The Business Challenge
Keeping the pulse of almost 300 websites, and having direct access to them on-demand is no easy task. We need a way to proactively monitor and know the status of the health of our client’s sites at a glance.
We also needed a way to quickly deploy security patches across our entire network of client sites. Only in rare cases do we delay rollouts for anything security-related, so finding a way to quick-deploy was a huge need.
How ManageWP Helped
ManageWP gives us an excellent overview of the status of all of our customer stats at a glance. Now with Orion specifically we can drill down and recognize any sites that aren’t running the latest versions of WordPress, and can put together action plans to get them updated as soon as possible. We also use ManageWP to quickly organize all the sites in our portfolio and assign batches to individual agents.
For security-related plugin or WordPress updates, ManageWP allows us to quickly roll out patches in a reliable fashion, saving us dozens of man hours on every single security patch.
What Are The Results
ManageWP has been a huge time saver for us and has improved our overall efficiency over 25%. The amount of time we save by having a global view of our client’s sites makes ManageWP a huge value to our company.
We’ve reduced the amount of time we spend deploying security patches to our customers by more than 60% using ManageWP’s bulk update tool. Not only are we saving time, we’re securing our customer websites faster than ever before.
Who would you recommend ManageWP to?
ManageWP is a fantastic tool for really anyone who manages or is responsible for more than one WordPress site. Agencies, freelancers, and University admins are a few that come to mind.
