Denver (the dude behind CGC) gets the job done! Literally just that, no need to add anything else. Stable, working well, quickly updated if something comes up (I only recall one such situation and even then, it was caused by Apple/FCPX).

Definitely recommended!

First, a note: there's a weird sudden spike of "good" reviews within a short period of time after years of 'not so great' reviews. I guess SiteJabber didn't get ahold of this fake review spam yet but one can imagine how legitimate those recent reviews are.

As for their products: quality is terrible. They may in some cases look decent, they do look cheaper but the issue is that stability does not exist. Some worked yesterday and suddenly poof - gone (either crashing FCPX and sometimes even corrupting the project they were used in) whereas others didn't work at all (just crashing).
The funniest part are the mails that they've sent recently:
9 October 2019 - "There are several issues (...) we are are working around the clock to resolve these issues (...) We recommend holding off until our team has heard from Apple & solved all of the bugs that have popped up. ;)"
6 November 2019 - "Attention: 99% of products have been updated for Catalina."

It took them a MONTH to make plugins work and not even all of them (quite a few still crash).

What I really regret is not looking for more opinions about them BEFORE pressing "Proceed to checkout":(

Stay away if you value your money, time and nerves.

Never had any big probs with their stuff (the only bugs that I noticed were caused by known macOS problems). Great support too (never encountered any other company whose CS would send custom-made video tutorial for a custom modification that I wanted to try).

Storslått!
