Divi vs. Pegboard

Divi has cornered the market on a simple, straightforward WordPress theme that gives some major integrations and functions! Now that I've worked within it for years, I have a much better understanding of how robust a system it is. It takes some practice to get accustomed to but once you "get" it, it is so fun to use. I've shown so many small business owners how to use Divi and I feel that it is much easier to learn than other themes with functions that are controlled by coding or shortcodes. I could play in Divi all day, and some days I do, depending on which projects I am working on at the time

• The Pegboard platform does not limit the design and feel of a website. As web designers and developers we have the ability to design a unique looking website through the construction of HTML template pages which are then integrated with the Pegboard CMS.
• The Pegboard platform provides a large range of modules for integration by designers into a website. The modules that are used depend on the requirements of the website - there is no limit to the number of modules that can be used.
• The online CMS management console is easy to use. A client can manage their website content with as little as a half day training session.
• The Pegboard CMS is a high-end web platform that provides the opportunity to integrate a company’s back-end systems like CRM, accounting and inventory software with their website - providing a business administration efficiencies.
• The Pegboard CMS provides all of the modules that other CMS provide and include: News, RSS feeds, advanced forms, SEO, blog, banner ads, document management, SMS enablement, image galleries, jobs, membership, broadcasting, polls, event management, forums, product catalogue, eCommerce, e-Marketing, social media
• The CMS provides the ability to tailor content for certain users - ie. specific information for members, limited information for the general public. There is no limit to the number of types of users.
• Pegboard's partner program provides access to a network of other developers and programmers that can be called upon to provide their expertise in their area of specialty.

• Some advanced features need to be complemented with other paid plugins (e.g., attachments in contact forms)
• Certain Divi elements cannot be nested within other Divi elements (e.g., including an element within an accordion)
• Customizing the header is powerful, but making the most of it is more challenging than the rest of Divi's options

• The Pegboard platform is a high-end CMS solution and so requires a high level of knowledge of HTML and CSS. It is not suitable for graphic designers with a limited knowledge of these web languages.
• As a partner I have access to the Pegboard developers helpline - phone or online ticket system. At times I have found that their assistance has been a little on the slow side. This could be improved. I also feel that they expect a higher level of programming ability than we as a partner may necessarily have.
• We have used the Pegboard Build department to assist us with the development of some aspects of our client’s websites. This build service could improve their communication with partners so that outcomes could be achieved more easily.

The Pegboard platform offers our company the ability to offer a greater level of design than any other platform. And this, combined with the superior functionality that the platform offers, enables us to provide a web solution to companies requiring a high-end website for their business. Without the Pegboard platform we would not be able to provide a top-end solution to those clients that require it.

Divi is overall a great tool to use - I think I would need to spend a little more time to dig into the tool to provide more long term feedback.

Divi is a far better-looking and easier-to-learn system than Elements. While Elements has flexible columns and more compatibility with third-party systems (Crockoblock), it has a far steeper learning curve. Divi had a better pricing model and was easier to use to work at speed. We also felt it was far more client-friendly for self-editing.

Pegboard provides a superior ability to customise the design of a website and offers a greater level of functionality. The other web platforms reviewed all use their own design templates that can then be customised. We have recommended these other 2 platforms to some clients that are happy with an existing template design and therefore benefit from some potential lower cost. These other platforms do provide a lesser level of functionality.

• It's hard to quantify, but it's allowed me to create the face of my website, which currently receives tens of thousands of visits each month. This is largely thanks to Divi.
• It has allowed me to quickly design my own sales and product pages, without having to rely on third-party platforms.
• Divi's lock-in has made it difficult for me to explore other visual builders that might also be interesting for my website.
• Es difícil de cuantificar, pero me ha permitido crear la cara visible de mi web, que en este momento recibe decenas de miles de visitas cada mes. En gran parte es gracias a Divi.
• Me ha permitido diseñar en poco tiempo mis propias páginas de venta y de producto, sin necesidad de depender de espacios de terceros.
• El lock-in de Divi me ha hecho difícil explorar otros constructores visuales que también podrían ser interesantes para mi web.

• Mosaic Studios is a relatively new partner of the Pegboard platform. The platform has enabled us to provide a sophisticated web solution to a number of our clients - helping us to provide a more complete service. Without the ability to offer this high-end web solution we could have potentially lost a number of clients.
• Pegboard has broadening the web solutions that we can recommend to clients - and therefore the platform helps us to attract new clients and to retain existing clients.
