From Good to Really Bad – BE AWARE!
This plugin has gone from great to really horrible. For over a year now since they updated the plugin from version 2.x to version 3.x the plugin causes our home page to show only a white blank page (No posts shown, only the sidebar shows up) for any registered/login members. This issue has been reported by others on their private forum as well. So we are stuck with old, outdated software that might become incompatible with WordPress at any time and/or contain security issues. We informed the developer about the issue last year, yet they did very little to help diagnose the issue. Their ONLY support was providing a link with help on how to turn debug mode on for their software, Yet the instructions provided do not work and the regular WordPress Debug mode also doesn’t show anything relevant to the issue. They offered no farther help and to top it up, they have now closed down the support forum they have. Sorry WPFront I’m paying US dollars for your BROKEN software, you should at the very least had asked for login details to your customer’s site and check issues yourself. You are VERY lazy and deserve no more money from me or anyone else. Be aware new costumers!, WPFront will NOT support you with your issues, but will be VERY QUICK to charge you a high yearly fee to continue using their broken software. I’m actively looking for alternative plugins that actually work to replace this ASAP.
Good plugin for basic tasks
This is a good plugin for accomplishing basic tasks (that really should be default functionality in WordPress.) I needed to create a new user role that derived from the WooCommerce Customer user role and was able to do so fairly easily. A few things I’d like to see that would make this a five-star plugin: Ability to directly clone an existing role to a new one (rather than create new role, and copy capabilities from existing role) Some kind of integration of the WordPress capability documentation into the role editor – either each capability has a link to the relevant documentation section, or the documentation is brought directly into the plugin (pop up window?) Bonus: It would be nice if the plugin could somehow identify what capabilities are provided by installed plugins, and which ones are leftover from a removed plugin. It would probably make more sense for WordPress core to manage this however (again necessitating this plugin’s functionality be default.)
Promising, though not useful for multisite with a large number of subdomains
Inability to automatically sync after creating a new subdomain without permissions, and inability to generate permissions with a new subdomain creation eliminates this plugin.

Like clockwork
I’ve been using this for several years and it has worked like clockwork. No issues at all through the updates. I am a bit torn though for a new site as the new custom post and taxonomy type generation feature is pretty cool, but I’ve just made a custom plugin to create some and I prefer to keep functionality like that separate.

Work Like Charm
It saves me a lot of time in user role.
Best user role plugin available
For me this has been the most reliable and efficient user role plugin I have used (I’ve tried many). Any site that requires editing or managing multiple roles should strongly consider this. The developer is also active and responsive which IMO is a key to a quality plugin. Happily recommend to others!
