Decent Plugin with a Few Hiccups

I’ve had the lifetime upgrade to this plugin for a while and it works well enough, but they recently updated it to add several inactive menu items for WPXPO’s other plugins in the backend menu. I messaged them about this and was told that they were added for “promotional purposes” and there was no way to get rid of these. After leaving a negative review, they jumped to action and updated the plugin to remove the offending menu ads, but I’d prefer a company to use more foresight and customer feedback to make changes and not just make changes for damage control.

The plugin itself is a decent value, but they could use a little more work figuring out how customers use it to polish some of the functions. For instance, there’s a fixed Customer role and a fixed Guest role, but my company doesn’t need both and there’s no way to remove one or the other so I have to duplicate all the customer pricing into the guest pricing as well which is annoying. The Dynamic Rules is a great feature to simplify pricing discounts, but it doesn’t always seem to work consistently. It’s also annoying that there’s no option to see the different prices from the admin login on a product page without cross referencing with the product backend. I also can’t seem to find a way to apply any of the pricing rules manually from the backend when creating an order for a customer so I have to create an order from the frontend while using a User Switching plugin in order to get the correct pricing and then switch back to an admin user to finalize the order. There are a number of other little inconveniences like this, but ultimately the core of the plugin does what it says it will do.

Overall, it’s decent and worth a look, but there’s still some room for improvement.
