Premium pricing structure is outrageous
-
This plugin (free version was perfect for what I needed) I would have been willing to purchase a premium version that was reasonably priced however…I updated the plugin only to find this message on my pages when I go to edit them saying I need to PAY to be able edit individual messages on the page now. This is something that is a BASIC feature. The default message honestly isn’t very professional either. I wouldn’t refer to my customers as “folks”. I know you can edit that out but when I updated the plugin I didnt realize my original messages would be removed and it caused major confusion for my customers who were accessing my site because the help messages I provided on the pages were WIPED OUT with the update. You basically stripped away the functionality you gave us to start with.
I dont mind paying for the plugin I know as a developer you need to make money for your work but going on a subscription type of fee that is so HIGH is a bit ridiculous. Considering hosting for websites isn’t even $8 a month for me I cant justify that monthly for ONE single plugin for ONE site. Not only that but the single site license is $8.33 and billed ANNUALLY meaning I have to fork over $100 for a simple plugin. I dont even pay $100 a month for my webhosting. The pricing structure is simply outrageous for the type of features this plugin offers and $30 a MONTH if you need it for more than one site??? Again people are not even paying that for webhosting a month and there really isnt much to this plugin that justifies it. I could justify $60-80 one time fee or a cheaper yearly fee to keep it updated but I think your pricing structure is going to turn many people off from purchasing this. There are plugins that do this and MORE on codecanyon for a faction of the price and its a ONE TIME fee of $40 and you’re not much cheaper than woocommerces official membership plugin which restricts access to pages and offers content dripping and more for $150 single site.
Is just disappointing to see basic features stripped away and then a really high pricing structure and Im sure I wont be the only one out off by it.
