Here’s what people think of WP Rocket vs. W3 Total Cache
Easy to use, and it works!
After using W3 Total Cache and Autoptimize, using WP Rocket is a breeze! The Devs at WP Rocket are continually making the product better with each update. The settings are easy to figure out without a book of instructions.

Easiest Way to Speed Up Your Site
It simply works. I formerly used W3 Total Cache and struggled for years to keep my website below 2 second load times. Last year, I switched to WP Rocket and finally achieved a sub 1 second load times. Not sure how. I simply switched, configured my CDN, and enabled it. Freaking amazing! I love WP Rocket!
