• This plugin was compromised with a hack that brought down 14 of our client sites and cost us a week just to tidy up the mess and two lost contracts. I will never trust this developer again and I strongly suggest that you do not either.

    The breach was months ago and solved. What is the purpose of this review? Just a false diversion?? Please clean up these false reviews! I’m looking for real reviews!!

    The only false thing around here is your response. Are you on the development team? Doing a bit of astroturfing trying to rubbish people who paid good money for this crappy plugin? The breach that occurred due to the third-rate programming capabilities of this team affected thousands of people all over the globe. Who cares if it was a couple of months ago! We’re supposed to suddenly trust them because they’ve got some special certificate that says they’re on the level now? What a joke.You are right though – they do need to clean up false reviews – like yours.

    @repomonkey Thanks so much for posting this. The company looked legit but I found them pretty glitchy and did not play well with other Elementor Plugins. I’m glad I decided to scour reviews before pulling the trigger. Sorry to hear about your client losses, but appreciate you helping others out.

    What plugin did you move to instead? Seems like they all kinda do the same thing so its hard to tell.

    I found Essential Addons for Elementor to be the best of the crop, however I’ve now moved away from Elementor completely and use Oxygen instead.
