Slow Support but lots of potential
The support for the pro version is very slow (I'm yet to get a response!). So, my rating will be lower just for that fact... The plugin looks good but needs improvement. Support for more page builders (namely Cornerstone by Theme Co and even Gutenberg) for building out the dashboard. I'm surprised the plugins dev did not decide to start with Gutenberg support, to be honest.
