So, even a total novice can figure things out easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In comparison, Elementor also has an easy-to-use drag-and-drop editor.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image blog-img-std\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-opt-id=1317210691  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"738\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png\" alt=\"The Elementor drag and drop builder.\" class=\"wp-image-75521\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:738\/h:438\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 738w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:300\/h:178\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 300w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:50\/h:30\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 50w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:404\/h:240\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 404w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:669\/h:397\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 669w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:249\/h:148\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 249w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:329\/h:195\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 329w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:227\/h:135\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 227w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:738\/h:438\/q:mauto\/f:best\/dpr:2\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screenshot-elementor.com-2023.07.06-15_26_02.png 2x\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Elementor editor is smooth and fast.

Below are some significant features of the Gutenberg editor:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>WYSIWYG editing so you instantly see how your design will look.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reusable blocks for creating and saving templates you love.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Style your website using local blocks, theme defaults, or global modifications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Block pattern directory with countless blocks you can copy and paste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supports columns and nested blocks with multiple levels of nesting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, you can extend Gutenberg&#8217;s functionality and jazz up the editing experience using robust plugins like <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/plugins\/otter-blocks\/\">Otter Blocks<\/a>. If you build your site using Gutenberg, you don&#8217;t have to install separate <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-page-builders\/\">WordPress page builders<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Elementor and Gutenberg are mobile-responsive. So your website will render correctly on different screen sizes.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:15px;border-color:#4267cf\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ease-of-use-builder\">3. Ease of use \ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83d\udcbb<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ease of use is pivotal when choosing software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will look into that next in our Gutenberg vs Elementor contrast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gutenberg editor is as easy as they come. It&#8217;s a straightforward editor that allows you to add and edit elements by dragging and dropping them on the interface. And, since the editor is part and parcel of WordPress, it&#8217;s smooth and intuitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s part of your everyday WordPress dashboard experience. Plus, it&#8217;s super fast. Gutenberg has the upper hand over Elementor for ease of use because it gives you an integrated native experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Elementor is also easy to use, you still have to learn how to use it since it&#8217;s a new interface added to WordPress. Yes, the learning curve isn&#8217;t steep, but it&#8217;s there, nevertheless.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:15px;border-color:#4267cf\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"compatibility-with-wordpress-builder\">4. Compatibility with WordPress \u2699\ufe0f<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One more thing to look at in the Gutenberg and Elementor discussion is how each tool gels with WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To begin with, the Gutenberg editor doesn&#8217;t just work well with WordPress. It is WordPress. It&#8217;s part of the WordPress infrastructure. As a result, Gutenberg gets the nod over Elementor regarding WordPress compatibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not to be outdone, Elementor is also compatible with <em>most<\/em> WordPress themes. As long as your website runs on the 5.9 version of WordPress or greater or <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/php\/\">PHP<\/a> 7.4 or greater, Elementor likely works with it. If you use anything lower than the recommended system requirements, you will have issues. Using older versions of WordPress will hinder your site from working as expected and expose it to security vulnerabilities and bugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some WordPress themes and plugins are incompatible with Elementor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, Gutenberg wins the WordPress compatibility argument.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:15px;border-color:#4267cf\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"flexibility-customizability-builder\">5. Flexibility and Customizability \ud83c\udfa8<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, let&#8217;s consider customization capabilities in the Gutenberg vs Elementor showdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The more flexible your design options, the easier you can create a website that looks exactly how you want it to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gutenberg editor has limited design options compared to Elementor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, Elementor has 300+ designer-made templates that suit every industry and use case. Pick a template that suits your industry and taste, tweak it, and you&#8217;ll have a personalized website in no time. These <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/wordpress-themes\/elementor\/\">Elementor themes<\/a> help you customize your site design faster without starting from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 You can easily customize every element of your website pages from the Elementor panel. Examples of details you can edit to your liking include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Backgrounds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Headings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Body text<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Links<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Form Fields<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Buttons<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Images<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Colors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To customize a specific element, select it and then pick the customization option you want from the toolbar. True to the platform&#8217;s mantra, Elementor is designed to be extended in every aspect as you see fit. The platform has endless customization options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gutenberg offers limited customization options. But the editor still gives you a full site editing experience (FSE) with compatible themes. With a <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-block-themes\/\">block-based theme<\/a> like <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/themes\/raft\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Raft<\/a>, you can edit every element of your WordPress website using <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-full-site-editing\/\">Full Site Editing (FSE)<\/a>. You can customize headers, footers, page templates, navigation menus, theme blocks, styling, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, for flexibility and customizability, many users still prefer Elementor.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:15px;border-color:#4267cf\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"performance-builder\">6. Performance \ud83d\udd0b<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you care about website performance, Gutenberg is the winner. Because it&#8217;s a <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-core-files\/\">WordPress core<\/a> feature (and more of a stripped-down editor), your Gutenberg designs will be more performance-friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can absolutely still build fast-loading websites with Elementor. However, it will require more care and effort to achieve those fast load times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, <em>all things equal<\/em>, a design that you create with Gutenberg will almost always be more performance-optimized than a design that you create with Elementor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the tradeoff that you make to access all of Elementor&#8217;s advanced design and style options.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:15px;border-color:#4267cf\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pricing-builder\">7. Pricing \ud83d\udcb3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, let&#8217;s look at the pricing in our Gutenberg vs Elementor comparison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the Elementor pricing plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

This base plan allows you to build one website. Next, it&#8217;s the Expert Plan, which goes for $204 annually. You can create three professional websites on this plan. Then there&#8217;s the generous $399 per year plan. On this tier, you can build 25 websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crucially, all plans include premium support. Prompt support is invaluable as it ensures you quickly get the help you need should you get stuck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best part?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Besides the paid plans, they have a generous free plan. The free version gives you all the essentials you need to build a decent modern website, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Page Blocks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Template library<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Text Editor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Testimonials<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Image Gallery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Image Carousel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shortcodes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiple Column Layouts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Responsive Design<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sidebar, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Pretty impressive, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The major downside of the free Elementor plan is that it doesn&#8217;t have a form builder. High-converting forms are an integral part of a successful website. So, not having them means you miss out on many inbound leads. Plus, the templates and blocks are scanty compared to the expansive options in the Elementor Pro plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast, Gutenberg is totally free since it comes as part of WordPress. \ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gutenberg vs Elementor: Which page builder should you choose?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Gutenberg and Elementor are packed with useful features. Which one should you choose between the two? Well, it depends on many factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the criteria for choosing the right option when pitting Gutenberg vs Elementor for your website:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Skill level<\/strong>. \ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83d\udcbb While both Gutenberg and Elementor are great for beginners, Gutenberg is easier because it&#8217;s part of the WordPress interface.
