Yes. Both GravityKit’s GravityView and Gravity Wiz’s Entry Blocks are add-ons for Gravity Forms, not standalone form tools. You must have Gravity Forms installed (and have created some forms to collect entries) in order to use these plugins. They simply pull and display the entries that Gravity Forms collects. If Gravity Forms is not present, neither will function.

GravityView has the edge for very large datasets, with a proven track record on high-traffic sites. Features like server side processing, caching, and pagination all help with performance. Entry Blocks can handle a decent number of entries and does support pagination and search filtering to mitigate performance issues. However, because Entry Blocks renders through Gutenberg, extremely large lists (hundreds of entries at once) might be slower to load or manage in the editor. If your application involves tens of thousands of entries to display at once, you might prefer GravityView for its performance optimization and export options.

 Yes. GravityView (including the Pro version) offers many features Entry Blocks lacks out-of-the-box: maps display, DIY views, the ability to combine multiple forms’ data into one view, featured entry highlighting, magic edit links, Elementor visual styling, entry approval, and direct entry export to CSV, among others. Entry Blocks focuses on core viewing/editing and relies on the block ecosystem for any extras. On the flip side, Entry Blocks being Gutenberg-based means you can integrate things like reusable block patterns or even embed other dynamic blocks. In essence, GravityView has a broader built-in feature set, while Entry Blocks leverages external blocks for creative solutions. There isn’t much Entry Blocks can do that GravityView absolutely cannot. Both let you view, search, sort, and edit entries, but how they do it differs.

 If you’re already invested in Gravity Perks, you likely have access to Entry Blocks at no extra cost, so it makes sense to try it first for your use case. Many Gravity Perks users find Entry Blocks meets their needs for front-end entry display. However, if after trying it you find yourself needing features it doesn’t offer, you might consider adding GravityView. It largely depends on the feature requirements. The good news is both have 30-day refund periods, so you can evaluate them side by side. In some cases, power users run both: for example, using GravityView for one complex part of a site and Entry Blocks for another simpler section, since they won’t conflict with each other.

Entry Blocks has been in beta (version 1.0-beta as of early 2026), which means the developers are still adding features and refining it, but it’s quite stable. Gravity Wiz wouldn’t include it in Gravity Perks if it wasn’t safe to use. Many users are already building real-world applications with it (Gravity Wiz showcases examples on their site). The “beta” label mostly indicates they are gathering feedback and rapidly improving the perk. You should feel comfortable using it on production, but as with any plugin, keep it updated. GravityView is a mature, fully stable product; it’s been production-proven for years. If absolute stability and long-term tested reliability are your top concern, GravityView has that legacy. Entry Blocks is new but actively maintained. So far, user feedback has been positive, and any bugs tend to get fixed quickly via Gravity Perks updates (which come out frequently).

There isn’t an automated migration tool, because the two work differently. If you start with Entry Blocks and later move to GravityView, you would need to recreate the displays as Views in GravityView’s editor. Similarly, going from GravityView to Entry Blocks means rebuilding the layout using blocks on a page. The underlying data (Gravity Forms entries) remains the same, so it’s just a matter of configuring display. This can be done quickly with a simple list, but complex setups might take longer to replicate. One thing to consider: GravityView stores its configuration in the database (as a View post type), while Entry Blocks configuration lives in the page content (as blocks). They won’t interfere with each other, so you could run both plugins in parallel while you transition, showing the new pages to replace the old, then turn off the one you don’t need. If you anticipate possibly switching, you might start with a small test with both to see which you prefer before building everything.
