What merchants praise

“This is such a great app - it does everything I want it to. But the very best thing about it is the customer service. They went above and beyond to integrate the app with my theme and to get it working perfectly on desktop and mobile. I can't recommend highly enough!”

What merchants complain about

“Terrible app. I installed it 5 days ago and sent them an email requesting to have it installed and still no one has taken the time to take care of this. I uninstalled the app and I will be looking for a better app.”
