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 really love this plugin. It collects all the critical information about my sites and tech stack and presents it in an easy and informative way. When you need it, it’s the best tool at your service.

    If you like getting under the hood of WP, this plugin is an essential install. The layout and tabs respond quickly, bringing plentiful useful sys info and stats all to one dashboard, outperforming similar plugins. It’s clearly been expertly coded, with attention to detail. And it’s very discrete – install and forget, without nags or distracting colors, but it’s there when you need it to troubleshoot, pulling in the latest WP/server stats. The plugin is still being actively maintained, and support is responsive if required. You won’t know how you lived without it! 5⭐

    There are two absolutely outstanding features on this plugin: (a) the extensive ajax loading that keeps the main page snappy and only slows down when you actually want to see some data, and (b) the list of tools and references in each section to make it easy to follow up on that thing you need to go research further. Really amazing.
