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
Est. acquisition value
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.

I was having to wait 10+ seconds to look up an order. We have a large store with 250,000+ orders Now it takes 1-2 seconds. Amazing sauce!

Great plugin. It’s a huge improvement for stores with lots of orders. Worked perfectly for me on the legacy order tables. Thanks to the developer!

Absolutely fantastic numbers on the order searches in large environments with this plugin. Ollie is amazing at finding workarounds to make this plugin work. This is what WooCommerce order search should have been from the beginning. Thanks alot Ollie!

This plugin is great, just does what it says. Search time on my orders has been reduced to about 50% off before. Thank you for the good work done!

this is, by far, the “must have” plugin for big shops, pair this with HPOS and you search in 300k+ orders in less than 1 second! (with 100 order listing!).very great work, this should be merged in core!

We have been using this plugin since its initial release, their updates are brilliant never a hitch and being a fast based ecommerce company we need all the speed we can get. With over 120,000 orders in active view this plugin makes looking up orders super quick for our support team. This topic was modified 1 year, 9 months ago by E-Liquids UK.

We’ve been using Index WP MySQL For Speed for some time, and the creator also recommended the Fast Woo Order Lookup plugin. This plugin seems to function correctly, and the method used to accelerate searches is ingenious. The order search feature was a frequent offender in our MySQL slow query log, but it seems to be much less of an issue now. According to both customer service testimonials and personal experience, searches are significantly faster. Previously, a search could take up to ten seconds now, it often takes about three seconds. There are times when it may take slightly longer, but generally, it’s much quicker. One downside of this plugin—which I personally don’t consider a negative—is that the trigram table uses about 6.4GB of space. It’s also worth mentioning that we have over 630,000 orders on the site in question. We therefore recommend this plugin if you’re looking to reduce search times for anyone needing to look up orders on your site. It will enhance their productivity and also reduce processing time to deliver the desired results. We haven’t encountered any problems with this plugin, but I should mention that it should be implemented by someone with some technical knowledge to measure the impact it will have. This can depend on whether your site has plugins that modify certain aspects. Also, if your site is inherently slow, this plugin won’t perform miracles to solve underlying issues.

I have been using Oliver’s plugins for years and they are amazing. This one is no exception. It improved the time to search for orders on a site with over 130,000 orders from 120 seconds to just 3 seconds! Just one question: does this plugin keep generating the indexes over and over again? Because I get this message constantly on the site: “Fast Woo Order Lookup indexing still in progress. 100% complete. See the Scheduled Actions status page for details.” And when this happens, the site backend and order lookup slows down again.
