| Editions | Cloudflare | WPS Hide Login |
| Pros | Purges Cloudflare cache when content changes; Free plugin that works with Cloudflare's free plan; Optional APO integration for edge HTML caching | Moves the login page to a custom URL with no core file changes; Restores the standard login when deactivated; Supports multisite network settings |
| Cons | APO HTML caching costs extra beyond the free plan; Useful only when the domain already uses Cloudflare; Only useful for domains served through Cloudflare | Hiding the URL is not a substitute for login rate limiting; Forgotten login URLs lock editors out until the plugin is disabled; Maintained without guaranteed free support |
