Showcase: Shop Instagram Feed

June 11, 2018

The app looks good and straight forward. I am yet to see how it works before i edit my review

Overall I DO very much like Showcase–I love having my most recent 6 IG pictures displayed at the bottom of my homepage, which promotes casual visitors to (hopefully) follow along on IG, and I think the Shoppable Feed is (overall) pretty darn good. James has been very accessible and very helpful, offering to immediately and personally customize and tweak both of the galleries that I have installed on my site. The app looks awesome installed, it's exactly what I was looking for in that regard. In terms of CS, it's top notch: one of my products (with many many variations) was not tagging in the shoppable gallery, and after a couple weeks, James and his team pushed out an update that addressed this. Was happy about that. We've emailed quite a bit, and James has been great, offering workarounds and generally just being open to suggestions. However, my gripes: (1) I'd love to have the option to allow all of my instagram posts to display to the stoppable feed, as I spend a lot of time curating my grid...have them display & open, but without the "buy now" hover that appears on actually shoppable images. (2) There's no way (that I've found) to add photos to the shoppable grid from either my iPhone or iPad right after I've posted a product to my insta feed–this means I have to be in the studio to update Showcase. This also means that it's rarely up-to-date. (3) The above considered, $348/year is steep. $15/mo. for what the app does seems a heck of a lot more reasonable. It's just not a premium product...yet. There's room for improvement. Add more functionality/flexibility/accessibility and I think it'll get there. Dianna | soft-gold.co
