Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks

83 Quality Score

Active Installs

21/30

50,000 active installs is modest compared to top alternatives like Elementor at 10 million, but enough to confirm a steady user base.

Update Freshness

25/25

A fresh update in April 2026 and compatibility tested against WordPress 6.9.4 suggest the developer is actively keeping the plugin current.

User Rating

14/15

A 94 out of 100 rating from 115 users is strong, though the sample size is small relative to plugins with thousands of reviews.

Support Health

8/15

Two support threads with zero resolved is a clear weak spot and suggests users may struggle to get help when issues arise.

WP Compatibility

15/15

Full marks for compatibility: it supports WordPress 5.8 onward, PHP 5.6 onward, and has been tested against the latest 6.9.4 release.

What It Does

Getwid is a collection of more than 40 custom blocks for the WordPress block editor, covering things like accordions, testimonials, pricing tables, image sliders, and icon boxes. It also ships with a library of pre-built block templates you can drop into a page and tweak. In practice, it lets you assemble richer pages inside Gutenberg without needing a separate full page builder like Elementor.

Who It's For

It is a good fit for small business owners, freelancers, and content marketers who want more design flexibility than core Gutenberg offers but are not ready to adopt a heavyweight page builder. Agencies building quick client sites in Gutenberg will also appreciate the ready-made templates. Users on older sites stuck on PHP 5.6 will find the low minimum requirements useful.

Who Should Skip It

If you already rely on Elementor, Spectra, or Kadence, Getwid is largely redundant. Users who need professional, timely support should look elsewhere, given the 0 percent support thread resolution rate.

The Bottom Line

Getwid delivers a solid set of Gutenberg blocks and templates at a respectable 82.64 quality score, with excellent maintenance and compatibility. The unresolved support situation and smaller install base hold it back from competing head-to-head with Elementor, Spectra, or Kadence. Worth trying on a staging site, but factor in the support gap before relying on it for client work.

Pick Elementor if you want a full visual page builder with a much larger ecosystem and ten million installs behind it.

Spectra Legacy – Gutenberg Blocks 95/100

Pick Spectra if you want a more popular Gutenberg block library with stronger community traction and a higher overall score.

Kadence Blocks — Page Builder Toolkit for Gutenberg Editor 89/100

Pick Kadence when you want Gutenberg-native blocks paired with deeper theme integration and a 600,000 install user base.

Starter Templates – AI-Powered Templates for Elementor & Gutenberg 89/100

Pick Starter Templates if your main need is importing full pre-built site designs rather than individual blocks.

Classic Widgets 89/100

Pick Classic Widgets if your only goal is restoring the old widget screen, since it solves a far narrower problem than Getwid.
