Horrible, invasive, clunky

What a horrible, clunky, and invasive plugin. Every wp-admin page refresh I get an admin notice that takes up half my screen and after a few seconds gets smaller with a weird animation. To get this no

Just what we needed

Fast to install and grasp. Feature rich = future proof. We’re happy.

Used extensively with other apps in domain without hiccup. Been using for years and will continue to do so.
