What merchants praise

We switched to Simple Alerts after using the other alerts app after about 3 years since the support become non-existent after a bit, which is unfortunate but we needed something that worked. After switching to Simple Alerts the dev team has been amazing with their support and additions to the app itself. We're glad we switched because now everything is secure and works the way it should. If you're using the other app, just switch, you won't regret it. -Adding to it as of 12/18, I STILL love the support for this and the alert has worked 100% of the time.

The review-count trajectory is the diff between today’s snapshot and snapshots from 7 and 28 days ago. Topic counts and sentiment come from the review corpus, topic-tagged with Claude. Install footprint is observed via Ongoing.AI’s tech-detection pass against actively-tracked Shopify storefronts. Catalog position is computed at snapshot time against every active app sharing the primary category. Snapshot generated .
