Sure, free for 15 days, but there is no free plans for individuals after the trial. This extention is made for companies, not individuals.

I love having all my clients’ websites in one place with all WP & security management settings accessible. This WordPress Site Management system is all around awesome, and their support is better than any I’ve experienced. If I have a problem or a question, they are quick and thorough in responding and seeing any issue resolved.

Running a number of sites with associated staging sites, this management system just works. Keeps all the sites up to date with one logon and interface. Copes with sites with dodgy plugins that don’t play well – love the Shield Central profiles, makes sorting this so easy – and the support is quick and courteous, even when the problem is another plugin not doing what it should.

After good a bit of research into WordPress Security Software, I decided to check out take the 14-day free trial of iControlWP. I opted for the ‘Agency Pro’ package as it includes all the add ons and the daily backups. I am really impressed with this plugin and am only sorry that I didn’t start using it earlier.
The installation was really very easy and the plugin has already helped us close a lot of vulnerabilities (many of which we weren’t aware of) and add additional layers of security to our client websites.
In a very short space of time, we’ve managed to streamline our WordPress maintenance and greatly simplify our workflow and increase our security.

By far the BEST admin kit for administering multiple wordpress sites along with their security product called Shield. It’s a one-stop resource to cover all and administer ALL your wordpress sites from one incredible dashboard. I highly recommend to anyone. Also the customer support is excellent.

I’ve been using this system for a little while now with around 35 sites. I found the backup side of system works more reliably than some of the other backup plugins I’ve tried in the past (backupbuddy / duplicator etc.) – you never know how good a backup system is until you try to restore and this system has not let me down.
When it comes to offering maintenance to your clients it’s very affordable to be able to pick and choose which features you need.
It’s definitely worth trying out the free 30 day trial and see how you get on.

As my title states, the only regret I have is that I didn’t find this plugin earlier! What a time saver for a small company like mine. We manage multiple websites as a webmaster for small companies and I used to do all the updates and backups manually. iControlWP enables me to backup my clients continuously and keep up with updates in a timely manner all with a White Label support interface. And support is phenomenal! Thank you!

Not only is the product amazing, but I am blown away by the customer service and attention to detail. I had the smallest of issues. Real small. I was treated like some king who was spending thousands of dollars with them. We are also talking instant response at ANY hour of the day (once at 3 am and once at 5am).. Unreal. I don’t often write reviews, but not only is the product flawless, these are guys that you can stand behind and know they have your backs. I sound fake because I am that thrilled..

I used iControlWP for nearly two years to manage about 10 websites. What I found most useful was being able to see at a glance if any plugins, themes or WP core needed to be updated and to be able to update those on multiple sites with one click. Support requests were always dealt with quickly and informatively. All in all a great premium WP plugin.

I manage over 20 wordpress based instances with this tool and my life is so much better. Running automatic updates, regular backup services, and logging in once make management of these sites much easier. Highly recommend using this product if you’re managing more than one or two wordpress sites.

This Plugin makes the management of multiple sites so much easier!
iControlWP gives me a great overview over my clients sites. It has a great user interface, allowing me to easily update WordPress/plugins/themes on multiple sites in one step.
It’s even better in combination with shield.
I’m using iControlWP for about 15 months now, and during this time it got even better (Shield Central, …)
The support is outstanding!

I’ve been using iControlWP and WorpDrive for over a year and find it to be a good tool for my client’s web maintenance.

I use iControl on all my sites. It′s a great help to keep track of update needs and status with a single glimpse. I also love the feature of being able to install one Plugin on all sites at once. In case of a support situation, so far assistence and solutions happenend within 1 or 2 hours!
The pricing seems very reasonable for the peace of mind I get in order to maintain my cleints sites. Thumbs up for iControl!!!
Rating: 5 stars
Early this year, I decided to test several reputed WP management tools for managing a dozen WP websites. iControl WP was not my first choice: other services looked more attractive initially, or were praised in many reviews. But testing mainly three different tools side by side during two weeks, and moving domains from one to another, soon convinced my that iControl WP was actually the most convincing solution. It would not fail updating plugins, even paid ones, in contrast with some other tools. And if this happens by chance, the guys with iControl WP are willing to fix it in order to make it work.
Moreover, support is amazing: one has the feeling of interacting with support on a very personal basis, and no question is left unanswered. Really, they are caring for their customers.
Finally, one’s plan can be quite well customized according to one’s needs. I have now been a customer for three months, and I have no complaint: I intend to continue with iControl WP. I feel that I can trust them.

I’m using it on a bunch of personal sites and client sites. I have the backup enabled on most of the sites. Whenever I do something stupid or some update “kills” the site I’m glad to know I can just resurrect it. Saved my bacon quite a few times. Also, any problems I have had so far Paul was able to help work it out (usually user error, ie me, not knowing what I’m doing). I have been with them for 2 years. I have seen a lot of improvement in their offerings along the years and each time they save me either time or money.

I’ve been using Icontrolwp now for about two years. Previously, I tried ManageWP but found it difficult to use, and backups failed. Icontrolwp works flawlessly, allowing the WordPress core, plugins, and themes to be updated on multiple sites with the click of a button. The user interface is intuitive and simple to navigate.
More importantly, customer service is excellent–among the best I’ve ever experienced. I highly recommend this service.

This WordPress management plugin is great and just keeps getting better. The support is phenomenal. I had a problem with plugin updates on a Sunday morning and they solved the problem almost immediately. I moved to iControlWP from ManageWP because of the cost savings, but the support and functionality are much better. I hope that my hosting provider, WP Engine, will consider adding iControlWP to their utilities. It would be a perfect fit!

I am a big fan of Shield, Custom content by Country and this plugin. All that you have to do is install them and use them according to your convenience. Not annoying ads or popaganda. Straightforward business. I love it!

iControlWP does exactly what it says, it helps you tremendously in creating, duplicating or managing all of your WordPress sites. At ProgyMedia, we have plenty of WordPress websites to manage and secure, and iControlWP’s Shield Security has been proven to be effective against malicious attacks; no website has ever been compromised. Since we are using iControlWP, we’ve never looked back.

WebPro360 has utilized iControlWP for a little over 3 months now and we could not be happier!
We introduced iControlWP’s wealth of features to our clients as a value-added selling point for full-service hosting. Our clients have expressed their appreciation by referring us more business!
With iControlWP, we’re able to maintain multiple WordPress sites with ease: WordPress core file updates, WordPress plugin updates, daily/weekly/monthly backups of clients’ complete websites and database files.
Restoring from a backup couldn’t be easier, and has already come in handy for a few clients who’s websites would have remained offline without this valuable and convenient service.
Five stars for iControlWP because we can’t give more!

This plugin is an absolute must for anyone with multiple WP installs.
The ability to see the status of all your sites on one control panel is good enough. To be able to trigger an update from the same control panel is fantastic.
The daily security scans and notifications offer great peace of mind.
They have changed their pricing for the backup (WorpDrive) and you now have unlimited storage for your backups – this was a great move and the only issue I had with the system.
I have used the restore facility a number of times when plugin / theme updates have caused issues and it has saved me hours of work with just a few clicks.
Anyone who is serious about WP development, get this plugin.

Great plugin and service. I’ve used this at two different jobs (web agencies) and it’s been super helpful while saving a bunch of time.
Service requires no extensive/technical configurations either. Its pretty sweet. Try it out for yourself!

We have been using iControlWP for some time to help manage the updates of multiple sites from one location. Makes life much easier and exactly what the system was built for.
The control panel is easy to use and their Support Team are always on hand (and quick to respond) to help resolve any issues.
I would highly recommend anyone with multiple WP sites use iControlWP to help organise the constant updates on the core, plugins and themes of WordPress.

I have been looking for a new WP manager. I am leaving ManageWP and have tested iControlWP, InfiniteWP, CMScommander.
I like iControlWP the best. Easy to use interface with robust features.
But I am not using their service because the only backup system available is their own. This is fine… it seems like a good system, but they then charge for storage (sure there is free storage to a point, but if you go over it, then they hit your for $30).
I have 30 sites and there is no way my backups are going to fit within the free storage limits. This makes their service economically impossible for me.
If they offered to backup to my own cloud (googledrive) I would pick iControlWP hands down. But being forced (and charged) to use their storage is a deal breaker.
I recommend this for small developers who don’t have a lot of clients or who have other backup options.
Meanwhile I will continue my serve for the next WP manager.

I still use a lot Shield and will go pro soon.
I didn’t begin again to use iControlWP but I will probably in the future.
Paul has done a great work with Shield.
So I decided to go back to 5 stars here also being sure he is working with the same spirit with iControlWP.
===== old review =====
Unfortunately I have to change my review.
I find the Shield & iControlWP pricing over complicated.
The solutions themselves become more and more uneasy to use.
The UI design could be improved with the “Don’t let me think” way.
I hope to have the opportunity to come back to 5 stars in the future.
===== old review =====
I have used Shield and iControlWP during the last six months.
These solutions are simple to use, easy to live with and very convenient when you have some or many customers websites to follow.
There is a great support and you don’t feel like an anonymous when you exchange emails with Paul.
So, happy to recommend Paul and his solutions! ??

We used iControlWP for about a year across a number of sites and had no problems at all.
When we did have a support question it was answered within thoroughly within less than an hour by Paul.
The only reason that we have stopped using the plugin/services is because we have moved to a new managed hosting provider, and the services that we used iControlWP for are now being taken care of by them.

My website is strictly not for profit and a hobby. But security and backup are not things that should be left to chance. I have gone from six security plugins to one. My site is running at least three times faster. Honestly these guys bend over backwards to help and they are always in development mode, fixing issues and improving the site. Give the 30 days free trial a run.

At Cloud Genius, we use iControlWP to backup lots of our clients’ websites.
It is easy to use and extremely reliable.
If there are any problems with the backups, it lets us know in a timely fashion. Normally the problem is easily resolved by us.
When we need to contact support, the response is close to instantaneous and they always come up with a solution. In a recent case, the time from reporting to resolution was under 5 minutes. Keep it up!
