More than 97% of customers are happy with WPMU DEV’s service, and it’s a great time to join them. Find out why with a 7-day free trial today!
Our database was a mess and a Bluehost tech recommended that I install Hummingbird to clean it up and optimize it. I did so and it made a big difference right from the start. So we began a free trial WPMU DEV membership to check out what else they had. By the end of the trial, I had installed a handful of their plugins on several other sites and even moved a few of them to their web servers.
Kris was amazing! He went above and beyond to help, was incredibly patient and knowledgeable and facilitated the process of migrating my site and even optimizing it for speed using Hummingbird to help me achieve a score of 96 off the bat :) Here's looking forward to working with WPMU Dev long term. Sincerely, Graham
I consistently get amazing service from WPMU DEV, any time of the day or night! They have helped fix all of my problems big and small on my site, even small css help. Today, Rupok Chowdhury helped me with setting up Hummingbird, but also helped me understand the difference between two CDN products. Thanks to the WPMU DEV. I really feel that they are part of my business' overall team!

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re loving the service and want to stick around after the trial, we’ll use the card you have on file for payment processing… you wouldn’t want to lose the services after all. But equally if you want to cancel at any time then just visit ‘My Account’, it’s super easy.
If it renews and you intended to cancel, no problem! We totally understand. Just contact us within 30 days of your first payment and we will provide a refund, no questions asked – except we’ll likely ask how we can improve to keep you around next time ;)
Yes. You can upgrade your Hummingbird Pro plan at any time and just pay the difference. If you want access to Smush Pro as well you can upgrade to the Performance Package or even better, if you want to use our full suite of plugins and site management services including live support for anything WordPress related then you can also upgrade to our full membership.
There is no lock-in at all and it’s easy to cancel anytime via your account page, no need to speak to anyone, no stress.
Yes! Of course, our cache suite is more than enough but if you already use WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, or if your Hosting provides those features, the special monitoring tools Hummingbird offers still make it worth it. To ensure compatibility, only activate overlapping features in one of the caching tools.
Yes! Hummingbird is built to take full advantage of Cloudflare features. Just plug in your API key to get started and control your Cloudflare settings via Hummingbird.

And if you’re already using a third-party CDN like Cloudflare, you can use the WPMU DEV CDN as well, just make sure that the content you serve on both does not overlap.
