Gelato: Impresión Bajo Demanda

Terrible unacceptable absolute no-go experiences with Gelato, continued!! ‍
Gelato platform / system is full of bugs, nothing works properly, constant hazzles, loss of effort+time!
Processes not well thought out, misleading claims
Dev team does NOT understand how to properly implement features, NO clue how to nail safe test before release
CS (Customer Support) most of times NOT aware of all those bugs their platform has!
CS AND Gelato itself committed to ABSOLUTE NO-GOs, lying & cheating, sadly
=> We switched to a competitor: Smooth, efficient + bug-free service

Lying about Printing Locations = ABSOLUTE NO-GO!!
Gelato claims to print everything in CH, but turned out only posters but NOT T-Shirts/Hoodie etc.
CS even asked "how did you find out" !! Confirming that company obviously cheats, trying to hide what they're lying about

"Product Expansion":
Made to gain time, but requires learning curve, final products contain bugs, actually you loose time!
Instead Gelatos ad claim "scale business", you ruin it with lost repeated efforts, time+money gone!

API:
Functional parts shown online unfinished, NOT WORKING, before CS told us to use it, we run into various bugs , 1st confirmed by 2 separate "junior consultants"
Then "senior implementation manager" gets into the conversation , suddenly claims
"No, there is no bug, we the merchant using their API must apparently NOT follow the API description correctly, NOT understanding the semantics of an API, the failure is on us" !!!!
This let us literally freak out: Change in policy how to communicate with merchants? Blaming on the customer their own bugs/failures?
Senior manager finally admitted ONLY IN CALL that this part of the API is actually not working !! ‍
But only in a call, not admitted in a mail knowing THIS COULD BE LEGALLY HOLDING.
=> Absolute NO-GO!

Suddenly accusing the customer is doing wrong whereas Gelato confirmed the bug before is NOT AT ALL how to interact.
You do NOT accuse your customers for doing wrong in order to avoid having to admit your own bug which has been admitted twice before by your colleagues !!
=> Finally we asked Gelato CS why lying online and not taking this part of the API doku down as it's highly misleading (aka cheating) that this shall work to other merchants as well = no reply !!

"New Personalization Studio":
"Seamless integration" incredibly slow, "DOES TAKE AGES TO LOAD", from 3 to 30 seconds Gelatos asks money for that!!!
Appears to any end customer page is NOT
Renders any product you place on your shop USELESS!
DO NOT USE GELATO!

Summary of hazzle and shame:
NOT ANY TRUST ON GELATO AS A WHOLE COMPANY! Constant hazzles-lies-cheating-bugs, loss of effort+time+money!
Gelato company has the guts to put parts of an API online CLAIMING A FUNCIONALITY while ACTUALLY CHEATING on that, willingly having to know API DOES NOT WORK!! ABSOLUTE NO-GO !!
Gelato company has the guts TO ACCUSE ITS OWN CUSTOMERs that they may not understand the technique, whereas it has been confirmed before that the API HAS BUGS, API DOES NOT WORK!! THREATENING THE CUSTOMER TO AVOID ADMITTING OWN FAILURES is NOT how to behave as a company!! ABSOLUTE NO-GO !!
We lost time again and get annoyed with the Gelato system = not intuitive, not straigt-forward, FULL OF BUGS !!
IMPOSSIBLE TO TRUST GELATO in its total!
Cause they work on fancy videos, fancy claims, fancy ads "scale your business" whereas upper management at CEO&CTO level should know HUGE PROBLEMS WITH SYSTEM, TONS OF PLATFORM BUGS, partially wrong NON-INTUITIVE manner of processes, ALL A HAZZLE. ‍

Just use any other POD provider than Gelato: Stay safe and healthy out there!

Gelato has integrated seamlessly with my business and added the element of print on demand to my artwork so I can now bring my designs to my audience in fun new ways! It was intuitive to set up, easy to figure out, takes the stress out of print on demand, shipping, and fulfillment, and I’ve enjoyed working with the customizable options! 100% recommend!

Gelato has been a game-changer for my print-on-demand business. The platform is incredibly user-friendly, making it easy to create, customize, and manage products. The variety of high-quality materials and printing options ensures my customers receive premium products, from art prints to apparel.

What sets Gelato apart is its global production network, which means faster delivery times and reduced shipping costs for customers worldwide. I also appreciate the eco-friendly focus, like local production and FSC-certified materials, aligning perfectly with my brand's sustainability goals.

Their customer support is responsive and helpful, addressing any issues promptly. The integration with e-commerce platforms like Shopify is seamless, saving time and reducing manual work.

Gelato has been exceptional in producing products economically, at the right price and on time. The network is extensive, and let me cover my sales internationally. Thank you for a great working relationship.

I have used print on demand sites before, but NONE like Gelato. The ability to use templates to take one design and apply it to a multitude of shirts absolutely blew my mind!

The first time I used this, I tried to apply one design to all the colors and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't work -- until I realized "limit of 100 shirts per template" meant that my 590 shirt designs FROM ONE TEMPLATE was a wild dream come true!

I very highly recommend this site if you've got a bustin' catchy line that you want to share with the world!!
