Beautanic Shop review for LayoutHub ‑ Easy Page Builder

June 28, 2020

Conceptually, this app is great. It enables the not so technically inclined to easily put together a decently looking page using a library of pre-designed blocks. Unfortunately, it's still a little rough around the edges. I'm fairly confident that eventually they'll get there, though. Most of the issues that came up, disappeared when using Chrome. It would've saved some frustration if the limited browser compatibility was made clear from the start. Supposedly, they're working on improving this. What stings the most, is the difficulty of light/moderate customization. When a block is close to what you want, but not quite it, you very quickly end up having to dive into the code. Those who are savvy enough to do that, however, are probably better off using a more flexible (low-level) app in the first place. A much bigger set of configuration options with good defaults would go a long way! All in all, the app itself probably deserves 4 stars. Having 'Dilys from LayoutHub' in the corner of the screen much of the time, turns that into 5. She was both helpful and fun to talk to. Curious what life will be like without the constant reminders to write a review... ;)
