## Review summary

Users generally praise the app for its intuitive design, cross-network wake/shutdown, and strong remote capabilities, along with responsive support and multi-device value. However, reliability is reported as inconsistent over time, and pricing/subscription concerns are common. Setup friction from external companion apps, plus occasional connectivity and hardware-specific reliability issues, are frequent negatives. Overall, it’s a solid tool with caveats around consistency, cost, and setup requirements.

### Pros

- Intuitive interface with well-honed functionality that’s easy to set up.
- Works across LAN and Internet with minimal firewall/router tweaks.
- Remote wake/shutdown capabilities save time and trips to the office.
- Feature-rich with multi-device support and ongoing updates/value on premium.
- Responsive developer support that helps resolve issues quickly.

### Cons

- Reliability is inconsistent, with reports of it working well at first but failing for weeks or more.
- Pricing and the subscription model can feel like a money grab or overpriced to some users.
- Requires external companion apps and non-store software (Mac app needing Java; Windows installer not signed) adding setup friction.
- Initial Wi-Fi connectivity can be finicky, forcing users to rely on alternatives like QR codes.
- Some devices (e.g., certain Macs) may not wake reliably, indicating mixed hardware compatibility.
