Beaver Builder vs Elementor 2.0: Free Page Builders Compared [2020]

Free Beaver Page Builders Vs Elementor 2.0 Compared [2020]

Hi everyone, my name is Raju and in this post, I’ll answer some questions you may have about two of the best page builders of WordPress: ELEMENTOR & BEAVER BUILDER. Until the end of this video, you will be able to decide which one is best for you even if you know absolutely nothing about them. Let’s get started! Well, because we talk about visual page builders here, and both have drag-and-drop functionality, they are user-friendly. You can see intuitive icons everywhere, which will help you find the custom capabilities of a section or element. Each icon will be revealed when you hover over it with your mouse cursor, and after you click on the icon, a list of available options will be revealed.

These are pretty much the same for both, Elementor and Beaver Builder. One of the best things I can see right now is the inline text editing capability in Elementor, which, unfortunately, is not available in Beaver Builder. So, in terms of intuitive and user-friendly interface, both have high standards and are very easy to use. When you create a page on WordPress from scratch, with Elementor, you will drag over specific elements, section by section, until you finish it. You can use the default elements each and every page builder comes with, like the title, the text element, and more.

In the Pro version of Elementor, for example, you will be able to drag over a premium pricing element. The free version of Elementor gives you 45 items that you can drag and drop to build custom pages and posts as well, where Beaver Builder comes with less. Starting with 2.0, Elementor gives you even more ready-made pieces of content you can play with, like blocks, which you can use to create custom pages section by section, like this. You can create headers and footers too, but these templates are available only for PRO users. Remember that you can extend the number of available elements with plugins for both page builders.

Here is a video I recommend you watch to see seven of the top-rated add-ons I am talking about, for Elementor. For example, if you install and activate the Orbit Fox WordPress plugin, you will be able to create a contact page, like this, with just a couple of clicks… an about us page like this… and a pricing plans page, like this… You can start with the default content, then everything you need to do is to customize it for your own needs… If you want to see more videos please hit the like button below, then don’t forget to subscribe and tap the bell to get notified every time we upload a new video.

Moreover, there are a lot of unofficial plugins that come with additional features and elements for every page builder, and you can find those plugins in the WordPress repository on your dashboard with a simple search related to the name of that specific page builder. The only limit here is your imagination. Both page builders in this video have a lot of custom capabilities available, and you can transform any element into something unique. For example, you can change the background of an element with solid colors, gradient, and images too.

For some of the elements, you have the option to set a video background as well. The title and text elements have almost everything you need to make them look great and unique. If you want to deliver the best mobile experience ever, with Elementor you can slightly adjust the content to perfectly fit any screen size. So, each page builder has a lot of options you can use to customize your content and because of that, it’s hard for me to pick a winner. My favorite one is Elementor but you can decide for yourself until the end of this video, so keep watching. To cut things short and build basic websites fast, each page builder comes with pre-made templates you can use to create content with a single push of a button.

2. Elementor 2.0

The winner here is Elementor by far because of its 100+ templates you can use in the pro version. Do you remember the Orbit Fox WordPress plugin mentioned earlier? That plugin has also some unique ready-made templates you can use instantly after you click the import button. The team behind this plugin works hard to create more templates you will be able you use for free, right after installing it on your dashboard. With the free version of ELEMENTOR for example, you can create shape dividers above and below every section for a better visual experience and the animated text element in the PRO version of this plugin will make your page more dynamic. Considering only these two things, your WordPress website will stand out for sure.

The maintenance/coming soon mode of Elementor is another unique function you can turn on right from its interface. One of BEAVER Builder’s most unique features is the recently released Beaver Themer add-on. This add-on is a separate purchase, but it essentially lets you use the same Beaver Builder interface to build your entire theme, including headers, single post layouts, and more.

If you love free things, as I do, I need to let you know that Elementor and Beaver Builder have free versions, which you can install right from the WordPress repository on your dashboard. And if you want to spice things up a little bit with premium elements, Elementor PRO has a starting price of $49 which is a license you can use on one site, with updates and support for one year starting the day of your purchase.

The money you need to spend on the premium version of Beaver Builder starts at $99, and for that price, you will be able to use all its premium modules and templates on unlimited sites. Furthermore, you will have access to world-class support for one full year. Beaver Builder is the least known here and comes to the second place for now with over 500K active users, and you can use it with almost any WordPress theme you want. Elementor gets the crown because of its 600K+ users, and the numbers will grow fast for both page builders, I am sure! Nobody knows what figures we’ll see in a year from now, but one thing is for sure, they will grow.

So, my favorite one is Elementor, because of its many free features updated regularly. The number of ready-made page templates in the library and the possibility to import custom templates are also things that convinced me to use it every day. You are free to decide which one is better for your own needs, then please say it in the comments section below, and if you want to learn more about WordPress check out these.
