Zion Builder
The Zion Builder is one of the new breed of page builders that is trying to improve on the previous generation by finding the sweet spot of ease of use, good performance, features, and flexibility. Zion Builder is a relatively new builder and was recently offered at a discounted price on AppSumo, not to raise money, but to raise awareness. The team wanted to get the builder into people’s hands so they can get feedback and hopefully spread the word.There is a free version of the Zion Builder available in the WordPress plugin directory. It has more than 1,000 active installs. It is the pro version that supports custom fields and includes the theme builder.I have a walk-through and review here.
Pros: I like the range of options available. I thought it was easy to style the different elements, and center them. It was easy to pick the advanced custom fields. The repeater functionality worked well.
Cons: There is some awkwardness in the user interface requiring extra clicks that could be streamlined.
Additional Information: Zion Builder has annual plans and a limited number of unlimited lifetime licenses. There are two third party addons that offer additional builder elements.
