EWWW Image Optimizer Reviews
"Ewww image optimizer takes image compression of blog in another level"
Overall: Before using ewww image optimizer, my website keeps slowing down, image loading very slow. When i start using this software for my problem, like a magic my website speed speed up. I am able to optimize all previous image as bulk optimization in no time. New uploaded images also automatically optimizes, most importantly i am able to optimize JPG, PNG ,GIF ,even PDF also. Images optimized inside my server , so i get result quickly.
Pros: EWWW Image optimizer do optimization in my own server, it optimize all of my media files together in my website. I am able to optimize JPG, PNG, GIF ,Even PDF also. It suggest images resizing automatically, it really helps me to decide. After images optimization of website in bulk, result same as manual optimization. Newly uploaded images automatically compressed ,so i don't have to worry about it. Price is less than similar products, i get API for such low price.
Cons: In free version, i have less control of optimization. For getting best result need to buy API . Bulk optimization done on my server, if my server did not have enough strength it could be crash, means my server have to strong enough to handle the load.
"The best Image Optimizer plugin for my WordPress websites"
Overall: Many years ago, I was using EWWW IO on free mode. That was a very nice time. Then, I switch during some months with a paid and good too other well known product. But, I found a discount for EWWW IO and I choose to came back on paid mode. It was like to see an old friend. The UI/UX is excellent. I am so glad to have this plugin. I highly recommend it to anyone who need to keep their WP sites performance on top. EWWW create a cache plugin (Swis) that integrates EWWW IO. The founder is kind and always there to help.
Pros: The simplicity of EWWW Image Optimizer. Once installed on your WordPress site, it does the trick smoothly. You don’t have to do anything. The images are served from their CDN at the right size and file type for your visitors.
Cons: Maybe, the possibility to purge the CDN without going to the EWWW Image Optimizer dashboard. But, I am sure that there is something like, and I don’t see it.
" I recommend this to anyone who wants to improve the speed of their website."
Overall: I have to say that EWWW Image was a lifesaver. I have a lot of advertising images on my sites, and they are pretty important. The problem was that they were so huge, and I was having a hard time dealing with that.
Pros: I've been using EWWW Image for a few weeks now and I love it. I've seen a significant increase in speed for my website, which has caused my bounce rate to go down and my conversion rate to go up. It's so great to have a plugin that I can trust to get the job done
Cons: There are few things to criticize about the plugin, possibly improving update times
"Still Going Strong!"
Overall: happy with the product, use it on multiple wordpress websites. SWIS is a win too
Pros: EWWW Image Optimizer is an established plugin, we've been using it for a while. EWWW comes with ; * Easy IO CDN * Compress API * and absolutely happy with SWIS Performance the plan i have offers pretty generous limits too.
Cons: The UI/UX could be better, looks a bit dated
"EWWW a great solution for website image optimization"
Overall: Support has been great and seems a very solid solution for image optimization.
Pros: CDN overwrites all images, so you can use background CSS images too (that are optimized). Found from tests to be one of, if not, the best for reducing image size.
Cons: A little complicated to configure. Because of the use of a CDN and overwriting the image URLs, you cannot preload images above the fold, reducing the impact of LCP improvement.
