Biggest opportunity: Swap “product customizer” for “wallpaper”. “product customizer” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wallpaper” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →0.1%
of downloads still active
At least 10 of 9.9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,770 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 5 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Recent review vibe
read from the latest 10 reviews to 2025-12-31Reviewers split hard: several call the design tool excellent with quick, personal support, while others say the sales and support behavior is rude, the plugin drags site performance, and the four-figure setup fee plus monthly cost puts it out of reach.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |

The customer service at DesignNBuy is just atrocious. Sales people are extremely aggressive and rude. Few of the 5 star ratings on here are Indian people with Indian IP addresses that are probably family or friends of the stakeholders of the business. The plugin itself is decent, far from the best… but it doesn’t matter if the customer service sucks. Usually the service is great BEFORE the sale and then diminish once they get your money, but these guys suck from the get go. If you need a simple plug and play solution, then Designo may work perfectly for you. But if you need any type of customization, you’ll rip your hair out trying to get these idiots to comprehend anything.

Design-o is an awful piece of software – absolutely convoluted and the plugin brings down wordpress performance on an otherwise very performant amazon S3 instance. The developers do not listen to input and only managed to half-assedly rectify issues after a lot a hand-wringing and endless meetings. I came back to my installation after three months and finally gave up on it. Save yourself the hassle.Further edit: It seems to me that the company does not fully stand behind their product, and their response to the above reads as follows:“it has come to our attention that your previous review was edited on 29th May, and the updated content includes remarks that could be interpreted as unfavorable.” This topic was modified 1 year, 7 months ago by mhartel.

Design’N’Buy team and software are the most powerful solution available in the web to print market. I tried couple of different solutions in past but none of them met my requirement. We are so happy and grateful to them.
