Reviews
Typical Narcissistic plugin
By 
The standard edition of AdRotate works well enough but the constant upselling to the pro version is beyond annoying. You cannot work in any area of WordPress without a stupid banner ad promoting an upsell to AdRotate Pro taking up valuable real estate as you're trying to work. When you click "maybe later" to get rid of the banner, it navigates you away from what you're doing over to the AdRotate plugin. VERY ANNOYING!!!!
Great Product: Simple, Straightforward, Efficient, Powerful
By 
Top-notch product, has everything we need in an extremely straightforward and easy to use interface. Built-in documentation/tips/instructions appear throughout, making implementation fool-proof.
A rare developer that is genuinely interested in making better products.
By 
Arnan quickly made some significant improvements to the AdRotate plugin after we discovered a couple of problems that became apparent on a larger site with 100's of active ads and 1,000's of archived ads. He was quick to reply after I submitted the information and screencasts to clearly show where we were running into a problem and had a beta ready to test within a few hours.
The best ad manager for WordPress

Easy to use banner rotator solution. Working like a charm.
Many thanks to the creator.
Easy to set up and works very well
By 
I recently installed the free version of AdRotate and was very impressed with how easy it was to get set up and working from the beginning. The support manuals are detailed and I like the simplicity of managing individual banners, grouping them and using shortcodes to place adverts where you need them.
It's very flexible, intuitive and I'll be looking at the Pro Licence next partly for extra features and partly to support Arnan's work as a developer.
It works fine!

I am using and AdRotate works well for my neede
