Easy to use and good support
Really easy to setup and works well. Had a small question about using it with Elementor and got a helpful answer straight away. Very happy with it so far.

Finally something simple for Google reviews
Needed to get our Google reviews onto a client’s WordPress site and didn’t want another plugin that makes you wrestle with API keys. Installed GR Widget, found the business, picked a badge layout, changed a couple of colours, put the shortcode on the homepage. Took maybe 10 minutes and it looked fine. Reviews stay updated on their own which is the main thing. Doing this for another site next week.
