Simple and effective
My site was getting plagued with DoS attacks and this plugin stopped them dead in their tracks. Simple to install and setup - a massive thank you to the developers.

Works perfectly but remove any admin links on your front end
Great plugin for preventing unwanted people from trying to log in. Just remember that if you have any dynamically generated links to your site admin on the front end of your website you will have to remove them because they will be updated to point to the new URL. Removing the links can usually be done via your site admin in the Appearance section where you can customize your theme, unless you are old school and have it coded into your sidebar.php file. In that case you would have to edit that file manually. Either way it's not difficult to do and very important. Otherwise you will be giving out your new login URL, which defeats the purpose of the plugin. I'm happy to say that I posted on the support forum and got a speedy reply.

It does the job
Great plugin, too bad that the Pro is so expensive.

Does the basic job, but causes some issues
There are numerous reports of a 404 error after login because of the admin email verification screen that this plugin interferes with. The developer is not fixing this error, not addressing the support requests. The error can be bypassed by adding a line to the functions.php theme file (as someone in the support forum suggested), but this plugin doesn't deserve more than 3 starts until this is fixed.

Works as promised
I've been using this for a few months on my site, and it works exactly as promised. Just make sure you don't lose your custom slug!
