What do you like best about Froala Editor?

The Froala Editor is a solid solution for the final user and developer friendly, it just works, but what I like the most was the integration with our React-based development, this was the main concern and initially planned to build it from scratch, I can say waved a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Froala Editor?

We spent a lot of time with the look & feel customization but at this point is working well, no complaints yet, but have to say that we are not in a production environment yet, at this moment is still under development, maybe later I can come back with more comments. ;-) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Froala Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a lot of customers that want to customize and personalize our dashboards, I mean business people not necessarily developers, so with this component, we add value to our business solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Carl Cruz of Froala Editor

What do you like best about Froala Editor?

It was fairly simple to integrate. The design is good. And it does what we need it to do most of the time. Our use case is simple so the issue is more with the bugs.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Froala Editor?

Bugs that we are not able to resolve. The topbar is jumping up and down for many of our customers. We have not been able to get to support. We are planning to migrate to a different provider eventually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Froala Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

Storing and displaying text online. Had there been no bugs and good support I think I would recommend Froala. Our customers react positively to the editor, expect when it is visually bugging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Froala Editor?

After two years of using this tool, I can say there is nothing good about it. Especially if you are planning to use this for customer-facing products, you're better off with any other editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Froala Editor?

In summary, Froala looks nice, but once you start to work with it, you quickly notice its shortcomings, which are substantial.

It's flakey - seems to break on and off for no reason, it's expensive - the licensing is sneaky and support is limited

It's really not designed in a way that supports effortless document creation or editing.

When we decided to migrate to Froala in 2019, it was much more modern looking than the other editors (tiny, CKEditor), which was a big deal.

Since then, the other editors have caught up with the front-end modernization and from my research, are much better options than Froala.

Don't make the same mistake. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Froala Editor:

Don't do it. In 2019, it was the choice because the other editors looked old and clunky. The lesson I learned, as a PM - look deeper. You can update and overcome clunky, but a bad end-user experience is much harder to address. Stick with one of the other editors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Froala Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a modern editor and Froala was the only modern one available.

Since 2019, all the other editors have had a modern look-and-feel and Froala has fallen behind on support and capabilities.

There are zero benefits and significant drawbacks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Carl Cruz of Froala Editor

Hi! We hear your concerns and are sorry to hear that you've had a negative experience with our editor.

While Froala is not free, we know that our pricing is cheaper if not the cheapest than other alternatives in the market, given the inclusion of all our plugins in all the pricing plans. We also support inline editing which gets out of your way and lets you create content seamlessly which you can try here using this link: https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/customizer-v3/ along with other versions of Froala

We completely acknowledge your concerns and we have always made it a priority to make the details for our licensing to reduce any gray area.

Thank you for your feedback and we appreciate your honesty with our editor. We'll improve and hope you'll give us another chance as we're constantly getting better.

What do you like best about Froala Editor?

The editor works fine to type plain text within our SaaS application. It also allows for different integrations like a video editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Froala Editor?

If you are on a perpetual plan and if you report a bug after 1 year, they will fix it but will not make it bug-free for you if you do not pay them.

I am looking for alternatives because of this problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Froala Editor solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed an editor in our SaaS application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Carl Cruz of Froala Editor

Hey there! We thank you for your honesty, and we agree that Froala is a quick and easy way to integrate multiple modules from projects(such as video editors) and have made it a priority to make it even easier with SaaS applications.

We’re sorry to hear about the bug that you’ve encountered. While no software is bug-free, we make sure that we are on top of major bugs and release new versions of Froala along with bug fixes every 30-45 days.

We hope that you give us another try, as we’re committed to improving Froala and making developers' lives easier.
