Some of its fields related to relational custom fields is not easy to be customized to meet WordPress average Developers.

PRO version allows for integration of new WordPress Blocks for the drag and drop editor; easy ability to duplicate, clone, or use fields across different content types. Essential over the native Fields API. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The 5.1 release branch locked out get_fields against use with any other meta keys that are not registered with ACF, so if you were using some functions as a shortcut, you might end up breaking your site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have used Advanced Custom Fields with a number of themes as well as used it to build custom WordPress themes to achieve the final result the client desired.

The custom fields give you all the creativity you need, but at the same time makes building more complex. Without a developer on staff that understands ACF, we struggle to move as quick when building custom themes with ACF. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
