## FAQ

### Does Nelio A/B Testing slow down my site?

Barely. All heavy processing happens on our servers, and the plugin integrates with
major caching plugins to minimize load.

### Can I use it with page builders like Elementor or Gutenberg?

Yes. Nelio A/B Testing works with all major page builders, including Elementor and
the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg).

### How many tests can I run on the free plan?

As many as you want. However, keep in mind that the free plan supports a limited
number of page views per month, which means you should probably focus your efforts
on one test only. Upgrade to premium to test high-traffic sites, run tests with 
more variants, and unlock additional premium features.

I added Nelio about a month ago. Our wordpress theme made install a bit complicated
but Nelio support has been super communicative and helpful every step of the way.
I am now able to run several detailed tests throughout my website each month and
slowly chip away at getting a better and better conversion rate. Thanks Nelio!

I’ve been testing the Nelio A/B Testing plugin and I’m very impressed with the experience.
The free version works great and lets you try all the main features with limited
traffic — perfect to explore its potential and check compatibility with your site.
I also upgraded to the paid version, and activation was seamless — premium features
were enabled instantly. Support has been fast and effective whenever I had questions
or needed help. The plugin is easy to install and use, provides valuable insights,
and is thoughtfully designed for running A/B tests, heatmaps, and user behavior 
tracking. I also checked site performance and found it has minimal impact compared
to other similar tools. In short: a powerful, easy-to-use solution for optimizing
your website and understanding user behavior.

David is very helpful and very fast with his replies. The tool works good and as
intended. Easy to create A/B tests in Wordpress with many different options and (
multiple) goals. Amazing if you use it for wordpress with Hubspot forms as they 
work seamlessly together.

The support team or the developer, who replied to our email, was very helpful. They
answered quickly to our email asking for support. Also they were very solution oriented
and helped us fix the problem unlike some other plugins that just says solve it 
yourself.

Nelio has enabled me to embed A/B testing at the core of my business. Now, I test
all the important changes to ensure they generate incremental revenue. Setting up
a test is very straightforward, and Nelio’s team is exceptional in terms of support.
