PitchPrint

March 3, 2021

Honestly one of the worst experiences I have had with an app in several years using Shopify. Promises the world at a low cost and then definitely does not deliver. I can honestly say that I have tried every single product customization tool that is available on Shopify - some good, some bad, but nothing is as bad as PitchPrint. The team at PitchPrint do respond to support requests quickly. Thats about the only thing I can think of that would be a positive though - and I really tried to think of good things to say to balance this out. The problem is that whilst PitchPrint are trying to keep up with the better apps available on Shopify they are failing to address the poor foundation with which they have built their app on. Let me give some examples: - Do you want to use text in your designs? Don't use this app, because the text will differ from what the customer puts in to what is downloaded. I'm not just talking about differences in size or location of the text, I'm talking about the actual font itself will just randomly change - Do you want to let customers add images to your designs? That is a struggle as randomly images will not appear on a downloaded output design (even though it appears to the customer and within the pitchprint dashboard, just not on your output file). - Do you want customers to be able to use mobile? Don't bother with this then because even though I flagged an issue to them that customers on certain mobile devices are unable to upload images, it is still not fixed now 4 months later. The answer when i flagged this up to the support? - "well it works on our mobiles so the issue can't be with pitchprint". I had around 100 different customers raise support tickets about this and those where only the ones patient enough to send a support ticket, many more would have got annoyed and gone to a different website. - Want to be able to edit and help customers live whilst they are making their designs (which is prominently advertised on their site)? Don't bother with this then because after you sign up they say "oh, this feature isn't working now" (their exact words) and then they'll never mention or bring it up again. - Want to speak with them before signing up to check what you want to do is available and possible? Well don't bother with this then as I had conversations for a few weeks before signing up about setting up a custom integration alongside several shopify stores on the agency plan. Only after i signed up did they mention that the agency plan isn't actually working and they'll have to figure out a way to do it. I could go on and on about the failures and inadequacies of the whole Pitch Print app, but its easier to just say this: Don't do it. Contact me and I will be happy to tell you which apps are the best on the shopify app store, for free. My only aim would be to make sure that others do not waste months of time with PitchPrint.
