Seems great in terms of pricing model. A bit of a pain that you have to get in touch with support to ask them to remove branding, so that they get to ask you for a review. Just make it so the branding isn't there then earn reviews from more meaningful work/support, but I get why they do it.

UX is pretty good, but you can't choose which images to optimise. So the free plan is quickly made useless as it just works on all images in the store - even those which are already optimised from a previous app. Also, you can't just run it in filename mode, it has to optimise (compress) as well, which is not right for our use case.

Gorgias didn’t work for us in terms of pricing structure. It quickly became way more expensive than competitors offering a similar set of features and so we requested a cancellation of the service in September. Unfortunately that cancellation was not actioned and it wasn’t until December that we noticed Gorgias had been continuing to charge us. They refunded us once we reached out regarding this. They don’t make it easy to cancel, and you have to ‘request’ it rather than them having a simple ‘cancel button’. Clearly this setup leaves room for error.

I'm surprised to see mostly five star reviews for this app. Having previously tested out Shoplift for landing page split testing and AB Convert for price testing, I came to Intelligems hoping to find an all-in-one solution. Unfortunately, it's proven to be a major waste of my time. Here's what I wish I'd known before investing my time into this app: - The UI is complex. - To run a split test on landing pages you need to add custom code. - If you have geo-redirects for subdomains you need to create redirects for every test region. - If you want to run a price test, it's an extra $300 per month minimum (AB Convert offer this function for $50). The alternative apps out there like Shoplift & AB Convert are both cheaper and, crucially, take minimal time to setup, run and interpret. When time is your most valuable resource, this is a major factor.

Misleading to say that on the Free plan you can publish '3 Live Pages' with 'All Elements' - when in truth simple things like custom fonts are a paid feature. I only found out after investing time learning the UI and feel it's been a waste of time.

I had initially written a 5 star review after being asked to many times by the (bordering on obsequious) customer support team. Setup was fine, if rather time consuming. Once in the testing phase, I noticed a couple of bugs - social media links didn't work on what they call the 'Share Page' and on mobile view , a horizontal scroll bar was visible on the front end - a sign that an element on the page was overflowing (a sign of poor web dev). It's now been three weeks since raising the issues with support. Neither have been resolved and I was in fact told that to sort the mobile responsiveness issue, I should hire a web developer - TO FIX THEIR OWN POOR WEB DEVELOPMENT! This left me pretty flabbergasted, to say the least. I'm not a perfectionist, but we do have high standards and sloppy design like horizontal scroll on mobile and broken social links I'm afraid, fall way short.

Great customer support. However, it was no good for us as they don't allow you to change star shape from rounded to hard edges. So it has a pretty cheap look and feel to it. Perhaps good for dropshipping stores but not higher end products.

Function wise it's pretty good. Frustratingly they are quick to remind you to upgrade when you reach the limits of a plan, but they don't automatically reduce the amount you pay if your orders that month fall short of the tier you're in. Looking back at the past few months I can see that we've lined the pockets of Parcel Panel with $100s of unused credits because they told us we needed to upgrade the plan when really we didn't. -- Update: since writing my original review, the PP team reached out to refund about 1/4 of the over payments I made this year (paying for tiers that I wasn't using). They have also created a bespoke plan for me which has made the whole PP experience a lot more cost effective.

Super-easy to use, with a 'click to place' interface. I assumed it wouldn't work with our custom slide cart - but it does! We were quite picky with how we wanted the app to look on our store and the app devs went out of their way to ensure we got what we were after. For future updates, would be lovely to be able to hide the 'available rates' section. Thanks team! Thank you for posting your amazing review! It was a pleasure for us to help make the app works for your shop's specific needs and we look forward to working with you in the future.

Today I spent around 4 hours trialing all the different countdown bar apps. They ALL had issues with; sticky functionality, wouldn't offer continuous countdown, they didn't have custom CSS function, or they looked like some spammy AliExpress countdown nonsense. This app is the ONLY one that offered the functionality I needed. So glad I found it! Plus the support is faultless.

There's no simple timer option - all the designs have a spammy feel to them. If you're selling products with a price point of more than $50, in my opinion the styling of these timers are way too tacky.

The Sections are excellent value and the support team are always willing to help adjust the code as required to make the sections work perfectly to my needs. I would certainly recommend this app to anyone!

UPDATE: Looks like when the SEOAnt team manually removed their the code from my store, they also ripped out a load of the HEAD scripts, including all tracking for META Pixel. I've just now found this out and this explains why META ads have dropped in performance by 300% this past 4 days - Pixel was receiving no data! Bottom line - the cowboys at SEOAnt cost me circa $3000 in lost profits when they removed our tracking scripts. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Original Review: The single worst app experience I have had in 3 years of running Shopify stores. 1.They present you with a site speed score (in glowing red -'warning, your site is the slowest we've seen etc etc), then push you to hire their premium site speed services. Thing is, my site gets an A rating on GT Metrix. It is not a slow site. It does not need $100s spent speeding it up. 2. They charged me $59.99 within 10 minutes of installing, despite a 7 day trial period. I had to chase them to get a refund via Shopify chat and at time of writing, no refund received. 3. On uninstalling, it left some code in the store which left an ugly error on the homepage on the customer-facing front end. Looks awful and at time of writing review, they still haven't been able to remove it. Awful experience!

I'm rewriting my review for this app, having now used for around 3 months or so. There is huge potential within ReBuy, with a very pro looking smart cart with a load of bells & whistles. Unfortunately, the app has consumed a huge amount of my time in trying to work through seemingly endless bugs with implementation, the widgets, the rulesets etc with the customer support team. They are knowledgeable and polite, but it can take days to work through an issue, with their weekends, public holidays and time zone differences taken into account. Nothing has implemented smoothly and has all required additional coding to get things working. A number of the 'killer' features are only available for Shopify Plus subscribers, and there is no reflection in the pricing for those who do not have Plus and therefore cannot use these features. I'll continue using it for now - mostly because I can't face going through the removal of the app (and its theme code), and installing a competitor's version. In summary, for $250+ per month, I would expect a much smoother experience.
