Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

Release cadence

Occasionally updated
from wp.org release tags

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    I’ve migrated over a dozen sites to Pantheon with this plugin and all of the migrations were successful. Even migrations with 10gbs of files! Just set it and forget it! Always works as described. Thanks a lot for making my life easier.

    Now, that’s how you do Engineering as Marketing. This thing is a sweet introduction to Pantheon. I hope the UX is this good all around. Click. Click. Done. And, dag, they have some thick pipes to move your files. Super fast!
