HTML5 Audio Player Pro Compatibility Issue Resolved
Excellent support. We discovered an AJAX compatibility issue between HTML5 Audio Player Pro and FacetWP. Support responded quickly, released an update (v2.7.7), and provided a clean, officially supported JavaScript solution. The issue was resolved completely. Great communication and excellent technical support. We really rely on HTML5 Audio Player Pro to give us the best UX to potential clients. For a business that relies on audio file demonstration, this first impression is critical.

Great Player, Easy Set-up
We were looking for a player which gave us the ability to download. The HTML5 Audio Player gave us that plus the ability to change all the settings. Installation was nothing more than downloading the plugin, activating it and clicking on a setting in the plugin to swap out the current player with the HTML5 Audio Player
