    Elementor
    Wanted to create a website quickly and get it running within a week's time. The step-by-step guide on installing Elementor and creating the basic webpage was easy and time-efficient. Some of the advanced features can be time-consuming, but they are definitely worth it once you start creating professional sites. It fits in from basic to advanced sites; I don't think there could be any scenarios where it can be inappropriate.

    TYPO3 is great if you need to connect some systems in company to work together: like ecommerce + CRM + ERP + MRP and build an Extranet for partners/dealers where they can order your products, see particular BOM (bill of material), paid/unpaid invoices and use email marketing on top of it. You can do it but keep in mind that you will need a dedicated hosting, well organized admin(s) and some handwritten code. For simple blog TYPO3 is also a good choose, but WP would be better I think.

    Pros
    Elementor
    • Block code is very easy to work with.
    • They don't have support, per se, but they have a whole big group of users on Facebook who are great at helping each other out.
    • They have some templates you can use to just get going if you're in a particular industry that would probably work well with a template!
    • The price is really not bad for how much you get.

    • open source - do what you want, and even if you dont know how to do it - someone will do it for you
    • more secure than others (Joomla, WP, Drupal) - thanks to dedicated Typo3 Security Team
    • modularity and diversity - a lot of plugins/extensions
    • workflow and user roles - feel free to build a workflow templates ie. for documents routing
    • assets management - no matter is it a video, audio or text file, you can REALLY manage it.
    • typoscript language - sometimes JS is not enough

    Cons
    Elementor
    • Occasional plugin conflicts
    • Occasional differences in appearance between the editor and live page.
    • Flexbox building has a deeper learning curve than the previous sections/columns builder. In-editor guidance would be helpful here.
    • Some options/widgets available in other builders aren't in Elementor, which means additional plugins are sometimes needed.

    • compared do Wordpress - far less community support
    • when you run a simple blog - it is simple as piece of cake. But if it is a large news site, with many user roles, extensions and permissions - it may be hard to find an admin that will organize and keep that stuff working.
    • server resources: so you want performance and speed with all that modules enabled? make sure that you have dedicated server in most cases. WP works much better here.

    Usability
    Elementor
    1. Very intuitive user interface with very well organized options for basic and advanced design features 2. Integrates very well with wordpress and a variety of plugins 3. Vast collection of Elementor themes available in the market for the small to mid sized businesses who would still prefer desired internal control over tactical/relatively less complex website changes and thus reduce dependency /Expensive annual web design contracts

    Support Rating
    Elementor
    There support is slow and at times can be frustrating and this is why many prefer to air out their frustrations within the Facebook group community. I tend to give up as when I'm working on something and something goes wrong I need the help straight away. I do not have the patience to wait anymore.

    Implementation Rating
    Elementor
    The business team has to stick to its core competencies - Our key turning point occured when we delegated webpage design challenges to a tech. firm with specific mandates (including a certain degree of internal control). Once the initial go-live was completed, the agency trained us on internalizing ad-hoc and tactical change work

    Elementor is a bit of a different platform than, say, easyTithe, Robly, and Apptivo, but it is comparable to Shopify. I feel like Elementor and WooCommerce are a lot easier to use than Shopify, and it doesn't come with such high fees. For our business, it was no choice! Elementor fits great for our needs!

    • more complex and elastic revoke system (undoing changes for multi-administrator systems) PHP/JS and TypoScript language
    • LTS - long ter msupport (bugfixes and updates)
    • usage rights and permissions (much more advanced thatn in WP/Joomla)
    • separation of design and content (in WP also but here is complex)
    • many plugins to integrate with external systems
    • several portals may be operated from a single admin/install

    Return on Investment
    Elementor
    • Elementor has made it possible for our non-profit to stand out in the non-profit space in which we operate. Our website was highly flexible and looked great, which provided confidence to our donors.
    • Elementor has never been a weak spot in the security of our website. We've had several attempted attacks against our website and yet everything was remained locked down.
    • We have only used the free version of Elementor, so it has kept our costs low and allowed us to have a professional looking website, but being able to put more money towards our charitable cause rather than IT.

    • + 1 platform that handles connections to 11 external systems (CMS, CMR, ERP, MRP, accounting, controlling, email marketing etc.)
    • + still lower TCO than commercial systems (Oracle, Microsoft)
    • + LTS - long term support - can provide you an updates or bugfixes
    • - resource consuming (forget about shared hosting in large projects)
