    I have been in IT Management, Development, and Consulting for over 40 years in 7 states. I was a Federal Manager of 16 years. I am very reserved regarding leaving reviews. So, with that said, this is an outstanding product. I’ve use the paid version for 2 years now on 3 sites. The number of incidents and issues experienced are zero. However, with best practices, I do make full backups prior to manually selecting some potential deletions of data or tables. I am comfortable with it’s manually tapping the auto-clean process without a manual backup; however, I do have automatic periodic backups scheduled just the same. It’s empowered me to manually select and delete dozens of tables over these 2 years and literally thousands of records. There is a ton of “crap” (tech term for unknowns) left behind from uninstalled plugins that claim to remove data upon deletion. Some remove the data but leave their empty records, tables, and auto-running options behind. Also, I appreciate the ability to sort by any unknown tables or partial names. I love the feature of size sorting any actively running options that consume resources for investigation. Use this powerful plugin responsibly. I’ve found it’s always needed after changing SEO plugins, which involves about 8-12% of old stored data, tables, or empty recordsets behind. I highly recommend it for those who are reasonably skilled and seeking an improvement in performance.
