• I’ve always used this plugin and it has been great, but now suddenly I am unable to migrate my site because it is over an arbitrarily imposed size limit, and so I must now pay $59 to be able to upload a slightly larger file. $59!!! that’s outrageous. I understand, you have to make money somehow, and i would pay it if i was getting $59 worth of actual value, but this size limit is completely arbitrary and exists for the sole purpose of extorting money from users. I am extremely pissed off, and will certainly think twice before using any of their plugins ever again. What complete asshats.

    unoriginal23,

    It makes it really difficult to develop high quality products for WordPress when users are not supporting the creators of the product.

    You’ve used the product, you liked it and when you had to spend money on it, you refused to do it. Could you elaborate why?

    This one star rating is unfair for the reasons given. $59 as a one time fee for unlimited sites is very generous.

    Agree with kadoogan on this one.

    60 bucks is very little money compared to the very high value of this tool. It’s not even an hours worth of work. In just 3 weeks, I’ve used this plugin at least 10 different times, with different clients.
    Convert those 10 times into the old way of migrating clients :
    – login to Plesk
    – export database, save locally
    – tar and zip files over ssh, save locally
    – login to Plesk at new domain
    – install wordpress
    – overwrite database with my .sql file
    – upload all the files, uncompress and extract in directory
    – edit records in the _options using phpMyAdmin
    – hope it all works

    Yeah …….. 60 bucks is not so much.

    At least that $59 is for Lifetime = Forever I think that is more than worth! Most of WP plugins will support you for a year of update and probably with this same price or higher.

    If it saves you a LOT of time, it works WELL, and doesn’t make you LOOSE precious resources… Buy it! It’s a Pay-Once-Use-Forever deal! What is your problem??

    The developer has to earn his life, and if you want upgrades and new features… make a little contribution.
