Pros & Cons
With Zerif theme’s one-page layout, your site visitors can easily find their way around your website. The Homepage itself is segmented to highlight all the necessary information that a user is looking for. The homepage section of the Pro version includes:

You can reorder the sections, customize the content of each section, and change the colors. Except for the customizable contents, Zerif Lite doesn’t have access to these other options as well as the Google Maps and Pricing sections.

However, some sections like the client and team profile sections can only be customized through widgets, which is available on the WordPress dashboard.
Nevertheless, the editing interface is intuitive and easy to use with a live preview of your website. It is well-documented.
If you prefer Zerif Pro, you can purchase the theme at a starting price of $89, which also allows you to have access to 30+ themes for 12 months.
