Highly Customisable, Good After Sales Service by Developer
by webportal·5 months ago

The backend UI takes some time to figure out, but once you’ve figured it out, you’ll find that the plugin can do wonders. So, be prepared to go through a steep learning curve. It’s worth the journey.

After sale service is good so if there’s anything you are not sure of, the developer is glad to help via email.

Kudos to the developer for creating this plugin.

Excellent Plugin, Clear Directions
by PigeonLady·1 year ago

Excellent Plugin! The install directions are very well written and easy to follow. This is an awesome program with everything you could possibly want.

Amazing Plugin Worth Every Penny!
by pompousjemus·1 year ago

Purchased the PRO version of this plugin and have found it to be exactly what I was looking for. There is nothing out there like it! The backend is extensive and after about 15 minutes of playing around with it, I was able to create and customize the look, feel and function to exactly what I wanted.

In addition, the support was amazing when needed. Very quick and efficient. The creator also updates the plugin often which I love. Always improving it! Would highly recommend!

Lot of futures with useless UI
by vszilu·1 year ago·3 replies

Lot of very good futures with tons of option, BUT:

The UI is terrible at the back- and front end too:
– design comes from ages of Netscape Navigator
– incredible long options pages without tabs
– can’t manage default settings
– in the free version can’t hide pro options, what’s have very frustrating green background

I spent hours for testing, but I can’t find setting of upload qty limitation – maybe thanks for the ui.
This plugin need deep knowledge, but the documentation is very-very pure.

This plugin is very potent, but in this form useless for our photoclub.
Sorry. We will not buy the pro (and not use the free too).

This plugin is what I need !
by ikarel·1 year ago·1 reply

I started this year with the second Rigid Inflatable Boat Photo Contest based on the plugin. The reasons are:

  • Adequate after sales support: fast response and always correct solutions.
  • Client-centered
  • The jury members find it easy to vote and comment.

A few remarks:

  • As an admin the UI needs some getting used to.
  • There are many ways to sort but I would really like to sort alphabetically as well.
  • The search function needs some attention, it can be more accurate.

Overall

I’ve searched for plugins to have a competition on my website and this one ticks all the boxes for me. Congrats to the developers and the helpdesk.
