GENERATEPRESS vs IMPREZA

Impreza vs Generatepress. Here we compare Impreza, a theme that is highly customizable and has hundreds of settings so that you can adjust everything without technical knowledge with one of the absolute fastest Wordpress themes that can be found. We'll discuss them one by one, starting with Generatepress without it meaning it's better.

GENERATEPRESS THEME (Impreza vs Generatepress)

Generatepress is a theme that was specially built to load fast in a browser and it does. Generatepress has practically the same properties as a theme as Astra, the two look are as two drops of water similar. The Generatepress code is compressed only 15kb, so very small.

In the first place, this is a Generatepress Premium review, the free version can be downloaded here but is of course incomplete. So we are talking about the premium version even if we do not always say this. This comes in the form of premium plugins and a library full of 1-click demo websites.

Generatepress Speedtests

In this Generatepress theme review we run a test at GT-Metrix and Pingdom, 2 renowned speed tests to see if it really is that fast. The results are shown in the images below.

At GT-Metrix (above) the Generatepress demo scores 99% and 98%, which means that only 1% of measured sites were faster. Such a small percentage can be quickly influenced by distance to the server and internet speed. At Pingdom (bottom) it also scores 99% and the absolute loading time was 247 msec. A quarter of a second and the complete site has finished loading! These are, of course, phenomenal results. We can safely say that there are no faster Wordpress themes, at the most fast.

Make Generationpress even faster?

Generatepress itself recommends the free plugin Autoptimize which was downloaded more than a million times. Autoptimize allows you to combine and shrink HTML, CSS and JS. It also makes an external file available to the browser with the new code so that browsers can cache it. If you want to know how to set up this plugin perfectly for Generationpress, check the info for that right here.

Generatepress Webshops

Generatepress Premium gives you total control over the popular shop plugin Woocommerce. Pictures speak 100 words fast, watch the video quickly that only takes 2 minutes about Woocommerce adjustments.

Generatepress review Design

The Generatepress design is simple but very beautiful at the same time. Simplicity is the new fashion, people no longer like too much fuss nowadays. Websites should load quickly, look decent on all devices, and everything should work fine. If you were looking for a theme with such features, Generatepress is definitely for you.

Generatepress review Demo designs

Most non-professional people and also some pros like to start a website through a headstart. This can be done by loading a demo website into your theme. Once loaded, it is your job to use the editor to put in your own logo, adjust the images and texts. This way you can quickly create your own design. The image below quickly shows some of these designs, those for Elementor. Those for "without editor", BeaverBuilder et cetera can be quickly found on their own site under the tab "Site library" in the menu.

Generatepress page builders

As a writer of this Generatepress theme review, I definitely recommend working with one of the top page builders. We are talking about Divibuilder, Elementor, Thrive Architect and BeaverBuilder. Personally, I hate the Gutenberg editor anyway, the former WP editor was much better, which can be seen from the millions of plugin downloads from this classic editor.

Schema Markup

Generatepress has Schema Markup built in. You can use this to add microdata to your HTML or let your theme do this for you automatically. This extra information is liked by Google and therefore Google will present your pages in the search results in a better way. Astra PRO, the biggest competitor of Generatepress, also has a plug-in for it named Schema PRO.

If you want to know how easily and quickly you can adjust your site yourself with Generatepress, watch the short video below as quickly (takes 3 minutes).

Generatepress Premium pricing

For $ 50 you get access to all the plugins and demos that you can install on as many sites as you want. This is the price for a year. Each subsequent year you will get a 40% discount on the price, something few themes offer.

Generatepress Review conclusion

Generatepress is very well constructed, installs easily, the same goes for the demos. It loads really fast and is very clear in terms of control panel and operation. The Premium version offers ample modules to be able to work well while building your layout. If you prefer a theme that loads a little slower but where you really don't miss out on options and settings, I recommend you the Divi Theme.

IMPREZA THEME (Impreza vs GeneratePress)

IMPREZA THEME REVIEW

Impreza is one of the Wordpress themes that are rapidly emerging. In this Impreza theme review, we're going to take a look at why Impreza has such an incredibly good rating. This theme is cheaply available and is sold continuously. Incidentally, Impreza only has a premium version.

IMPREZA RATING

The rating that Impreza receives from buyers of the theme is 4.89, a very good score that most themes on the Themeforest Marketplace cannot match. This immediately explains how Impreza has been sold 94.279+ times since 2013.

IMPREZA INSTALLATION AND DEMOS

Impreza offers over 20+ complete website demos and 300+ page demos to jump-start your latest project. This works much faster than starting from scratch, which is something that is practically impossible for beginners to do. Make sure to use this feature because in no time you have a website by replacing only logo, texts and images.

Impreza comes standard with the Bakery Pagebuilder version 5.0. This is a fine-tuned special edition of the WP Bakery Pagebuilder that can be found in Impreza with no fewer than 44 elements. This page builder is certainly good, although I prefer to work with one of the top 3 best page builders.

IMPREZA SPEEDTEST

We perform a speed test with the theme under standard conditions, so without a cache plug-in and all images optimized. This theme does not indicate that it is specialized on loading times, but the above test is certainly good, and of course the score is a lot higher with a good cache plug-in and optimized images.

IMPREZA HEADER BUILDER

The Impreza header builder comes with no less than 14 standard styles from which to choose. Manually implementing a small or large change to this is an option that does not require any technical knowledge. It is also possible to use a different header on all your pages. More and more themes come with a header builder, but this is a very good one.

IMPREZA GRID-BUILDER

Below you can see how easy Impreza can build grids for you for your blogs or portfolios. The GridBuilder comes with an impressive 52 different styles. In addition, this Builder has special filter and sort options. This makes an expensive Grid plugin superfluous.

IMPREZA THEME REVIEW WEBSHOPS

Impreza works perfectly with the Woocommerce plug-in for building web shops. To start with, it is a good idea to integrate one of the special shop demos and then adapt the demo to your house style. Adjustments to the product page layout can be made with Impreza without HTML or PHP knowledge. If you only want to build a showroom without prices, this can be achieved with a simple setting as shown below.

IMPREZA NEWS-WEBSITE

All the top themes have this but very few aside from that unless they are specialized on it like Newspaper. Impreza offers a lot of special options for building news websites as shown in the image below. Categories, post, author, everything can be styled by you at lightning speed, again without any technical knowledge.

IMPREZA THEME REVIEW: CONCLUSION/PRICING

The theme is competitively priced at only $ 39. For the quality of the theme, this is very cheap because the theme can reasonably compete with the best themes that can be found on the Themeforest marketplace. A problem with themes that are sold through this marketplace is that they can only be used on 1 website, which is controlled by licenses that you have to enter. If you own more websites, think of a theme that can be used on an unlimited number of sites and the top 10 stands for best themes in [2023].

Generatepress vs Impreza conclusion

Thanks for reading this Generatepress vs Impreza comparison to the end. These are both excellent themes. As a complete theme, I definitely prefer Generatepress because of its super loading times, easy operation and perfect collaboration with the best page builders out there. For the same price, Generatepress can be used on 100 websites and Impreza only on 1. This only makes Impreza interesting if you only need it for 1 website.

If you prefer a theme that really doesn't lack anything and is also great for building shops, I recommend the Divi Theme by the way, the best theme in the world.
