User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the Sucuri WordPress plugin for its ability to detect malware that other plugins miss, track suspicious activities, and provide comprehensive monitoring and protection. The plugin has helped many users maintain their websites' security with regular updates, notifications of incidents, and improved site speed. However, users have faced significant drawbacks including poor customer support, high costs for premium features, compatibility issues with some hosting services, frequent false positives, and occasional bugs that disrupt website functionality. Data retention controls are also lacking, creating compliance challenges for data privacy laws. Despite its benefits, many users suggest improvements to enhance its reliability and user support.

I’m really glad I set up this plugin because I was able to track suspicious logins and other security threats

Плагин сразу нашел вирус, который был у меня на сайте, чем очень мне помог, т.к. другие плагины его не видели. Но плагин сломал мне админку Вордпресса, я теперь по сути не могу управлять своим сайтом, т.к. кнопки в админке не работают, все плагины отображаются косо и криво (слетели CSS стили). Что мне делать, чтобы восcтановить CSS?
