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.

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 really appreciate author’s contribution. I installed this plugin and it has been working great! Now I have upgraded my WordPress to version 6.0. This plugin is still working as usual. Can’t imagine it is free. This topic was modified 4 years, 1 month ago by yf1019.

    Very nice plugin. Highly recommended. Create the app on O365. Take record of the client ID, secret, Tenant ID. Put them all into the plugin. Authorize. Then everything works fine. The plugin does not offer sending test email feature. But you can go into the WordPress user page and manually send email to a user. I successfully sent an email to a test user on the first attempt after configuration.

    Started looking in to how to do this myself and then I found this plugin. No issues at all and free!

    I can’t believe this is free! I got it to work with godaddy’s managed wordpress. GoDaddy only issues O365 email accounts now. The instructions are very clear for such a complicated Microsoft process. Thanks to the author. I am so appreciative and relieved that it works.

    Well that was easy to setup, great instructions for anyone new to app registrations in azure. And even better you just taught me how to use shared mailboxes to avoid consuming o365 licenses for system accounts. IMHO don’t bother with the paid ones.
