| Editions | Disable Comments | Easy HTTPS (SSL) Redirection |
| Pros | Site-wide, per post type or per post rules; Bulk delete with a preview and export before deleting; Blocks REST API and XML-RPC comment endpoints | Redirects the whole site or chosen pages to HTTPS; Scans for non-HTTPS resources and can force static files to HTTPS |
| Cons | Deleting comments is permanent once confirmed; Optional usage tracking sends data to WPInsight once opted in | Needs HTTPS to be working before enabling redirects; Certificate issuance depends on an ACME library that is not in this release |
