 * 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.

 * unoriginal23,
    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.
