We are comparing Woodmart vs Avada here. Two themes that are sold on the same marketplace. These are both popular multipurpose themes, but Woodmart is specialized in webshop-design. Which is the more attractive theme for you of these two?
The Woodmart Theme
In this Woodmart Theme Review, the pros and cons of this theme quickly become clear. We discuss all important features in a nutshell so that you quickly have a good idea whether Woodmart is suitable for you without having to read a boring article with endless texts.
Woodmart Theme's Rating
Let’s start with the rating of the Theme. Other people have been using it for years and the rating indicates how satisfied they were with this product. Woodmart gets a 4.94 out of 5 rating on the marketplace where it is sold which I think is the highest rating I’ve ever seen there.
Woodmart Theme Review Demos
Woodmart features beautiful demo layouts. These can be imported into your website within a minute. The number of 70+ complete website demos is above average. The vast majority of these demos are for shops. Of course, Fashion, Electronics and Furniture are also shopping demos.
Woodmart Theme & Woocommerce
As indicated earlier, Woodmart is a real Woocommerce, which means that not only are the demos for shops beautifully styled, but you can easily adjust the layout of the products. In the view below you can see that this is done by means of the Elementor page builder.
The result are beautiful shop pages.
Page Builders
Woodmart Theme Load Speed
Both the CSS and Javascript have been greatly improved since the last version. The theme produces pretty fast loading times, which is more than average. The image shows the results indicated by them themselves. If you do a test yourself, make sure you have installed a good Cache Plugin otherwise you will get distorted results.
Woodmart Theme Header Builder
More and more themes are coming with a real header builder that gives you total control over the header and this is certainly a great asset to a theme. In the meantime, this should not be missing in a theme, and with Woodmart you are in the right place.
Don’t feel like fiddling with the header yourself? Then simply choose one of the many ready-made headers that Woodmart offers you.
Woodmart Review Search
There used to be a plugin for that, now you can just search by product code or SKU code.
Woodmart Theme Review Conclusion
The Woodmart Theme has many more features to offer such as Ajax Cart, Mega Menu, Quick Shopping, Sliders, Social Login, Multi-language, White Label and more. If your interest has been piqued, read on on their own site via the button above. As the rating suggested at the beginning, this is a great theme and I personally couldn’t find anything bad about it. What I do want to note is that the theme requires a separate license for every website you have. This quickly becomes expensive if you have multiple websites. A Theme like Divi would then be a better alternative.
Let’s continue this Woodmart versus Avada Review with the Avada Theme.
The Avada Theme
One thing is for sure, Avada is the best selling theme on the infamous Themeforest marketplace. Unfortunately I have some doubts about the enormous sales figures since I have been advertising it for years but earn practically nothing from it. I have had the theme in my collection for about 8 years now and have very good experiences with it. It will certainly sell well, but the marketplace where they sell their theme is just very dodgy, which can be clearly seen on the reviews on Sitejabber, for example.
Avada Theme Review Ratings
Avada is a popular theme and has a very good rating, on average 4.77 out of 5. However, there are themes such as Divi that score practically 5 out of 5, and there are also themes on the same marketplace that come above 4.9.
Avada's Page Builder
There are several lesser-known but good page builders that have been developed by the builders of themes themselves. For example, the Flatsome Theme has its UX-Builder and Avada in turn has the FusionBuilder. Below you can see the page builder working on a testimonial. Below that a screenshot of the live visual page builder in action.
Avada's Elements
The Avada Theme gives you more than 120 elements (also called widgets). That is a large number, quite a bit more than most themes offer, and then we are talking about other top themes.
Avada Review: Demo Websites
The number of pre-prepared demo websites or starter templates is also quite high. Choose one of the 86 1-click demos to save a lot of time by not having to start your project from scratch. Below in the image you can see how this works, just select a demo and install it. A mebership license is of course required.
Avada Theme Review: Speed
As can be seen below, Avada shows astonishingly good results in a speed test at GtMetrix. Avada offers you a section in the backend where you can set many factors that influence the loading time of your website, the so-called “Performance Wizard”. For optimal speed it is always important to install one of the best cache plugins.
Avada's Form Builder
Avada actually has everything in it so that you don’t have to buy an extra plugin as seen here is a Form Builder with which you can quickly build exactly the forms you need for information requests or call-to-action purposes. The feature already has a large number of prepared forms that you can get up and running very quickly.
Avada Theme Review Conclusion
As mentioned, Avada is packed with features and it is not for nothing that it is one of the best-selling WordPress Themes, and has been for years. I can certainly recommend the theme as long as it is for only 1 website. The theme has a major weakness and that is the platform on which it is sold. This marketplace has a very bad reputation and takes a very high commission. This means that Avada cannot offer special deals, but requires a separate license for each website you have. This, of course, quickly becomes very expensive. Much cheaper alternatives are, for example, Divi and Astra. These are almost even better and you can use them on as many sites as you want.
Avada vs Woodmart Conclusion
Avada and Woodmart are all great themes. Avada has better sales, but Woodmart has a slightly better rating. Both are multipurpose themes. I like Woodmart’s demo designs better, especially those for shops. I also prefer to work with Elementor over Avada’s Fusion-Builder. My choice falls on Woodmart between these 2 themes, but only if we are building a shop, otherwise I prefer to work with Astra or Divi.
