Omnibus — show the lowest price

62 Quality Score

Active Installs

18/30

With around 10,000 active installs and modest name recognition, the plugin sits in a respectable but narrow niche audience, earning a middling 60/30 popularity score.

Update Freshness

14/25

Updated within the last few weeks and tested against WordPress 6.8.5, the plugin is clearly maintained, though its single-developer footprint keeps the score at 67/25 rather than higher.

User Rating

12/15

A strong 84 out of 100 from 50 reviewers signals users are broadly happy with functionality and reliability, though the small sample size prevents a higher confidence rating.

Support Health

8/15

Only two total support threads with a 50 percent resolution rate indicates either very few users encounter problems or that responsive support is unproven, landing at 50/15.

WP Compatibility

11/15

Requiring PHP 8.0 and WordPress 6.0 keeps it modern, and tagging against WooCommerce and recent core versions yields a solid 75/15 compatibility score.

What It Does

Omnibus displays the lowest historical price a product has sold for within the last 30 days directly on WooCommerce product pages, satisfying the EU Omnibus Directive's transparency requirements. It works automatically by tracking price reductions and surfacing the previous lowest amount alongside the current price. The plugin handles the compliance layer so store owners do not need to maintain a separate price history log.

Who It's For

This plugin is built for WooCommerce store owners based in or selling to the EU who must comply with the Omnibus Directive's price-display rules. It fits small to mid-sized retailers running promotions, seasonal sales, or frequent discount cycles where showing the prior lowest price is mandatory. Fashion, electronics, and general multi-category shops with 10,000+ monthly visitors are the most common beneficiaries.

Who Should Skip It

Stores operating outside the EU, selling only at fixed prices, or running no discounts do not need this plugin and would gain nothing from its tracking overhead. Sites not on WooCommerce will find it does not apply since the plugin is tightly tied to WooCommerce product data.

The Bottom Line

Omnibus is a focused, well-maintained plugin that does one job, EU Omnibus price compliance, and does it at a lightweight cost. Its narrow install base and limited support history mean buyers are betting on a small developer, but the recent update cadence and high ratings suggest the bet is reasonable for anyone legally obligated to display historical lowest prices. Overall Quality Score: 66.14/100, which reflects modest reach rather than a quality problem.
