Hi There! Thanks for sharing your opinion, I can totally relate to most things 👍🏻😀 Only the one more click is pretty annoying when building sites every single moment of the day for clients 😎 Than all those clicks adds up!

Hi there! Good to see you again and thanks for the comment. Yeah I totally agree to that, you might be right that they underestimate the process, who knows 😃 Lets keep hoping then 😁

Hi Ziggy! Thanks for your comment. All the things you say are true, true and true. So yeah, let's hope Divi 5 comes QUICK and then Divi 6 with all new features will come before christmas. You are right, they are not the only one! Have a great day and take care. Greetings

Hi there! Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it! I’m always honest in my videos and tutorials. Also about the could-be-improved things 😀

Hi Tonny! Thanks for your comment. Some plugins and addons are indeed subscription model, but also some (not all) lifetime products. So you are using Elementor now for all websites?

Divi has turned into a gold digger system... If you really want something good, it is beter to pay to a developer to do it for you becuase with Divi, it will take longer and probably more expensive...

Hi there, thanks for your comment. But I don’t agree. If you know your way around with Divi you can build your own website in a few hours. Also with Elementor, works fine!

@@WPressDoctor Of course sir. You are right about it. I'm just one of those lazy ones. It is very hard for me to understand complex structures. Divi has turned into something complex to me. As you said, if you know your way around, you don't need to pay a single $ and still you can have anything you need with Divi or Elementor of course. But I can't even add a filter to my products page since the last 2 months because I can't focus long enough to understand any 5+ minutes videos. I wish I could but this is my limit. I expect to see built in basic stuff for every single thing I need like filtering pages - posts - categories - products or similar things. Lately, every single app turned into "Free is here (does nothing), monthly payment with 50% features, monthly plus with %75 features monthly premium with %99 features + if you want to have extra key features you can visit our community market and pay $100 for each simple thing + AI is here but we want extra $ with subscription and with the subscription we have 5 levels, level 1 subscription has got 1.000 points for AI promts you will use, level 2 has got 3.000 points...." goes on and on and on... I just can't handle these DLC payments anymore.

@@Emre-yx6vw Exactly!

Hi Patrick! Thanks for your comment. Interesting about the AI! The lifetime license is with the Divi Theme. I think you are referring to the page builder plugin which you could use with any theme? Competition is indeed increasing and I hope to see that Elegant Themes uses this as fuel to speed things up 😀

Hi Bishal! Thanks for the kind words. Nope, your good 😎 Have a great day and take care. Greetings

Hi there! Thanks for the comment. That’s great advice about Elementor there, yeah it’s true, you don’t need any addons if everything works out of the box! And indeed, it keeps everything working really smoothly. Have a great day and take care!

Hi janette! Thanks for the comment. Yeah its always difficult to make the transition. You can do it! Just learn the ropes with Divi! Its not hard and you will get the hang of it pretty soon 😊

Hi Carlos! Thanks for your comment. This is indeed a big difference and I can totally understand your opinion if finance is a thing. Agreed! Have a great day and take care 😀👍🏻

Hi there! You are very welcome! I’m glad I could help you out with this video. Stay tuned, more awesome tutorials coming up! Have a great day and take care 😀👍🏻

Hi Michael! Thanks for the idea! I just happen to have the lifetime license of Bricks, so its on my list. Are you using Bricks to create sites now?

@@WPressDoctor yes, was using divi, then elementor, and now switched completely to bricks :)

@@michaelfoerster3364 From your experience, which one is better, Divi or Elementor Pro?

Hi Lee! Sure thing! I agree. So what builder are you using now?

Hi there! Thanks for the question. That’s true, I didn’t talk about that at all. The reason is because SEO should be handled by the experts in SEO. So I always advice you to use the Rank Math SEO plugin to do this job. So it really doesn’t matter what theme or page builder you are using. For Analytics it’s the same! So I don’t take those things into account when choosing a page builder - as they are actually irrelevant 😎

​@@WPressDoctorjust chipping in about Rank Math here. It once caused a huge issue with a client site, broke pages, and they did not care, let alone help at all. So I've been staying clear of them.

Hi there, thanks for your comment. That is true, I didn't touch that because both builders can do this. With or without ACF, its both possible to fill fields dynamically like titles and texts etc. Elementor is just a little bit better (more options) so that would be a 7 for Divi and 8 for Elementor Pro 😎

@@WPressDoctor I've never used Divi so this is good to know, many thanks

U are welcome!

Hi there! Thanks for the comment. What kind of functionality would you need added to Divi?

@@WPressDoctor Such as displaying the interface for ACF and CPT, repeating elements while building an archive page, creating a form with specific conditions, and filtering according to custom fields..

Yeah indeed! Good points 😀👍🏻

Hi there! Thanks for your comment. For some €10 a month is a lot, for others it’s a investment to make thousands a month… it totally depends on your goals and your budget and … well all those things. In regarding to canceling, I would not recommend it. Elementor brings a LOT of updates regularly that fix security issues but also adding new features. Well worth the money. Divi is a one-time payment, so that might be more interesting for you?

@@WPressDoctor Thanks for the quick reply. By expensive I mean compared to alternatives. My clients are paying for these licences, I need to justify it. For most clients I'll find it difficult to charge such prices for these kits, when the same and more is included for almost free with Divi. Plus, monthly charges are a bookkeeping nightmare. Of course I cannot cancel subscriptions for theme and plugins. But design kits? Those usually don't need updates. Unless they become incompatible with the base system. Which could cause loads of problems anyway...

I understand, Sure thing! Paying monthly for design kits is indeed a bit… weird 😎

Hi there! Thanks for the question. Yeah I have used Beaver Builder and I wasn’t impressed by it 🤷🏼‍♂️. There is a lot to say about it in terms of functionality but mainly I t just feels like going back in time 🙃 What is your opinion on Beaver Builder?

@@WPressDoctor Thanks for your response. I've used Beaver Builder for a long time now. It's very easy to use and not a bad builder, but like you said its kind of oldschool. I was hoping they would do some major updates, but they never came 😞I really want to transition to Elementor, but right now I have all my clients sitting on Beaver Builder. Would moving from BB to Elementor be a difficult transformation you think?

Ah yeah I totally get you. All my clients are also on Divi! So what I do here: don’t change winning teams, so if they work, they work. When you are going to build new websites for new clients, just use Elementor Pro for those 😀👍🏻 If a ‘old’ client wants a new website, then it’s time to switch. Save yourself the hassle for migrating all of them!

@@WPressDoctor Yes I totally agree. Thanks for that advice. I did build a site in Elementor before. It's not bad at all. Way more features than BB for sure. My next website redo will give Elementor a shot. Thank you again. Love your content.

Hi there! Thanks for the question. Well in your case I would: 1) Start over with Elementor from scratch. So start a complete new website with Hello Theme and just start over. OR 2) Finish with Divi and wait for Divi 5 to catch up with the speed of Elementor 😀 It’s totally up to you! Just remember that mastering a new tool can take a lot of time.

@@WPressDoctor Hi, thank you for your response. At the moment I am really not happy with Divi Speed. Do you know, when Divi 5 should come? Thank you!

Yeah it should have came out 2 years ago 😂 we are all eager for the launch, no one knows when it will be launched unfortunately…

Divi 5 public Alpha is almost ready to launch, as you can see on their blog… so it won’t take longer than a month for the alpha I think 😎 then beta and then final release, should be 3/4 months I hope!

@@WPressDoctor thank you

Hi Shrey! Thanks for writing a comment, really appreciate that. It could suggest that, but when (like in my case) you have already 50 clients that paid for their existing website that you maintain and host, and they are all build with Divi... than changing it to Elementor Pro would cost you more that it will make you money. So in that case... switching is not really a profitable option... But when creating new websites, yeah my choice is easily made! 😎

Hi there! Thanks for the love. I’m glad you liked the video! What builder do you prefer?

@@WPressDoctor I use elementor pro for build websites. Divi also good. I will try to use divi .

Ah great!

Hi there! That doesn’t sounds good. Was your CC stolen and then it was used to purchase Elementor Pro?

@@WPressDoctor There was an automatic renewal set. My credit card was stolen, and they charged that stolen card 8 months later. I wondered how that was possible, and the answer I received was, "We emailed you about the renewal" - which is not true. Additionally, I found out that they can charge even stolen cards. According to the support response: "Kindly be advised that saved payment method details can continue to work even if the physical card has been replaced by the issuing bank with a new one. Stripe works with card networks and automatically updates saved card details whenever a customer receives a new card (for example, replacing an expired card or one that was reported lost or stolen)." Plus, I can't delete the CC number because the platform requires another CC. Elementor is trash
