The best choice for reducing plugin risk

I started using the free version of Patchstack about a year and a half ago, and upgraded to the Developer plan several months ago. I switched over from another service, and I found that Patchstack found more vulnerabilities and sent notices faster. I’m also subscribed to some security newsletters, and I’ve found they are much slower. They often report vulnerabilities days or sometimes even weeks after Patchstack does.

The free version is great, but the paid version gives me even more peace of mind. I know that my websites are protected right away, and the firewall protection means I don’t have to jump on the upgrades immediately.

Also, some vulnerabilities get reported even when the developer hasn’t fixed the plugin yet. So far, on the paid version, Patchstack reported and virtually patched all of the ones that came up on my websites. It’s nice to not have to think about removing a plugin right away, just because the developer is slow to release a fix.
