Instantly and effectively broke my test site and prevented me from logging in once the site was back up. Absolute rubbish. Glad I tested it on our dev site rather than a client site.

This is really one of most interesting two factors plugin for WordPress. Unfotunally, it says that my admin account is not protected and say to look at my profile to activate it. In the users view, there is a Rublon icon that say my account is protected. WTF ? There is no any options in the user profile page…

I started having problems last week when it started generating error #400 code instead of opening the wp dashboard right away. I was able to re-load the page to get to my dash. But the error messages continued until I took the plugin offline. Error messages stopped. Prior to that time, it was solid.

In the last two months I’ve been locked out from 3 or 4 of my websites by Rublon. I was using my usual laptop which worried me. Changed no settings, didn’t update anything major. Let me down one too many times and now looking for alternatives. DON”T USE THIS SOFTWARE.

We have been using Rublon for about a year now. While it seems to work when it is turned on, there are definitely issues. Example: it is not set up to work with WPMU DEV support access. So every time we open the backdoor to allow support access, we have to deactivate Rublon. When we reactivate it a day or two later, we get an error message that says “Warning! Your account’s protection is disabled. Ask yor [sic] Administrator for more information.” So we send an email to support. The error message disappears a day or two after that with no explanation from Rublon support. This also happens whenever we have to deactivate plugins (including Rublon) to test for conflicts — which happens every few weeks. While we like the concept of two-factor authentication, we are still wondering if Rublon is the best tool to use for that purpose.

Plugin ok, BUT you need to pay if you want more than 1 login.. Also, the first screen still shows wp login form for everyone…then the 2 factor after that still giving people a chance to attempt login..

After installing I never received the verification emails allowing me to login! Had to manually remove the plugin through FTP.
Avoid this plugin!
The whole concept of this plugin relies on email that fails to send!

This plugin is only free if you have a single WordPress user on the intended site; a website that uses the Rublon plugin with more than one user will have no protection unless they “upgrade”. Upgrading is a link to email Rublon, no published information on plugin price.

I’ve been under a constant attack on one of my sites, I have no idea why the person is targeting my site but anyway I have WordFence and Sucuri installed.
I felt like I needed another layer of protection so I installed Rublon.
The two-factor authentication was super simple to setup and allows me to sleep better knowing my site is secure.
Thanks for an amazing plugin. I recommend everyone install this plugin for security.
Do yourself a favor and eliminate the risk of someone hacking into your site.
Thanks,
Mike

I have Rublon installed on all my sites. It works perfectly as an extra security measure.

Can’t even get a price, Just want me to install it and then give them my e-mail to their sales staff. I don’t think so. Why we let this crap in the repository? GTFO.

Rublon is a great alternative for SMS-based 2FA – faster (you are not waiting for SMS delivery) and simple (just scan the QR code instead of typing numbers).

This plugin secures my site cleverly. If this impressed Sucuri, then it impresses me!

The plugin authors try to minimize the fact that this plugin ONLY SUPPORTS ONE PERSON.
If you want to use this in its full capacity IT COSTS MONEY.
This is only mentioned in the very last paragraph on the plugin description page. There’s no mention of pricing anywhere on the main site. This is not a free plugin. Look elsewhere.
I don’t have an issue with paying money for plugins, especially high quality ones. But when this is advertised as a free solution, I have some serious misgivings about trusting the authors with anything. I’d urge those reading this review to do the same.

What a joke, sells so many of us on one concept without all kinds of fees. THEN sends one tiny, somewhat confusing e-mail essentially killing all but one user unless you pay the ransom. Isn’t that extortion?
I love how they’ve redone their site to make this look so good, but they managed to lie and claim 5 stars while it dwindles down to 4.5 and on the way to the basement. Isn’t that even more false advertising?
It’s too bad, the app helped send overseas hacks packing when combined with OTP and other software to form a solid block. But that was without the $99+ a year cost. If I wanted professional security, I’d buy professional security software. At least we’d have gotten some warning notices this was forthcoming and not an e-mail bomb after it happened…
But how do you trust an untrustworthy App Author?
[HINT: you don’t.]

Another example of some WordPress developers’ totally unethical business practices.
Offer the plugin for free. Get tens of thousands of users. Then make the free plugin almost totally useless and require the tens of thousands of people who’re already relying on the security features to pay to continue to get the same features they already had.

My first impression was: “awesome!” and it’s a great tool if it works on your site. On my multisite however, I did not manage to get it going on more than one site per user.
Because it’s an awesome tool I spent a lot of time trying to solve this and was determined enough to even write a tutorial about it, while waiting for a reply. I never finished it though.
My enthusiasm cooled down when receiving this Rublon newsletter stating they would only protect one admin account per site. Anything more would cost $99/site/year.
I can understand the decision, but currently you can read in the description:
What Does Rublon Cost?
Nothing! The basic Rublon plugin is free and always will be. Premium features like custom branding are available through our paid Business Plan.
And in the FAQ:
How can I protect my account with Rublon?
Simply install the Rublon for WordPress plugin and activate it. After activation, all accounts have instant protection with email-based, two-factor authentication.
I would consider to pay $99/y for my multisite, but Rublon confirmed through email:
You’d require a seperate license for each website, but you can purchase bulk licenses for 100 or more websites.
That is not an option for me. So, basically, they break their word and by doing so they wasted my time.
Still, if you have a WordPress site with only one admin, or if the business edition is an option for you, Rublon is a great plugin. I however do recommend to take a look at the Simple Security Firewall as well. I’m currently also struggling to get it going on my multisite, but it does work well on the main site, so it should go smooth on single installs.

Recently launched a new site and i was looking into enforcing 2 factor authentication on my site and i found Rublon which leaves all the rest in the dust. It is easy to set up it took me less than 5 minutes to install and setup the mobile application. The thing that makes Rublon better is that it’s got this nextgen kinda way of logging in in which the plugin displays an animated process of the login procedure with easy to follow steps on how to get access to the site you’re logging into with Rublon. Everything is detailed and the support is superb! They reply fast. If you are looking for a 2 factor authentication plugin which will keep your site away from abusive bots and keep your visitors safe look into no other plugin than Rublon! You’ll thank me later.

After struggling with the setup (due to server mis configuration), but with very good support from Rublon I managed to get the plugin working in no time.
Installed now on 30+ projects, works like a charm.
Evaluating premium features at the moment!

I was looking for a 2FA that does not require codes to enter every time a team member has to login to multiple website we have.
Rublon was the solution that delivered what we wanted. It’s very easy and quick to setup. No SMS, phone apps or calls required. It’s email based.
If you’ve put a device in your trusted devices then you won’t need to authenticate again and again from that device until you clear cookies.
The support is excellent. We had some problem on some of our websites and they fixed the thing quickly.
Very happy with the decision to go with Rublon.

Rublon has never let me down so far. It’s good to know my sites are protected. Only gripe is that I can’t disable it per user.

This could FINALLY be it, folks. A security solution that ACTUALLY prevents the ongoing monotony of guessing who got in and how. Even with multiple layers of protection I have still be deflowered on occasion … and it hurts. My experience with Rublon is so far limited, but has been very graceful and holds the most promise of all security layers I have tried.
