 * Hi,
 * Maybe a daft question but…
 * With all these features, is there a need to also have wordfence installed?

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for your question.
 * We never comment other plugins.
 * The only thing we can say is that Shield provides a full protection. But, whether
   or not to use both plugins or only 1 of them is up to you.
 * Regards,
    Jelena
