Biggest opportunity: Add “departments”, “chart” and “charts” to your wp.org tags. You rank #8, #9 and #19 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 3 listed these are the slots worth spending.

El plugin permite visualizar muy bien una organización, sin embargo creo que vale más la pena obtener la versión PRO pues las funcionalidades se multiplican.

This plugin does not work on the latest wordpress version (5.6). No menu is visible on the left side for simple org chart. Only the menu in “settings” is visible, but this one does not contain any functionality. (this review is for the free version of Simple Org Chart)

Support was super helpful with getting around our tricky site set up and ensuring the plugin worked smoothly for us moving forward. Despite the (numerous) obstacles on our end, Gangesh was super patient and helpful. Five stars, would definitely recommend 🙂
