  • Excellent

    Excellent, it even allows you to upload existing files before configuring the plugin, something other providers don't allow. I hope that feature remains free forever.

  • Kills server performance - queries database on every page load even when sync is

    Update: This review was for an older version of the plugin. At the time, it caused severe server performance issues. Even after stopping background sync, it ran database queries on every page load for every image. With ~500k monthly traffic, MySQL CPU reached ~400% and server load went above 20. Disabling the plugin immediately dropped the load to around 2. The developer later reached out, investigated the query issues, and released fixes. I haven’t retested the latest version yet, but I appreciate the responsiveness and effort to resolve the problems. This plugin destroyed my server performance. Even after stopping the background sync, it runs database queries on EVERY page load for EVERY image. With 500k monthly traffic, my MySQL hit 400% CPU and server load went to 20+.The moment I disabled this plugin, load dropped from 20 to 2.Switched to WP Offload Media Lite - no issues at all. Avoid this plugin if you have any significant traffic.

  • Technical support + performance

    Technical support was very responsive and fixed the problem as quickly as possible. The plugin is excellent, fast, and performs wonderfully. I recommend trying it immediately; it automatically transfers old and new files.

  • Great plugin!

    The initial setup was really frustrating for me, since I’m not tech-savvy. After staying up two nights struggling with it, I couldn’t take it anymore. I reached out to their online support just to give it a shot—and to my surprise, they fixed the big issue for me in just ten minutes. I’m so happy I found such a great plugin, and I definitely have to leave it the best review possible!

  • The best plugin, with excellent support

    Easy, simple, Efficient and Free. This plugin is everything you're looking for if you want to start your Media Cloud implementation, and best of all, it allows you to sync your entire library easily and for free. I had an issue with file syncing, and the support was super-efficient and professional. They reviewed and resolved it in the best way possible. I'll wait for the premium version to purchase the license and implement it on all my sites. Thanks for your efforts, keep it up!
