Salient vs Impreza Theme comparison [2023] 💥
SALIENT vs IMPREZA
Impreza vs Salient, we compare these two themes on their loading speed, number of demos, the quality of their demos, type of page builder used and how customizable they are. Both multipurpose themes have very good sales figures on the Themeforest marketplace. How do these themes relate to each other?
SALIENT THEME (Impreza vs Salient)
To start with, before the start of this Salient Theme review, I have to tell you that the theme has been in the top of the best-selling themes for years now on Themeforest.net. Okay, currently in 11th place, and highest ranking ever maybe in 4th place. There are much better sold themes but Salient has absolute top features that we will take a closer look at.

As a matter of fact, buyers are more enthusiastic about the theme than they are about any other theme. It has an average rating of 4.8 out of 5 based on 5700 ratings. For a premium theme with many options, it is a super-fast loading theme. The builders of Salient are currently claiming one Google Pagespeed a score of 97%, we will come back to this in a moment.
Salient Pagebuilder Editing
<With the latest version 11 of Salient it now has the front-end page builder of the WP Bakery Page Builder. Themes have to keep up with the times, of course, all toppers have frontend pagebuilders with Thrive Architect with the most impressive I think, followed by Divi and Elementor. Instead of images, we show you below in a video how the Salient page builder works. The WP Bakery Pagebuilder (formerly: Visual Composer) is one of the oldest and best out there, let's say the number 4 right now (my opinion).
Salient Theme: PageSpeed and Y-Slow
I did not check it myself with the speedometers concerned, but they show this on their website. Those are really anti-social good scores for Google Pagespeed and Y-Slow (GT-Metrix). Without a doubt impressive. It is very important for a website that it loads quickly, because visitors are impatient nowadays and are quickly away from sites that do not immediately have something to show.
Importable demo websites
Like every self-respecting theme Salient has beautiful easy to import layouts. At the time of writing it says on their site that it concerns 285+ demo layouts. A nice number but not a leader in this area. The layouts do give a very good impression and in the end 1 layout is enough so we will not give any negatives for this in this review for Salient.
Salient Theme: Lazy loading
Lazy loading means that images are not immediately shown in their full resolution. They appear immediately but cloudy and slowly pull up. This ensures that other elements on the page load faster and the entire website is visible to visitors much earlier. Normally people use a plugin or a CDN service for this, but with Salient this is not necessary although there is nothing better than a professional CDN-service if you want a super fast website.
Salient Theme review conclusion
We are not going to bore you here by mentioning all sorts of things that practically have all themes in this Salient review. We have raised the main plus points of the theme and there are few minus points. This can be seen from the extremely high rating that buyers of the theme gave it. The theme is definitely worth its $ 60 that is being asked for it Themeforest.net. That is a standard price for a good theme. Click on the button below to go to their site for more information. As a web designer, Salient is not one of my favorites, but I also have it in my collection and I sometimes use it for customers. You can find my personal favorites in the best Wordpress themes [2023].
IMPREZA THEME (Impreza vs Salient)
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].
Impreza vs Salient conclusion
First of all, thank you for reading this Impreza vs Salient comparison to the end. Both themes are 100% compatible with Elementor page builder which is great, although Impreza does its best to offer a good page builder itself, which works quite well. If you have the money to install Elementor Pro I would definitely do that , the difference between free and pro is very big. Salient is a multipurpose theme with a lot of settings, one has to love this, some hate it because sometimes things are so hard to find. Impreza loads a lot faster than Salient and is also very versatile and easy to adjust. Both themes are well worth their money if it is just for 1 single website.
In case you want to provide 2 or more websites with a theme, I do not recommend both of these themes because then it will be much too expensive, since a separate expensive license will be required for each website. In that case, you can much better use Astra or Divi as it will save you money for multiple sites. In addition, these latter themes are ranked higher in my top 10 themes for [2023] than Salient and Impreza.
