Elementor vs Divi | Which Is The Best Page Builder For WordPress?

In this tutorial, I show you the difference between WordPress best page builders, Elementor and Elementor Pro and Divi from Elegant Themes. Elementor Pro and Divi are in my opinion at this moment the best page builders for WordPress. But which one is the best? Well, that is up to you. With the information in this video, I want to help you to make the right decision for your situation.

We will talk about the interface of Elementor and Divi, the modules and elements of both page builders, and the pricing. We will talk about features that are far better than the other page builder or not a feature at all. Like Popups, Split testing, dark mode, inner sections, and more.

We will talk about the Premade layouts of Elementor Pro and Divi, about the theme builder of Elementor Pro and Divi, and about the support.

We will talk about the community of Divi and Elementor, third-party plugins, and my opinion about the page builder.

A few years ago there was WordPress, then you had a theme on top of WordPress and a page builder. These days there are theme builders. Using Elementor Pro and Divi it is possible to create complete websites. It is a theme and page builder in one. It is a website builder on top of WordPress. Thanks to the competition both Elementor Pro and Divi become better and better! We are the winners because we get the amazing tools! :D

The comparison of both themes, saying what one does that the other doesn't and vice-versa is really great. Big thank you ::D

This is excellent Ferdy, you really had a good time making this one. I've used Elementor a bit more than Divi and feel that Divi is more user friendly but the way you show Elementor, you make it look so easy! I know it all comes down to practice. I'll dive into Divi again for now. Thanks so much for this excellent comparison. Cheers!

Soooo much work - you always put so much effort in your Videos. If you wouldn't, I would go online and create exact these kind of videos. But there is nothing I could do better, so I'd better watching your videos instead of creating own vids. Very precise, very structured and very helpful. Many thanks for this. Keep up the good work and all the best to you. Greetings from Germany.

Great and entertaining video - comprehensive cover of features of both, so captivated I watched it all the way to the end (with a few breaks and rewinds of course)! The AB test feature on Divi looks interesting and something I have never come across before on a website builder. I think I will try divi first as its the more cost effective option, has more organised theme builder menus and seems like more user friendly support. Though I can see there are some great powerful features to take advantage of with Elementor and the Croco plugin you rave about on steroids :) I feel like I understand the value of the paid versions of each and more confident to give these both a try eventually.

Excellent comparison Ferdy. You really are an expert on both and thx for showing us the smallest differences which matters a lot. Greetings from SA.

This is an excellent review!!! I personally like Divi more. Their support team is beyond comparison, I'm so grateful for their insights!!

[filmtvbiz]

Nicely done. Well said. IMHO, you could start with Divi (best bang for the dollar) but all in all, you nailed it by stating BOTH would be the best way to go as you would "Level Up" with your skill set and even if just starting out - you should make your $$ back in no time. Cheers. SUBSCRIBED ! ! !

You are clearly the best trainer I’ve found. Have you considered breaking out your 2+ hour long tutorials into topical sections?

[henstradesign]

I would like to get your thoughts on Elementor's video playlist widget. I have tried using it and it doesn't work well...plus the sound is off by default. Thanks Ferdy!

[tomcha]

Thank you for the awesome in-depth review of the two platforms.

[sachindhillo]

Hey Ferdy, Keep up the good work man. God bless you and your famliy

[omaracelys]

Amazing video,
learned so much stuff, not only as comparison, also as user of wordpress...
you are the real deal ..

[markotavra]

Excellent vid Ferdy ! Thanks it helped me make up my mind 🙃

[omarfernando]

You just read my mind, i was wondering this week about a really good review between this 2 builders, I'm almost advanced Elementor Pro designer and i never tried Divi before, but I'm really curious

[RoboGS]

Nice. I almost finished a blog about this topic. My conclusion is the same. Both work and do some thing better than the other. I think that Divi is still the underdog but a very strong. Looking forward to see them grow

[ifoxino]

Hi Ferdy this was the best video i saw about this things. Like it and subscribed to your channel. Thanks a lot.

[AlexWent]

Useful video. Thanks. I use Divi most of the time, but it's useful to see what Elementor offers.

[christinhebron]

Are there limitations with the divi theme if I'm a client to someone who can provide the divi theme since she has lifetime access?

[isaacfirmos]

I have premium starter templates, but when i try to import the, model it doesn't allow me to import individual pages, only the whole website. Can you help me with that issue?

[KaziMamun]

Like the Navigator in Elementor, Divi has Layers that can do the same thing. You don't need to go to the wireframe mode to drag the sections.
