    The support is unbelievable! They worked with me over two weeks to finish an API connection of a new eshop that I built. My knowledge of programming is very limited, so I asked for assistance from the WPGet API support. From the beginning, Mr. Josef took over all of the configuration and programming to finish the plugin connection. All of the orders get on the ERP w/o any problems, and when I update any of them, they get updated to the ERP also. The plugin works like a charm! I am pleased with the installation since it saved me lots of money. Mr. Josef and the whole support team worked even on the weekends to finish the project. They were always very kind and polite in our communications! I highly recommend the plugin but mostly the support of it. They are SUPER!

    Was fighting for days trying to figure out where my problem was. Reached out to support and after a few emails, they found my solution and fixed it for me! A simple oversight on my end, but thankful for their help.
