How Scalability Pro differs from Imagify

All plugins from Super Speedy Plugins share a SQL-first architecture and an uncompromising focus on performance — and Scalability Pro is no different. Here is what sets it apart:

Imagify optimises image file sizes, which reduces the payload delivered to the browser. Scalability Pro targets an entirely different bottleneck — the slow WooCommerce SQL queries that inflate server response times as your catalogue grows. Image optimisation and database query optimisation complement each other but solve different performance problems on different layers of the stack.

How to choose between Imagify and Scalability Pro?

Imagify is effective at reducing image payload, but if your Time to First Byte is high or your site degrades under load, image compression alone will not fix it. Scalability Pro addresses the SQL layer — the queries WooCommerce runs against your database as product count, variation count, and order volume grow.
