User Testimonials
	RubberDuck	Local by WP Engine
Likelihood to Recommend	Build a showcase website quickly with intuitive themes at a very affordable price, and most importantly, achieve performance and TTFB that rivals the competition. EF Eric Fillion Président Read full review	It's great for quickly cloning an environment down from WP Engine and/or Flywheel servers but can also just be used as a way to setup local environments on your own with manual syncing. If you need to spin up local environments that are not WordPress based then this tool isn't ideal. It can be used for it but it's not design for that.

Pros	Quick loading Nice Designs Ease of use Quickness of website design Alex Marchand, Adm.a Client experience director Read full review	Easily clone installs from WP Engine to local envrionments 1 click setup of Local WordPress sites for new or existing builds Can optionally push back to WP Engine with ease Easily change PHP versions Integrates with IDE for error reporting Incentivized Mark Davoli Director, Web Development Read full review
Cons	Adding advanced functionality in design, however, I believe it would dilute the core purpose of the CMS tool. EF Eric Fillion Président Read full review	Interface for syncing files could be improved Would be nice if there was an easy way to use media from WP Engine host to save on space for larger sites 1 click login doesn't always work as expected if SSL in place. Incentivized Mark Davoli Director, Web Development Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Super easy to use the only thing that might need some improvement is the interface for syncing files. It's intuitive for push/pulling down from WP Engine and Flywheel environments but can sometimes disconnect and require re authentication. Also currently sometimes it can be difficult to tell proper account name you are pulling from bug that's a known bug that's being worked on Incentivized Mark Davoli Director, Web Development Read full review
