Description

This plugin allows you to quickly swap between user accounts in WordPress (in one click). This is very helpful for admins or customer support users to access any user account in one click. You can quickly switch between user accounts and act as the customer in your store.

With this tool, you can add a product to the cart and create an order for your customer. This can be very useful if you are placing orders over the phone and providing technical support and assistance to your customer accounts.

Not Free

It's not free, limit first page, but easily to null and remove limited

Misleading

Plugin states "The ability to access any user account without having the user password (Just click the button Login as in the user’s list)" I wanted to use this to test out permissions for certain groups.. Well that turned out to be a big waste of time. Gotta upgrade to the "Pro" version to do the very thing this plugin is claiming to do.

no use of without paid version

after intalling pluing, you will have to purchase inoder to do any thing. so its no of use as free, I uninstalled it within 2 minutes.

Not useful and misleading information

No, not this way, this is not a plugin, this is begging for money.

Its not free and also only allow to check 10 users

The description does not contain anything regarding paid version that needs to view all users or its free versions limitations.

Not free, not open source
