Best Elementor Addons (Free & Pro)

Elementor is one of the best page builders and offers many features. If you still need some more features, you can use one of the many Elementor AddOns. Below I have collected the best Elementor plugins for enhancing your website.

What are Elementor AddOns?

An Add-On is a plugin that adds additional functionality to an existing plugin. With Elementor AddOns, new widgets and additional features are added to the Page Builder. Of course, without Elementor, the add-ons will not work.

How useful are Elementor plugins?

If you use the free version of Elementor, the addons can be a real enrichment and also an alternative to Elementor Pro. Because you get additional Elementor widgets, with new functions or design options. But even as a Pro user you can benefit from Elementor Addons and upgrade useful features. It always depends on what you need for what purpose.

Advantages:

You get new or enhanced features
You may be able to save the expense of Elementor Pro.
Time saving, as for example CSS adjustments are unnecessary or you may not need other WordPress plugins.

Disadvantages:

As with all WordPress plugins, Elementor add-ons can negatively affect the performance of your website.
Elementor updates could cause problems if the addon vendor does not react to changes in time.

Overview Elementor Addons

Since there are a lot of tools available now, I will only introduce you to some of the most popular Elementor addons. Most of them are freemium plugins. So the basic version is available for free. Additional and special features are only available in the paid Pro version.

All Elementor addons include basic widgets such as buttons, headings, accordions, and so on. They mostly differ from each other only in style and small details. However, almost each of the Elementor Plugins offers some special features as well. For example, WooCommerce options, dynamic content, form features, booking systems or design effects.

Therefore, it is difficult to make a recommendation for a specific addon. Because it always depends on the exact functionality you want to add to your website.

With the free Essential AddOns you can extend Elementor with over 40 elements. And you easily can deactivate widgets you don’t need, so your website won’t be cluttered unnecessarily. With over 1 million active installations, Essential Addons Lite is one of the most popular Elementor addons.

OoohBoi Steroids for Elementor

• HARAKIRI (Change of font alignment for texts & headings)
• POOPART (Overlay & underlay for all widgets)

Dynamic Visibility for Elementor

The Elementor plugin from dynamic.ooo doesn’t really fit into my list. Because it doesn’t include any widgets, but simply one often requested feature: the conditional display or hiding of elements. This works similar to Widget Options (which I use for sidebar widgets), but for Elementor widgets.

I am currently using the plugin for my Black Friday deals page. Because with it, I can show or hide the individual deals on a timed basis.

Of course, there is also a premium version here, which contains over 100 features. The focus is mainly on dynamic content, but also otherwise the provider has packed many demanded elements in its addon.

• 360° Slider
• ACF Features
• Toolset Features
• Form Extensions (Autocomplete, Calculation, Conditional Logic, MultiStep, PDF Output, Signature)
• WooCommerce Extensions
• Off-Canvas Menu
• Animations
• Panorma
• Cursor Tracker
• Parallax
• Scroll Effects

Flexible Elementor Panel

This Elementor plugin simplifies your work with the Elementor Widget Panel. After activating the tool you can move the panel around freely and also arrange the widget categories as you like. Especially if you have several Elementor addons installed, Flexible Elementor Panel can be very helpful.

Which Elementor Addon

Especially when using several Elementor addons on a single website, you will lose the overview very quickly! On which page is which widget from which Elementor plugin actually in use? That’s exactly what the tool Which Elementor Addon tells you.

As soon as it is activated, you will see the name of the widget and its provider on your Elementor pages.

Conclusion

So which is the best Elementor addon? Unfortunately, I can’t give a general answer to this question either. Because it always depends on what exactly you need for your website.

If the many features of Elementor are not enough for you, I would first consider if these can be covered with a free Elementor plugin. And then just test it – preferably on a staging site. This way you can also see how individual tools affect the loading time or if there might be problems with other plugins or Elementor itself.
