Reviews
what people actually saySchema is a structured data plugin that has garnered a deeply negative reputation among paying users, primarily due to completely unresponsive support, refund failures, and a free version stripped of meaningful features.
What people like
- +Free version is available and provides some schema markup at no cost×2
- +When updates do arrive, they have been reported to fix outstanding bugs (e.g., ACF 6 compatibility)
Common complaints
- −Support is effectively non-existent — emails, tickets, and phone calls go completely unanswered, affecting both free and premium users×12
- −Refunds are not honored despite an advertised 30-day money-back guarantee×4
- −Plugin goes long periods without updates, leaving known bugs unresolved×3
- −Free version lacks basic schema features, offering less than competing free plugins like Yoast or RankMath×3
- −Paid premium licensing is confusing or deceptive — users report being charged multiple times or finding that purchased add-ons require an additional premium upgrade×2
- −Confirmed bug: conflict with ACF 6 causes select fields to stop working
- −Long-standing breadcrumb bugs remain unfixed
- −Core functionality broken for some premium users — entered schema data is not applied correctly
