    I am considering the pro version of Equalize Digital Accessibility Checker but I’d like to better understand the workflow. I recently used Monsido (now rebranded as Acquia Optimize) to do accessibility remediation on a website and while that tool is complex with some issues it also has some powerful features I’d like to see in Equalize Digital Accessibility Checker.

    1. how does the full site checking work?
    2. is there any way to quickly clear/ignore warnings or errors across an entire site without having to do it one at a time on every page?
    3. what sort of reporting is provided for full site?
    4. does the tool provide a site score?
    5. are you familiar with Monsido? if so, how does Pro Equalize Digital Accessibility Checker compare?

    I’m sure I’ll have more questions but that is what I have off the top of my head. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    Hi @johnstaples,

    WordPress dot org has rules about us using this support forum to answer questions related to our paid version of the plugin. I’ll briefly answer your questions here, but to avoid us getting in trouble with the plugins team, will you please submit any follow up questions via the contact sales form on our website? Thanks for understanding and sorry for the inconvenience.

    Brief answers:

    1. You can run a full site scan that will crawl all posts on the site and updates reports without you having to save them (as you have to do in the free plugin). You can see this in action in our plugin demo if you want (go to Accessibility Checker > Full Site Scan in the admin).
    2. If you have fixed something in a global area of the site (like the header) in the pro version, you can run a full site scan to have that cleared everywhere. If something is a manual review item (say an icon with aria-hidden in the footer) you can create a global ignore to ignore it site wide in paid versions of the plugin.
    3. The best way for you to see the kind of reporting that exists in pro is either to try the demo linked above or to watch this webinar that explains all the features or our WordCamp US Showcase Day presentation.

    We are very familiar with Monsido – we actually used to pay for Monsido and that’s what motivated us to build Accessibility Checker. We have put a lot of effort into creating rules for accessibility checking that better report in a WordPress environment. The other big difference is scans are run on your server so there’s not per page or per scan cost, and you get the reports right in the admin dashboard. We talked more about that during Showcase Day at WordCamp US.

    Thanks for considering our plugin as part of your toolset!

    Hey Amber Hinds @alh0319 !

    Thank you so much for your informative and helpful response! I will check out the resources you provided and then purchase the Pro version to fully try it out on one of my sites.

    In addition to your Accessibility Checker being a very impressive tool I can also say that your support, even for the free version, is quite impressive!

    I will submit any followup questions to your sales department as you suggested.

    Rgds,
    John
