Highly recommend it
This was my first time using this plugin, but I encountered a problem that the plugin couldn't solve. I checked their YouTube tutorials but couldn't find the solution I needed. On a whim, I left a message asking for help, and to my surprise, they replied very quickly, telling me to submit a support ticket. I did, and their technical support responded quickly and helped me solve my problem. The key point is that I hadn't used any of their Pro versions; they helped me resolve my issue for free. I'm very grateful and highly recommend it to everyone.

Fantastic Plugin! Helped Us Discover Even More Great Tools
We have been using Sticky Header Effects for Elementor for a while now and it’s been a great help in our projects. The latest version has a few more ads, but overall the plugin works smoothly. It also helped us find Nexter Extension, which we now use on all our WordPress sites. We’ve shared some feedback in their survey and are looking forward to more awesome updates from the team. Highly recommended for anyone using Elementor.

Plugin was great, now it's bloatware!
What a shame! This used to be a very useful, simple, and straightforward plugin. Once upon a time it didn't add any marketing features to your dashboard, didn't try and upsell you on PRO features or other plugins. The plugin developer either sold it to someone else or gave up its rights as of v2.1.0 it now it does exactly the opposite of that, I clicked 2-3 buttons that installed another plugin "WPDesignKit" and they're constantly trying to shove other plugins and upsells down your throat in the plugin's new dashboard and your WordPress dashboard. You can roll the plugin back to earlier versions, but then you're missing out on the alleged "Bug fixes and Improvements" in their updates and dealing with (1 Plugin needs to be updated) notices.... I am using it on version 1.7.8 - the last good version.

Incredibly useful
The sticky panel feature is incredibly useful. I added it to a sidebar for important links, and it works flawlessly across all screen sizes. It keeps the user experience smooth and professional. Great plugin!

Ups and downs over time
Ups and downs over time in development, also this tool mentions:IMPORTANT: This plugin does NOT control the sticky position of the header. Please use the above Motion Effects tab sticky options to make the header sticky. but the opposite is true, if you do activate Elementor's Sticky Menu option your menu will mess up and not return to full width upon window size changes. It took me some time to figure this out. I was about to ditch the plugin. Please devs, remove this mention.
