Sender by BestWebSoft

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

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

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 78% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

   This plugin does exactly what it says and is a huge benefit in maintaining contact with our members. It is super easy to set up and simple to use and gives you great control over sending emails to lots of people at once. We had our plugin customised even further which allowed us to select certain roles to have the access to the plugin via the front end thereby eliminating the need to give backend access to too many people. The support staff at BestWebSoft were awesome with this and setup the customisation quickly and charged a small but reasonable amount for the additional work they undertook. If we ever had a problem they would fix it without delay. I thoroughly recommend this plugin cannot praise the support staff any higher they are awesome.

   Features I had, like saving my settings, were moved to the “Pro” paid version when I updated the plugin! FYI, you create higher-value versions by ADDING features. This topic was modified 8 years, 7 months ago by denisseattle.

   Sadly, I am periodically unable to send mailouts. There are few instructions on how to troubleshoot this problem. It says in settings, if you change the email listed, mailouts may go into the spam folder and failures may occur, but there is nothing I can find on where this spam folder is, whose it is, and how I can check and fix this. Customer service requests are ernest, but turnaround is slow, even for the paid version. If enough troubleshooting were available, I probably wouldn’t need to wait for the email to get back to me. “In progress….in progress…in progress…”
