Best site management plugin yet
“We’ve struggled to find a tool that helps us properly manage our clients’ sites, having trialled MainWP, WP Umbrella and ManageWP, all of which fell short of the mark. Jason at Siteward is responsive to feedback and actually uses the tool regularly, so it keeps improving as the feature set gets richer. I’d recommend Siteward to any agency or freelancer that looks after multiple client sites.”
