This app was very confusing to use granted we were on the free version but I couldn't tell what exactly it was blocking. It would just show a count without any details. Maybe we were using it wrong but it was definitely not intuitive by any means.

I have used this app for a few years now and have only had 1 problem but it was due to an update, that I hadn't performed. I contacted their support team and they were on it right away. They corresponded with me and took care of everything. That doesn't happen these days so, Yes, I am very happy with this APP and Felix who was my contact.

They've been very responsive and helpful. The email form of communication takes a bit longer than chat support, but feels personal. They offer helpful suggestions.

Absolutely sound team. They helped me get our forms fully protected against bots. They truly went above and beyond to keep us happy with their app. Very grateful customer.

Excellent customer service! Julius recently updated the app for my website, and I've been using it for over a year now with great success. Julius is incredibly kind and always available to answer questions and provide explanations. Highly recommend!

Unfortunately the bot accounts have not lessened at all. Still hundreds a day. I was advised that if they have cachied my URLs there is nothing they can do. Which defeats the purpose of installing the app at all. Disappointed.

Does not protect against bot. Just download this and bot keep comming in and creating new account. Also it now rederect my self to google directly can't imagine how many client I lost while this was installed. This app start rederting me after I download an other app for spam bot. Not sure if this some how cause the problem.

We downloaded this app last week to try and fix an issue we've been having with fake spam accounts being created on our website. I has not helped at all. It doesn't even seem to be picking up all all of the accounts being created since it says that there is a total of 2 created total despite the fact that we just had another 20 fake accounts pop up all at once. I will take down this review if they help me solve the issue, but so far this app feels like a waste of time and energy.

We installed this app because we had a 'bot' attack, it was making thousands of customer accounts each day and putting fraudulent orders through. We tried many apps but this was the only one that could help. We reached out for support and they helped immediately. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you Julius.

Great app and support service. Started using Shop Protector last month due to a large number of fake accounts, seems to be working well!

When it worked, it was fine, but if it went down (which was becoming more and more frequent), customers would think they were submitting their forms to us, but would actually be taken to some off-site green screen (with fake confirmation message that we had received their messages when, in fact we actually were NOT receiving them!! They were gone to oblivion and we'd never know or see customer messages that came in when app was down.). We would not received any notification app was down, we just finally would notice it had been several hours, or over a weekend, etc and no customer messages were coming in, so we would run a test and sure enough - green screen off-site indicating to us form was down for who knows how long. Unfortunately, app functionality is beholden to their configuration, so we were held hostage for repair and restoration. Service and support were awful. No response for days, had to email owner a couple of times just to trigger a reply. Once, he tried to manipulate to negotiate a positive review. We finally had to acquire our own code IT team to disable the app and redo the forms ourselves. Shop Protector / Human Presence was our worst app experience and we cannot recommend their services.
This is not a realistic depiction of the issue. As explained previously, the app does not "go down"...the problem occurs when you create new themes and don't reprotect your forms with Shop Protector. Unfortunately, we can not make this process automatic on Shopify. Remember, if you activate a new theme you must protect that theme's forms.

Update: Not only does the app slow down my site, it threw some layouts of my sections off and completely ruined functions of some. For eg product thumbnails for Recommended products all skewed to the left, and 'Quick View' of products no longer work. Unfortunately fighting the bots versus ruining the site is just not worth it. Slows down site speed BY A LOT.. So much so that I have customers in my inbox asking why my imaged are not showing and turns out they only loaded after minutes if you get redirected after signing up on a form that was 'protected'. Checked my Gmetrix and noticed a big drop in speed as well. Disappointing. I was hoping the other poor reviews weren't right.
We take performance very seriously and we adhere modern best practices. I'm not sure how the app could significantly slow down your site. We do use a Javascript to track anonymous behavior metrics in order to perform machine learning analysis for the user session. However, that script is minified, hosted on a CDN ,and served using GZIP compression.
