Very useful with Excel support

Useful for cases where the data are managed from a centralized Excel file. I'll be able to collaborate on an Office 365 Sheets and publish it automatically online.

Love it!

I tested 3 different table plugins and I found WP Table Manager the easiest to use with the most advanced features. For me, the issue with the table plugins I tested, was the responsive display. Highly recommended!

Fast and helpful customer support

My question was answered in less than an hour, with a very accurate reply. I use the plugin to import data from an existing database, that is a bit tricky.
