Jetpack
The jetpack WP plugin helps our web design department to remain productive by offering our websites tremendous SEO page speed boost. It's a plugin we can't do without.
PROSJetpack (by Automattic) provides a variety of helpful solutions for its WordPress users and including which is Jetpack boost and a few others. We use it regularly to enhance the performance of our web pages and have them run better.Jetpack boost helps us to reduce excessive server requests by constantly regenerating large CSS files and compressing them into lighter ones---this helps boost our website speed Insights.Vaultpress backup & JetPack protect help us to add an extra measure of security to our websites (for data loss, web phishing, malware, etc) and client's in combination with WordFence and this really helps out.The Akismet anti-spam add-on helps us to stay safe from dangerous, annoying, unsolicited, and overwhelming comments from anonymous WordPress users. This works pretty well when associated with the VaultPress & Jetpack protect add-ons.With jetPack, we can create awesome tiled galleries, responsive carousels, and many other nice decorative features.Our marketing team strongly relies on JetPack CRM and social for a better experience. They create weekly posts ( on schedule) and utilize them for ad campaigns on Google, Bing, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedInThe plugin itself (JetPack) despite all its add-ons is lightweight and runs smoothly and the cost of using it is very low. I really recommend it
CONSNothing wrong with Jetpack apart from JetPack boost which sometimes can take a longer time to generate CSS files for a particular website.
Reasons for switching to Jetpack
One major reason why we had to switch from using these individual plugins to an all-in-one compacted plugin is because of the bounty space they occupy on our virtual servers beside this are many other reasons which are all associated with their individual behaviors.

A truly awesome (free) WP plugin!
Overall, my experience has been generally good. However, other plugins perform better in particular areas - ie. for SEO, or contact forms. But of course, the benefit of Jetpack is it's all in one.
PROSThe core plugin is free - there are options to upgrade though. The visitor engagement stats are an important part of marketing data. I like that it's a tried and tested (ie. trusted) plugin - so it's updated frequently and you can rely on its quality.
CONSIt can be a little overwhelming at first as there are SO many features. It's not always easy to find the exact thing you're looking for. Navigating it takes some getting used to.
Reasons for switching to Jetpack
Testing different plugins to see which were a better fit for my needs.

It's good but it's slow
The experience itself is good. It makes it easy to manage multiple sites at once, it makes it easy to manage your plugins and themes, to copy, migrate and backup. It also has great security and monitoring functions, with spam control in the comments. The problem is that many functions come from servers external to your site, this increases the latency, also its core is quite heavy even for local functions, it seems to drag an elephant. We didn't get a good performance in SEO analysis with it, maybe precisely because our focus was not to put a powerful server to serve the site. If you have the budget and multiple sites, it's sure to be a great solution.
PROSThe good thing about JetPack is that it is from the same root as wordpress, and it has many additional functions that the wordpress core does not have. The good thing about it is that it's a Swiss Army knife to manage a site collection.
CONSIt has improved a lot since the first time I used it, at least many functions were added, perhaps copying ideas from other plugins. But still I find it very slow, it seems something extremely heavy (painfully), it seems to connect to external servers with a lot of latency. Everything is time consuming to be done there. Dashboards are also confusing. The idea is good, but I can't consider it a good implementation. It might be better if you use your site on a cloud provider with a good budget, if there are resources left it might be worth it, but for shared hosting or with VPS with modest resources it won't do.
Reason for choosing Jetpack
As our first focus was backup and security we tried alternatives, but the alternatives were all focused on another function, not nearly all the functions of JetPack.
Reasons for switching to Jetpack
Today we have several situations: simple sites we use manual backup, complex sites or migrations we use UpdraftPlus, more expensive sites with good servers we use JetPack to manage.

Jet pack Wordpress plugin reviews-2021
It gave our website a 90%+ speed boost off after several analyses on metrixGt.com and Google page speed insights. It's an amazing tool and I highly recommend giving it a try.
PROSAfter using this plugin for more than 3 years, I renamed it " the Haward Thurston tool". My website formerly ran on a 45 percent SEO performance( which is a very poor score for any website if you ask me). After testing a few other plugins to optimize my images and videos, although they did work, the results were not that impressive. They could literally add just like a 15 to 20 percent increase in speed. With these results, I saw my chances of ever ranking in google result pages extremely low or even, almost impossible. A couple of days later on Youtube, while I continued to enquire about possible ways to get this problem solved out, I fell on a tutorial about jetpack and that's when everything changed. This plugin is totally free. what I mean is, all that you can expect as functionalities from a premium version in an SEO plugin, jetpack pact offers 55% of them in its freemium version. Trust my words-This plugin is all you need to start ranking immediately in search engines. I highly recommend you purchasing the "PREMIUM" pack to exclusively enjoy its awesome "MAGIC JET FEATURES". It takes just a minute to set it up in WordPress and immediately will start integrating its effectiveness to your website with instant results( guaranteed). Utilization is very easy since there are a few simple guides to walk you through this process. you can equally create sign-up forms and manage CRM-related tasks with this same plugin- making it an all-in-one SEO plugin.
CONSFor me, when something is good-It's okay!.. However, the free plan shows some constant ads from time to time.
Reasons for switching to Jetpack
They do work, however, are not highly effective. For example, imagify could merely increase my website's speed by 64%, and not talk about others.
