Excellent plugin and 5 star support, fair pricing too
I switched over from another image contest plugin, where the developer is no longer reachable...I tested totalcontest it in my dev environment first and had exccelent support by Mohamed. There were no functional issues, it was me who had to learn and better understand it. I even got some features adapted.Overall this was the best experience with product and support since I am dealing with WP plugins.I can highly recommend it.

Wonderful product and amazing support
I recently switched to Total Contest from another plugin I had been using for many years. The modern design and intuitive navigation were what convinced me to make the change. Everything was easy to set up and looked beautiful right out of the box. Mohamed was very eager to help with all the customizations I needed during the setup, and he didn't hesitate to answer any questions I had. Thank you for developing such an awesome plugin, guys!

Well designed - lean & tidy concept and competent support
While other plugins quickly become unmanageable, this logically structured competition module lets you get started right away. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact the support team. We have received a solution for every request so far! Best image competition module with fair pricing for the pro version if you need modal view, extended security functions and more.
