The test email isn't sending, the email campaign isn't sending, and no emails are being received. I had to escalate this to the support team, and it took an unreasonable amount of time just to figure out why the email marketing isn't working. This is an email marketing app, yet it’s failing at the one thing it’s supposed to do.

Hi after using it we needed to export ours 1885 contacts, Avada forced us to get their pay plan to get our own contact. This is simply a robbery.
Please dont dowload this app they will rob your email contacts
We also wrote an email to the shopify team to delete their app from the shopify appstore.

used the app 2 years, but there have been technical problems in recent months, Inexplicably sent last year's order confirmation email, many of our customers complained why send last year order confirm email, the most disastrous thing was sending hundreds of emails at once.

I want to set up email once and run it forever, This app obviously can't do that, it has a lot of technical errors. If you schedule an email to be sent, it may not be sent on time, and may be four or five hours later than the time you set. The worst thing is that SMS delivery will also be delayed. If you set it to be sent at 8 pm, it may be sent at 1 am.Every time you ask, the customer service will explain that it is a technical reason.

Sometimes the button to send the test email disappears, sometimes integration with other app breaks, and by the time you discover it, months have passed.

I've had enough of the recurring problems, obviously this is not a mature app, and its technical errors may cause you to lose a lot of customers. by the way, there are also problems with email recognition. Many customer emails are identified as undeliverable, but Shopify's automatic emails can be sent to the customer's inbox.

Although it is cheaper than other apps, it has many shortcomings and I have to give up this app.

Please stay FAR AWAY from AVA. There are constantly technical issues and their support team cannot help with anything. If I were to describe my experience with AVA it would be far too long, so I'll summarize it with this one sentence: AVA marketing sucks.

Not sure how they received 5 stars. This app has given me so many problems over the last few months. Ive tried to be patient but when emails don't send out when you schedule them or even select "send now", coupon codes generate by themselves and send out randomly, the segments are never accurate and we cant rely on them, this has caused a bit of frustration for many of my clients. I like the convenience of the automations and segments but its not worth the frustration. :(. Customer service is ok but they are not available during USA hours. I hope no one else experiences the glitches I have had with this app and the customer service seems to be available off and on at different times and they respond when they want.
