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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    I wanted a replacement for my old email plugin. This one does everything I need to help me send out paid for content. A recent issue was sorted out. I did think that I had been abandoned as didn’t get an update for 9 hours. Had I known the support guy was on night shifts and would continue with the issue when back on shift, it would have saved me a lot of stress. The problem was sorted that evening, in plenty of time to send out emails the next morning. Just some constructive criticism to give users that sort of info. No one likes to think they are being ignored. Overall, I highly recommend this plugin

    I have been working WordPress for more than 2 decades. This is the best email plugin I have ever used. Kudos to the developers.

    I recently upgraded to the pro version of this plugin, specifically to gain the ability to stylize the emails I send to my users. Unfortunately, this experience has been nothing short of disappointing. The plugin does allow for custom CSS to be added to the email templates, but that’s where the usefulness ends. The setting area merely states, “Add your custom CSS style to the email template. These styles will be applied on top of a default style,” but there’s no documentation or information provided on what the default style even looks like. This makes it nearly impossible to know how my customizations will interact with the existing design. Moreover, the plugin offers various themes, but it’s impossible to preview or understand how these themes actually look. The themes seem to be purely color-based, without any accessible visual guides or examples to help users make an informed choice. The whole process is extremely user-unfriendly and confusing. In the end, I feel like I wasted my money on a pro version that doesn’t deliver on the promise of better email customization. The lack of clear documentation and the inability to preview themes makes this plugin a frustrating experience.

    Excellent plugin! I’m using the Pro version and would award five stars if the plugin could also send emails to User Groups! Otherwise a very easy plugin to use for non-techie users!

    The free version basically is useless with very basic functionality founds in any plugin. Additionally the author does not mention that it only sends one email regardless of how many users you select , which is kind of deceiving people. Uninstalled
