Offers special feature but customization is limited
I wanted to display a popup announcement requiring site visitors to click on the Agree button before closing the popup box. This plugin does the job while many other plugins don't include this feature. Though, customization is limited.

Tried 10 other plugins, this one is BEST!
I tried: Elegance Modal Box, WP Modal, Popup Maker and many many more. ALL of them have issues showing a simple image in full screen. This is the ONLY plugin which has no bloat, and is able to easily show images as full screen. Also a HUGE plus for not taking over the Admin Menu, it sits perfectly in setting > popup. Instead of ALL the other plugins pushing their plugin into the main menu options. As a fellow dev, I would pay for this versions.

Nice Plugin But no support
Nice plugin but im facing an issue and there is no support. I hope this changes.

No documentation
There is no documentation at all, so this plugin is pretty much useless for advanced uses.

Good simple yet flexible plugin
Just lack of information... Probably the author should put detailed description and screenshots.

The best no-nonsense popup plugin
If you (like me) are tired of bloated popup-plugins and just want one with good and focused core functionality, this is the plugin to get. It does exactly what i want from a popup-plugin.
