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

Estimated value

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

N/A

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 spent hours trying to find a plugin to make a pop-up (popup?) for my Mad Mimi account. At last! This worked! Okay, it took more like 10 minutes, but it works perfectly!

    Unfortunately, the free version will become unusable on 25th May 2018, because its not GDPR compliant: The support told me, that the nescessary Opt-In checkbox (data processing agreement opt-in) is only available in the paid version. Small blogs and projects like my website have to look for an alternative. As long as the devs do not rethink to comply with the GDPR in the free version, this plugin is no longer recommended for european residents and all small blogs with european targeted audiences. Especially low or non-profit websites that can not spend $100 per year to have a legally required checkbox. This topic was modified 8 years, 2 months ago by LeftHandedCat.

    I do not understand why this popup plugin is not as popular as all, and i say ALL the others i found on internet! This is the first time i find a plugin that actually allow me to design absolutly aspect of my popup from the background, to the locations and size of the input fields. No other plugin outhere allow me to do that witout any coding experience. PopupAllypro does that! It is fully responsive! Compatible with popular form software like mailchimp I highly recommand that plugin WAY before all the other popular plugin i tried (have been trying a.. lot!)

    Great plugin. It does the job. But I’ve just discovered that it changes the color of checkout button in woocommerce to black… 🙁
