This module is highly recommended, I'd never believed that running a shared hosting without this could be terrible until the module got disabled for a week. Even a default recommended firewall setting could block so many users' IPs. So that automatically raises customers' requests to white-list their Ips.
user @user1308
I am using this plugin for 6 months and it works flawlessly.
Jade @jade8942
We use this module extensively and it has greatly reduced the number of support calls logged with our support desk.
As always, ModulesGarden products are well supported and well coded.
Julien Turbide @jturbide
This is a most if are using CSF.
We Provide @weprovide
Great module. Saves support time. We recommend Unban Center for WHMCS
Sergey Krongold @SKGOLD
I highly recommended the Unban Center For WHMCS if you are using ConfigServer Security & Firewall (csf) on your servers. This module saves a lot of support time, compare to manually unlocking IPs.
Juan Cruz Caire @fulltech
