They did something to my store and haven't fixed it yet. Product pics don't come up properly on collection pages and there is still weird lines in between products which I told them to fix but no update. They keep sending automated messages and close the ticket. It's not acceptable.

Hello, Thanks a lot for your feedback. We are sorry that the issue with the borders has influenced your store. It happened because of the latest update that added a new setting for changing the product tile borders color. We know what was the cause and will not let it happen again. Also, as far as we can see, one of our support agents has already helped you to fix the issue and the borders are not displayed in your store anymore. As for the ticket itself, it was closed automatically in 4 days after one of our agents responded, as we didn't receive any further replies from you in that ticket. We apologize for these inconveniences. Please also note that you can re-open any of your tickets by replying to them at any time. If there is anything else we can do, please message us at [email protected], we are always here to help you. Best regards, Searchanise team

I've been using the product for years. Recently they "upgraded" their plans and unless you change to a new plan they'll delete your account. I hate when companies force you into upgrades that you don't need. I mean it's only $77 a year increase but it's a dirty practice that all the app developers seem to be doing now. I'll stay with it for now but might look for other options.

Thank you for sharing your experience with our app. We are sorry to see it was such an unpleasant one! At the same time, your point is certainly understandable. We wish we could arrange the changing of pricing model in a different way. However, we faced a situation when we had to choose a path that let us fully improve our product. We do hope you consider staying with us as losing our long-term clients is especially sad to experience. Therefore, we contacted you via email with a special offer. It would be great to know if this offer sounds engaging. Best wishes, Searchanise team

Thank you very much for taking your time and sharing your experience here! Unfortunately, it is hard to guarantee that our search will work perfectly right after installation in 100% of cases due to the variety of other apps and scripts that might be used in stores, but we are ready to fix any issues at any time. If there is anything else we can do, please feel free to message us at [email protected] at any time. Best regards, Searchanise team

We used this app for about 1-2 years, its pretty good and full of options. They've changed their pricing about 3 times, doubling ths cost most of the time. Way too costly for what it is, we are done with it. We triied to reach customer support and they have no control on it, cant help.

Hello, Thank you very much for your feedback. Glad to hear that you have been using our app for so long and enjoyed its functionality! Regarding the situation with pricing that you are describing, we had started using a new pricing model recently, and prices for some plans indeed have been raised. We kept the pricing the same for over 9 years, but our app has changed quite a lot after all these years, so we had to make changes to the subscription plans eventually. I also must say that we have changed our prices only once, it has never happened before. As far as I understand, you are also referring to the situation when your discount had expired, about which you reached out to us about 5 months ago. In the email with the offer of this discount it was stated that this discount only lasts for 1 year, which it did. We have sent you a message about the pricing for your store at [email protected] a few days ago. If you don't see it in the inbox, please check the spam folder or message us at [email protected]. We will be more than happy to find a solution for you and answer any questions if they arise. Have a nice day!

Not going to lie. The search is good and works. The collection filters, however, are confusing and hard to set up. It is a frustrating process. I did not find anywhere in the app where I could change the font type/size for my filters or search pages. I went through their docs. Something as simple as that that should take a minute becomes a time-consuming task. The boostcommerce app is superior for filtering and is much more user-friendly. I do not recommend this app for product filters. The search results page also looks a bit like windows 95 and needs to be customized via CSS to make it look decent (more time). Another negative is that you don't have a chat. The support team is responsive (it might take a couple of days), but boy, you will have questions. Email might not be the best channel. I'd recommend the devs take filters more seriously and add user-friendly configuration options so everything can be set up easily. No need to spend as many hours trying to understand how everything works or require CSS work for small changes. Update: increasing from 2 to 4 stars. Support worked with me to set things up. I'm still unsure if I will use this app for collection filtering, but they were keen to help and did their best.

Thank you for your elaborate feedback! We are sorry to see you found the configuration process for filters time-consuming. We understand how annoying it can be when it comes to such fundamental functionality. Your opinion will certainly be considered so we can improve this part of a user experience. Good to see our support team was there to help you though. Please feel free to contact us anytime whether it's about CSS or any other setting. We are always glad to assist you!

Words can't express how above and beyond the staff/techs go to help you out with practical customizations. I highly recommend this app mostly because of the support you get along with it. Plus, the app itself is a perfect 10, we couldn't do the things we wanted to do on our site without it. www.toplineeyewear.com

The app itself is solid, but they've changed their pricing twice recently which took our site functionality down until we figured out that we had to re-sign up for a new plan. If we'd been notified so we could have been proactive that would have been great, instead we had to find out the expensive way, when your Shopify site was no longer working properly. Moreover, the first time this happened, there was a bug which wouldn't let us accept new pricing. In short, we like the app, but the management of it and the service of it had a very bad impact on our business.

Hello. First of all, thank you very much for mentioning that the app it self is useful :) We are more than happy that you keep using our app after the episode you describe in the review. We are terribly sorry that our process of switching to the new prices had a negative impact on your business. The troubles you've experienced were not planned by any means. We have tried to notify you by sending notifications via email, about a month before we started the process, making an announcement on our official site, and also showing a banner with information about this in the app's admin panel. Unfortunately, none of these things guarantee that the information was available to all of our clients. We are sorry that we couldn't find a more reliable way to notify everyone. Regarding us not being able to resolve the issue with signing up in time, which caused the app not working for some time. Our support team has been overwhelmed by all the incoming emails during that period. Thankfully, that spike is over now and things are back to normal. Please review our email regarding this situation that we've sent you. Best regards, Searchanise team

Was working well then they changed their pricing to charge for all out of stock products which don't even show up in the search results which is a joke so had to delete the app after years of great results

Hello. It appears that there has been some kind of misunderstanding. The pricing changes haven't affected what products our app indexes, i.e., what products are counted towards the catalog size supported by subscription plans. Out of stock products have always been searchable and counted by default. There are several ways to exclude products from indexation, though: 1) Exclude products with specific tags as described here: https://docs.searchanise.io/hide-products-from-search-shopify/; 2) Set products to Draft; 3) Make products unavailable in Online store. Please message us at [email protected] about this issue. We will be glad to resolve it!

A really disappointing experience from start to finish. During a routine speed audit, our web agency discovered that Searchanise was causing our Shopify store to run much slower than it should, so we uninstalled the app and contacted the developer to request a refund of our annual subscription. Several days later, there’s been no reply whatsoever from Searchanise. Poor performance and poor customer service - the worst of all worlds!

Hello, Thanks a lot for sharing feedback with us. We are sorry to know that we have made such an impression on you. Unfortunately, our support team has been overwhelmed lately. We are terribly sorry that we had to make you wait. Anyway, we did our best to improve the response time of our support team and we hope that such delays won’t appear again. Regarding the issue with store speed, all the Searchanise scripts are loaded asynchronously, so it shouldn't affect overall performance. However, if you face any difficulties with that again, please let us know. Our whole team will be happy to find a solution for you. Best regards, Searchanise team.
