    I have been using Soliloquy Sliders on multiple sites for many months now, and have not yet been dissatisfied. The plugin can create quite versatile sliders with great detail to customization, without impacting load speed as drastically as other slider plugins have.

    I have considered only one immediate recommendation which would truly set this plugin aside from the others – my recommendation is the implementation of an option for alternative mobile photos per slide/image, if/when it is detected that a user is on mobile device or under certain screen size.

    For example, let’s pretend we have a website containing a full-width slider that uses photos “A, B, and C” – more often than not, despite the push towards a “mobile-first” mentality, Photos A, B and C are often generated/intended for viewing on desktop browser with more detail and promotional content then a mobile device would typically be able to fit, so as the screen size decreases, the image will gradually become less legible (zoomed-out) as a user’s device size decreases (under a full-width scenario). The plugin should offer the ability to “replace” Photos A, B, and C with, let’s say, Photos A2, B2, C2, which would be created at a smaller size and designed with mobile users in mind. Such a feature would make this plugin stand far in front of all other slider plugins currently available!

    I decided to purchase the PRO edition of this plugin (99 sites, lifetime) and have still been satisfied after several months of paid usage.

    Thank you for your efforts!
