We were excited to partner with EcoCart as an eco-conscious business, but after onboarding, your widget isn’t working and we’ve received no support—emails ignored, meeting canceled last minute, scheduled a new meeting yesterday late afternoon again and it was canceled again. This is disappointing and unprofessional. We need a resolution ASAP. UPDATE: Marina finally was able to get ahold of me and apologized for the delay as they, I guess, don't have a team right now to manage live meetings so I am not sure why they gave that option on their website, but she was able to get my issue resolved! 4 stars for the way they handled the issue and delay. I hope they can improve the speed of their customer service for time sensitive issues like these.

If I could give more stars I would! This app is absolutely amazing and their support is always instant and fast to fix issues if I come up with an error or cannot figure out how to customize something on a page. Their customer service is 10/10!

Very accommodating at the beginning and very helpful with the set up of things. However, we noticed that we started to get bots attempting to make purchases one after another several times every single day with ONLY protect item in them. We took it to the Protect team asking for guidance and help, and Khoi (from protect) basically responded “just review where the bots are coming from and block their IP(s)” as if I am the expert here. Also on their app keeps saying that it is unsupported saying that the app might not work as expected as it needs to be updated by the developer. Again, we took it to them and they didn’t even address that for us. So they’re NOT even trying help or resolve any issue for us. What Khoi actually does is respond like this: “How do you know it is a bot/spam”, “ what report are you looking at to see this phantom abandoned carts”. We proceed to take the time and sent a screen recording of all his requests and he completely ignored us. Since we were not helped and were ignored by this individual. We proceeded to request guidance on how to uninstall the app so that it doesn’t create issues if we uninstall it due to the customizations that were performed and again we are being ignored and not helped. The Protect team has to take more responsibility on helping customers when issues arise. That’s your job you’re in business because of your customers, have the decency to take care of them. Hi Kirsten! I'm sorry I was unable to assist you any further and that you felt I was unable to provide you with the service you needed. As an app, the scope of what I can do is limited to our app operation and I did check things very thoroughly and found it was performing normally. For things like bot traffic, unfortunately, our app has limited access and scope. Given the limitations, I really tried to provide suggestions and guidance on 1) verifying the issue (by asking you where you look so I can look as well) and 2) a possible solution how to prevent it (by blocking them as is a common way to deal with this). I was not necessarily suggesting that you would fix it yourself as it could be something you have your developer or Shopify look at. Bot traffic such as this can occur on any website. I can only guess at how they chose your site but it is usually random. From their pattern you described, it sounds like they were attempting to test credit cards using different combinations of input. They need to spread this type of test across many merchants and different bogus customer info. My guess is that lower cost items (such as Protect) are easier to use for their tests as it won't raise as much suspicion. Thus, it was coincidental our Protect was used in their tests. I would even say it is fortunate the bots did not attempt to purchase your other items (and possibly succeed) causing you to ship them only to get a chargeback and also lose your item. As for the App updates, we verified nothing critical was at issue as we worked to make the updates at the time. So I do try to be accommodating and the only difference in your later "bad" experience is that my hands were tied so I couldn't actually do much to help due to my scope limitations. I did what I could which was to try to provide some guidance but you felt that wasn't satisfactory.

So far this app is AMAZING. I just downloaded it tonight, but the customization is perfect and the rewards options are endless. A special shoutout to Emile for her INCREDIBLE customer service helping me figure out some things, even being extra generous to go above and beyond, as well as being super relational connecting with me about our business. I'm going to see how well this goes with gaining loyalty with our customers, I have a really good feeling about it so far. :)

As a supplier this has been the easiest and most convenient app to use, it integrates perfectly with our shopify store and links our inventory in no time. We are used to deal with other drop shipping platforms that are not even close to offer a good customer service for the suppliers and willing to help with any technical difficulty. Spencer is very responsive and helpful. Thank you for offering an outstanding service. Raul Beyond Borders Collective.
