Reviews

Nice plugin

01 June 2022
The plugin hasn’t been updated for 2 years but it still works well. I use it instead of Google recaptcha and this has improved website loading time. It would be great if the author could update the plugin.

Works well

I’ve been using it for about a year and no issues found. Good alternative for reCaptcha. On the other hand it makes a feeling to the attacker that the site is potentially not protected and creates a temptation to trying brute force it. Dear plugin author! Please provide more info about how protection mechanism works. If Google reCaptcha is used, which version, etc.
