“Legacy”, but very good
by Adrian Mörchen·9 months ago·1 reply

Despite using the block editor on any (new) website, I’m still using SiteOrigin’s on 3 customers pages (since 8+ years) …

The developers have done a very good job in developing a clean, easily usable and esp. non-techy-user-friendly editor. Like others (i.e. Elementor), this editor is not bloated, just works (never had any problems) and has a very good feature set.

Beyond Expectation Support

Great plugin, especially with premium add-ons. But what makes it the best is their AMAZING other worldly support.

Works well but too many updates
by paulstenning·2 years ago·3 replies

This plugin works well and is fully supported, but the amount of updates is excessive – 9 so far this year. This can make it more difficult to ensure our websites are kept up to date.

Great plugin
by gertjuergensen·2 years ago·1 reply

It works as promised. I am extremely satisfied with this plugin.

Always Great
by DB·2 years ago·1 reply

I’ve been using SiteOrigin for 5 years now. Not officially at the beginning with SiteOrigin as my theme had a forked version of it, but I easily moved over to the official one, this one within a year later or so later. Anyway, been using Page Builder by SiteOrigin, SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle, and of course SiteOrigin Premium with 0 issues, and just all work with Classic and TinyMCE.

It’s my permanent building structure. So long as they permanently keep supporting Classic Editor / Classic Widgets
