Buona APP ma a volte può creare problemi e mandare down lo shop, abbiamo avuto questo problema all'inizio, poi sembra rientrato. Quando non crea problemi è ottima.

My speed report were not good after installing the app. I contacted them, they optimized the code and communicated ways of improving the speed. Very good customer service!

I used this app to help with my page speed. I am new to Shopify, so I downloaded so many apps, uninstalled them, and before I could even launch my store, it was running slow. I used several apps from Shopify, but none of them had everything I needed. Image compression, removing code that may have been left on my site. I was able to delete 3 free apps and use just this one. In a couple of hours ( I have over 5000 products on my site), it is running better already! It did disconnect 1 app, that I needed, but that was not an issue. I reconnected and I am still running smoothly! Great App! Especially for someone who is new to Shopify, there are a million apps and they don't tell you that installing and deleting apps can affect your site speed! Use this app!!

Not really impressed. day 3 of the free trial, it won't work and show me my dashboard. It's still saying it's optimising my images which should not take 3 days to do. I have emailed and no reply and I have sent two support requests via Shopify which resulted in 2 automatic responses. I should not have to leave a bad review to try and get a response. All I want to know is if this is going to work or if my money will be better spent elsewhere. Please help

We have had a great experience with Plug in Speed. It was super easy to install and it just works in the background without us having to get involved but we are seeing the improvements- my type of plug in!
Thank You for giving us a shot, and even more for leaving us this review. Thank you, you made our day! We will strive to deliver great experiences consistently.

This app crashed my store three times. Use it at your own risk. It also did nothing to speed up my store. After installing the app and giving it some time to work I checked my website load time increase on several website speed testers, including GT Metrix and Pingdom and there was no noticeable difference. The first time this app crashed my site I had a Shopify expert fix it, at this stage, I did not know what was causing the issue. What happened was Plug in Speed changed my store code and this, in turn, removed all the products from my store. This was fixed by a Shopify expert and all seemed good for a couple of hours. However, a few hours later I checked my store again and this had happened again. The same exact issue. The Shopify expert then fixed it again. Then a third time it crashed my store. The Shopify expert then diagnosed that it was Plug in Speed causing the issue, so we removed the app, and the zombie code it left behind. My site is now totally fine, and I have not had any issues whatsoever since uninstalling Plug in Speed. When I contacted the app developer, they seemed more interested in me helping them fix the app. The tone of their email was dismissive of my issue and showed only an interest in making sure any issue their end was fixed. The customer service is also quite slow, from want I can see they only work 9-5. Their email asked me why I had not contacted them to fix the issue, well the simple truth is I was not willing to leave my shop with no products in it until their office opened and they got around to having a look. Also, you should be aware that if you install this app and then delete it, it will leave behind a fair amount of zombie code, which they will remove if you contact them, but this is not ideal either. This was my experience with Plug in Speed. I think the reply below say's everything about this company. After spending hours diagnosing this issue and working with a Shopify expert, probably about 6-8 hours in total, not so much as an offer to compensate me for my time and angst. They just want to figure out what happened and take up yet more of my time. Sorry, figure it out yourselves. I am not wasting one more second on this. You are developers, you charge for your products, don't insult me by asking me to work for nothing to help you fix your app so it does not get more bad reviews. I will add further information as it comes to hand.
Hi Nick, Here are the details on what happened: April 30: Installed Plug in Speed May 1: We received an email asking why your two shops have different loading times when both of them are using the same theme. May 2: Uninstalled Plug in Speed May 2: Left one-star review May 4: We replied and addressed your issues. May 5: You mentioned that the app crashed your website. We are assuming you are referring to https://www.vapestervaping.co.uk/ since the app was not installed in your other shop. You also mentioned, "I would like to know what you are going to do about this issue and our financial and business reputation costs?" May 5: We asked if you could provide us details about how the app crashed your website since we did not receive any emails about this incident. Usually, when clients say that our app crashed their websites and asked for Shopify's support team's help, we will get CC'ed on that email. We checked our inbox and we did not see any emails from you or Shopify support team. Because of this, we were asking if you could coordinate with us so we can resolve whatever issue you encountered with our app by getting in touch with the developer who worked on your theme so he can give us more details or by giving us access to your Shopify admin, let us look at the copy of the theme that has our app's code so we can investigate further. Imagine someone ordered an item from your shop then left a review saying he got poisoned by one of your products. Won't you want to get to the bottom of the issue by asking for more details and providing a medical report, perhaps? Also, working from 9-5 (Our office hours are from Mon-Fri 8 am - 5 pm Central European Time. which we mentioned in our email May 2) has never been an issue with other customers. We are a small team and most customers understand that. I'd be happy to email Shopify's support team and ask if we can get a hold of the expert who helped you removed our code and get your shop back up. We'd like to get more details on what happened and if our app really caused the issue so it won't happen again in the future. -------- Hi Nick, I would first like to apologize for the experience you had with our app. It is certainly not the experience we want our users to have with our app. I have gone through the support thread you initiated, and surprisingly I couldn't see anywhere you reaching out to us about our app crashed your store. It's only when you mentioned in your review here, we got to know about it, and then my colleague - Aiza- reached out to you to offer help. Please note, we expect our users to reach out to us first in case they face any issue because of our app. Whenever we see any such request, we take that at the highest priority. At times, we go to the extent of removing our app code from the user's store as we understand any delay can cost sales to our users. As my colleague mentioned in her reply, we never received any issues like this in the past. So, to be able to investigate, we will need more information from your end. We're one of the few apps which don't play games with pricing. Also, note, we are not trying to get out of this. Instead, we want to address the issue and help you out here. So, I'd appreciate it if you can share more details on the issue that you face on your end. If you still have a copy of the theme that has our app's code, please share that as we'd like to investigate what caused the issue. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns. We'd love to help you out. Vijay Product Manager - Plug in Speed

It didn't made my site faster. It made it slower actually. Slower on mobile and on PC, too. Don't try it.
Concerned to hear that. Our app makes image and code files smaller. Smaller files are loaded faster so I am surprised to hear that your shop is slower after the optimization. I can help you identify opportunities to speed up your shop by performing a custom speed analysis. If you'd like me to do this for you, please send us a message at [email protected].

Great App, we are a mexican digital B2B companie, this app works great to improve our speed and get better results on google.

For someone who has spent countless hours trying to understand how to improve my page speed manually (and failed) this otherwise relatively pricier has been a huge time saver. There are a few features I wish the app would include such as lazyload or defer images off-screen and that is why I gave it a 4/5 - if you don't need that it is definitely a 5/5.
