User reviews

It says it's free to use, but when you create your user, your login is not accepted as valid, even if installed without any error. And the error message is cut, so no reason can be seen. Useless extension, I will delete it.

This extension would not recognize my work email as a work email address. Ugh! I never got a chance to use it because I couldn't even sign up.
