• I used this plugin for a while now, it was simple, easy to use and it worked perfectly. The new version could be a big improvement but at the end it’s failed:

    • more complex installation: need to register to WPMU
    • need to activate the dashboard (and often install a second plugin because a lot’s of security plugins block the activation)
    • new menu in administration (instead of have it in tools menu)
    • new dashboard (more modern but the old was pretty clear)
    • performance improvement (excepted the fact that doesn’t use your own resources, i didn’t find it faster)
    • privacy issues: need to enter your WP admin credentials in WPMU website + no possibility to delete WPMU free account in settings (need to contact them) + automatically registered in 2 WPMU newsletters

    I’ve returned on the old version. However if on long term (or short term) it’s removed to only let the new one, i’ll probably search another plugin. For the moment there isn’t any other one with the quality of this one (in its old version) but for sure, some will come or be improved if this one continue in that way because maybe there will be a place to take for this very useful feature.
