What do others say about Thrive Content Builder?

 
This is the first time, I found a lot of difference in the opinion between the reviewers who reviewed the product and the users who have used it. Most of the time, the opinion of the reviews and users will be almost the same. While almost all the reviews were good and positive and some even gave a full rating for Thrive Architect, most of the users have expressed disinterest in using it for building their website.

 
I also observed that those users faced issues with Thrive Architect are those who upgraded to it from the previous version Thrive Content Builder. There were no major complaints from those users who were using it for the first time. Please find below some of the positive testimonials for Thrive Architect.
