Positive Reviews: 

“Goood”

Good plugin, deny alot of brutal attact

“Best free security plugin”

It provides great service of providing security.

 

Negative Reviews:

“Was gold, now Garbage!”

The old UI was grouped in easy to understand pages. Now we are FORCED into a cartoon themed wizard? And we are forced to provide at least one user for notifications?

And you are now hiding settings?

This went from Solid Gold to Cartoon Garbage.

“What happened?”

Have been using this plugin for years because it was working fine, simple to setup but now it is a complex nightmare.

Notification mails made completely useless because “Default Recipients[user_list] must contain at least 1 item” while there is!

Guess somebody else then before is working on this plugin but please can we get the old interface back.

 

This plug-in had an option to secure specifically a portfolio, which I liked. It got mixed reviews however, I like what it has to offer and it seems to be a good security plug-in.

Positive Reviews: 

“Does what it says”

Been using this plugin for 5 years, it works great right out the box

 

“Excellent!”

PrintFriendly worked immediately and is very simple to use.

 

Negative Reviews:

“Was good until they started injecting ads into PDFs! AVOID THIS!”

Worked great, then on some update they started adding links injected into pdf/print files.

They offer a pro version of the plugin which removes ads, but still showing the ads after starting the pro trial.

Terrible practices, do not use this plugin.

 

“Worst service on the Internet”

This company acts deceptively. Annualises your subscription without notice and then refuses to cancel it. As a fellow developer, I don’t understand why a company acts this way. My advice is not to deal with these clowns. I would give it minus stars if possible…

 

It seems to be useful and have good support. I did not have any problems so far.
