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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    Just to clarify for the poor souls – Pop-Up forms DO NOT come with free plan. To activate the POP-UP forms you need to upgrade to a professional plan at…. drum roll…. $499 per mont LOL I suggest plugin developer to clearly state that in the description, please This topic was modified 3 months ago by iliafrescocom.

    brevo itself is leading, but the WordPress plugin has gotten worse with every update. This starts with the global enqueue of jQuery in the front end and continues with the global enqueue of wonderpush, even though it has not been activated. However, thanks to Brevo’s excellent developer documentation, you can code a solution according to your own requirements without this plugin. In my opinion, the plugin in its current version 3.3.2 should be completely refactored or removed immediately. this version no longer meets Brevo’s standards.

    What a useless plugin. The 5-star reviews must be fake! Cannot connect forms from Brevo, others complain about this too… This topic was modified 6 months ago by r24k.

    I don’t understand the negative reviews. Brevo offers a unique freemium features and integrates easily and freely with all the most popular WordPress forms. Keep up the good work!

    It is important to me that my website functions quickly. Since installing this plugin my page speed insights have slowed dramatically. A few things that have been flagged on the brevo plugin when I run pagespeed insights are: unused css (cloudfront) which has been tied to brevo plugin, efficient cache lifetime, chaining critical requests (this was a big one for brevo plugin). I am goiong to try and install the script manually instead of the plugin to see if that helps. This could be a complete dealbreaker for me tho as a software that I would use for my company.

    The email process seems to work fine. However, at some point Brevo (after they took over SendinBlue) installed WonderPush which has been a big headache. I’ve deactivated it on the Brevo website dashboard and in the plugin, but I still get lots of Wonderpush php errors almost daily. After going back and forth with support many times, I gave up. Although they were very courteous, their best suggestion was to delete the Brevo plugin folder. I could not wrap my brain around that, since we depend on consistent, reliable emails from the site. Apparently, the plugin is still calling Wonderpush, using resources, and generating errors. Where’s the quality control and support?
