No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

Reviewers like what it does alongside its companion drop-down menu plugin, though one hit a version conflict where the fixed menu obscures the top of the page, and another wants more customization.

    à l’ignoble menu fourre-tout « made in WordPress ». Qui est, excusez du peu, un modèle de contre-ergonomie ! Allié à “Ozh’ Admin Drop Menu” et “AG-Custom Admin”, on atteint un bon niveau d’ergonomie, dommage quand-même qu’on ne puisse pas personnaliser Admin Drop Menu davantage !

    The companion plugin “Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu” works beautifully and I love it. But I really would like to use the companion plugin “Admin Menus Fixed” to keep the menu from scrolling off the top. Unfortunately this current version doesn’t work with my version of WordPress 4.2.2. Two problems: 1) When Admin Menus Fixed is applied, the very top portion of the page slips under the menu and is obscured (particularly bad if the top menu is two lines or more. 2) When trying to click on a sub-menu item on the first line, the menu item on the second line actually interferes. This is not an issue when “Admin Menus Fixed” is not active, but becomes an issue when it is. So my workaround is to do without “Admin Menus Fixed” but now the top menu scrolls off the page unfortunately. ALMOST a perfect solution. I hope Ozh’ can fix this! Thanks!

    If you always want your admin menus one click away this is the plugin for you. No more scrolling around to find the links and menus you need. Works great with “Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu” plugin. The plugin is actively maintained. If you do run into a plug-in, browser or theme conflict the developer is quick to respond and find and fix the problem.
