Jetpack Reviews
Pros
Firstly, let me say that Jetpack is a fabulous tool for all blogs. From the way that it handles spam to security and load time, it's a lifesaver all over the place.
What I like the most about Jetpack is its free image CDN feature, I used it at one of my clients' website and the results were immediately noticeable.
The experience itself is good. It makes it easy to manage multiple sites at once, it makes it easy to manage your plugins and themes, to copy, migrate and backup.
Trust my words-This plugin is all you need to start ranking immediately in search engines. I highly recommend you purchasing the "PREMIUM" pack to exclusively enjoy its awesome "MAGIC JET FEATURES.
Cons
Nearly every little feature comes with individual monthly costs. I'd be more likely to buy something and own it rather than pay rent.
Can sometimes conflict with other plugins or themes, has a tendancy to "takeover" certain aspects of your site without your knowledge.
One of our mantras with wordpress websites is "When it's broken, disable Jetpack first.
The problem is that many functions come from servers external to your site, this increases the latency, also its core is quite heavy even for local functions, it seems to drag an elephant.
"Amazing software, probably one of the best!"
Overall: Outstanding! I enjoy every feature this software has to offer, no complains at all.
Pros: No word will express how good this app is! Probably one of the most reliable ones out there. I use it for my WordPress blog and it is extremely fast, responsive and offers amazing features on the go, right from your phone.
Cons: Nothing so far, it has been absolutely amazing and a pleasure to use.
"Valuable features, once free, now expensive"
Overall: It gave me good ideas of things to code myself instead of being on another subscription. For someone not wiling or able to develop their own similar features it is a great product.
Pros: They set the standard for several of the features offered. They used to be free but over the years they have started charging for nearly everything.
Cons: You have to constantly keep it connected to their site. Nearly every little feature comes with individual monthly costs. I'd be more likely to buy something and own it rather than pay rent.
"Great features if you can deal with some bloat"
Overall: Overall, the plugin is great. If there was less bloat, it would be a perfect plugin.
Pros: Jetpack is a great free plugin for managing all your WordPress sites with a single mobile app. I have been using it for years almost solely for this purpose. The easy to use mobile app, easy plugin and theme updates, and simple post-writer can save tons of time, especially if you don't want top log into every one of your sites.
Cons: There is quite a lot of bloat and scripts that run on the front end with Jetpack. A lot of scripts can be taken care of with some simple code, but I almost wish they would move to breaking it into separate plugins.
"Excellent product"
Overall: Overall, Jetpack has been easy to use and effective on my blog. I am very happy with the product.
Pros: Jetpack is easy to use and protects my site from hackers and malware.
Cons: It's difficult to say what I don't like about Jetpack. I don't have anything that I would list as a con.
"Jetpack"
Overall: The jetpack WP plugin helps our web design department to remain productive by offering our websites tremendous SEO page speed boost. It's a plugin we can't do without.
Pros: Jetpack (by Automattic) provides a variety of helpful solutions for its WordPress users and including which is Jetpack boost and a few others. We use it regularly to enhance the performance of our web pages and have them run better.Jetpack boost helps us to reduce excessive server requests by constantly regenerating large CSS files and compressing them into lighter ones---this helps boost our website speed Insights.Vaultpress backup & JetPack protect help us to add an extra measure of security to our websites (for data loss, web phishing, malware, etc) and client's in combination with WordFence and this really helps out.The Akismet anti-spam add-on helps us to stay safe from dangerous, annoying, unsolicited, and overwhelming comments from anonymous WordPress users. This works pretty well when associated with the VaultPress & Jetpack protect add-ons.With jetPack, we can create awesome tiled galleries, responsive carousels, and many other nice decorative features.Our marketing team strongly relies on JetPack CRM and social for a better experience. They create weekly posts ( on schedule) and utilize them for ad campaigns on Google, Bing, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedInThe plugin itself (JetPack) despite all its add-ons is lightweight and runs smoothly and the cost of using it is very low. I really recommend it
Cons: Nothing wrong with Jetpack apart from JetPack boost which sometimes can take a longer time to generate CSS files for a particular website.
