So much better than rolling my own

May 15, 2021
For a while (3+ years) I was manually managing ads. Now I'm using AdRotate, and I doubt I'll ever look back. If you have one or two Google Ads, sure, your own is fine. I've got a bunch now, multiple ad networks too, and they often have expiry dates. AdRotate makes it easy to get all that done! Why four stars? It's cosmetic. 1. The sidebar icon is green and not an SVG that can match the color pattern of my wp-admin screen, so it stands out unnecessarily. 2. Every page promotes AdRotate Pro. I get it, I do, but I don't need it yet, and all those reminders feels naggy, especially since the first two menu items are promotional. 3. The middle section of options on the per-ad edit page are greyed out (being pro or features I don't use) and I can't hide them or dismiss them. Which means when I add a new ad, I do the basic work and then scroll all the way down to set the groups. 4. Usage is repeated multiple times on the per-ad edit page. 5. It would be nice that if statistics (in settings) is set to DISABLED, that the menu item went away. 6. The Dashboard Banner for notifications is on every page. It would be nice to just have a Main Dash widget ( https://developer.wordpress.org/apis/handbook/dashboard-widgets/ ) But again, those are ALL cosmetic. None interfere with anything functional, and I am happy as two clams with this decision to use AdRotate.

The best i know and work well

I'm a beginner in wp, and for what i need now it's a free version. It's works, it's simple, it's easy. Enough for now. But in future, after grow, if i need more it's possible buy the premium version.

Funciona bien

Aunque genera algunas configuraciones raras, luego de que le coges el ritmo te funcionará perfectamente

Great AD Manager

March 8, 2021
great ad manager taking that is free. would really love to be able to manage the time of the gif for each ad display on the group since not all the gifs time length is the same.

Excelente y fácil de usar

Funciona muy bien y ofrece estadísticas muy interesantes. Yo estaba usando una opción de pago, pero me parece que este plugin cubre perfectamente todas mis necesidades, tanto de Adsense como de anuncios con imágenes.

Total waste of money ( pro version ) *Warning you will never get some refund

February 17, 2021
Don't buy the pro version of adrotate... except if you plan to loose some money if things don't work like they should. Can't access dashboard for advertiser. Ads not showing up. I have so many problems. I just asked for a refund. »But that’s not how sales/refunds work, without giving me a chance to help you out a refund is not even on the table for consideration» -ajdg.solutions I have send an email pointing out that advertiser dashboard is not working... their solution .... «navigate to website.com/wp-admin it’ll work.» Seriously? Really?! This is not a solution. I give you a chance to help me out, and I receive this answer in my email! Come on! It just doesn't work!! What can I do more? After that email I have received, I ask for a refund, because things don't work like they should, i'm not satisfy!! They reply back offering me some help!!! It's too late! I just asked for a refund because i'm not satisfy with this plugin.. because too many thing don't work! I just don't have any more time to loose! With Adrotate, customers satisfaction is not a priority. Money is the only priority. Allright Take my money. ajdg.solutions
