"Pinegrow is easy to use for non-developer skillset designer"

5/5

What do you like best about Pinegrow Web Editor?

I like the bootstrap blocks concepts and the clean code ready for development. Its easy to use. In-fact I when ahead and did a community presentation in Dallas. Interface is customization is possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinegrow Web Editor?

I don't like the help section, they don't have updated videos for all the new updated software which they release very frequently. Mostly of help documents didn't made any relevance between interface and help document screenshots. I didn't see community support channels are answered very frequent. Product owners run slack channels but raising a concern about the product issue didn't got resolved. Interface is little fuzzy in using. We need really big screen like 2000x1900 resolutions for using this products. Tutorials are not enough to learn. This community just started growing and I think it will need lot of plan in place before launching product or else maintain separate help version for different product version they launch. Sometimes I feel it is better to not launch new product without any good help documents. There blocks section is great but it is limited to Bootstrapped I think if they improve it to other frameworks.

"Closest Thing to Dreamweaver I've Found"

4/5

What do you like best about Pinegrow Web Editor?

It's the closest thing I've found to Dreamweaver, a desktop app that allows you to visually build HTML/CSS websites plus its multiplatform and has an option to purchase a perpetual license. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinegrow Web Editor?

My favorite version of Dreamweaver was version 13.2 (the first version of Dreamweaver CC, right after CS6). I got really used to using Fluid Grid Layouts and that became very easy for me to develop. It's taking some time to get used to CSS Grid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pinegrow Web Editor:

They do offer a free trial if you wanted to give them a try. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinegrow Web Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

For as much as I (would) use Dreamweaver, $30-$50/month for Creative Cloud seems pretty expensive. I like that I can outright buy a license for Pinegrow with the ability to upgrade if and when I want (with the option to not upgrade, if I don't need to). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I love it!"

5/5

What do you like best about Pinegrow Web Editor?

I moved to Pinegrow from Dreamweaver. It's very WYSIWYG. I love working with three windows. I can view all my website files on the left, see the real-time view of the page I'm working on, and set it to show precisely how it will appear in the browsers in the middle of the screen, and view the code on the right of the screen. I also love the code checker/highlight function. Overall, Pinegrow is an excellent product with a great support team and community forum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinegrow Web Editor?

It doesn't have a spell checker, but in the overall scheme of things, that's certainly not a deal-breaker for me. I found a simple work-around for that, so all good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to work with"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Pinegrow Web Editor?

It appealed to me because of how user-friendly and accessible it is. It is easier to build sites and other technological items with the data analysts that Pinegrow offers. The best functions are the editing features, property handling, and component elements— excellent responsive design support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinegrow Web Editor?

It can be a bit sluggish at times. While it is accurate that Pinegrow is much more intuitive than its competitors, the application's price can be a significant drawback because you can quickly find good free alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing tool for front-end developers"

5/5

What do you like best about Pinegrow Web Editor?

As a web developer, I can say that this is a wonderful tool to reduce the time required to build an HTML+CSS website, since you can build everything visually, without (sometimes) even looking at the code.

Also, the Wordpress integration is very great, helping a developer create templates very fast.

It also comes with an option called "Bootstrap Blocks", that are pre-loaded pieces of code that save you a lot of time, specially when it comes to mockups (for production sites you might prefer to code your own styles).

They have video tutorials available that can help you get used to the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinegrow Web Editor?

Some might say that the price is not too high, but considering the benefits, I would highly recommend it.

Even when the interface might seem familiar, it takes some time to get used to all the options available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pinegrow Web Editor:

Even when it is a WYSIWYG tool, it is highly recommended to know a great deal of HTML and CSS before using it, since you need to understand the different options that you will be using.

Also, remember to watch the video tutorials available. They will save you a lot of time while learning the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinegrow Web Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main benefit I've found using Pinegrow, is that I can reduce development time considerably, specially when it comes to build a Wordpress template (assuming you've paid for that option). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An amazing little known tool"

4/5

What do you like best about Pinegrow Web Editor?

I love that when you click on an object, it automatically highlights the code that defines that object. Therefore, you can visually select the thing you want to work on and take it directly to the code that defines that thing, usefully highlighting the entire block that is applied (also useful if you want to copy or delete it). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinegrow Web Editor?

how to assign classes, organize items, etc. It is visual, but the structure and terms are based on coding. This makes sense, although some aspects could have been simplified if the target group were a complete rookie. Actually, I think the main target group is professional programmers who want their workflow to be more effective and fluid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pinegrow Web Editor:

The application is quite affordable for these advanced features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinegrow Web Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

A great thing for me is to be able to edit the code directly when it's faster, but use the graphical user interface when it's more logical or when I can't remember CSS properties, etc. Certain other visual editors restrict full access to the code or allow you to access it but it explodes all the time when you try to do things manually.

"Create webs interactively with Pinegrow"

4/5

What do you like best about Pinegrow Web Editor?

I love how easy it is to use the application and how intuitive it is to create a website with Pinegrow that also uses Bootstrap, another great tool to create static websites that adapt to all sizes and current devices (responsive design ).

Technically it works in a stable way and without problems during the construction of a web, its interface is very beautiful visually and updated. Also it is updated very often which is to be appreciated. It also offers versions for Windows, Linux and MAC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinegrow Web Editor?

The price of the application, although it is a good application I see no reason to pay so much money existing free alternative applications, although it is true Pinegrow is much more intuitive than its competitors the price is exaggerated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pinegrow Web Editor:

I recommend using Pinegrow for web design if you are looking for a way to create websites quickly and with good results, especially if you are creating static HTML websites is a great option because the result is very good thanks to the use of Bootstrap. I also recommend using the trial version for 7 days before taking the step to buy the license. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinegrow Web Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is very fast to create static websites, so it helps us not to waste time that we can use in other tasks, besides the result of the designs is very professional. Even being a WYSIWYG application the code generated for the HTML website is a very competent code if we compare it to that generated by other applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
