the plugin is adding pro links everywhere on the site. If you don't want to pay an yearly fee it's super anoying.Note: due to plugin author's comment, I revised my review from 2 to 4 stars.

When investigating reports of weird behavior from Wordpress users, being able to log in as the person to see what they're seeing when they can't articulate it well is a must. Thank you for making it easy!

This plugin solved a big problem we had for some of our clients using wooCommerce for B2B customers. Most of their customers have accounts, but phone in their orders, with Login as a User, the staff can login as the customer, create the order and complete the sale for the customer over the phone. It's also useful for the devs to test different user account permissions. We've had issue when this plugin clashing with others in the past, and the support we've received has always been helpful and informative!

Very easy to use, I've used it on several sites and it's always worked without any issues.

Very happy with this plugin. I used it to login to support custom user roles with custom profile posts created by a Toolset installation. I needed to clear cache before using. Exactly what I needed.
