  • Nice plugin

    You can easily edit the templates to adapt the maintenance page to your needs, allowing you to override restrictions and add custom elements like social media links, custom CSS, and more. I think the free version is very handy for tech people like me. Nice job!

  • Limited templates on free plan

    Easy to use, but limited choices on free version. I didn't get the result I was looking for, for a quick/easy short-term fix.
