Kadence WP Reviews & Product Details

I use Kadence WP for my website and business because it offers good customization options and integrates well with Gutenberg blocks, Kadence Blocks, and Elementor. I like the navigation and header builder, which enhances the website's appearance, making it look structured with great UI. I enjoy the smooth integration of Kadence WP with Elementor and sometimes use the Kadence Blocks plugin, which also works seamlessly with the theme. The theme solved the problem of having an easy-to-use and customizable WordPress theme that integrates well with page builders, particularly Elementor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have quite good experience with Kadence WP and I don't have any dislikes of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The plugin itself worked well for years and the interface was easy to use for managing multiple client sites efficiently." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since Liquid Web's May 12, 2026 migration, all of my 20+ client sites have had zero working backups for nearly a month. Licenses show as Active but nothing reconnects. Multiple support tickets submitted and ignored. Passed between departments repeatedly with no resolution. As a professional managing client sites, this is completely unacceptable and has destroyed my trust in this platform entirely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the Kadence WP templates, they are fantastic and serve as a great base for WordPress. The templates created with it are much faster, simpler, and less loaded. I really like that it has many blocks built based on Gutenberg, which makes it much lighter and faster than similar templates. Additionally, it is very easy to use.

It ends up having fewer blocks than, for example, Elementor, which for some of my clients might be a disadvantage, but I consider it an advantage because I prefer to install what's missing rather than have a very loaded template when I actually want to create a simple site.

Compared to other theme makers this gives a nice balance of features and appearance. It is similar to Astra theme in that they are both easy to use but the Kadence starter templates and patterns in the pattern hub are MUCH nicer in appearance. Astra seems to care for quantity over quality. I chose Kadence because of the one time payment to get all the features, it has about 90 starter templates, more than Blocksy, which also looks nice, and it has very nice looking patterns to choose from. I did a side-by-side comparison with Astra and Kadence is much nicer looking. Also with the ultimate plan you have A/B tests, a pop-up builder, a form builder, and can make your own pattern hub for use in sites you build. Of course it takes some getting used to but after using it for a couple of months most work days I am starting to get the hang of it and can build pretty fast. I liked the GeneratePress theme but there is no lifetime plan and the starter templates look simpler (but professional) compared with Kadence. Oxygen builder was another one I compared and the temps look very nice but this would just take too much time to set up. Although I'm front end developer and can't do this I need something faster.

I haven't found much that I dislike so far, but perhaps the documentation can be more full featured. I haven't been impressed by the AI site maker (I think this is overhyped) but haven't seen any other team maker that has an impressive AI site maker either (tried Astra).

Excellent product, which I use every day in building Wordpress sites for my clients. Also, has excellent support. I find people that complain about the learning curve or requiring additional plugins, do not understand Wordpress or the complexity of other page builders like Elementor, Beaver Builder or Divi. Unlike these products, Kadence doesn't replace the Gutenberg editor or add another layer on top of Wordpress. It adds its features by augmenting Gutenberg. It adds many features and customizations. It is a fairly new product and they are continually adding more features, such as AI tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing really, Kadence is too good and getting better and better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I want to give you my super honest opinion of what it has been like for me to use Kadence. For me it is an excellent Wordpress theme and block editor platform, the support service is amazing and I find the prices are super reasonable.

I did not come from using wordpress and I had been recommended generated press, although it is a good platform it has a learning curve much steeper than Kadence and also the support team is fabulous.

You have a history of your tickets and you can always open more.

I really recommend it 100% and believe me I am a very demanding customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing I am very happy with my purchase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Each member of the support team is kind and good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kadence is not recommended for photographers or anyone working with images due to its excessive DOMs production and lack of optimization, despite extensive advertising across the web.

Additionally, I have encountered numerous unresolved issues, with the most concerning being the ract.com.min.js problem. Although Kadence portrays it as a WordPress file, it actually triggers continuous calls to your host, potentially triggering your DDoS protection and compromising your website. Despite my efforts, Kadence refused to address this issue and deliberately terminated my license in retaliation for my complaints. It was a blackmail, litterally. I've spent over 5 months working tirelessly to redesign my website. Therefore, I advise caution when reporting missing elements or features, as you may face similar repercussions.

The Kadence theme is block based and includes all of the basic blocks that you will need for building out your wordpress site. The themes are fairly well built out for most use cases. You can get up and running quickly with a nicely built out blog. The themes are all optimized for speed. Other than RankMath for SEO you will not need much else to get up and running. The biggest benefit to the block based format is that it includes many of the functionalities that you will require without needing to install additional plugins that will slow down your site. It is easy to integrate other solutions as it contains the hooks required. We use it each day. The customer support and ease of implementation are top notch.

The blocks do not include the option for calculating formulas for things like calculators and polls. These would be great additions to the solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Flexible, efficient, Easy to use and great customer support! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only real criticism I can give is that it's not a fully Gutenberg theme, but it does combine the best of both worlds! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
