Telemetry Data

Bit SMTP uses wp-telemetry to collect some telemetry data upon the user’s confirmation. This helps us to troubleshoot problems faster & make product improvements.

Wp-Telemetry DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY start gathering data; rather, it will gather basic telemetry data when a user allows it. We collect the data to ensure a great user experience for all our users.

Lightweight, but Lacking in Some Features

By JS (rucifa) on September 8, 2025

The interface is simple, and while the settings don’t seem too complicated, some parts still feel rather basic.

At the moment, I am using Fluent SMTP, and its best feature is the fallback mechanism — when option one fails, option two can automatically take over. This is one area where I hope Bit SMTP can improve as well.

In addition, it has not been updated for quite some time. I hope that, alongside enhancing other plugins, more attention can be given to further improving Bit SMTP.

We recommend using Bit SMTP!

By JINGU YOUN (jinguyoun) on August 15, 2025

There are probably many other SMTP plugins out there, but what's impressive is that they're consistently maintained and supported from a user perspective. There will undoubtedly be opinions and pros and cons, but the easy-to-use interface and configuration are excellent. I use a plugin to connect to my email server and Google SMTP for security reasons. I tested it for three months and haven't had any major issues. This is because the developers are well-developed and maintain it.
I highly recommend trying Bit SMTP among SMTP plugins. I'm writing this review as someone who has experienced its fast operation and processing!

Bit Apps was impressed by their booth at WordCamp 2025 Philippines, where they listened to users' opinions and issues, and provided detailed explanations. I trust them and recommend using it.

아마 다른 SMTP들도 많습니다. 하지만 꾸준히 관리되고 사용자 관점에서 바라보고 지원을 한다는 것이 인상적입니다. 분명히 여러 의견과 장단점이 존재할 것입니다. 하지만 쉬운 인터페이스와 설정들이 잘됩니다. 저는 개인서버에 사이트를 사용하고 메일서버 연결을 하기도하고 보안을 위해서 구글 SMTP에 연결하기 위해 플러그인을 사용합니다. 저는 테스트 3개월을 했고 적용했지만 큰 문제와 이슈가 없었습니다. 이점은 개발자들이 잘 만들고 유지하고 있다는 사실입니다.
저는 SMTP 플러그인 중에 Bit SMTP 를 한번 사용해 볼 것을 추천드립니다. 저는 빠르게 작동하고 처리하고 있다는 것을 해본 사람으로서 생생 후기를 남깁니다!

Bit apps는 wordcamp 2025 필리핀 부스를 열어서 사용자들의 의견과 문제점들을 잘 듣고 알리고 설명하는 모습에 인상이 깊었습니다. 저는 신뢰하고 사용해 볼 것을 추천드립니다.

Love it minimalistic

Love it minimalistic

Doesn't work

By darkshad9999 on April 13, 2025

Doesn't work and yes I was using the right login and password and authentication

and ports on godaddy.com I was using port 465 for outgoing SMTP mail and I had it setup

correctly I even tested that the connections where working with Thunderbird my email client and I could connect in using that and send and recieve mail but I could't use this this plugin the test messages failed

even with the right login and password I was using the FULL email address as the username which

is what we have to use on godaddy.com like test@domain.com and the correct password. I installed WP mail SMTP and it worked right away which is another plugin with the SAME settings! This was not a settings issue or a login / password issue the plugin does not work!

Great plugin!

By dvamvourellis (19db) on March 26, 2025

Easy to use and light, i would love to see an optional error log for failed emails.

Weak solution

By tutnet on October 1, 2024

Mismatch with screenshot. No opportunity for GMail integration

Does the job

By thelostswede on September 30, 2024

Simple to use and does the job it's supposed to do.

Note that you need to use the right settings for it to actually work though, which can be a bit tricky if you don't know your SMTP settings.

Hassle free and easy

By khumaer on July 10, 2024

This is so easy and so much needed plugin!

3 Test Messages Failed

By wdk3 on May 30, 2024

Installed and activated this plug in. Receive a message stating SMTP settings correct and established connection to ZOHO server.

Tried sending 3 test emails; each email failed to send.

Could not disable and remove plug in fast enough. If you want to waste time, this is a good way to do so but I prefer to watch the grass grow.

Powerful, Easy and Simple to use! I Love It!

By Edfrank (edfrank) on March 25, 2024
