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.

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

The latest plugin update V2.9.3 is breaking Contact form 7. Opens only the last created contact form 7 form in edit mode, whenever you are trying to view all the forms. Once I disable HandL plugin, contact form 7 starts behaving correctly and am able to view all my forms. Please fix the issue immediately.

UTMs should never be used internally. Analytics tools start a new session every time a UTM is passed.This is why they should be used only for external links incoming to your site.The default option on this plug-in (and it shouldn’t even be an option) is to append UTMs to all CTAs.Very bad practice. Giving 1 star to warn others.

It has nothing much to set in its settings section, and the only thing you see is an add that urges you to upgrade. Don’t waste your time with this useless plugin.

Added and activated plugin. No settings to adjust. Documentation is horrible and watching the official YouTube video from them shows something not available to use in Elementor Pro (feature is missing in the free version of Handl?). Essentially just installs an ad (within it’s own plugin space) to get a paid version.

Great tool. Works as advertised and is relatively customizable and straightforward. The support has also been 10/10 exceptional. They are always responsive with accurate information and willingness to go above and beyond. Highly recommend this plugin.

Matching visitor traffic & tracking data to specific lead records is something we have done through a custom PHP website for years, however, after outgrowing our current solution, we migrated to WP, and then came the lengthy part of plugin selection.This plugin, in combination with WP Forms has solved an integral component of lead source tracking, and now allows us to save important marketing information to every form submission, which also creates a lead record in Salesforce using WP Forms.UTM Grabber though, provides the most important part of this, and does it so well and seamlessly I can’t show enough gratitude to their team. The support we’ve received alone is well worth the plugin price, but the total value it provides is incalculable.A+++
