BeTheme vs Jupiter, two very popular Wordpress themes for years. Both Jupiter and BeTheme are currently among the best-selling themes on the Themeforest marketplace. Both themes also receive a very good rating from their users. Let's see which theme offers more value for money.
JUPITER THEME (BeTheme vs Jupiter)
We start in this Jupiter vs BeTheme comparison with the Jupiter Theme which does not automatically mean it would be better. This Jupiter review will show you what a great theme Jupiter is. With 168.104+ sales the Jupiter theme of Artbees from the start in 2013 has been one of the best-selling WordPress themes at ThemeForest. Apart from the fact that it has been in the top for almost 7 years, it has a beautiful 4.75 star rating.

Jupiter not only has everything to be able to build a stunning website, it was built on speed. The pages load very quickly and it has a good SEO.

Artbees is steadily continuing to improve this theme and provide more demos. So the totally new version Jupiter X was recently released with lots of new gadgets and now supported by the Elementor pagebuilder. We are enthusiastic about the use of the Elementor page builder because in principle there is no better one besides the Divi Builder. Elementor also offers extra extensions that will be of great help to you when building your blog, webshop or website. The Elementor pagebuilder offers enormous flexibility and together with the Customizer tools in Jupiter X is that everything you need for your project.
Jupiter X-theme review complete list of functions
Jupiter X currently has no less than 240+ different demo sites. These are divided into 8 categories. These demo sites are built using the Elementor page builder which means that this can also be used to edit the demos. Elementor page builder is the tool for making quick adjustments and building new content.
Jupiter X comes bundled with a number of top extensions to give even more power to Elementor:
- Raven - Raven has been developed by Artbees itself to add extra widgets to Elementor with which one can adjust the header & footer without having to buy the PRO version from Elementor.
- Jet add-ons - More of the same, also the JET plug-ins add more widgets and functions to Elementor to make editing your site even easier.
Built into Jupiter X are a number of premium plug-ins - including, for example, the 3 best slider plug-ins that can be found for Wordpress: Revolution Slider, LayerSlider and Master Slider, and the Bakery pagebuilder.
Header, footer and page content can easily be adjusted with Elementor. The same goes for the portfolio and blog pages thanks to the Elementor widgets that were added via the add-on plug-ins. The Worpdress Customizer is used for all other types of adjustments such as global styling, single blog pages or Woocommerce shopping pages.
Importing templates
We will now import one of the demo sites we discussed above in this Jupiter X review. After installing the Jupiter X theme you immediately install the required and additional plug-ins via the installation wizard.
Via the Template Area (Jupiter X >> Templates) you can quickly import a demo website by clicking on "import" and then selecting your desired demo. It is possible to preview the demo first.
New Elementor widgets and templates
Another advantage of the bundled Elementor extensions of the new Jupiter X is that you get a lot of new widgets available:
In addition, you also get new Jupiter X block templates that you can use, as well as:
Elementor Header Builder
To help you create your header, Jupiter X starts with 20 different header-templates to pick from. From there you can further customize things with your new Elementor widgets. Jupiter X supports mega menus, sticky headers, and transparent headers. And you also get the option to use different headers, depending on the device of a visitor. For example, you can choose to use a side menu with sliders on mobile devices.
Blog, archive & portfolio builder
The bundled Elementor add-ons also give you a number of widgets with which you can display blog posts and portfolio items on your website. You can use this to construct special archive pages. For example, first ask yourself what kind of content should be displayed, say blog posts vs portfolio items. Afterwards you can style the rest with Elementor and choose which elements to include such as the name of the author.
Jupiter X WordPress Customizer
For other changes we use the Wordpress Customizer with all elements installed by Jupiter. Instead of using the standard sidebar control in the Customizer, we use the custom pop-up setting frame in Jupiter X which appears as soon as you click on an item in the customizer:
Scrolling vertically can make it difficult to use the WordPress Customizer. The pop-up can be dragged across the screen so that it does not get in the way of what you are doing. The 2 most important functions in the customizer are:
Blog single layout
The first of these 2 functions is the management of your blog posts (including the archive, but adapting with Elementor) regarding layout and design. Jupiter X already comes with different choices of beautiful blog layouts. Multiple functions can be switched on and off and metadata can be added. The buttons for social sites and related messages immediately caught the eye of writer of theme reviews. These can also be turned off if desired.
WooCommerce-shop customizer
Woocommerce shop owners will be particularly pleased with the many customization options for both store pages and product pages:
Other Customizer settings
In addition to the settings for Woocommerce and the single blog page in the customizer, it naturally has many more settings such as: colors, fonts, header behavior, sidebar settings, footer settings.
The 404 and maintenance page can also be adjusted, which even makes it possible to use an Elementor template for these 2 functions. A third-party maintenance mode plugin is superfluous with Jupiter X because that function is already included.
Jupiter X page/post level check
Via the meta-box post options you get additional settings in Jupiter X if you work with a single post or page. This offers extra flexibility when working with the WP editor and Elementor. Settings that can be adjusted here include spacing, sidebar usage, adjusting the layout including its width. Switching styles, header, footer or title bar settings, related posts and social can also be set here.

BE-THEME THEME (BeTheme vs Jupiter)
In this Be Theme review, we're diving into the good, the bad, and the stylish of this fabulous theme. First thing you'll notice? Its design is like the little black dress of themes – simple yet oh-so-chic. Once you start tinkering with it, you'll find that tweaking this theme is easier than teaching a cat to nap. It's that user-friendly! Stay tuned as we unpack the cornucopia of features this theme has tucked under its elegant sleeve in the rest of this review.
Be Theme review lay-out
The Be Theme is like a digital buffet with an all-you-can-eat offer of 600+ different demo websites, all installable with just one click. It's like having a wardrobe with an outfit for every occasion – you'll find several fitting themes for each niche to kick-start your own digital fashion show. As a web designer, it's like having a secret treasure chest; I can always find the perfect layout for client websites faster than a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat!
A few demo-examples
Let's keep it real: the Be Theme is like the perfect buddy for creating a cool, functional site. But, if you're aiming to craft a website that's the digital equivalent of a Hollywood blockbuster, with all the glitz and glamour, you might want to explore other premium theme stars. For reviews of those red-carpet-ready themes, check out our overview of top themes for [2025]. Think of the Be Theme as the friendly neighborhood hero, perfect for beginners and those looking to make a solid, good-looking website without the complexity of a blockbuster production.
The mastermind behind the BeTheme is Muffingroup, an elite seller on Themeforest, strutting their stuff with around 15 products, mostly themes. Muffingroup has racked up accolades like 'recommended author', 'monthly bestseller', 'power elite author', and 'weekly bestseller'. It's like they're the rock stars of the theme world! With an average rating of 4.62, which is like getting a standing ovation in the theme community, the Be Theme has been the star of the show, with 267,893+ sales since 2014.
Muffin Builder, a drag & drop pagebuilder
The Be Theme comes with its own backstage crew, the Muffin Builder, to quickly zhuzh up your site. This drag & drop page builder is more than just satisfactory – it's like having a magic wand for your website. With all the necessary options and the choice of 600+ layouts, adding items to your pages is as easy and fun as playing with LEGO bricks – but with more impressive results!
Be Theme review: WP Bakery Pagebuilder
If you're not a big fan of the Muffin Builder, don't fret – the Be Theme also rolls out the red carpet for the WP Bakery pagebuilder. This page builder is like the Hollywood celebrity of page builders, famous for its versatility and ease of use. Imagine having the option to choose between a cozy coffee shop (Muffin Builder) and a fancy café (WP Bakery) – both serve great coffee, but the ambiance is just a tad different.
WP Bakery also uses a drag & drop system and is a fantastic tool for creating stunning pages with artistic freedom. To buy it separately would cost you a pretty penny – $64, to be exact. Personally, it's one of my favorite page builders, as it struts its stuff in practically all the top themes and comes with a plethora of add-ons. It's like the Swiss Army knife in the world of page builders!
New: Elementor compatibility
Since [2025], the BeTheme has also been equipped with Elementor, and with quite a few extra widgets as shown below.
Video and Parallax Backgrounds
The BeTheme is like a magician with its parallax backgrounds, creating an enchanting experience for your site's audience. Imagine your website as a stage, where full-width and video backgrounds are the spotlight that adds drama and flair. With a well-styled page, your site can don a tuxedo and look as professional as a James Bond movie. During the writing of this BeTheme review, it's clear that this quality really makes the theme stand out in the crowd.
20+ Different Header Styles
The Be Theme brings more versatility to the table than a chameleon at a color festival. With over 20 standard header styles, it's like having a wardrobe full of hats – there's one for every occasion. The logo and menu aren't just stuck at the top; they're free to roam left or right, giving you the creative freedom of a jazz musician. The customization doesn’t stop there; fonts, sizes, colors - it's all malleable. The Be Theme even lets you mix and match headers and logos on different pages, like a DJ mixing tracks.
Shortcode Generator
Imagine having a magic wand for your website – that's the shortcode generator in the Be Theme. It can conjure up a shortcode for practically every function in the theme. You can sprinkle these magical codes across pages, posts, or widgets, integrating features with the ease of a fairy godmother waving her wand.
BeTheme Extras
The Be Theme is like a Swiss Army knife for your website, packed with features. Picture this: 600+ different fonts (that's more fonts than a typographer’s dream), custom Widgets for every nook and cranny of your site, and the Revolution Slider, which is like the roller coaster of sliders – thrilling and dynamic. WooCommerce Ready?
Check. It's like setting up shop in the busiest digital marketplace. Got content in a different language? No problemo, RTL support has got your back. The Mega Menu is like an all-you-can-eat buffet for your navigation needs, and the visual icon selector is like picking candy from a candy store.
Unlimited sidebars? It's like having infinite shelves for all your goodies. And let’s not forget the cherry on top: Bonus Premium Plug-ins, a maintenance mode that's as sleek as a 'We'll be back soon' sign, Google Maps Styles that dress up your location pins, and BuddyPress Ready for social butterflies. Plus, styles for ContactForm7 and Gravity Forms, making forms feel like a walk in the park. It's like having a digital tool belt with all the fanciest gadgets.

BeTheme vs Jupiter conclusion
First of all, thank you for reading this Jupiter vs BeTheme comparison to the end. Jupiter comes with the Elementor pagebuilder free version, upgrading to Elementor Pro is definitely recommended. The BeTheme comes with its own MuffinBuilder, of course Elementor is much better. What BeTheme does offer is the huge library of demo layouts. This can be attractive for web designers to be able to quickly create websites for any kind of niche. The problem there is, of course, that each website has to be purchased separately, which quickly becomes very expensive.
The problem these themes have is that there are much better themes like Astra and Divi which are also sold at more attractive prices. Before making up your mind, I recommend that you read my best themes for [2025] .
