Good but Limited
Works well for basic email setup & easy to connect with Mailchimp. UI is simple. But needs more flexibility in forms. Overall, a good plugin. tnx 👍

Good plugin for connecting Mailchimp with WP. Setup was pretty easy and forms started collecting emails without much hassle. UI is clean too. A few more design options would be nice, but overall works

Allow Multiple Accounts Reviews
Still works with WordPress 5.9
Even with UltimateMember, just change user registration form to not require a unique email address
Still works like a charm in 2020
