Speed Kit
The reviews are overwhelmingly positive and consistently praise Speed Kit for significantly improving site performance, especially page load speed, responsiveness, and key metrics like Core Web Vitals and LCP. Merchants repeatedly mention that the app makes their stores feel much faster and smoother to navigate, sometimes almost like a web app with near-instant page transitions. Several reviewers also highlight that the app is particularly valuable in Shopify environments where third-party scripts and platform limitations can hurt speed, and they note measurable business benefits such as better user experience, longer sessions, and more items in carts. Another strong positive theme is the quality of onboarding and support. Reviewers describe the setup as easy or well-guided, and they appreciate that the Speed Kit team handles implementation carefully, tests gradually, and is responsive and helpful when questions arise. The main negative point mentioned is that caching can be tricky in some cases, especially during initial setup or with unusual Shopify link structures, though this appears to be resolved after reconfiguration or platform changes. Overall, the feedback suggests a highly effective performance solution with excellent support, with only minor implementation caveats.

Wir hatten in unserem Shop mit zu langen Ladezeiten auf den Kategorie- und Produktseiten zu kämpfen. Mit Speed Kit haben wir unsere Performance deutlich optimieren können. Das Onboarding lief auch super: Das Team hat uns hervorragend durch den gesamten Prozess geführt und mit Shopify ist die Einrichtung auch sehr einfach. Seitdem sind unsere Core Web Vitals messbar besser.
Très bonne expérience avec Speed Kit ! Le produit est vraiment excellent et améliore nettement l’expérience de navigation. Le site se comporte presque comme une véritable web app avec des chargements de pages quasiment instantanés. L’intégration s’est toujours très bien passée de notre côté. Lars et Frances sont également très disponibles, réactifs et efficaces pour accompagner la mise en place et répondre aux différentes questions. Nous sommes très satisfaits de la solution et de l’accompagnement de l’équipe Speed Kit. Je recommande !
Page speed is a critical factor in E-Commerce, and with Speed Kit, we've witnessed a remarkable transformation! Not only did it provide a seamless user experience, but it also significantly increased our Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) metric. Thanks to Speed Kit, our website now loads faster than ever before, capturing our customers' attention instantly. Speed Kit's easy implementation and impressive results make it an essential tool for any E-Commerce business seeking success in today's fast-paced digital world. Highly recommended!
I'll past in my review from G2 here: Speed kit is a form of caching technology that greatly speeds up the responsiveness of your website/webshop, by using a service worker. It caches all static parts of your site, and dynamically replaces dynamic content. This means that the time from clicking something, to something happening, is near-instant. When shopping online, your tolerance for low speed is pretty low. Something should happen as soon as you click, and with Speed kit, it does! We are using it for Shopify Plus, meaning it's a hosted platform with limited access to the server, and caching settings. Since it's a hosted platform, we greatly depend on third-party apps to get the functionality we need. This means a lot of scripts and assets needs to be loaded on all pages, and limiting the negative impact of all of these third parties, is very difficult. Speed kit doesn't fix "everything speed" by just setting it up, but it can make even the most cluttered site feel a lot faster. The team sets everything up for you, and then gradually tests the impact with a limited set of users until the configuration is smooth. (unlike many Shopify apps that just activate themselves upon installation). We had some issues with caching in the beginning, most likely caused by the unusual link structure in Shopify before Online Store 2.0. After we switched to Dawn and set up Speed Kit again, none of these issues has been present, and the dynamic components get refreshed instantly. Speed kit helps us retain great responsiveness for our webshop, regardless of third-party services negatively impacting our speed. This directly improves visitors session duration, number of items in the carts, and pages per session.
