Carts Guru
The reviews for this Shopify App are mixed, with both positive and negative feedback. On the positive side, users appreciate the app's ability to send SMS messages for abandoned cart recovery and its integration of email, SMS, and Facebook Messenger in one platform. Customers also praise the customer service, describing it as responsive and helpful. However, there are several negative aspects highlighted in the reviews. Users reported experiencing technical issues, bugs, and poor customer service. Some mentioned that the app was expensive compared to similar SMS apps available. Additionally, there were complaints about being charged for outdated plans without permission and facing difficulties with campaign setups and triggers.
User beware. This company has purposefully left us on an outdated plan and upgraded our plan on that old system without our permission. We have ended up paying above 50c per text message recently. Because they have been charging us per email and not per SMS. They refuse to refund the money thus far. There are better alternatives such as Klaviyo sms. Which you can properly segment and create more advanced audiences on. Their attribution model is also misleading. I am not 100% sure how they calculate it but you should really compare it to your google analytics source / medium. As their in built attribution was 6x higher than Analytics last click. Beware.
Hi Michael, I’m sorry to hear about the negative experience you’ve had with our platform. Indeed, your plan wasn't fitting your needs and as soon as you raised the matter, we promptly moved your account to a better fit as we have different plans available. Carts Guru’s SMS technology is better than Klaviyo's and has the same segmentation possibilities. I’ll be more than happy to walk you through them. Our SMS rates are also lower than other Saas companies. Regarding the attribution model, we use the last standard in the marketing automation sector: 30 days after the reception of an SMS/opening of an email. As you are using different marketing automation platforms depending on the channel, it's perfectly normal that revenues don't match with your Google Analytics. I hope we can make you change your mind about our platform soon! Please don’t hesitate to get in contact with us at [email protected], or chat with us in the app.
I was looking for a free app that can text internationally and at first I had a hard time understanding how to create the campaigns and triggers but once I got the hang of it and got help from customer service, this app is actually very easy to use! I will definitely be using this for while to send abandoned cart SMS to visitors. Great customer service!
Hi Eden + Ash, thanks for your review and feedback! Glad to hear you're enjoying the app :)
Taking a trial run and so far it's pretty good. Email+Messenger+SMS all in one place is something I am really looking forward to. Creating email campaigns and SMS process is pretty simple and straight. Worth the shot.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a 5 star rating - it's much appreciated!
I use this app to launch my online store and i am super excited with the results. Thanks Sebastiano you made the process sooooo easy.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a 5 star rating and all the best with your new online store!
Muy buena aplicación , deseando aprovechar el máximo. Buscaba una plataforma que fuera posible enviar sms a mis contactos, además que Beatrice está siempre dispuesta a ayudarme, muy atenciosa y te soluciona los problemas en el mismo momento.
