This is in no way an effort to try to prove which plugin is better. ItemsAdder is truly a fascinating, feature-packed plugin at a very reasonable price range. The following are all my observations and in no way the complete picture of ItemsAdder. Please take my observation with a grain of salt and consult others to see which plugin fits you!
