Very happy with WPCompress! The site speeds are awesome and the setup is so fast. It’s taken over other plug-ins for me with its no fuss results. Drilling down for fine tuning is simple and effective, and the default setting are great out of the bag. Couldn’t be happier.

For the longest time I always struggle with the optimizers, rockets, delayed and keep having to work with issues every time there was an update, a new plug-in, or new content on the site. With WP Compress I technically just install, put aggresive mode, and voila! It just works. My sites from 11 seconds went down to 2.2s, I kept optimizing and now it’s only 90ms

I am very grateful I came across this plugin. I tried dozens of speed optimization plugins for WordPress and spent lots of time/money yet never achieved the performance desired. This was until I found WP Compress and gave it a try. It has a great plug-in, team, support, and prices. I highly recommend it and hope it becomes the first option out there so others do not have to spend the time/money I’ve spent, with no similar result. Thank you WP Compress for the great job you are doing. Greetings, Leonard

I was impressed by how much instant optimization I was able to do on my WP site with WP Compress – and it was easy. The real time/live optimization is an added bonus on top of that, but IMO, it was worth it just for the initial optimization process. And the company is very responsive and goes above and beyond not only in continuously upgrading the product, but also with support. I wish all companies were like this.

I had been having an issue for a long time with the FAQ accordion. For some reason, the accordion wouldn’t toggle on click. I tried everything, but I was unable to fix it. When James heard about this issue from a survey I participated in, he emailed me to offer their support so they could resolve the issue. I was unable to manage time, but when I contacted them, James personally handled it and provided a patch/bug-free plugin copy to resolve the issue. After updating the plugin, the issue has been resolved, and now the FAQ accordion is working fine, and the webpage loading speed seems better and faster. Thanks for the awesome service.
