  • The plugin is excellent, simple and effective

    The plugin is excellent, we just need to add a functionality in the WordPress administrator to order the posts from most to least useful (DESC order).

  • Easy to configure and straight forward plugin

    The plugin is simple and does the job very well. Install, select which post types to display in WordPress Dashboard > Settings > Helpful and you are good to go. The plugin has scope for growth by adding few features as others have suggested. However, it is a useful plugin as it is. Thank you for sharing it with the community.

  • Ok-ish

    Works as expected on PC. Works terrible on mobile. There's no padding in mobile, and the widget looks broken.

  • Best Plugin for feedback

    This plugin is very simple to use and highly recommended. The best thing is: It is compatible with the most recent WordPress version.
