Disk Usage Sunburst

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

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

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 52% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

Reviewers keep saying it does one job well, showing them exactly which folders and files are eating disk space without touching FTP or SSH, with only one old complaint about errors.

   Installation was quick, and within a minute I could clearly see which folders were taking up the most space. The sunburst chart is intuitive and easy to understand, and it helped me solve a disk space issue without digging through FTP or SSH. Exactly what I needed.

   I moved my websites over to Direct Admin (DA) panels. DA doesn’t include the option to see file diskspace breakdown like cPanel offers. No problem, because this plugin is far better! And I found some other little gremlins in the mix. I can confirm it works with WP 6.5.2 (most recent at the time of this review). Will be recommending this to my clients.

   This plugin helped me find some file oaks that made my website slow and the server memory extremely full (database cache log files). Thank you!

   I hardly write reviews anymore. Why? Because everything is pure poop and clickbait for premium “features” but every once in a while I come to download one of my must haves for a client site and I have to write something because of how dependable the plugin is and how it is literally a necessity for a site and that is why DUS is getting a 5 star. No one, has tried to do what they have done and it is such a addon to a devs toolbox. Everyone else is competing for social feed plugin users or the coolest new Elementor widgets and yet if you know anything about WP you’re here like me downloading DUS for a build. 5 stars all day, everyday!

   Our hosts have a max capacity on our account and old files can make some sites get way too big – this plugin is invaluable for tracing the problems.
