Still raw: themes rely too much on Elementor
I was hoping for a replacement for MasterStudy LMS as the theme with the plugin is simply too slow. Academy LMS advertises its plugin and theme as light weight and fast. That might be true, first speed tests were kinda positive, but then I tried to switch the theme and realized that Academy LMS relies heavily on Elementor and even other plugins such as Essential addons. These have a direct influence on performance and make the use of the theme complex. For instance: main menu appears only in an Elementor header and not in the standard menu location.
As a result, I switched back to my original MasterStudy settings.
Please create Demos based on Gutenberg and nothing else. I expect here beautiful, well-designed homepages.
Regarding the booking feature: cool that there is a general availability. But if you work with several instructors, then you need to allow each of them an individual calendar that would apply to all of their courses. Currently, you can only set one booking calendar per course. I believe, it is a very challenging thing to develop a whole calendar, so please integrate with Amelia to solve that.
I will keep this for now and observe the development over the next month or so and then decide if I go for a refund or not. At the current state, it´s unfortunately not usable for me, which is mainly due to the heavy reliance (of the theme) on Elementor.

May 9, 2024Hi there,
First of all, you doing some mistakes.
Our LMS is super fast rather to other LMS. If you want to use Our LMS then it’s not required to use our Demo. We have no priority to make the demo super fast because it is user choice, how users build their sites.
You should compare Academy LMS functionality with other LMS. We have a lot of shortcodes. you can use that shortcode inside any page builder. Gutenberg Integration is under development.
We have Elementor integration that is true if you going to build a full website then you need to use another Elementor third-party plugin. it depends on your requirements.
Our Theme is just a simple theme, having no extra UI. We make it very simple way as like Hello-Elementor. That’s why you need to use the Elementor header footer builder plugin to build the theme header.
Our LMS worked with any standard theme. So you can use any theme.
Your point isn’t valid. You can come to our support center. Our team will help you. Don’t worry https://academylms.net/support/
We will be happy if you reconsider this review: https://tacochange.paperform.co/
Thanks.
