Disapointing - Pro version is not production grade

By mulli.bahr on June 30, 2020

Too many issues not resolved. Not production grade. Problems: 1. Conflict with Rest API 2. Conflict with other plugins, must deactivate to update other plugins 3. No database management. I have table with over 1,000,000 rows 4. No export to csv support 5. No support for ads on mobile - try to display the same ad on large & mobile. 6. Poor use of session id, causing issues. 7. No clear link customer - campaign - appearance&clicks 8. Poor grade on Google - Layout shift I reported most of the above issues. After 10 days of help - support is gone. Worst of all, some issues were reported 2 years ago! Developer promised to fix it...

Not great - I uninstalled it after 1 hour of testing

By sarahdiggins on October 24, 2019

This plugin only really works if you're prepared to pay for the premium feature. It also is full of annoying popups that appear after every action telling you to upgrade. This is way too much and for that reason plus the fact that I was unable to do what I needed to do on the basic package, I uninstalled this within an hour of installing. I am now using Simple Banner which is honestly much better - it doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is and that's a very effective rectangular banner plugin that has no annoying popups telling me to upgrade every time I use it.

Not adapted for high traffic website

By pixelsing on October 1, 2019

For one of our client (a magazine) which have a high-level traffic website, statistics cannot be displayed for a range of more 2 ou 3 days due to memory overflow (I guess the whole datas of displays and clicks are loaded in memory instead of beeing grouped and summed by mysql). Waiting for a solution for more than 6 monthes.... Website is on a dedicated with a memory limit of 512M Last thing : wa cannot update plug-ins if we don't deactivate RB pro before. No solution either. Except that, the job is made.

Nice banners plugin

Great plugin and really fast support

The plugin was just what I needed. There was a small issue when I upgraded but the developer responded instantly and worked until it was fixed, even though it was very late.
