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.

    A little technical but that’s when I was creating my Cloudflare R2 storage. The app is straightforward. However, it seems my webp images aren’t sent to the bucket. Thanks

    This plugin is broken on WordPress.com hosting. I want to make this clear, that this is not a fault of the developer, though. Jetpack (even with image optimization off) automatically messes with some of the thumbnails, which leads to the plugin’s offloading feature failing repeatedly. (From what I can tell, it adds the virtual:true flag to the image). Regenerating thumbnails doesn’t work. I gave this a 3-star and not a 1-star because I migrated to a self-hosted setup, and it’s working fine.

    Thank you for this amazing plugin! It works like a charm, out of the box. I’ve tried it with all sorts of different s3 storage providers, even some lesser known. It worked with all, custom URLs and all… Just great, congrats!

    I don’t have experience with other offloading plugins, but Advanced Media Offloader has been an absolute joy to use — simple, intuitive, and straightforward.

    I tried several plugins—this one is the cleanest and easiest to understand. Top-notch support, thanks to the developer! Keep up the good work!

    I had a challenging task — exporting about 4 TB of media files to R2. I personally reached out to the plugin developer, Masoud Golchin, and within just two days he configured everything so that my site worked flawlessly. The support was exceptional, and the plugin is incredibly reliable and efficient.There is simply no more stable alternative out there.A solid 5 stars!
