User sentiment analysis

Users generally praise the Wordpress plugin for its easy integration, excellent customer support, and its capability to handle complex transactions, including advanced features like customizing payment banners. Another standout point is the support team's rapid and helpful responses, often going above expectations to resolve issues, even providing specific coding solutions. However, significant drawbacks are reported. Users have experienced critical issues like failed or duplicate payments, inconsistencies in payment processing, and bugs related to updates. These problems have sometimes resulted in considerable financial losses and operational disruptions. Additionally, customization options are limited, and technical support can be inconsistent, with some cases of unresolved issues and delayed responses.

When activating the plugin and entering my PayPal credentials I got the message “We’re having trouble making sure it’s you”. The support link led to a phone number I called and they had me submit a support ticket. The next day I get an email from PayPal saying they’re closing my ticket and that they can’t help me all I can do is wait or try in a different location. Ridiculous support process and terrible support.

The plugin works fine. The sheer amount of negative reviews seems odd to me. That being said, I only use the option to check out using Paypal on the checkout page. No fuss setup, seems solid enough.

I was scared by all the negative reviews but decided to use the plugin anyway. I never had major issues and when I did notice error logs, the support team replied very quickly and patiently via email.

This Paypal plugin is one of the worst plugin I ever used: so much problems and bugs, and money lost with customers angry because they cannot pay.
