Privy ‑ Email, SMS & Pop Ups

Sept. 23, 2016

Works very well. We have had a few issues with it not syncing to Hubspot.

Using the app for a pop up on my site. I have had a lot of sign ups within the first month.

Super easy to use - looking forward to seeing how the integration with CC works.

So far excellent. We have only had this running for a couple of days but we are already seeing good results and new visitors to our shop registering to our newsletter and placing first orders. Great!

Really liked the GUI for creating my email signup form. I wish there was more options in placement of the tab because it interferes with another tab I set up in my Shopify site. However, I love the MailChimp integration and this plug-in is a gamechanger for our marketing.

So far so good! I've only been using a short while and things have been easy to set up, as well having the chat bar for support within the app is a great service and peace of mind. Can't really qualify for a full 5 stars because I haven't been using all aspects of it fully. That said, I did check out the landing page builder and I think it could use some work, like offering at least a couple basic templates to work from. Mailchimp integration for automated emails was pretty easy as well.

Overall this is a great app for pop-ups and email capture. The interface is clean and professional and service is excellent. One thing that bugs me is the monthly price. If you want to get more detailed information from your subscribers, the dynamic hidden fields are only available on the Growth account which is 199$ per month. I'm presently looking for another option since I can't really afford to invest 2400$ per year on this option yet...

It does for free what offers charge. It's fully customizable and works fine. My only issue is the fact that autoresponders don't work, but I'm sure there will be a way to fix that.

So far it has been a great experience using Privy. StandingDeskConverter.com is getting more sign ups every week. I have to attribute this to Privy and it's features. Bravo!

works as expected. wish i could customize the PRIVY logo at the bottom (you know, how you can with mailchimp). Otherwise has been working well.

Our website is www.thecanvasworks.ie and we make beautiful canvas and framed prints of your mobile and camera photos. We installed Privy after trying various other sign up apps such as Lifter Apps and Sumo Me. I have to say - I've been impressed by the UI and the customer service - all very slick. The functionality on the free version is okay but I found the dashboard a little confusing. You can edit your campaign by clicking Edit on the top right but then you are prompted to edit your Website widget just below it. They seem like the same thing to me? Must be missing something. Maybe they just need to fine tune the onboarding using Intecom? All in all, I would recommend this App - it's nicely designed and I think it will be a solid addition to our site. Patrick Ryan

I would recommend the Privy. It is a great way to grow your contact list. It's a necessary app for new e-commerce sites.

Stared using Privy and I'm already seeing result in a week's time. Nothing spectacular but its definately an achievement in its own right. 1) Like it that I can customise the newsletter signup form despite being on a free plan (for now). Awesome! 2) The auto-generated code links for various social media platform is helpful. Just copy n paste. Easy. I'm also beginning to see some results from Instagram. 3) Ben is helpful and responsive. Great solution n customer service. Thumbs up!! Would love to see more templates!! Keep up the great work, Team Privy.

Really great product! We have been consistently capturing 2-4% of our visitors email addresses and seen a slight bump in our conversion rate overall already. I expect both of those to increase with more usage as we get better at timing when the pop-up occurs and hone our message a little bit. The only slight ding for me stems from the control over the button placement. It might just be my theme but as we have a chat app as well, I would much prefer the button to be on the top but with my theme it either blocks the search bar on the left or the cart on the right. We're overhauling our website right now and if my designer tells me I have more control over that sort of thing on my end I will likely amend my review.

We have tested out several other similar apps and we chose to roll with Privy for the following reasons: 1) Privy works on mobile - Check 2) Privy looks great and easy to use - Check 3) Privy reporting metrics are easy to understand - Check 4) Privy sync’s with other mail app’s - Check 5) They have a very unique banner option that we really enjoyed testing out. A lot of other apps have similar feature sets, but we really fell in love with one of Privy’s banner sets. Yes, great design can tilt the pendulum. **Bonus**: Offer codes that can only be used once or for first-time purchases. If there was a single drawback ( and this is 100% manageable one if you have patience ) the backend isn’t the easiest to navigate. It looks very un-intimidating with the colors and fonts, but the UX/UI is slightly confusing with all of the tabs inside a campaign having their own set of options that open in different pages. You can sometimes forget where certain actions are to adjust or change. This is par for the course though, and any e-commerce owner should understand this more then the common person. The Privy team needs to see where the pain points are and I am sure they will adjust the app accordingly. For the robust feature sets provided by Privy, and the well designed easy to set up mobile compatible opt-in banners, I think it would be hard to find a better option out there that would suit our needs.
