First time using the app and it was very simple to use and provided great results. I had to get a hold of customer service do to my error in accidentally deleting one of my catalogs and they were most helpful in recovering the file. So far, great product!

Hi, the business owner here. Currently, the app does not seem to work very well. There are a lot of bugs and glitches such as with resizing of photos which is the builder's main purpose. The builder also lacks many basic features such as very limited ways to sort products, inability to link the table of contents to pages created, product names and prices do not automatically update which means any catalogs you have you will have to constantly update your products one by one, and so many more issues. Another key issue is if you lapse on payment they immediately lock you out and you are unable to access all the catalogs you already paid for to create I am currently waiting for a response from their customer support team and if they are able to resolve our issues we will change our star rating and update what we mention here in the review.

Conceptually a great idea, and it felt like for a while they were building something- but recently basic features have been failing consistently and even the support box bugged out. I cannot recommend this to someone at present.

I am sorry but Iam finding it not very user-friendly;y. For the cost per month, it should have some basic support, but I am unable to find that either. I just subscribed for a while year, but I would like to cancel and have a full refund. I am just not sure where or how to cancel?

Lots of function, lots of flaws. Has CSS function to style the catalog as needed but has limitations too. No autosave feature so will lose changes if page freezes which happens often when dealing with a larger catalog or if you forget like I did. More often than not, editing is slow and takes a while to make changes needed to text, layout, etc. So no quick edits or changes, expect to spend a while editing waiting for the system to catch up with you when you click on text/while making changes to text. Horribly glitchy with Chrome browser at times, which is a super common browser to use but not sure it would work any better with any other browser but shouldn't have to tho, it should work with any browser. One of the most infuriating issue I found (so far but still working on the catalog so that could easily change) is that the About page img is hard to change... I removed old img, added new img, couldn't edit text afterwards. I removed img and text and tried layering the img under the text, clicked on img option on left of screen in edit layout mode and up pops up a text layer (wtf?). No matter how hard I tried, just couldn't get that to display right without having to completely start from scratch with a new page and build up my own About page. Another infuriating issue is that the text can be changed (font, size, color, etc) but when you look at it via html mode, there exist all the settings you selecting while changing out the font, size, and other attributes. All of it there, waiting to mess up how your text is displayed when you least expect it. All of it, littered throughout the paragraph in the background, ready to make your text look like sh**. Try cleaning it up and expect the page to freeze and the task becomes almost impossible to complete. Can't use custom fonts even tho it offers the use of them because the PDF export will not include them when you download the catalog, it feels like it's a gimmick to make the app seem full of features but in actuality it's only for certain uses not all (ie: custom fonts may be visible only for the digital catalog / editing phase but not PDF versions or something to that effect) which makes this feature completely useless for me. Frustrating . . . I am only giving this app any stars because it does have a lot of features that do make this app worth it IF the developers can fix the major issues the app has but not sure those issues will ever be worked on. Me personally, I am using this until I find something better and probably will never look back ಠ_ಠ

UPDATE: I added one more star because their support has been responsive. They have fixed my issues, but I am still upset that it had to be brought to my attention from a sales lead. Needs more user testing on this app! They said the digital cart broke because they are working on the new one---but when were you going to notify your paying customers about the current one breaking??? OLDER REVIEW: Absolute garbage experience. The online print catalog is ok, but not intuitive in the slightest to update it. The digital catalog is atrocious. Some buttons just don't work, so many errors to count. It's basically the most unusable experience I've seen. Don't waste your money on this thing!

Hi, My name is Kwaku from Now In Store. I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing trouble with our app. We have already released a fix for your issues with the digital catalog buttons (you will need to do a hard refresh of your page to use this fix, see shortcuts: https://fabricdigital.co.nz/blog/how-to-hard-refresh-your-browser-and-clear-cache). As you can see we are pretty responsive to our users. Would you mind giving me more details about other problems you might have encountered at [email protected]? I'm sure everything else can be easily fixed as well.

Excellent so far, just getting started and learning how to build, but pretty efficient and easy to learn with a bit of assistance i understood the variables and how to apply myself going forward. Very helpful support.

I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 because I am still creating our store catalog. However, this app has been fairly simple to navigate and I am pleased with the part of the catalog that I have completed thus far.

Appalled at the cost which I only discovered after 2 hours working on my catalogue. $99 a month is a rip off!

This app has gotten progressively worse; it used to work but is not extremely buggy. Products routinely disappear from being added to a catalog, alignment is off, in short this does not work as advertised. Moreover, customer support is non-existent (they never use chat support, and don't return emails). RUN from this terrible app.

Hi Maho, Sorry to hear that you had trouble with our software. We had a few issues just after releasing our image compression algorithm which is why some of your product images weren't displayed properly. It has long been solved since then. Concerning customer support, our mail provider mistakenly tagged your emails as spam that's why you didn't get any reply. I can assure you that is not the case anymore. So if you want to give it another try, please let us know and we will gladly extend your trial period. Best.
