Get Scalability Pro →Comparing WP Super Cache with Scalability Pro? This page breaks down the key differences and similarities so you can find the best fit for your WordPress or WooCommerce store.
Overview of WP Super Cache
WP Super Cache generates static HTML files from your dynamic WordPress blog. Once a HTML file is generated, your web server serves that file instead of processing the heavier WordPress PHP scripts, reducing server load significantly.
How Scalability Pro differs from WP Super Cache
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:
Upgrade your WordPress engine with Scalability Pro.
Lifts the limits on how big your WordPress website can be by adding key indexes to speed up slow queries, rewriting queries to be faster, and providing toggle-on-off functionality for WP stuff you don’t need which is slowing down your site.
How to choose between WP Super Cache and Scalability Pro?
If you're fed up with plugin updates slowing down your site — and wondering whether WP Super Cache's developers ever test against stores with large catalogues — it might be time for a change. Every release of Scalability Pro is performance-tested against a one-million-product WooCommerce store to guarantee sub-second response times across every page. Migration is more straightforward than you might expect, and a free trial means you can evaluate the difference on your staging server with zero risk.
What do others say about Scalability Pro?
The plugin improved category loading and page display from over 15 seconds to 2 seconds instantly. Over 250,000 products on WooCommerce. The other pages are the same, this can be seen immediately, especially when there are more products on the page
Our current WP websites have been really laggy and despite switching to more powerful servers, we kept encountering bottlenecks until we found WPI. We are currently using Super Speedy Search + Scalability Pro and it has been phenomenal with the performance improvements! Across 2 of our websites on 1 server, we are looking at 90k MAU with 6k products total. Dave has also been a great help with any bugs during the setup process – really speedy response and he sure knows what he is doing!
Great plugin and great support thank you
