by Firefox user 17293278, 4 years agoThis used to be a good add-on, but last year they redesigned it to be basically non-functional unless you register for their services.
It also vastly slows down browsing; for me it was adding 10-15 seconds for EVERY page load, and significantly slowing down browsing within pages. This was going on for months, which I attributed to browser updates, but after removing this specific extension the problem was immediately resolved.
You can see in older reviews that they keep claiming this was a bug that they've fixed, which is clearly not true.
Do not install this. If you still have it installed from back when it was worth using, the sooner you get rid of it the better.

- Rated 2 out of 5by PMiles, 3 months agoThis has not been updated in over a year. About 15 months. 2024 vs 2026 A lot has happened in browser technology in the last year.
I narrowed down super slow response times to this addon. I have other things and this is the only one slowing it down. From nearly instant responses to 8+ seconds. 8 seconds is a long time. I believe it was at least 30 seconds when I started trying to narrow down the issue. Yes even for a simple site.
I am switching over to Eset which offers more than simple a site review (NOT that I want WOT to offer more. Focus on the thing you CAN be good at).
I must say that I really like that with WOT you the user can also issue reviews and star ratings. Especially given that they often differ from the WOT's assessment.
If you didn't take forever to load I'd prefer you over most.
Yes, I removed a ALL extensions when testing for the poor performer. So, no, its not just a conflict between extensions. - Rated 5 out of 5by AjssPC Linux, 5 months ago
