"The Must-use WordPress Dashboard"

3.5/5

What do you like best about ManageWP?

The free features make this hard to beat by any other WordPress dashboard service. I love that at a glance, I can see all of my WordPress sites and manage them in one location, pushing plugin, theme, and core updates to each site individually or all sites automatically, at the same time. It even works with WordPress Multisite. While I don't pay for the premium per-site features--I don't need them, they're all cheaply priced. The Uptime Monitor is only $1 per month, per site. Worth every penny. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageWP?

My only dislike is that you can't change the URL for a website after you've added it. You'd need to delete it and start over. A minor annoyance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ManageWP:

If you have more than one or two WordPress sites that you're managing, use ManageWP and take advantage of the premium options, especially the Backups and Safe Update feature for your plugins. Many plugins will update fine, but there are many plugins that might crash your entire site if an update doesn't work with your theme (I've seen this multiple times). You need a way to restore previous plugin versions, and ManageWP offer this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ManageWP solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a way to centrally manage all our public WordPress sites, honestly just so we don't forget how many we have and which ones need updates. The ManageWP dashboard saves me hours each month, allowing me to update plugins for each site individually or in batches automatically. That alone is worth using this. Managing plugin updates can be really time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That fact that I can administrate all our websites from the same dashboard with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Option For Managing Multiple WordPress Sites"

5/5

What do you like best about ManageWP?

Allows easy access to dashboards, plugin updates and backups for many sites.

The automatic backups work well and provide easy restores and downloading of specific files or parts of the database.

The site clone feature works very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageWP?

Interface can be a little slow sometimes.

Loading sites can take time.

No options to change length of time backups are kept for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ManageWP:

Give it a shot. They offer easy plans to get started so it's worth a try to see if it helps you.

The features are great and the ability to only pay for the features you need for a specific site really helps control costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ManageWP solving and how is that benefiting you?

As Agency managing over 75 WordPress Sites having easy access to all our sites and keeping them all backed up and up to date can be tough. Having everything in one place makes it much simpler.

Whenever we setup a new site adding it to ManageWP is one of the first steps we take. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Manage WP is vital to my business"

5/5

What do you like best about ManageWP?

My favorite part about Manage WP is being able to see all the websites I manage at a glance, and see which ones need to be updated and if there are any problems. The paid features are also great, and I like that you can choose which sites you upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageWP?

I don't like that the Safe Update feature takes so long. I really feel that it could be quicker but this isn't a deal breaker for me. If I used safe update for all plugins and sites, I'd be updating 24/7. I just choose to use Safe Update on major updates like themes and Woocommerce and other heavy plugins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ManageWP:

I recommend trying it, it's free and very easy to set up! You can't lose when you try the software. I started with 2 clients and updated their sites with Manage WP once and decided I couldn't live without it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ManageWP solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am solving a lot of problems, like keeping up with individual usernames and passwords for all clients, logging into each one individually to do updates, etc. I keep important information in the notes section, and I can run security scans and backups all without actually going into the site dashboard. It saves SO MUCH TIME. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Wordpress Sites Manager"

5/5

What do you like best about ManageWP?

It's the easiest way to update or give maintenance to wordpress websites from a single dashboard. Just with few click you can update all your websites. Also with safe update you can rollback a corrupt or wrong update/upgrade without issues. This i a great time saver tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageWP?

It has some great free features, but maybe add some others to give the users more flexibility. Also there are some tools that could be great to have them free with others providers not just GoDaddy. Timeout sometimes is about the plugins, so maybe they can improve that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ManageWP:

Faster and easier to implement, better support and response times from support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ManageWP solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wordpress maintenance is easier and faster than before. Also the customers reports are really great. They are easy to understand and it's really great to have this job done with few clicks. Also the Security Reports helps you keep your websites monitored without investing on a third party tool.

The performance Reports also cover some tools like pagespeed and pingdom tools just in one report and run the performance report per site just needs one click. And If you pay for the automatic reports it's really: setup once and forget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Prefer the old version. "

2.5/5

What do you like best about ManageWP?

I was a fan of the original ManageWP. It was simple and had great tools for very little or no cost. The new incarnation known as Orion is confusing, and seems like a lot of GUI that is not required. I spend a great deal of time looking for the information I need. I was excited during the beta but it just seems to have fallen flat. There are still useful tools but with every click there is a pay wall. I would just prefer a simple pricing scale that I can choose and know what I am getting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageWP?

The look and feel is overdone and tiresome to use. I would prefer a more minimal workflow.

The main dashboard is ok as it is similar to the old version but the rest is just too much to dig though and keep getting pay wall blocks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes more sense if you're a developer"

2.5/5

What do you like best about ManageWP?

The best feature about Manage WP is the ability to save all logins from one platform. Also it's an easy way to integrate other tools such as analytics and see the changing stats every day without logging into each tool separately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageWP?

What I dislike most about this product is the difficulty of finding where things are. If there is an update or recommended thing, it's hard for someone who isn't a developer to know where to look or what to click on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
