We find this plugin useful, but it takes up more space in our database than the entire rest of our site! I’m on the technical side, so I can say that it’s not obviously slowing our site down, which is good. I know our business side finds the data useful and looks at it regularly.

Прекрасный плагин, довольна много параметров отслеживания покупателей. Если кому-то не будит хватать, можно заказать под свои нужды дополнительный параметр. Жаль что пока нет в валюте Украинской гривны, надеюсь она вскоре появится. Желаю удачи в разработке. Успехов.

Hi, Hats off to the Tao team that built this. This is an amazing plugin: clean, concise, detailed (without it being overwhelming), and very intuitive. It doesn’t take much to understand how it works. Thanks a bunch for releasing this to the public. I’ll definitely be buying one of your addons (Import & Export) in the near future to support you. Keep up the amazing work.
