plugin that works with excellent support
I have tired multiple subscription plugins as alternative to official WC Subscription plugin. These plugins either did not work properly or support was poor, or both. Finally stumbled upon Flexible Subscriptions. I have to say it’s plugin what that works and support is great. I use it with WooCommerce PayPal Payments. I’d welcome paid PRO version with WC emails (subscription created, cancelled, etc..) , option to cancel subscription immediately, priority support. Paid add-ons – I do not need any of them. Nevertheless I purchased one to support this plugin and get paid support.I think it would be good to have free version and PRO version with all paid add-ons/extra features included. This is how all other subscription plugins have it and I think it makes sense. Many thanks and keep up a good work.

Excellent plugin and amazing support!
I’ve never written a review for a Wordpress plugin before. However, after my experience with wpdesk, I felt like it was the least I can do. First, the plugin itself works as expected. Unlike all the many other subscription plugins, it actually handles subscriptions in a way that meets the needs of my specific use-case. Configuration of subscription products in Woocommerce was intuitive and simple. Again, unlike many other plugins it did not over-complicate the process. I have not had any issues at all with the functionality and performance of the plugin. However, what really compelled me to take the time to write this review is the amazingly impressive quality of support I received for an issue I did have. Short version: when using Woocommerce + Easy Payments PayPal gateway + Flexible Subscriptions, there is an issue that prevents any of the payment methods from displaying on the checkout page. I reached out to Flexible Subscriptions support to see if they could help fix the issue. They quickly found out the cause as well as a short-fix work-around. The quick fix was to use the classic woo commerce checkout page rather than the newer block-based checkout page. The cause is that while the payment methods are registering correctly in the API, the UI doesn’t display them in the block based template (and it appears that is a fix required by the Easy Payments team). Sidenote: I think the Easy Payments PayPal Gateway plugin is by far the easiest and best plugin to integrate PayPal for Woocommerce. It’s reliable and I don’t have every other transaction failing (like it does with the official PayPal plugin). Not only did the support at Flexible Subscriptions provide an immediate solution for me (using the free version), but they pro-actively reached out to the team at Easy Payments to work on better compatibility. THEN they followed up with me 3 weeks later just to keep me in the loop. I’m thoroughly impressed with wpdesk. I can’t speak to anyone else’s experience with them, but my experience has been great. I have no affiliations with wpdesk other than being a happy user of the free version of their plugin.

Not production ready yet
Stumbled over this subscription plugin and tested it as I’m looking for a way to offer monthly and annual subscriptions for a service.As this plugin even offers variations for subscription products, I thought it would be the solution. Yet, it turned out the variations do not work as I thought they would. Also, adding variations manually did not work at all.Furthermore, the checkout page gets messed up, though it looks awful (twenty-twenty-one theme). It seems to work fine in the latest twenty-twenty-five theme.On top of it, the plugin seems to conflict with the plugin I use for legal checkboxes on the checkout page.From my point of view, the plugin is not production ready yet. Anyway, it would be great if it works. As it is simple and exactly what I was looking for. I keep it installed on my test website to see how it’s evolving.
