POOR SUPPORT
I have tried to reach out to support without any success. I looked at the forum and see there are other companies with the same issue we are experiencing. I need to report possible abandonment to WP re: plug-in.

Not Recommended
Out of the box on a local Wordpress development version with Elementor Pro it conflicts and can't load the Elementor editor. Would not recommend even testing this unless you have time you prefer to waste.

Not recommended
Little to no documentation. Support is absolutely atrocious.

leaves hard-to-remove traces on the database
When you remove this plugin, it leaves its traces on the database. This becomes a nuisance when you're using other plugins that are for custom user roles.
