This app was an absolute lifesaver for my business. Very useful if you are subscribed to their paid plan. The FAQs, Product Tabs, and Live Chat feature is worth every penny!
Hi Ecopify! Thank you very much for the appreciation of our app! Our team is glad that our app meets your needs, and we'll try our best to become better every day :) Warm regards, HelpCenter team

Alright alright hear me out - there is a lot of frustration here about how they handled the transition to the new (paid) subscription plans. I was frustrated too when suddenly my 5 FAQ articels were deleted, just because I didn't select any plan in time. BUT the Helpcenter guys listened to all the negative feedback and restored every FAQ article. The support team was very helpful and there was compensation for the inconveniences. The new subscription plans are fair in my opinion. The App is easy to use and has been updated with new features and an easy interface. Honestly if it weren't for that bumby transition phase, I think the App would have close to 5,0 stars.
Hi Mix-Ready team! Thank you very much for such feedback. It means alot for us! Feel free to contact us if you have any issues of difficulties with the app! Best regards HelpCenter team

It was free to use at first, and I thought it worked well, but later it was charged, which I thought was unreasonable. I used a lot of information and content on the FAQ function provided by you, but suddenly changed it to charge, which is obviously unreasonable. Should be later to use the user charge, the old user does not charge. Now I bought a topic that provides FAQ functionality, and now I have to spend a lot of time migrating data.
Hi AEYEE team. We're very sorry to read about the bad experience with our app. Please let us note that we've been informing our customers about the changes in the HelpCenter Free plan since the beginning of December 2022. And starting from January 16 the limitations for the Free plan were applied. None of the information was deleted - you can go to the HelpCenter app and review the FAQ section - some articles are just inactive (because only 5 active articles are available on Free plan). It's possible to activate them all with any other plan rather than Free. If you'll have any question or require any kind of assistance you can always contact our support service - it's available 24/7. Kind regards, HelpCenter team

Save time on installing other FAQ apps, only to delete them later for being difficult or confusing to use - just install HelpCentre and know that you won't be disappointed.

We’re glad to hear that you’ve been happy with HelpCenter and we look forward to continuing to deliver value and results in the future. Best regards, HelpCenter Team

In recent days, we have been unable to receive messages from customers via the "Contact Us" page. After testing, we can't find the customer's message in the mailbox, please tell us what is the reason? This has taken a toll on us. I try to set up the mailbox in the background, and every time I set it up, I can only receive the first message. Then, the background automatically restores the previous mailbox
Hello Creabest Team! Please accept our sincere apologies for the issue occurred. We'd like to investigate and fix this case, however as the app is already uninstalled we are limited in a help. That would be great if you could give us a second chance to sort this case out. Please check the emails that have been sent to [email protected]. We'll be happy to do our best helping you. Looking forward to your reply! Best regards, Helpcenter Team

Been using for many years... agree with others... we had a free forever plan for just 30 faq's... so they disable your faq's without notice and forcing you to upgrade to paid plan... sorry, but not a great way to do business, espcially with original users... will be deleting now
Hi FSWERKS! First of all, we can't help but mention that we are terribly sorry to learn that we have let you down. Your constructive criticism is fair and it will allow us the opportunity to improve and do better. We sincerely appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention and to the attention of other customers. We are always looking for ways to improve. Let us notice, please, that during the last week our dev team had been working hard to bring the missing FAQ data back to our customers' stores. We’d like to inform you that this process has been completed by now and your FAQ articles should be brought back to your store. You can contact our support team to receive all the information regarding the missing data back! Please, allow us another opportunity to show you a more enjoyable and pleasant experience. We truly value your business! In case there’s anything else we can assist you with-don’t hesitate to reach out to us further! Best regards, HelpCenter team

Horrendous way of forcing existing customers (onboarded since 2017) to upgrade to a paid plan. No notifications were sent to inform that free plans will be phased out. As a result, we just found out that our content was removed from the widget without our permission. We also lost our access to our existing content for migration unless we pay to upgrade. The high-handed and mercenary approach left a really bad taste in our mouth. We have a few web stores subscribed to their paid plans as they were launched recently. It's a no brainer - we are going to take the business elsewhere.
Hi Good Dog People™! Our team totally agrees that the situation is unacceptable. We ‘d like you to know that this is not the norm for us at the HelpCenter app. This isolated issue should have never happened. During the previous week our dev team had been working hard to bring the missing FAQ data back to your store. Finally, this process has been completed by now and your FAQ articles should be brought back to your store. Just contact our support team to learn the details regarding the missing data back! We are very sorry once again that you were let down. We wish you all the best and hope that this situation will not affect your decision to cooperate with us in the future. We value our customers and stand behind our work and would like the opportunity to make things right for you. We look forward to hearing back from you! All the best, HelpCenter team

DO NOT PAY FOR THIS APP. AVOID - like everyone else is saying, they have deleted all the data that was on the FAQ page due to a change of plan (from free to paid). There was NO notice that the data would be deleted and they are not doing anything to recover the data. Given that you have at no point mentioned the content would be deleted if you don’t upgrade I assume this was a mistake on your end and that this shouldn’t have happened. In which case what you should do is notify every store owner who didn’t upgrade about this and apologise for your mistake. I’m sure there are hundreds of store owners right now who have no idea that their FAQ page is missing (it’s not a page we check regularly!) and your actions/mistakes are hurting their business. Notify them ASAP otherwise I am certain each and every one of them will leave you one star when they realise you deleted their FAQ sections. Just to clarify - My issue is not that I now have to pay to upgrade. We hold our hand up, we missed your emails on having to pay. Again, the fee is not an issue. Our issue is that you have deleted all of our data!
Hi TheBlockZone! Our team is really sorry to hear about your experience and that you were let down by our app. We sincerely regret that this trouble made you doubt the quality of our application and service in general. We try to do our best to improve our customers' experience! We take this issue very seriously and have taken steps to ensure this doesn't happen again. We’d like to inform you that the restoring missing FAQ data process has been completed. At this stage your FAQ content should be brought back to your store. Our dev team has been working on this during the last week. You can contact us to receive all the information regarding the missing FAQ data of your store! Our team is available 24/7 for any emergency or urgent needs, but we’re also aware of the need for a personal touch when it comes to our customers. Waiting for feedback from your end. Warm regards, HelpCenter team

NEVER USE OR PAY FOR THIS APP! We had the worst experiance with this app. The app is slowing down the processes. The support was not helpful. The best thing was: They delete your content on FAQ pages. Never ever again.
Hi 82NC! We apologize for the issue in our recent update which resulted in the loss of some customers' content in their shops. This was an unfortunate oversight on our part and we’ve taken all measures to ensure it does not happen again. We want to assure you that we value your feedback and strive to provide the best possible service! Right now the content is restored but deactivated due to the Free plan limitations. Please contact our support team for the information regarding restored data. Thank you again for your feedback, we have drawn the appropriate conclusions and will not allow such oversights on our part in the future. We hope our cooperation with you will continue and bring you only positive experience. Warm regards, HelpCenter team

UPDATE #2: HelpCenter was able to restore the original data which luckily we didn't have to rely on because of WayBack Machine, but at least they fixed it. Prior to this issue, the App was great and we had never had an issue, but this whole plan transition experience has made us a little wary of future decisions they might make. I've brought the review back up to 4 stars in the meantime. UPDATE #1: Our Customer Support manager had a brainwave and decided to check WayBack machine. LUCKILY, our website has been crawled back in December and we were able to scrape the FAQ page from their backup. We were able to rebuild the page now but this doesn't excuse the developers action on this and many stores won't be so lucky, so the review stands. ORIGINAL: BEWARE! They just erased my ENTIRE Help / FAQ page. They are claiming that they have been sending emails about upgrading to their new plan tiers. I found ONE email in my spam folder about updating from two weeks ago and there is NOTHING about the content being deleted upon the changeover. I've just contacted the Help team and they are telling me tough luck. I can understand needing to change your pricing structure, I would have had no issues with upgrading to the next tier up, but you can't just permanently erase a stores entire Help/FAQ page and kick them to the curb. This is UNREAL! If they can recover the data then I will update this review. Until then I would STEER CLEAR of this app 100%.

Please note that this is not the norm for us at the HelpCenter app. This isolated issue should have never happened.

DO NOT USE THIS APP!!! They deleted my data and are refusing to restore it. I spent days putting it together. DO NOT INSTALL!!!!! Your "notifications" all ended up in our SPAM folder. You deleted hundreds of FAQ entries from our website without authorization. When we asked for a backup, you said it was TOUGH LUCK; we should have saved it when we had a chance. Your response to this review is a total lie and fabricating because we asked you for the FAQ's you deleted, and you said you couldn't send them to us. BUYER BEWARE! Stay FAR AWAY from this app. There are MANY other options from reputable app developers.
Hello Netrition Team! First of all, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are sincerely sorry that such a case has happened to you. We have tried our best to fix this problem that arose through our fault, and we will strive to ensure that this never happens again. Our dev team had been working hard to bring the missing FAQ data back to your store. As far as we know, we have already provided you with all the information regarding missing data and sent it back to you directly. You can contact our support team or check our email with instructions. We are very sorry that we did not meet your expectations. Let's appreciate the last chance to justify ourselves, and improve our relationship to a new level. Best regards, Helpcenter Team

I was using the FAQ feature of this app for many years. This was free. However, they decided they needed to charge if you had more than 5 FAQ articles. When they launched the pay plan, instead of just limiting your display of FAQ articles to 5, they deleted all of your content beyond the 5 articles. So, even by paying the money to upgrade, I would have had to recreate all of my content in their system. Very foolish and they lost me as a customer.
Hello Stinking Patch Co. Team! We are sorry that the app upgrade made you upset. And wish it was lighter for our customers. During these last week our dev team has been working hard to bring the missing FAQ data back to your store. I’d like to inform you that this process has been completed by now and your FAQ articles should be brought back to your store. You can contact us for the additional details regarding the missing data of FAQ. In case you'd make a decision to be our customer again, please let us know, and we'll try our best to make your journey with us as joyful as it can. Best regards, Helpcenter Team.
