Before After Image Comparison Slider for WPBakery Page Builder

42 Quality Score

Active Installs

14/30

With roughly 1,000 active installs, it sits in a small niche largely because it is locked to WPBakery users, which caps its addressable market.

Update Freshness

2/25

The plugin was last updated on 5 November 2024 and is tested against WordPress 6.7.5, so it is reasonably current, though the maintenance track record is shallow given only one notable update window.

User Rating

11/15

A 76 out of 100 from 23 ratings is a solid average, suggesting users who tried it were generally satisfied with the core functionality.

Support Health

8/15

Zero support threads opened and zero resolved is essentially an absence of data, which makes it impossible to gauge how the developer handles troubleshooting requests.

WP Compatibility

8/15

It requires WordPress 5.0 and PHP 7.4, which is a reasonable baseline, but the WPBakery-only dependency and lack of testing across other builders limit its flexibility.

What It Does

Before After Image Comparison Slider for WPBakery adds a draggable slider element to WPBakery Page Builder that lets visitors swipe between two images to reveal a visual difference. It is built specifically as a WPBakery addon, so it will not work with the default WordPress block editor or other page builders. Setup is done through the WPBakery backend where you supply two image URLs and adjust basic slider settings.

Who It's For

This plugin is a fit for small business owners and freelancers who already use WPBakery Page Builder on their site and want a quick way to add before and after comparisons for services like renovations, cosmetic work, detailing, or fitness transformations. If you only need a handful of sliders and are comfortable with a one-off add-on tied to WPBakery, it will get the job done without extra bloat.

Who Should Skip It

If you use Elementor, the block editor, or any builder other than WPBakery, skip this plugin entirely since it is a WPBakery-exclusive addon with no standalone shortcode support. Sites needing galleries, video comparisons, or advanced labelling should also look at broader alternatives like BEAF.

The Bottom Line

At a quality score of 44.99 out of 100, this is a narrow utility plugin that does one thing for WPBakery users and does it acceptably, but it lacks the install base, support history, and feature breadth of competitors like BEAF. It is worth considering only if you are committed to WPBakery and want a minimal slider without extras. Everyone else will be better served by a builder-agnostic or more popular alternative.

Pick BEAF instead if you want a builder-agnostic solution with 30,000 installs, galleries, and a much higher quality score of 82.25.

Before After Image Comparison Slider for Elementor 78/100

Choose this Elementor sibling plugin if your site runs Elementor rather than WPBakery, and you want a similar lightweight comparison slider experience.

Advanced Image Comparison for Elementor

Opt for this if you use Elementor and need more advanced comparison features such as multi-image sliders or richer labelling options.

WP Before After Image Slider 67/100

Select this alternative if you want comparison sliders that work outside any page builder and include interactive image and video comparisons.

Twenty20 Image Before-After 57/100

Go with Twenty20 if you prefer a free, lightweight, builder-agnostic shortcode plugin backed by 20,000 installs and a long history.
