electruck4x4.com review for ViralSweep Giveaways Contests
- Integrates very poorly with Shopify. - Web app is a bit glitchy when trying to edit/preview changes - Certain ViralSweep features that are advertised as being part of a plan are not actually full supported by Shopify and cannot be used. I read the (already extremely complicated) marketing documentation in advance to figure out what ViralSweep platform could/couldn't do. I then paid for a subscription, which I am fairly selective about and don't do often. My intention was to setup an enter to win campaign on my site with no purchase necessary. I spent several hours in ViralSweep designing and configuring this. I then went to install/embed it into my store, (a pretty basic thing that I would expect to be supported by an app like this that is in the Shopify app store). Unfortunately, my entry form/promo failed to show up in my theme despite a number of different approaches. I was told that promotions that don't require a purchase cannot be embedded into your theme. I have to say, this was a pretty disappointing experience. I'm generally wary about apps that are not "built for Shopify" and this is the exact reason. I would suggest contacting them to confirm your exact use case is supported before you subscribe. If not, just look somewhere else.
