Awesome

A very simple, but extremely functional and working application. Thank you very much, I quickly solved the problems of synchronizing two inconsistent databases. Everything is very convenient.

Contacted support via website and they solved my issue

I was having trouble with a custom function on my export, and they took care of it in short order and fixed it.

Not working, no further support

Quote from Author:wp-cron is part of WordPress, not part of this plugin.

It works on some websites and not on others.

I use it on some websites and it works, but on another one I have it doesn’t work, and support doesn’t exist even if you pay, there should be a telegram or Skype to talk to support
