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.

An Essential Tool for Wordpress Sites
Firstly, let me say that Jetpack is a fabulous tool for all blogs. From the way that it handles spam to security and load time, it's a lifesaver all over the place. With that said, if I had to choose something to nitpick about, it would be the way that it can sometimes take over parts of your website. It's usually small things, but it can set automatic picture sizes, or override style settings, which can cost hours in hunting for resolutions. One of our mantras with wordpress websites is "When it's broken, disable Jetpack first". It's just a piece of software that thinks it knows best, and while sometimes it does - it would still be nice if it just didn't default to being in control. That complaint aside, the hours it will save you in spam filtering, image resizing and site speed optimization are worth any angst it may cause from time to time.
PROSFull of light-weight features to improve your website, not terribly expensive for the feature list, has a really great free options with tons of value.
CONSCan sometimes conflict with other plugins or themes, has a tendancy to "takeover" certain aspects of your site without your knowledge.

My all in one web Pack
It helps us to boost our website's speed performance and for a free plugin, I would say- it isn't a bad option at all.
PROSJetpack helps us to reduce load balancing and slow loading issues. The JetPack boost extension is my favorite. We use it for SEO-related tasks.It's somehow lightweight and very effective. This plugin helps us to lazy-load images, compress Html, and minify javascript files as well as CSS & SCSS.It also provides accurate Insights about the responsive nature of our websites (desktop and mobile) and automatical suggests sectors that need improvement.The plugin is easy to use and its freemium version offers lots of impressive features.
CONSThere is Nothing bad with the plugin so far.

A WordPress Essential!
Jetpack has always been a free plugin (with a paid version) that provides easy to use and understand statistics for your WordPress site. This alone makes the plugin an essential for any WordPress installation, and with the additions of other features such as social sharing, it's usefulness only increases over the years and I'd expect this trend to continue. It's light, unlike a lot of other stats or similar featured plugins, so it does not cause any slowdown to your site. In short, it's worth using even if you're only using one of its many features.
PROSEasy to use, provides a number of useful functions and does not clog/slow down your site. Its main function has always been stats tracking, but has added other useful features over the years that makes this plugin even better.
CONSRequires a WordPress.com account, features may be too simplistic for more advanced users.

JetPack is Essential for Website Security
I have been able to improve how I use my forms and advertising methods, measuring results from Jetpack. However, the greatest benefit has been the site security.
PROSWith Jetpack working in the background, I can calmly perform my marketing duties. Jetpack keeps me informed on traffic, updates, threats, and functionality of the website.
CONSSome image management programs on Jetpack may result in the absence of images or media on the pages when needed.

En términos generales, mi experiencia ha sido positiva.

Es es un plugin fácil de instalar y configurar. Así como su interfaz que es intuitiva y fácil de navegar.
PROSLo que más me gusta es su su amplia gama de funciones y herramientas. Es una gran solución integral para mejorar el rendimiento, la seguridad y las funciones de tu web en WordPress.Su optimización, la seguridad y las diversas funciones como puntos notables.
CONSAlgunas de las funciones interesantes requieren una suscripción de pago. Por ejemplo, las funciones de seguridad avanzadas, protección contra ataques DDoS y la protección contra inyección SQL. En general esto es lo que menos me ha gustado.

Great features if you can deal with some bloat
Overall, the plugin is great. If there was less bloat, it would be a perfect plugin.
PROSJetpack is a great free plugin for managing all your WordPress sites with a single mobile app. I have been using it for years almost solely for this purpose. The easy to use mobile app, easy plugin and theme updates, and simple post-writer can save tons of time, especially if you don't want top log into every one of your sites.
CONSThere is quite a lot of bloat and scripts that run on the front end with Jetpack. A lot of scripts can be taken care of with some simple code, but I almost wish they would move to breaking it into separate plugins.

Your digital checkup assistant for your website.
Being a WordPress web developer, it has made it much easier for me to install this plugin and keep me aware through my email, the health status so to speak, of each website that I have registered, as it helps me to generate web traffic reports to my clients and eventually keep track of them.
PROSThe great thing about this software is that it goes along with your website of the platform where you install it, which in this case can be WordPress, besides being free, you have like an all 1 since it includes statistics, an audit that tells you what you should change from SEO, notifications of the status of the site on the network, whether it is offline or there is a hacker attack on your account. Having this kind of alert is very helpful in taking necessary actions.
CONSIt may be that being free, the program will lead you to limited functions than having the paid plan contracted. But in reality, I feel that the accessible parts are enough if your site is not so big or does not receive so much web traffic, as a company that needs to hire a payment plan and requires premium features.

A free Wordpress plug-in for website security, performance, and maintainance!
Overall, I am very much happy with the services that I get for free from Jetpack.
PROSJetpack provides a number of features/modules for webmasters to maintain and secure their websites. I am currently using the free core version. I like Jetpack stats and analysis for my site, social sharing options, downtime monitoring, protections from malicious attacks, and many such features. Jetpack has some advanced features such as search, backup, security, etc. which webmasters can purchase for some additional bucks.
CONSI use the Jetpack stat every day. While it is certainly useful, Google Analytics provide a more accurate data and insights about website analytics.
