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.

    There are a bunch of expensive and bloated options that try to do what this plugin does for free and don’t quite get there. Had reports being produced within half an hour of finding it, very happy.

    I find this plug-in invaluable for producing reports that combine information from multiple plug-ins, such as membership and event ticket sales. Very stable and very flexible. Thanks for the September 2021 update. The new shortcode for adding a “Export to CSV” button is a great addition!

    I’ve found this plugin useful to produce custom reports for website owners who don’t have the skills to run SQL queries in phpMyAdmin. I’d gladly pay for a premium version if it had at least an export to CSV button. Some extra styling options would be good too.

    Works. Produced a report with some pretty complicated SQL. Report available both in admin panel, and on a web page. Sent an annoying issue to the developer, and he updated the plugin within a day. Looking at support log, developer appears to be responsive to problems.
