| Editions | Members | WPS Hide Login |
| Pros | Visual role and capability editor; Several roles per user and role cloning; Content restriction and private site mode | Moves the login page to a custom URL with no core file changes; Restores the standard login when deactivated; Supports multisite network settings |
| Cons | Role changes apply to every user who holds the role; Payments and memberships are not handled by this plugin; Add-on integrations depend on the other plugin being active | 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 |
