Est. annual revenue
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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

I’ve been looking for a clean, modern WordPress slider plugin that doesn’t rely on heavy libraries, and Xtreme Slider delivered exactly what I needed. What makes this plugin stand out is its three unique slider layouts — especially the 3D slider, which looks amazing out of the box. The Default and Cool layouts are also very well designed, giving flexibility depending on the type of website you’re building. Setup is extremely simple. You create a slider, copy the shortcode, and drop it anywhere — works perfectly with Gutenberg, Elementor, or even the Classic Editor. No complicated configuration or unnecessary settings. Here’s what I liked most: Multiple slider types (Default, Cool, and 3D layouts) Smooth infinite loop and autoplay options Touch and swipe support on mobile devices Clean UI with drag-and-drop slide ordering Built with pure JavaScript (no jQuery or external dependencies) Shortcode support to embed sliders anywhere Responsive across all screen sizes I also appreciate that it’s a standalone plugin, so it doesn’t require WooCommerce or any page builder to work. If you’re searching for a WordPress slider plugin, image slider, or 3D slider plugin that is modern, lightweight, and easy to use — this is definitely worth trying. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a simple but powerful slider solution without bloat.
