Verdict & Best For
Quick Verdict
Divi is a powerful visual builder with excellent agency value (unlimited site lifetime license at $249). Divi 5, officially released February 2026, is a complete architectural rewrite removing legacy shortcodes in favor of HTML5, promising major performance gains. The ecosystem is in transition — Divi 4 remains supported but new builds should target Divi 5. Of the 10 reported issues, most relate to the legacy 4.x branch.
Ohio is a visually stunning and highly flexible theme with excellent customer support and frequent updates, making it a strong choice for creative agencies and portfolios. However, it suffers from significant out-of-the-box performance issues, particularly on mobile with Elementor, and has known conflicts with popular plugins like Yoast SEO and WPML that require technical workarounds.
