Reviews Summary

The reviews for this Shopify app highlight both positive and negative aspects. On the positive side, customers praise the app for effectively blocking fake sign-ups, bot traffic, and unwanted international traffic, thus improving the overall security of their online stores. The customer service is also highly commended for being responsive and helpful, with users mentioning quick responses and even Zoom sessions for assistance. Additionally, the IP restriction feature and the ability to block countries are noted as useful tools for enhancing site security and internal sales. However, there are some negative points raised in the reviews. Some users mention that the app needs to be reset frequently to prevent unwanted traffic, which can be inconvenient. There are also complaints about the app's functionality, such as difficulties in saving blocked countries, limitations on the number of countries that can be blocked, and issues with app deletion leaving error messages on the front end. Despite these drawbacks, the majority of reviewers still recommend the app for its security benefits and helpful customer support.

this app is by far the best, I was getting over 100 email fake sign ups from bots from overseas, messed up my customer database with fake accounts, and exceeded my mailerlite email subscriber limit which ended up with me spending money unnecessary. I only ship to UK post codes so it made sense to have a firewall to block international countries and since then my fake bot account sign ups and fake traffic as now stopped. Customer service is a defo 10 out of 10!!

I've been using this app for approx. 3 weeks now, mainly to stop the amount of Nigerian SEO traffic that was contacting me via my website. It does work at preventing a good majority of that traffic however it seems I need to reset the app at least once a day or the unwanted traffic starts again. Would have given it 5 stars had it worked seamlessly. Please can this glitch be fixed?

Great customer support. We showed a lot of visits from a country we don't sell to and all the visits were less than a second long with zero conversions. These sessions were messing up our Shopify conversion analytics so we knew right away it was some kind of bot or an attack. This app was able to block the listed countries within minutes. Support was great and I was able to get on a Zoom session with Ananya to go over all the options available. I recommend this app 100%
