## Reviews

### "The best website builder for WordPress" — 4.0/5

> **Bhabishya** | *28 May 2022* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Visual Composer has lots of features and elements which are very helpful when building a WordPress site and pages. And on top of that they have lots of templates as well which I really love. And the thing I like the most about Visual Composer is that the plugin support WooCommerce which is very important for me cause most of my sites are using WooCommerce.
> 
> **Cons**: What I like the least about this software is that it was very difficult to start using at the beginning and also their pricing is bit expensive compared to other similar software I have used in the past and the one I'm using currently.
> 
> The overall experience with Visual Composer has been great. It has everything I need and helped me make my website look great.

### "Easy for Business Owners to Maintain Site Without Learning HTML/CSS" — 5.0/5

> **Lee** | *08 April 2020* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As the name suggests, the fact that it's a Visual tool.   Others claim to be visual but you soon discover that you need to also be an expert in HTML \& CSS - I just don't have the patience.   With VC however it's pretty much all drag \& drop.  You might need to know a tiny bit of CSS.  I had a developer help me create the initial templates but after that I just copied \& pasted.    I like the fact that it's based on tables.  That makes it easy to control the layout especially with a responsive site.   Once you learn it you can pump out pages very fast.
> 
> **Cons**: Their tech support is great but I'm more of a self-serve guy so I like to just look up the info myself.  Unfortunately there's not much info out there.  There is a community forum but I couldn't understand how it works - it was weird.   The videos they do put out are extremely brief.    Your best bet is probably just trial \& error.  Once I figured out how to create \& manage tables that made a huge difference.   I've been using Elementor (an alternative) lately \& their community forum is a Facebook Group - that makes it way easier to learn than VC.
> 
> My website was 9 years old, not mobile friendly \& I was losing sales as a result.  I needed to update but I wanted something I could update myself.   I had been using MS Expression web so I wanted another WYSIWYG solution.   I got a developer to transfer some of my pages over from plain HTML to Wordpress/VC after that I just updated the content myself.    It was pretty easy once I got the hang of it.   Customers \& Google must have loved the new look, responsive site because after a couple of months my sales went up about 90% on the previous year.   It's so easy to update my site now.   It's pretty much like just using a word processor.

### "A page builder that no one wants to use." — 2.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 February 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Since visual composer was first in the market, they have integrations with so many themes out there. Most themes listed on themeforest use Visual composer.
> 
> **Cons**: Visual composer is now left far behind in the race of page builders because the product took too long to evolve and compete. Outdated interfaces, bad UI, UX, and very confusing brand identity have caused the builder to be the least favorite choice of most including me.

### "Best WordPress Website Builder Plugin" — 5.0/5

> **Umair** | *10 March 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Visual Composer is the best drag and drop Editor. There are lots of content elements in Visual composer, which allow us to add text, buttons, maps, images, videos, galleries, grids and more things. You can drag and drop content elements in the rows and build a responsive webpage for all devices including Mobile and Desktop. You can use different row and column layouts like three sections in one row, two sections in one row or more sections. You can also add box shadows in the rows of your webpages that feature is also really awesome.
> 
> **Cons**: There are two versions of this plugin, these are free and paid. According to my point of view, in the free version, they should include a few more component elements. All other things about this plugin are good.
> 
> I have used Visual Composer on my personal websites. I sell online courses so this plugin allows me to design and create professional web pages for my students. I really design the pages of my website very quickly using this plugin without typing a single line of code. Even I have also used Visual Composer for the projects of my clients, they also like the webpages that I designed with this plugin. So my overall experience with Visual Composer is really awesome and incredible, therefore I love this Plugin.

### "One, two, three... your website is online\!" — 5.0/5

> **Valerio** | *13 October 2022* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: In few steps you can manage your wordpress website. I prefer to use the backend editor (faster) but some customers of mine prefer to use the frontend. With many plugins available you can extend its functions and it's also simple to write plugins and shortcodes on your own.
I prefer it to other composer for the backend interface that is simple to understand also for the less skilled user.
> 
> **Cons**: Maybe it makes SEO a bit more difficult than plain Wordpress.
