Very useful plugin for me and outstanding support
I think I have been using BD for nearly four years now and it's a very important, and valuable, part of my web provisions. There have been things that I would still like changed and support have agreed they are on the worklist but their recent support has been outstanding, unique in my experience of support for plugins and probably the best experience of any sort of support for any services. Thanks.
