## Thrive Themes Reviews
  ### 1. Best team and web toolset

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Martin J. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2024

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

It's way beyond of just web editor. Thrive Apprentice - online and membership plugin helps to sell content and protect content on all site. 
Condition logic - is the best in my opinion feature, that they integrated everywhere. So it's possible not only build websites, but smart websites.

Global Objects - amazing part, that you can create and put on many pages. If you want to edit, you can do it on any page, and all updates will be visible everywhere where object was used.

Highly valuable updates. Now they are rare, but when it comes, it sometimes change the whole product from the ground.

Articles and video updates on progress and real valuable education materials. Not just to do something, but really give something valuable even for more advanced users.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

Speed of loading for editing and saving. This part is still frustrating. 

Bugs that appears here and there. But they are solved... but slowly.. very slowly.

Quiz Builder still just a beginners level. But they know how easily they could improve it.

Support system is very slow. Now you can just email them, but still the answers comes and sometimes just left hanging, wihtout answering it. Usually they reply with scripted answers, even you are not a beginner user and don't listend to the problem written on the emails.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I can have full control on whole website structure, design, objects, data, etc.

  ### 2. Thrive Suite has everything you need!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bryan C. | Customer Experience Strategist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 27, 2024

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

Thrive Themes makes it easy to build a great looking website quickly. It's probably the easiest way to make a Wordpress site. There is a nice selection of templates for all kinds of uses (landing pages, sections of a webpage, forms, etc). And it integrates directly with most popular email service providers. They also offer responsive customer support and plenty of online video tutorials.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

As a Wordpress user it's not so much a downside, as it is the norm, but their "suite" is a compilation of Thrive product plugins, so you just have to keep them all updated.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As far as Wordpress themes go, it's the most feature-packed, user-friendly theme I could find, at a very reasonable annual price.

  ### 3. Themes makes it easy to create a beautiful looks to your website

That lifetime meberships are no longer availible to purchase and that they arent honnoring their word on the ones they sold in the past.

Building a pretty and fuctioning website

  ### 4. Thrive Suite is the best thing ever for my business

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Professional Training & Coaching | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 06, 2023

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

I've never invested in a company that has as much dedication to an awesome user experience as Thrive Themes. What I pay to them as an annual subscription is way too low. I'm grandfathered in as I was one of their earlier adopters. They not only have a whole conversion-focused package of Wordpress plugins that make me 6 figures a year, but their support is fully trained and extremely tech-savvy, going out of their way to fix my issues. They also are constantly sending me blog posts and videos that boost my business and show me how to use their ever-evolving suite of features.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

It can be a bit buggy, but it's really nothing compared to the Goliath that is Thrive Themes. All bugs are easily fixed by support in the end, and they update me on the fixes.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It builds out my whole business online. I cannot make do without it. My front-end website, funnels, pop-ups and courses are all on Thrive Themes' Thrive Suite.

  ### 5. Thrive Themes is an amazing and essential suite of tools for a converting WordPress website

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maryse G. | Operational Security Analyst, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 07, 2022

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

I love that with Thrive Themes, and I don't need to spend time searching for a new tool every time I have something to add and improve on my website. They have so many features in all their solutions that it seems impossible to outgrow what they can do for you. I love how they make it intuitive to use but also how they have an exhaustive knowledge base, Thrive Themes University, forum and other exclusive trainings to help us make the best use of their solutions. The focus on their customer's success.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

There is nothing to dislike in my perspective. With one subscription, you can build up to 25 websites. There is also an agency subscription with which you can build 50 websites. For someone who wants to manage more websites, it would be limiting but you can always buy 2 subscriptions.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With the complete Thrive Themes toolbox, I can build stunning, efficient, and secure websites. I save time, money, and headaches from maximizing my resources for better use. It increases my results and productivity.

  ### 6. Thrive Themes makes it easy to build a beautiful and functional website!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jennifer J. | W, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 13, 2022

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

It's hard to pick just one - I love how easy it is to customize the appearance of my website, but equally, I love how helpful your help desk is. I've learned over the years that a lot of help desks aren't helpful, but yours is brilliant. When I send your help team a question, they answer quickly and in full (often they fix the problem I'm having and send me a video showing me how to do it myself next time).

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

I can't think of anything I dislike about Thrive Themes - keep up the good work!

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

Thrive Themes will help you build a beautiful, functional website - even if you're not confident in using tech. Their support team are actually supportive - everyone I've dealt with has been professional, kind, and helpful.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Thrive Themes has helped me solve the problem of building my list from my website with the quiz builder. It has also helped me make my website reflect my brand - the colours, of course, but also the overall tone and feel of my brand.

  ### 7. Not GDPR compliant & very problematic to customise. All promise - no delivery.

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2022

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

The promise of templates that you can click and customise easily. They do have great options to update branding colours across the template and font styling ect however beyond that they become incredibly problematic, making them essentially too painful to use. Their support has helped me many times however waiting a week to resolve a small issue for every page I build defeats the purpose of this 'self serve' plugin suite.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

They aren't GDPR compliant - the GA tracking code fires with no regard for cookie consent. This means you either have to abandon having analytics for your pages or abandon being GDPR compliant. 
I've had issues with Thrive Leads forms appearing and Thrive Architect has constant issues with updating and tweaking templates. 
Thrive Leads doesn't integrate with Hubspot so it's impossible to use and once again impossible to make it GDPR compliant. 
I have been unable to use any plugins as they all have blocking issues. I have wasted so much time on this - it would have been faster to learn to code and create my own webpages from scratch.

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

Look elsewhere. It's a huge waste of time and money as it doesn't deliver what it promises.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We need the flexibility to build landing pages and capture leads. Also to build and edit the design of general web pages without the need of a developer. I haven't realised any of these benefits because the plugins are constantly presenting blocking issues. Absolutely terrible products.

Ease of use and good tutorials. Always improving the product.

  ### 14. Thrive Themes-easily and quickly build a website

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bryan S. | Photographer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2021

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

I'm not a designer nor a coder. I like how easy Thrive Themes makes creating webpages. They have built in templates that include landing pages and thank you pages, so it's easy to get started. Everything is built around a drag and drop system. If I want to add a video I just find that block and drop it where I want it. Anyone can use Thrive Themes and be up and running in a few minutes.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

It seems to be built around landing pages more than anything. I really wish there were templates for websites in different niches. I've used the templates before for landing pages, but I can't use it for my main pages.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Thrive themes helps with creating pages for lead magnets for me. I don't really do sales pages. Still, it has helped me capture many leads.

  ### 15. An All-in-one Wordpress solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Juan G. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 15, 2021

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

I was using different tools and plugins to customize my and my clients' websites, and in the end, it was a super complex task keeping everything up to date without breaking something. Every time a major WordPress update came, or some big change in the visual editor I was using, things just got broken. Thrive is an all-in-one solution that works, and they send releases every three weeks, which feel like Christmas, because of all the new features they provide.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

They should provide a way for the users to upvote the ideas and requests for features the users provide.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

All my WordPress design, optimization and funnel building implementation.

  ### 16. Best theme

Awesome optimize themes with speed optimization.

It’s at the price point where it’s not affordable for Indian users.

We can create and design anything we want.

  ### 18. A solid marketing/sales oriented theme framework for Wordpress

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tsahi L. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 08, 2020

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

Thrive Themes has a good solution for my marketing needs.
The Thrive Leads component enables me to manage and add popup messages along with rules so that I can engage better with my audience and potential clients.
The visual editor (Thrive Architect) is powerful and the whole Thrive platform gets updated quite frequently with new capabilities.
The support service is very useful as well. I have been using it when needed and always got good replies in a timely fashion.
In the past year, Thrive Themse have been hard at work in adding global tools that make creation of designs easier to manage properly and conveniently.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

Sometimes, using Thrive feels too different than Wordpress. In many ways, using it is quite a divergence from Vinyl/classic Wordpress, which is a bit sad.

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

Check if this one is for you. If you want to stay closer to the Wordpress classic experience then skip. If you are more interested in a marketing engine and a visual designer that is WYSIWYG in every step of the way, then definitely use this one.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Marketing needs in my services. I use it to promote my services through pop up messages on my site, create lead generation forms, enable downloading digital content and show well designed and unique landing pages.

  ### 19. My #1 software recommendation - highest rating

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Russell L. | Member, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2020

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

Thrive Themes is the premier website and marketing software on the market. 

I recommend this software daily. I constantly talk with business owners who spend thousands on small changes on their site when they don't have to. Using Thrive you can create amazing sites, totally custom, and have all the tools necessary to have a modern marketing focused website. And for a minimal investment.

Thrive support is top notch too. They are always there to help.

I just think this is one of the best companies out there.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

Probably just the code is a bit heavy on the front end. Page speed matters and while it isn't horrible, Thrive does add it's own code.
I've used the software for some time, so I'm pretty familiar with it, but I suspect the learning curve might be a little high for new users, not sure.

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

You couldn't make a better choice. Like I said, this is my number one software solution I recommend daily. I don't know of any other software like it.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Thrive is the ultimate do it yourself website tool. It solves all problems of site development for me.
Rapid development, check.
Unlimited design, check
hundreds of templates, check
marketing tools, check
AB testing, check
leadgen, optin, check
API integrations, check
membership and learning modules, check
sitewide scripting, check

I could go on and on, but this software has yet to let me down. Rather than having to run multiple plugins on my site, Thrive does everything I need it to. I rarely need another plugin, SEO is the only other one I use.

  ### 20. My Favorite Web Design Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark R. | Marketing Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 26, 2019

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

Thrive Themes is a all-in-one WordPress marketing platform. Starting with the themes and several other tools that make WordPress really come alive. Thrive Themes paired with Thrive Architect is something I use almost daily as a marketer. Being able to easily design via drag and drop functionality is a huge time saver. I haven't tested all the WP drag and drop content builders but I've used several and TT is by far the best I've used.

Thrive Architect (formerly Thrive Content Builder) is what I like best out of the suite of tools. Other tools included in Thrive Themes include: Quiz Builder, Ultimatum (evergreen countdown campaigns), Ovation (gather, display testimonials), Comments, Optimize (A/B testing for landing pages), Cliver Widgets, Apprentice (online course builder).

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

I don't really have anything negative to say about Thrive Themes. They have continued to add functionality and usability to the software that makes it one of my most valuable web design tools. The only thing that I would like to be able to do easier is control more of the header, navigation and footer functions. It's still sort of locked down.

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

If you build sites on top of WordPress you should be using Thrive Themes to make your life easier. I highly recommend the software. It's one of my favorites!

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm solving a huge timesuck! I used to build websites via HTML and Dreamweaver. Eventually, I moved to WordPress but Thrive Themes makes WordPress development a total breeze. I can build professional sites that perform really well much quicker than I ever could in the past.

  ### 21. Great web site solution for your business

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Deb P. | Karmic Coach, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 02, 2019

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

It allows me to create the look I want rather than forcing me to adapt to a template and preselected options. It's focused on speed. Their blogs and tutorials.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

Glitches inevitably happen. Their support is good, but sometimes the answer is "clear the cache" "use icognito" "try another browser" or "it works fine on my end" which aren't very helpful. It eventually gets resolved but can be frustrating. I wonder if it's partly because of the opensource aspect of WP and some of the plugins.

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

Highly recommend.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's really a one stop solution. A suite of plugins for running an online business. Saves money.

  ### 22. Could not make website without it

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Sporting Goods | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 29, 2019

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

I know almost  nothing about  web sites designing,   When i am using Thrive themes  everything comes so much easier,  i am able to design the site the I would want it too look.   I am able  to click and drag different  options and I can get it too become customized.  I have different websites and all of them use thrive themes, it really make the tasks a lot easier.  I make templates  for each of my site so i can have the same style on each of my pages

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

I am still a novice  even though i have been using  Thrive for over  3 years,  and i sometimes cant figure out how to do a certain task, and since their are different versions on the Thrive sight  I sometimes have trouble finding answers to my problem

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

To help me get started with Thrive theme i took a  low cost course on another site,  
this way i could get some training,  but if you have more experience thne I do you might be able to jump right in to the program.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The Benefit was i was able to make a web site thats looks half decent.    I wanted to  get a  affiliated site up, and then another etc.  Rather then paying a web site designer i was able to do it myself   by using thrive.   

  ### 23. Top Notch and Affordable Suite of Conversion Focused Plugins for Wordpress

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 28, 2019

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

The depth and breadth of these conversion-focused plug-ins is unmatched—and at a great price. Thrive's content marketing is also helpful for running and building your business.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

Certain plugins could use increased customizability - such as Thrive Apprentice and Thrive Quiz Builder. But, it's easy to look past this if you just want something that works for a low subscription rate.

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

Thrive Themes is a great way to replicate the functionality of ClickFunnels or other conversion-focused website / landing page builders at a fraction of the cost.  

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Thrive Themes has allowed us to create an entire custom WordPress website quickly, beautiful landing pages, an online course, and it has given us the ability to A/B test the conversion rates of our landing pages.

  ### 24. The easiest way to customise your own website

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Liam A. | Copywriter Freelance, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 05, 2019

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

Point and click. Genuinely find thrive to be the easiest way to customise a WordPress site. Having used it for my own and my client's sites. 

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

Slightly annoying that we have to pay quarterly - but so be it. 

**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

Try Thrive Themes, it's one of the few internet marketing tools i actually continue to pay for. 

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Making it easy to update a website, adding content and new features without the need for techy html or css knowledge. 

  ### 25. Terrible and Never Improved

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Leslie L. | Freelance Photographer, Media Production, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 16, 2019

**What do you like best about Thrive Themes?**

This looks like a good way to market, with innovative plugins like a way to scrape testimonials and compare headlines, but it is so confusing to use that it's not worth the waste of time attempting to leverage the plugins.

And their Thrive University is also confusing, too, especially if you are not using their themes.

**What do you dislike about Thrive Themes?**

I would like to start by saying that I have used MANY MANY MANY WordPress builders and plugins and this one is by far the worst and most complicated I have used.  I realized this within the first 30 days of using Thrive Themes but beyond the 14 day trial period so I had to keep it and they got to keep my $300. And they were pretty nasty about the whole deal until I just said, "Whatever, maybe I will find use in it."

I had originally purchased it because a marketer I was watching on YouTube was a huge enthusiast but then I realized it was because he got a huge affiliate commission for pushing it.

The intention was to create a membership course using one of their plugins but you could not create sections for the course so my 100+ lesson course would have been utterly disorganized.

Again, I figured this out after the 14 day trial but before 30 days and they still did not understand that their tools were useless to me.

I also could not connect my Facebook page with Thrive Ovation so that made that plugin useless.

I also tried out Thrive Headline Optimizer. I probably like this Thrive plugin the best, but even then, it was confusing to decide the criteria upon base my final headline decision (highest traffic vs highest engagement).

Finally, I tried Thrive Leads but, again it was confusing, and I much prefer building a landing page in X Theme's than dealing with their complicated and constrictive builder.



**Recommendations to others considering Thrive Themes:**

If you want to build a course, do not use them.  Try Fly Plugins WPCourseware instead.

And X Theme can do a lot of the stuff Thrive Themes claims to do, but at a fraction of the price and better tech support.

It is important to know that the Thrive Theme plugins sound great but understand that they rarely function well and it will take a long, long, long time for you to learn how to use them. God help you if you need tech support or if you don't like something and voice it to them.

**What problems is Thrive Themes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

None. Lost money.  Was attempting to better market my content but this was a major fail.
