We’ve had a tough time dealing with spam since putting up an Elementor based Contact form. oopspam worked out of the box – so well, that we blew past the 40/requests/month limit on the Free account within a day.
With oopspam you get just the options you need, no more, no less. With Cleantalk it’s a long page full of options. And honestly, I’m just looking for something that just works. oopspam has a great log right in the admin area of your website. In case of any false positive or negative, you can report it directly from the log.
It’s eliminated all spam, and even the need for Captcha. I like being able to solve my own problems, and I’ve learned a lot about spam control since installing this! Great plugin, highly recommend.
oopspam doesn't inject any JavaScript files or use any cookies on your website. It works on your server, away from the users. You get all the benefits with 0% impact on your website performance.

Based on our CleanTalk vs Cloudflare notes. Test your own site before and after to confirm the difference.
CleanTalk prices two ways: per-site licenses that start at $12/year for a single website, and an unlimited-sites plan at $27/mo. oopspam's Starter plan is $23/mo and already includes unlimited websites and 25,000 checks, so you're not counting sites or renewing licenses one by one.
| Plan | CleanTalk | oopspam |
|---|---|---|
| Single website | $12/year (1 site) | $23/mo, unlimited sites |
| Unlimited websites | $27/mo | $23/mo |
| Volume included | Depends on plan | 25,000 checks; $49/100K, $69/300K, $259/1M |
| Spam logs retained | Yes, in CleanTalk's dashboard | None by default |
Weighing CleanTalk against Akismet instead of against us? The short version: Akismet is free only for personal sites and its paid plans cover just 500–5,000 checks, while CleanTalk sells cheap per-site licenses. Neither keeps filtering inside your WordPress dashboard the way oopspam does. Read the full CleanTalk vs Akismet comparison.
