  1. I would only use them for let,s say the front page, never use these plugins on most part of your content since you will get vendor locked! Besides that, the code output is usually not really nice!

  2. Hey Megan! Have you tried Page Builder Sandwich?

  3. Hi Megan, thanks for this review. I’ve tried a couple of these page builders like Divi, Thrive, and Beaver Builder. Personally, Beaver Builder is my favorite so far! I did see on Facebook that there is another page builder called “Oxygen” have you heard of it? Would love to hear your thoughts…
