Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

Recent review vibe
read from the latest 12 reviews to 2026-04-14Reviewers like how simple and well styled the accordion block is, but a recurring set of complaints says updates break existing blocks with the invalid content error, sometimes wiping the content inside, and one April 2026 reviewer says accordions stopped opening after an update and editing turned slow.

Accordions don’t open after the plugin update on April 13. Additionally editing/adding accordions is painfully slow. Switching away from this plugin altogether. This topic was modified 3 months ago by stemlund.

Plug-In works great. Had one issue when we upgraded to Pro but the team was able to fix the issue quickly.

After at least one update, we had problems with the blocks not working and messing up pages if block recovery was hit. Recently, we simply can’t get into pages at all on the backend to make changes as they freeze up. Still works on the font end though. If we disable the Accordion plug-in it works. Guess we’ll have to get rid of this plug-in and recreate all pages with their Accordion. It’s a BIG headache..

I used the Advanced Accordion block in a client’s FAQ section where the content was pretty long and needed to stay visually tidy. It was incredibly easy to set up, and the styling options meant I didn’t have to write any extra CSS. The client was thrilled with how clean and professional it looked.

Sometimes you just need a simple block that does one thing really well. Advanced Accordion Gutenberg Block does just that. You don’t want the plugin to come with a host of other things including kitchen sink you don’t need. Thank you.

The plugin does exactly what it says it does. It has a lot of advanced functions, even in the free version. Truly recommend! Also, their support is AWESOME. The team goes far and beyond to help with any issues encountered.

When ever the plugin is updated the accordions used in pages show a message saying “Block contains unexpected or invalid content.” and a button inciting us to recover the block. When the button is clicked, the group accordion block disappears with all the content and one has to start all over from scratch…. not an optimal solution.

Giving this a 2 because when it works it is nice. However, it constantly breaks and deletes the content that is inside it. We used it for Q&A on the site, but every few days it gives the “try to recover block” error in admin and all content has been deleted. Will have to delete and develop our own block for this.
