builder (reviewed here).
What’s Elementor Pro then?
Elementor Pro is the fully optional premium (paid) plugin, that extends the functionality of the free Elementor plugin.
Do you need the Elementor Pro plugin?
The free version of Elementor won’t cripple you in any way. Whether you’ll need the Pro plugin depends on your needs. We’ll look more into that below, so you can make the right choice for your website. This is an Elementor review after all – it would be a poor review if it didn’t make it easier for you to choose between the various alternatives:)
And I promise you: I will make it easier for you to choose the right page builder. Each has its own pros and cons depending on your needs. By reading this review, it is my sincere, heartful hope, it’ll help you choose the right page builder for you. It’s one of my greatest joys in life: helping people choose the optimal solution.
Truth be told: I myself can often have a hard time choosing between different alternatives. I guess that’s why I’m so thorough when I assess them! That’s to your benefit then:)
Cheers – let’s get on with the review, shall we?
=)
Choose your page builder wisely!
Carefully choosing a WordPress page builder is a an important decision for any website owner, and one that shouldn’t be taken lightly. You’ll use a page builder a lot – and on more and more pages of your site(s). You’ll invest lots of time and energy in it, and do your work faster and faster, the better you get to know your page builder of choice.
As a professional web designer, my #1 advice for you is this:
Limit your WordPress page builder choice to one of the big players:
- Beaver Builder
- Elementor
- Thrive Architect
- (Divi Builder)
Those four have proven their viability and staying power. They’re the ones likely to still be around in a few years.
Yes: there are countless other WordPress page builders out there. But will they be around, long-term?
As an example, I had planned a review of the Tailor page builder plugin, but a few weeks ago, it was discontinued. According to the developers due to Gutenberg and competition from “some really big players around like Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder & others which is going to be hard to compete with…”
There’s talk of a fork, or someone officially taking over development of the Tailor plugin, but such a situation will still be too uncertain to build your website’s future upon, for the foreseeable future. A new development-team will first have to prove their ability to drive the project forward in a meaningful, momentous way.
Case in point: the developers who’ve now given up on the Tailor page builder, took over the project from… another developer, who also gave up ?
Anyway:
- Beaver Builder
- Elementor
- Thrive Architect
- (Divi Builder)
Those are “the big four”. 3 of them are of interest and worth your consideration – note the parentheses around Divi Builder!
Why is Divi Builder in a parenthesis?
Divi Builder is on the list because it’s currently the world’s most popular WordPress page builder (although Elementor is breathing down its neck). The reason it’s in parentheses however, is because I can’t recommend it due to its severe shortcode shortcoming which disqualifies it against the remaining three, much better alternatives.
For now, let’s look at the free version of Elementor vs the Pro version.
What Elementor will give you – For Free
The free version of Elementor is a popular plugin on WordPress.org – and understandably so. It packs a huge punch, despite being free.
Here’s what Beaver Builder vs Elementor offer, in their free versions:
Free Beaver Builder modules:

Impressive Elementor-list vs Beaver Builder’s.
Safe to say, feature-wise the free version of Elementor beats Beaver Builder, hands down.
If you’re on a limited budget – or have simple website needs – the choice is simple: go with the free version of Elementor. It will serve you well.
Elementor Pricing
You can always seamlessly upgrade to Elementor Pro at a later date. All your work done in “Elementor Free” will carry over to Elementor Pro, automatically.
Should you choose to “go Pro” at some point, or even right now from the start – a new question will soon emerge:
How does Elementor Pro stack up vs Beaver Builder – and Thrive Architect?
To answer that, let’s first look at the pricing of each competitor. Which one will give you most “Pro bang” for your buck?
Elementor Pro pricing vs the competition
Elementor Pro is the paid, premium upgrade to the simple basic, free Elementor plugin. At the time of writing this, Elementor Pro’s pricing goes like this and we expect will change over time:
A 1-site licence is $49.
A 3-site license is $99.
An unlimited license is $199.
Elementor Pro costs $49 for a 1-site license. That’s the lowest price of admission among any of the top WordPress page builders.
That’s not the whole story though.
Either way, pricing for Elementor Pro is fair. But is it UBER worth it?
