Using a design from one website to another is tedious, especially when you are working with a team.
Yes, it may help you save time from redoing the design yourself on a new website. But imagine if you can save and use various templates from one location, no matter how many websites you have or how many teams you run?
Well, that is exactly what Templately
Let’s dig deeper!
What is Templately? Templately is an Elementor templates factory and a cloud workspace that is perfect for people and teams that design a lot of websites using templates.
If you use Elementor, then you must have heard of Essential Add-ons created by the same team that is behind the success of Essential Add-ons.
Since the templates are designed with unique and advanced elements from Essential Add-ons, you can already see how good their products are. What you get are absolutely beautiful templates!
However, the real gem about Templately is its cloud workspace functionality. It doubles as a cloud management tool for templates where you can create designs, upload them to the cloud, and use those designs whenever you want.
Let’s dive into the details of Templately’s features.
Feature: Template Factory Templately’s library is massive, with more than a thousand templates and more than a hundred packs, enjoyed by more than 30,000 users (and will positively increase as more people get to know this plugin).
One simple look at Templately’s own website design and you will get the feeling of how gorgeous their templates are.
For example, one of their featured items is “Pawwelfare
This website template pack is built using Elementor and Essential Addons. It is completely customizable even for those that do not know anything about coding. It is also responsive, loads quickly, and is ready to use.
It also has premade pages including:
Home About Pet Adoption Donate Blog Blog Details Contact That is only one example of their template packs. On Templately’s homepage, you can see everything that they offer and even filter them out according to blocks, pages, packs, tags, and dependency. You can also use the search function to look for templates that fit your needs.
As for blocks, Templately has templates for header, footer, hero, block, and Gutenberg. If you only need templates for individual pages, you can also filter to see only pages for archive, single product, single post, landing page, and other single pages.
It is also important to look at the dependency part, since there may be plugins that you will need in order to customize certain templates. For example, there are a lot of templates where you will need Elementor Pro and Essential Addons Pro, which as you know, are not free.
Feature: Cloud Workspace This feature is the ultimate gamechanger as template factories do not have any cloud functionalities. Because of this, it will be surprising if some of them, especially the popular ones, end up copying Templately’s cloud workspace.
From the name itself, this cloud workspace is exactly what you are thinking — it will allow you to save and store your page templates and use them whenever you want to on whatever website.
With this, you will definitely be able to increase your productivity and save time that you otherwise spend in retrofitting every single template that you have and develop a way to use them on every website.
The benefit of this cloud workspace is even more profound when working with teams on multiple websites. For example, you may have to send a template to another member and he or she will then apply that template to his or her assigned website or page.
But with Templately’s cloud workspace, you can invite your team members and give them access to your cloud. That means no more sending templates back and forth. Your team will be able to see all the templates that you want to share with them.
