CleanTalkReviews of cleantalk.org

Cleantalk appears to work well on catching comment spam on Wordpress sites, but It doesn't appear to catch, stop or prevent any spam that is posted within the wpForo Wordpress Forum Plugin. So for that reason, I'd say avoid Cleantalk if you use WPForo on your website. If you don't use wpForo, then this AntiSpam Plugin works great.

Decent spam and security plugin. Overall their plugin and service is mediocre. Their spam plugin works great and gets top marks from me. Their malware scanner is below average as they have a lot of false positives. Their support is below par as well as they have a habit of trying to gaslight you and make baseless claims such as "that specific file is fine, but the author is known for dubious work at best". When pressed for details they go into gas light mode, until you ask them if the vendor would consider their statements slander, at which point they quickly packpeddle.

TERRIBLE. I purchased their service for THREE YEARS and it's supposed to work on three websites. Purchased another package for 1 year. Won't activate even though I have the API Keys and have pasted them into their key. UPDATE: Finally got a reply and clarification. It's been fixed, but it took a lot of back and forth. The product works quite well, but if you have an issue, you're kind of on your own. Clean Talk, a help ticket is not the same as real support. Real support to me is a phone number to an actual human. I know that's not your business model.
