A Great Caching Plugin
by MCGWD·4 months ago·2 replies

I highly recommend this plugin. I’ve tried many other caching plugins and they are all too bloated, overly complicated, or have issues playing nice with other plugins. The fact that object caching via either Memcached or Redis is integrated right into the plugin is a huge plus. The user interface is also clean and simple to use, with the settings logically grouped into different sections. Finally the plugin doesn’t constantly try to upsell or nag you into purchasing their Pro version (which by the way is reasonably priced compared to its competitors).

One feature request would be an option to move the “Powered Cache” menu into the Settings menu. This would help keep the main menu for my client’s sites clean and simple.

Excellent Plugin and Support
by seydac·9 months ago

I have tried different plugins however so far I found PoweredCache to be the best for this purpose. Easy to install, easy to use even for those who are not very knowledgeable about these matters.

Had a slight problem with all updates taking place and submitted a ticket to support which immediately took action. Mustafa Uysal (from support) went above his responsibilities to help me in fixing this. Thank you for everything, really appreciated.

Excellent!

This is without a doubt one of the best caching plugins available. It’s the first plugin that I’ve seen work correctly with logged in users without needing to modify anything. The separate cache actually worked in all my tests. Great work!
