Notify! Back in Stock|PreOrder

We pay for the Pro subscription, yet without any warning, our ability to send SMS notifications and use other crucial features was blocked. We were in the middle of preparing a restock campaign for a highly anticipated product, and now we can’t send notifications to our customers due to an error caused by the app.

We reported the problem to support – instead of real, immediate help from a person, we were forced to interact with an unhelpful bot. Eventually, we were told we have to wait 24 hours for the technical team to respond. The only explanation provided was that ‘this might be a bug caused by the release of annual plans.’ During this waiting period, our company is losing money – we have an active social media campaign generating traffic, with all notifications ready to go out, but we can’t send them.

You simply can’t rely on this app during critical moments for your store. Because of this incident, I’ll be forced to look for an alternative solution, as this situation is unacceptable and cannot happen again. I absolutely do not recommend this app – we lost time, money, and customer trust because of this issue.

This company offered a decent product, but after we were locked in to their system, they raised the prices by hundreds of dollars per month. Unfortunately it is not a simple process to migrate to a new vendor because Shopify imposes an import limit of 1000 records. If you have lots of customers waiting for notifications, you will not be able to migrate. This company was polite, but offered no assistance in dealing with this problem. Notify Me was an expensive, complicated mistake, avoid.

The Notify Me app works great for back-in-stock alerts. I ran into a small bug, but Pearl fixed it quickly and was super helpful. Awesome service!
