Quick response

Quick response, even on the weekend.
Fast and Courteous Support
By 
My pluginβs renewal date was approaching, so I went through the renewal process, but I couldnβt get it to activate properly. When I contacted support, they responded quickly and courteously, and I was able to renew it without any issuesβit was a huge help.
Great product, great service!
By 
We really like the Photo Gallery Plugin. The painter's paintings really come into their own.
In addition, the service of SupsysticΒ is great.
It's nice to see that there are companies that put honesty above profit!
First class support
By 
Had a problem with editing my galleries after installing PRO version. I'm a one-man-band without a webmaster. The support provided by Supsystic was exemplary. They stuck at the trouble shooting and eventually asked for access to my Admin. They went in and fixed what had seemed to be an intractable issue. Above and beyond the level of product support you expect these days. Great stuff!
Lots of Choices
By 
We like the different layouts that are available with this plugin. Good product.
Great product - just what we needed!
By 
I am disappointed with how misleading supsystic has been. I installed the plugin for the free features (in late 2023/early 2024) - there was no mention of them soon transitioning to a paid package.. I chose supsystic specifically as it has a gallery feature which allows clickthrough links - and was free (we are non profit). I spent hours building our gallery, only to have the clickthrough links stop working after a few weeks β because the feature was then blocked behind a paywall. I lodged a complaint at the time and was told I could be given access to the feature for free in exchange for a 5star review - which I submitted (and am now consequently editting). Again, there was no mention that there was a timeline/expiry on the free acess. Low and behold, 12months later, the feature is not working again. Blocked behind a paywall. The click through gallery links is the only feature I needed in the first place. Iβm extremely disappointed. If I knew Iβd be paying, I could have paid for another plugin to begin with, that had more flexibility and wouldnβt have wasted so much of my time trying to make the plugin suit (requires compressing images and resizing - losing image quality)
Bait and switch
By 
The page "Gallery with Horizontal Scroll" explains nowhere that the Pro edition is needed to replicate all the features. If that had been clear, I might have trialed the Pro edition. But I don't appreciate the bait and switch, and I think it speaks poorly of Supsystic.
Great flexibility and time saving!
By 
I have been using Photo Gallery Pro for a few years now, and have previously and continuously tested several other gallery plugins for WordPress. What makes me choose Photo Gallery Pro is:
Great flexibility and time savings, once you have invested the time to get to know the program.
Especially the image database with the option of bulk updating of image attributes, categorizing images and letting end users use categories to filter the display of images is a great advantage for the user experience. The ability to easily switch between different types of display of image collections and lightbox is of great value.
It broke
By 
I came back to a site I'd made for a client and the gallery no longer worked.
Subtracting features from the free version was a bad idea.
Downright Trumpian....
Stopped working
By 
Used to be a great plugin. Stopped working one day. Sad.
