Have been a long-time (5'ish years I think) user of Social Subscribe and Follow. My needs have changed over the years and the plugin always flexes to what I need. Easy to change text, colors, CTAs, etc. I can fit it in visually to anything I'm doing.
Never had a conflict with different frameworks and themes. Plays nicely with other plugins. As with all plugins, there's an occasional glitch. Daniel jumps all over bugs and provides quick support.
I heard on a podcast, “Rich people spend money to save time. Poor people spend time to save money.” Well, this plug-in not only saves time but it also saves money! (Hopefully that will make me a super successful podcaster AND rich! LOL) I can't believe I was taking the time to create vector files of the logos, make the buttons, and insert the links every.single.time, when in as easy as a 1-2-3 set up and the paste of a shortcode, I'm done! I'm definitely recommending to all podcasters (current and upcoming) in the future!
I have use Social Subscribe and Follow since its inception. Without this plugin it would have cost me a lot of money hiring a web developer to provide its functionality (And I'm sure not as eloquent). I could not conduct business nor provide simple subscription methods without SAF. The fact is, Social Subscribe and Follow contains dozens of social and podcast services to link too, it's simple to use and looks Amazing! Oh and by the way, the new version 1.2.4 ROCKS!!!!

Great product. It is very flexible. However, the documentation is horrible. If you want to customize the colors you need to do it through trial and error. Each element is controlled by a different hex. However, there is no real description that tells you what goes with what. Only a vague title that could correspond with many different elements.
Other than that I really like the plugin, and feel it is worth the investment.

Social Subscribe and follow has made my blogging and podcasting life so much easier. The design is beautiful and easy to customize. No more editing graphics and making sure they're the right size. It's easy to add them anywhere on my sites which saves me time when testing changes. It's well worth the money and it's a great time-saver.
I've been using Social Subscribe and follow for a few months now and I've only scratched the surface on ways I can use it. The iTunes subscribe button is prominently displayed in my Header, the other popular ones are featured in my side bar, and I've recently been adding the Twitter and Facebook social buttons to the bottom of posts.
What's the best thing about this plugin? Do I have to pick? I take for granted that it just plain works but I love the vector graphic icons and how they transform color when your mouse hovers over them. Beautiful!
I have always wanted icons like these and tried to do them myself several times with poor results. Daniel developed exactly what I was looking for and in an easy to use plugin! Updates come regularly and new features come often and he really listens to the community! Didn't think twice about purchasing it!
As a French podcaster, I needed social buttons for which “calls to action” are customizable and that's one great option of the plugin “Social Subscribe & Follow”.
Moreover, the buttons look great on every device (mobile, tablets, computer).
I definitely recommend that plugin.

Well we needed an easy way to share with our customers how to connect to our social media links and proudly show our RSS feeds to make it easier to subscribe. We have tried other solutions to this problem, but the ”Social Subscribe & Follow plugin” is the easiest one we have used.
Daniel (the author) even gave us some pointers on how to add a new widget area to our blog page to display our new Subscribe and follow links.
The plugin was easy to install and people have commented how cool it looks.
Thanks Daniel for producing this great plugin, our only gripe I have is that there is no Instagram icon but I understand this is coming soon.
Thanks Gary and Margaret
