2.3%

of downloads still active

At least 10K of 429.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,147 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 13 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    [Pro Version] I was skeptical at first, my experience with this type of plugin was all about clutter interfaces, complex process and hard to understand interfaces.SliceWP is amazing in this sense. Simple to use, and everything just works out of the box. We implemented in a day a complete affiliate system to an online school with thousands of users and potential affiliates. It worked quite well out of the box. The translation to Portuguese is not good, though. Besides, i needed to make a customization in the coupon system so it can be generated by the affiliate (as it is with the link) and not manually one by one in the panel. Anyway, amazing job people, really. God bless you all.

    I went looking for an affiliate program. There are lots to choose from. All of them make promises with ‘money back guarantee’ or ‘let us know and we’ll fix or upgrade it’. So I tried a handful. One of them tried for days to not have to refund, even though their policy was no questions asked. Another one scheduled a conference call with me, said to just buy it and then we’ll discuss customization. So the hunt went on. It was then that I found SliceWP. It did almost everything I wanted, or thought I wanted. So I reached out to the developer. Mihai was absolutely amazing! Response times were within 24 hours. After a few questions, emails back and forth, I felt he was more interested in what he could do for me, and less interested in getting my money. His patients with me was impressive, and was happy to answer questions that may have already been answered if I would have just read the fine manual. So I purchased the plugin. Now comes the fun part. After deploying the software more questions started to arise. But, first a bit about the install…. The install was super fast! The install documentation was above and beyond what I would have expected. The documentation explained everything in such detail, it left me with no questions. I had a snag setting up PayPal payouts, but… there was the answer in the install documentation, and it stated if I did not do xxxx then this error would happen. So, I did xxxx and then it all worked perfectly. I was up and running. My Sales reps and Affiliates started asking for more transparency on the transactions. Then this update appeared – even before I could ask for any changes. Product update: Product revenue share and commission items was an amazing update and my staff really likes it. But, it was not enough. So, I took notes, opened a support ticket in the forums, and prayed. See my forum post “Product update: Product revenue share and commission items” for more details. Mihai’s response was lightning fast, appropriate, and spot on! It was my question that was lacking. So I re-asked the question with more information. Again, within 24 hours I had a response. Keep in mind, these were not just the brush off responses I’m use to getting or seeing from developers and a wait and see answer. No, it was thoughtful answers with real solutions, including the code needed to solve the request. So, would I buy this software? 100% yes. Do I trust the developer team? 100% Yes. Do I plan on upgrading my plan from annual to lifetime? 100% Yes. If you are looking for an affiliate program that just works – buy this plugin. If it does not currently do all that you want, or you don’t fully understand what it can/cannot do, just ask the team. I know they’ll have a respectful and thoughtful answer for you!

    Este plugin superou completamente minhas expectativas. A instalação foi simples e a interface é extremamente intuitiva, mesmo para quem não tem conhecimentos avançados em WordPress. Ele cumpre exatamente o que promete, sem bugs ou lentidão no carregamento. O suporte também merece destaque: fui atendido rapidamente quando tive uma dúvida e recebi uma solução eficaz em menos de 24 horas. Além disso, o plugin é leve e não compromete a performance do site. Recomendo fortemente para quem busca uma solução prática, estável e com ótimo custo-benefício. Nota 5 com louvor!
