Tables are very useful tools in websites. For an interactive data sheet we can use tables to present information to users in a clear and organized way. We can use tables for particular reasons like organizing data, creating pricing tables, comparison charts, creating resource libraries and many more.
Elementor and its pro version doesn’t natively support creating tables. So, we need to use some plugins or elementor addons to create tables in elementor. Here is a list of some plugins with tables and their features.
