neo WP - Sasha Simonova - Avonomis

The neoPro plugin is my multitool for media in WordPress! Whether renaming, replacing, duplicating or optimizing images — it's all included. You can even draw and animate. And all of this with a single plugin. No more plugin chaos, no compatibility issues. The features are perfectly coordinated. I especially like that I can enable exactly the features I need in the neo Manager.

There are only a few truly outstanding WordPress plugins and neoPro is clearly one of them. The modern design looks professional and is thought through down to the last detail. The plugin integrates seamlessly into WordPress. In the media library, images can be renamed or replaced with just one click. Drawings can even be edited directly in the page builder. Amazing how elegant media management in WordPress can be.

The neoPro package not only speeds up my website but also my entire workflow. For example, images can be dragged and dropped directly into the media library and are uploaded in parallel at full bandwidth. When renaming, the renamer immediately finds all references to the image and updates them automatically. The backend stays fast and the frontend is massively accelerated by neo Optimize, especially for large images.

Hi, psst... I snuck in here quietly to tell you a little secret: of course we use our own baby neo WP for the graphics on this website. We are enthusiastic about it ourselves and developed it with great care so that it works perfectly not only for us but also for you. So sit back and enjoy the full power of our plugin. Have fun — we're sure you'll love it as much as we do!

Small confession: I'm one of the minds behind neo WP – the plugin universe around media management in WordPress. And yes, I use it myself. Every. Single. Day. Whether renaming, replacing, duplicating, optimizing, lazy-loading, animating, drawing images or even stop-motion with SVGs – the whole package (neoUniverse) is not only modular, but also works together as seamlessly as I always wanted. We put a lot of love and a bit (okay, quite a lot) of nerdy attention to detail into it. So if you like a lean, well-thought-out media setup that doesn't overwhelm you with 100 menu items but just works – take a look. Or the whole universe. I trust it with my own projects – and maybe soon you will too.

I'm generally cautious with renaming plugins because they've often broken references and PHP arrays in the database for me. That's why I tested neo Rename thoroughly on a staging site. What can I say? I couldn't break neo Rename. The plugin simply detects every image reference hidden somewhere in the database. Whether in post content, an ACF field or your own JS code. I especially find it useful that the plugin shows me where the image is used before renaming. That gives me extra confidence.

I was able to use neo Rename in the beta test. It is simply reliable. As a professional photographer I use many images and update them regularly on my website. With neo Rename I keep titles and alt tags consistent. This plugin saves me a lot of time.

As a beta tester I was able to test neo Optimize extensively. What is very well solved in neo Optimize is that all images and the entire content folder remain untouched. The plugin creates thumbnails in a separate folder and leaves the database 100% unchanged. I've never seen such a solution in any other media optimize plugin so far.

I discovered neo Draw while looking for a Paint for WordPress and found exactly that. A very intuitive and powerful drawing tool. Unlike Paint, neo Draw has well-chosen color palettes. 😉 I particularly like the consistent drawing look with the matching font. The whole design looks very cohesive and well thought out. The integrated icon library includes emojis, a wide selection of icons and even animated GIFs. You can also add your own images, GIFs and icons to the drawings. Thanks for the valuable tool!

During the development phase I had the opportunity to test neo Draw more closely. The plugin is super-fast and perfectly integrated into WordPress. Editing the drawings is possible directly in the PageBuilder. The raw data is embedded in the image file and can be transferred to another domain simply by downloading the file. It is remarkable that the drawings are still displayed even if the plugin is deactivated. Very nice! Everything is of very high quality and reliable. The developer also answers technical questions immediately. I am very satisfied.
