Wicked Bride

I had tried a different ETA app and while robust and beautiful, there was one feature that was vital to my shop that customer service just couldn't get to work. It was also 3x more expensive. So I decided to give this one a shot and it was incredibly easy to set up and activate. I had one question about adding the ETA to order confirmations and the code snippet needed was quickly provided by customer service.

Ok, after getting the app set up and using it for a bit, I need to update my review with a couple things I feel others should be aware of. These things may or may not be an issue for your shop, but as a pretty small shop that makes/fulfills their items (instead of a 3rd party) - here are my issues; 1. It's not possible to use the "create new product" option in settings, I have to use the "create draft order" for any item with a price change/upgrade. Why? Because the "create new product" won't work with my shipping profiles - because the "new" product technically doesn't fall into a managed shipping profile. If you just use the General Shipping profile covering all your items and have that set up for weight/etc. this likely won't be an issue for you (I have mine set up for pricing to bundle items because some ship free with others). 2. Since my only option is the "create draft order" option I have to MANUALLY fulfill every order with a price increase. The personalization doesn't fulfill automatically when the item is fulfilled by my shipping app. AND, I couldn't put the price variant in Shopify, because when I did that, other features of the app stopped working. Again, I'm a small shop running a custom template, so while this isn't a deal breaker per se, it is a pain in the a** and it does throw off order stats. 3. For some reason, the app takes over as the sales channel when personalized items are purchased - so it's not immediately clear to me where the sale came from (data needed for advertising reasons), which again, is not ideal. 4. It turns custom packing slips into a 3-page novel (ha!) - I've been able to clean mine up some but I'm still working to reduce redundant line items. Despite these issues, it still is the most robust personalizer out there - my hope is the developers continue to make updates so while the front end is flawless, my back end won't continue to be a mess. I ended up hand-coding product options on another site I own, and while not as elegant as this app, it does work perfectly front to back, so I will give this some time to see how it effects conversions before deciding to keep it indefinitely. Again, customer service is very responsive, and if you're running a Shopify template with no upcharges to items and 3rd party fulfillment, this will likely work perfectly for your needs.

I originally posted a 5-star review here, and I think if you are looking for something relatively simple, are using one of the free Shopify templates, and need an affordable app for live previews, this still gets 5 stars. But. After a year of use and a recent site refresh, I had to find something else. This app ended up costing me more time, energy and money than it should’ve - but you know what? That’s on me. I had to find a bunch of work arounds to get it to do what I want, and hired a developer - twice - to deal with issues. Customer service is responsive; but nothing is ever the app’s fault. The most recent issue was my last straw. After days going in circles with the developers and getting the same reply I took the leap to something new.

Just an echo of what others have said; this app was fantastic when it was privately owned and developed. Since Shopify has taken it over, I've had nothing but issues. One day, without making any changes, my templates refused to print properly - thankfully a Shopify developer popped in and was able to fix whatever they had mangled. Last week, again out of nowhere, none of my product photos are printing. Code looks fine, but clearly they touched something because not even the native templates will display product images. Now I'm spending an hour arguing with a chat agent who wants me to hire a developer to fix this issue; despite the fact that I've said repeatedly this is a Shopify-supported app. Ugh. If there were another alternative, I would take it.

Easily my favorite app - tons of options that I can configure in unlimited ways to suit my different product lines, and the support team is top notch. Response is almost instant, they're kind, courteous, and incredibly helpful.

The customer service team is excellent - they respond very quickly and helped me with some installation issues. I recently downgraded from a paid plan back to the free plan - but it isn't the fault of the app (I just can't seem to get customers to leave reviews!). Should my site gain more traffic and reviews, I would definitely upgrade again!

Amazing customer service! I decided to give this a try during the free trial period, and I will definitely be keeping it once the trial is up. I had some issues during installation and the customer service team fixed all of my issues very quickly.
