User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	Create Website Builder No answers on this topic	Automattic WordPress VIP really changed the game when it comes to WordPress CMS and Content Management. A one-stop shop for all our client's business needs. We are focusing on Content Management instead of technicalities. The big advantage is the security features covering all recent vulnerabilities that any WordPress developer/user wastes lots of precious time fixing/updating. Performance-wise, WordPress VIP is definitely up there. We’ve been doing lots of optimization work over the last few years. Every client wants to score 100. With WordPress VIP we decreased the time spent on optimization significantly and now feel confident with taking more performance optimisation work than we did before. Lastly, maybe the most important for every business is the support quality. WordPress VIP runs a superb support team with phenomenal knowledge and expertise. Quick to respond and solves issues here and now. It is definitely recommended. Incentivized Mitko Kochkovski Owner & Senior Developer Read full review

Support Rating	Create Website Builder No answers on this topic	Automattic The people who work for WordPress VIP clearly are passionate about representing the organisation. Therefore when support is required, they do go above and beyond what you may expect in terms of overall support. They take security very seriously, and due to the nature of VIP, it's rarely a concern for the end-user, if at all. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Create Website Builder No answers on this topic	Automattic Our team manages 4 different brands' websites and before WordPress VIP we were using multiple different hosts including DreamHost and AWS. These were convoluted and didn't offer the enterprise features for our organization that WP VIP was capable of. We also considered Pantheon, but they were not Wordpress-centric enough for the direction we were going. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Create Website Builder No answers on this topic	Automattic Working as a WordPress VIP gold partner has helped our business grow from 12 staff to 28 staff in 2 years.
