A powerful plugin, I recommend it
by porton·3 weeks ago

Advanced Ads is really powerful both for inserting all kinds of ads, and for other tasks, such as inserting arbitrary code. I highly recommend it.

Great app and great support
by leemarquis·1 month ago

Tried a few advertising plugins and very pleased with how this plugin is structured and how well it works and the options available. I had some separate issues setting getting the CSS right so the ad placements worked, but the support provided was first class and they provided the perfect solution.

Efficient customer support
by webfacto·1 month ago

Less than 2 hours to get a response and a fix for our problem, many thanks to them!

Disappointed with product stability
by paywall·1 month ago

We’ve been loyal Advanced Ads users across 100+ sites for years, and for a long time, the plugin was rock-solid.

Unfortunately, over the past year or so, nearly every update has introduced new issues — enough that we’re now actively evaluating dedicated ad servers like Broadstreet and AdButler for our clients. We genuinely want to keep recommending Advanced Ads, but the recurring instability has made that impossible for us at this point.

Great customer support
by matthewkeyslive·3 months ago

The product itself works well and you can tell the folks that developed it put a lot of thought and effort into it (and, they continue to update the plugin with new features and bug fixes). What really impressed me is the level of customer support: Had a billing issue, and Ahmed promptly fixed it to my satisfaction. Will be a customer for years to come!
