## Reviews

### "Amazing software, probably one of the best\!" — 5.0/5

> **Samir** | *8 September 2024* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: No word will express how good this app is\! Probably one of the most reliable ones out there. I use it for my WordPress blog and it is extremely fast, responsive and offers amazing features on the go, right from your phone.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing so far, it has been absolutely amazing and a pleasure to use.
> 
> Outstanding\! I enjoy every feature this software has to offer, no complains at all.

### "Valuable features, once free, now expensive" — 4.0/5

> **Joseph** | *18 July 2024* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: They set the standard for several of the features offered. They used to be free but over the years they have started charging for nearly everything.
> 
> **Cons**: You have to constantly keep it connected to their site. Nearly every little feature comes with individual monthly costs. I'd be more likely to buy something and own it rather than pay rent.
> 
> It gave me good ideas of things to code myself instead of being on another subscription. For someone not wiling or able to develop their own similar features it is a great product.

### "It's good but it's slow" — 3.0/5

> **Rodrigo** | *14 April 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The good thing about JetPack is that it is from the same root as wordpress, and it has many additional functions that the wordpress core does not have. The good thing about it is that it's a Swiss Army knife to manage a site collection.
> 
> **Cons**: It has improved a lot since the first time I used it, at least many functions were added, perhaps copying ideas from other plugins. But still I find it very slow, it seems something extremely heavy (painfully), it seems to connect to external servers with a lot of latency. Everything is time consuming to be done there. Dashboards are also confusing. The idea is good, but I can't consider it a good implementation. It might be better if you use your site on a cloud provider with a good budget, if there are resources left it might be worth it, but for shared hosting or with VPS with modest resources it won't do.
> 
> The experience itself is good. It makes it easy to manage multiple sites at once, it makes it easy to manage your plugins and themes, to copy, migrate and backup. It also has great security and monitoring functions, with spam control in the comments. The problem is that many functions come from servers external to your site, this increases the latency, also its core is quite heavy even for local functions, it seems to drag an elephant. We didn't get a good performance in SEO analysis with it, maybe precisely because our focus was not to put a powerful server to serve the site. If you have the budget and multiple sites, it's sure to be a great solution.

### "Jetpack" — 5.0/5

> **Romaric** | *24 January 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Jetpack (by Automattic) provides a variety of helpful solutions for its WordPress users and including which is Jetpack boost and a few others. We use it regularly to enhance the performance of our web pages and have them run better.Jetpack boost helps us to reduce excessive server requests by constantly regenerating large CSS files and compressing them into lighter ones---this helps boost our website speed Insights.Vaultpress backup \&amp; JetPack protect help us to add an extra measure of security to our websites (for data loss, web phishing, malware, etc)  and client's in combination with WordFence and this really helps out.The Akismet anti-spam add-on helps us to stay safe from dangerous, annoying, unsolicited, and overwhelming comments from anonymous WordPress users. This works pretty well when associated with the VaultPress \&amp; Jetpack protect add-ons.With jetPack, we can create awesome tiled galleries, responsive carousels, and many other nice decorative features.Our marketing team strongly relies on JetPack CRM and social for a better experience. They create weekly posts ( on schedule) and utilize them for ad campaigns on Google, Bing, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedInThe plugin itself (JetPack) despite all its add-ons is lightweight and runs smoothly and the cost of using it is very low. I really recommend it
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing wrong with Jetpack apart from JetPack boost which sometimes can take a longer time to generate CSS files for a particular website.
> 
> The jetpack WP plugin helps our web design department to remain productive by offering our websites tremendous SEO page speed boost. It's a plugin we can't do without.

### "A truly awesome (free) WP plugin\!" — 5.0/5

> **Lois** | *15 August 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The core plugin is free - there are options to upgrade though. The visitor engagement stats are an important part of marketing data. I like that it's a tried and tested (ie. trusted) plugin - so it's updated frequently and you can rely on its quality.
> 
> **Cons**: It can be a little overwhelming at first as there are SO many features. It's not always easy to find the exact thing you're looking for. Navigating it takes some getting used to.
> 
> Overall, my experience has been generally good. However, other plugins perform better in particular areas - ie. for SEO, or contact forms. But of course, the benefit of Jetpack is it's all in one.
