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

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. acquisition value

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 am using this system at a campground – yes, at campground to display information to my campers and visitors. I love it because the content can be dynamically updated from my wordpress website by anybody. I had tried other systems but updates needed to be done by me – with it being done on my website, then my wife or one of our employees can easily do real-time updates. Highly recommend it!

    We are using this plugin in our waiting room in our dental clinic it is a great way to display useful information especially using the split screen functionality where you can split your screen in two different view. It was a life changing functionality and made things much more easier for us. Thank you team for this great plugin.

    WPscreens created our digital leaflet and it works super easy and functional. In our sales offices we use the screens, low investment and always up to date. Easy for our salespeople to use and custumers are way better informed. Thnx. Team Potgieter

    A perfect solution to show rich presentations on a large screen on company premises or shop window. I see the main strength in how easy you can edit and update the content – just like you would do that on your website.
