July 6, 2022 | | Updated: November 04, 2022

WordPress Jetpack is an all-in-one utility that works seamlessly to bring security, backup, performance improvements, and other functionalities to a WordPress site. WordPress has now announced a modular approach to Jetpack, allowing users to choose specific features. Jetpack, used by over 5 million users, is now available as six individual plugins. The changes are Automattic’s answer to users asking for flexibility to use specific components of Jetpack as part of a custom-built “tech stack” of plugins. Users know that different plugins may or may not work well together. The change permits merchants to choose the features they need without installing the entire suite of products. Jetpack has the advantage of multiple must-have functionalities without worrying about causing a conflict between six different plugins.
