My support agent (Phil) is fantastic

My support agent (Phil) is fantastic. He is quick to respond,is thorough in his solutions and knows the meaning of customer service, and it comes across in his practice of it. He is great at keeping our site secure and finding any issues. Not only is my support agent a keeper but WordFence is an exceptional product

Incredible service

Incredible service! Graham Chapman went above and beyond to fix the issues we had. This kind of service level is rare in a tech landscape where genuine customer care has become the exception rather than the rule. I cannot recommend Wordfence enough.

Incredibly Efficient and Knowledgeable Team

Wordfence truly sets the standard when it comes to security compliance expertise. I needed support for KY3P compliance with my vendors, and after working with all the usual industry players, the Wordfence team immediately understood my requirements. They provided the necessary KY3P data in under an hour—an impressive feat considering that other so-called "tier 1" security and technology vendors took multiple calls and several weeks to deliver less comprehensive information. This experience made it clear that Wordfence not only understands the complexities of compliance but also knows how to efficiently support organizations navigating stringent regulatory requirements. Their depth of knowledge and rapid response time make them a trusted partner in the security space.

WordFence, more like WordSuperForce!

Graham Chapman ROCKS!!
After migrating and updating my site domain, I ran into some snags. Graham was quick to respond and knowledgeable about how to knock out the roadblocks and get back to smooth sailing! He deserves a raise!

Wordfence by far is the best protection against attack foreign and domestic - on top of that you are notified of vulnerabilities and concerns at all times. Been using the plugin, both the free and pro versions on my client's websites for many years.

I'm very impressed by the fast reaction of the Wordfence Support Team, less than 15 mn after ticket has been opened on a sunday evening : accurate and clear instructions provided that fixed definitely the issue, despite the few infos I have posted. Once again thank you for your efficiency and fast answer.

Can't find anywhere how many websites I can use with the different subscriptions. If it's only 1 website per license then way too expensive.

Almost impossible to cancel

Almost impossible to cancel. They charged our company for 4 years after we initially stopped using their service, and requested cancellation.

A complete horror show

A complete horror show. My fifteen year old web site is gone because of Wordfence. It locked me out of my own web site. It is so complicated to unlock they made long video telling you how to unlock it and it still doesn't work. Wordfence refuses to help because I have the free version. But they gave me some steps to follow. They suggested I ask my provider to help. My host tried to follow the steps and it does not work. Wordfence refuses to help any further. I've had Wordfence for a few years now, and this is not the only problem with it, stay far far away from this company. They have no compassion for you what so ever.

Excellent Security and Service

I launched my website in 2007 and it never occurred to me that I would need so much security for a site dedicated to baseball history. There's no reason for anyone to hack it because there's no personal data contained within--we post articles and have two databases full of statistics--but hackers still wreak havoc.

Thanks to Wordfence I breathe easier and know I and my site are in good hands. I recently had someone hack into my site through a contributor's account and post several ridiculous articles that had nothing to do with baseball. A scan also showed my site had been infected with malware, but Janet at Wordfence found and deleted it. As long as I have Wordfence monitoring my website I know it's protected or will be cleaned quickly and efficiently if someone sneaks through.

Peace of mind with Wordfence

What I get from the Wordfence plugin is peace of mind - worth a great deal and yet the software isn't prohibitively expensive. I've only infrequently needed help but in those cases I've waited only a couple of hours for assistance, and have always been happy with the support.
