Divi vs Zakra Theme comparison [2023] 💥
DIVI THEME (Divi vs Zakra)
Divi is the best-selling Wordpress theme ever...
This Divi-Theme review for [2023] shows you the latest improvements and the eye-catching features of Divi. We're not going to give boring bullet points and lists of options that can be found on the Elegant Themes website although I noticed that they also try to keep their site as exciting as possible, and of course that the Divi website is a true work of art...

DIVI ADVANCED GRADIENTS
Let's start with the 2 newest features that show Divi has the best stuff by far. Anyone who has worked with Photoshop, Corel or similar photo editing programs will know how to build gradients in all the colors of the rainbow. The same is now in Divi called Advanced Gradient Builder, the feature offers unlimited possibilities in terms of gradients. There is of course no theme that has this at the moment, although they will certainly copy it. They do that with everything Divi invents.
DIVI LAYOUT CLOUD
And we will immediately continue with the next feature that has no other theme. The feature is called Divi Layout Cloud. It allows you to instantly use sections, columns, complete pages, images, videos, audios, and anything else you put in the Cloud while you work on any websites you have. The time savings that this feature brings is unprecedented. An absolute must for every professional web designer and certainly design agencies.
DIVI WEBSHOPS
Divi 1-click demo lay-outs
Watch a video right here on how Divi's Woocommerce-Builder proceeds. A decent theme has fantastic options to create a webshop with it and that is more than the case with Divi. The theme gives an incredible amount of options to customize product and category pages by means of the WooBuilder and the WooModules. View here all 229 different Divi-demos (1685 templates). Insane numbers!
The Divi demo library contains many beautiful shop layouts that you can install in your project with 1 click. Complete styling of your shop is really a piece of cake with the WooBuilder. Everything can be adjusted very quickly at the front-end. All available demos were of course made with the Divibuilder discussed below, along with Elementor Pro considered to be the best page builders out there.
DIVIBUILDER (Pagebuilder)
The DiviBuilder is the perfect page builder for Wordpress and an absolute pleasure to work with. The page builder works very precisely, which means on the website itself it looks just like where you are working. Everything you want to use such as elements and effects are easy to find and you can build pages very quickly with it.
If you purchase Divi, the DiviBuilder is also included as a separate plug-in in your package and can be used in other themes. Test the DiviBuilder right now on the Divi website click the purple "Try it for free" button at the top.
DIVI THEME SPEED
In the meantime, no theme wants to lag behind in terms of loading times or speed, as Google attaches more and more value to it. Divi recently received a speed upgrade and has become one of the fastest loading themes available for Wordpress. Unbelievable that 1 theme can beat all other themes on all fronts... Watch here a video and more information about Divi's Speed Upgrade.
DIVI EFFECTS
With Divi Effect, images can be tuned at lightning speed. Change the exposure, colors, invert the image, apply sepia colors or make the image transparent (percents can be set). Changing images in Divi and not in a PC program ensures that your image remains undamaged and can be further modified quickly at any time. We give 10 points for this tool in this Divi Theme review.
DIVI TRANSFORMS
Watch here a video and more information about Divi's Transforms here. With Divi Transforms practically everything is possible on texts and images, rotate, mirror, skew object just like in Photoshop's "CTRL+T". A fantastic tool that has no other theme as far as I know.
DIVI SHAPE DIVIDERS
This feature really makes your website shine, the competition will be jealous of your site. It used to be quite a challenge even for professional web designers to get such shapes into blocks. This is no longer the case with the DiviBuilder, because anyone without technical knowledge can now do this with the greatest of ease, including you! Watch here a video and more information about Divi's Shape Dividers.
DIVI BULK EDIT
Colleagues who have been building websites for years also remember how we used to repeat actions endlessly. If you had 6 blocks that you wanted to change the style of, you had to work 6 times. That is no longer necessary with Divi's Bulk Edit, you can make the adjustments for all 6 blocks at the same time. This feature saves you an incredible amount of time. Watch here a video and more information about Divi's Bulk Editing.
DIVI DROP SHADOWS
You no longer need Photoshop to create shadows for images. Photoshop is not only a very expensive program but also takes much longer than Divi's Drop Shadows. Another advantage is that the original image remains intact and additional styles can be added later or the shadow can be adjusted if necessary. Watch herea video and more information about Divi's Drop Shadows.
DIVI SPLIT TESTING
Every business wants as many leads and conversions as possible, so they regularly try to improve pages to get more out of them. However, Divi Leads makes it a lot easier for you. You can create as many different versions of a layout or text as you want. These are then presented alternately to your visitors. Divi keeps track of the statistics for you which versions score better. Watch here a video and more information about Divi's Split Testing.
Divi and the Divibuilder have so many gadgets and options that I could make the page of this Divi Theme Review 3x as long, but the best is to have a look here at the Divi Website and see the rest there.
DIVI THEME REVIEW: PRICING
At Divi you do not buy a theme, but a membership. This membership gives you access to 86 premium themes including Divi and a number of top plugins and a library of images. In terms of price, this certainly makes Divi more interesting than other themes, since it is only slightly more expensive per year than an average other theme. These "other themes" usually only provide support for half a year, which in my opinion is very little. After that, you usually pay a lot to get extra support.
If you can spend $249 one-time, you have the complete package for life with lifetime support. Especially for companies with a few websites, this is by far the most interesting solution as you will never need anything else to build perfect websites. Using this link you'll get at least 10% discount.
DIVI THEME REVIEW: SUMMARY
I'm going to keep it short and sweet here in the conclusion of this Divi theme review for [2023]. With Divi you get value for money, it is a well-oiled machine for building websites from the ground. Divi has no weaknesses or shortcomings. Regardless of whether you are creating a webshop, a corporate website or a private site, you will always be delighted that you have purchased Divi. Join the 806,875+ members they already have, you won't regret it.
Divi offers a one-month money-back guarantee, so if you don't like it, you can always ask for your money back. Other themes do not give you this, but Divi knows that you will be satisfied.
ZAKRA THEME (Zakra vs Divi)
The Zakra Theme has a free as well as a Pro-version. The free version is very popular and as it should be, the Pro version is of course 5x better. I will discuss both versions. Zakra himself states to be a super-fast loading light-weight theme with 60 great demo websites that can be installed with 1 click.
Zakra theme review: Rating
Ehen we go to Wordpress.org and check Zakra's rating there, is it practically 5 out of 5. There are few themes with a better rating because there are out of 400 people who have given a rating, only 6 or 7 people who voted less than 5 stars. Zakra has been installed on more than 60,000+ websites and 474 people gave a rating, so that is very reliable.
Zakra theme review: Demos
Just like any other self-respecting WP theme these days, Zakra has ready-to-use demo websites that can be installed with 1 click, Zakra currently offers 60. Some of these are only available to Pro users. The Zakra demos are of very good quality and the speed of the site is maintained with these themes. You can see the Zakra demos live via their website.
The nice thing about demos is that you can make a quick start with them. The website is already ready, but still with the wrong photos and texts in principle. So place your logo in it, adjust the texts and photos and you are well on your way to having your own site.
Zakra theme review: Webshops
With Zakra, the integration of the popular Woocommerce is a piece of cake and the theme is completely prepared. Zakra gives you the opportunity to style the shop pages how you want without any HTML knowledge. The web shops that are built with this theme have a very professional appearance.
Zakra theme review: Speed
In the meantime, no theme wants to lag behind in terms of loading times or speed, as Google attaches more and more value to this. Zakra is therefore also built with a fast code that ensures good loading times in browsers. Zakra has the Vanilla Javascript instead of jQuery which is about 25% faster, this is quite unique although more and more top themes use it. You can see from the images above that Zakra with a cache plug-in performs extremely well in all tests, these are top loading times.
Zakra theme review: Page builder
The Zakra theme comes standard with the Gutenberg page builder. Although the theme is compatible with any of the best page builders out there, I recommend Elementor page builder. If it fits your budget the pro version otherwise the free version which is also very good.
Zakra theme review: Header builder
Zakra has extensive settings that allow you to style the header exactly the way you want it. No technical or HTML knowledge is required to adjust the header. You can see in the image above what the Zakra header has to offer. Of course, this only applies to the pro version.
Zakra theme review: Other features
Apart from the very good header options, Zakra has a lot more but I want to keep this review short and sweet so that you don't get bored, further information can of course be read on their own site, much better than here. Zakra Pro offers you quite a few different blog layouts, a great footer builder, all types of sidebars, special fonts, and good menu options although I don't believe they offer a mega menu.
Zakra theme review: Conclusion
I think the Zakra theme is already very good as a free version. The pro version is also great although there are of course better themes. The theme offers beautiful demos, many customization options. The theme works perfectly with Elementor together, my favorite page builder. This is one of the better themes available for Wordpress.
Zakra vs Divi conclusion
You have come to the end of my Divi vs Zakra comparison. If you want to build a fast loading site that also looks good, Zakra is a great theme, and a lot is possible with it. The problem is that there is such a large and good team behind Divi and so much money is earned with it that in principle no theme can compete with it. Divi also wins on all separate points, except for loading time. Quality aside, Divi is much more affordable in price if you want to use it on multiple sites. Zakra requires a separate license for each site, which of course quickly becomes very expensive.
