User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate MainWP for its ease of use in managing multiple WordPress sites from a single, self-hosted dashboard. It saves significant time by allowing updates and monitoring from one location, which is crucial for those handling many sites. The plugin's comprehensive support and responsiveness, along with its extensions for various tasks, enhance its appeal. Additionally, the self-hosted nature maintains data privacy and offers cost savings compared to hosted alternatives. However, some users report occasional issues, such as difficulties creating folders or plugin connectivity errors. The interface for multisite networks is not recommended, and minor bugs can crop up, though support is usually quick to help.

I installed this plugin on each of the sites I manage to connect them to my self-hosted MainWP Dashboard. Now I can perform updates and monitor my sites from a single location. It saves a bunch of time and it makes management simple and easy.
