PreOrder Now Backorder WOD

Newly launching my pre-order collection, I will see how it goes with the app and update my review accordingly.

App worked great for a while, after they made some updates we started having issues where some products in stock would show as out of stock with the pre-order buttons. After they made some changes, it seems like one of the settings made all of our out of stock products available for pre-order which caused us to have orders for discontinued products or products we could not get anymore. After that I used AI to build a pre-order tag within our own code.

Online chat was not helpful, although I have an account and my email is linked to it, they needed owner to retrieve a code, owner was not available, so I wasted 45 minutes and got nowhere. Later that week I replied to a follow up email and told them what the issue was, it was resolved straight away. If it was this simple, I am not sure why after 45 minutes in a chat the same outcome was not achieved. Loved the email help but not happy with the online chat help.

So far I haven't experienced anything bad with the app. It enables us to take the cap off our sales and take in as many orders as possible. Only downside is that it doesn't integrate well with certain themes. We use the "Venture" theme and if customers order the product on the home page, they won't be aware that their product is on pre-order when checking out. Also waiting for integration with other sales channels. If customers order from Instagram or Amazon they won't be aware their product is on pre-order and have to manually email each individual customer.

The app has great functionality and look. However, in our store we had some major issues. on 22 - 01 - 12 this app disabled our "Checkout" button on website and customers were really angry. We had to hire a developer to fix the issue and lost a very significant amount in sales that day. Previous to that, the app would not show the "Pre-order" button to customers even though inventory was at 0 and when customers purchased it the app never sent them pre-order emails or let them know this is a pre-order despite inventory being -1. The developer Team is very responsive, but we are just fed up with these issues.

Great! Great, great, hopefully it works really great!!! So glad that this is an option to help us better manage pre-orders

Unfortunately have to downgrade my review. This app is getting very glitchy. Preorders aren't showing up on our site and we keep having to toggle them off and back on to get them working again..

Preorder apps have given me a lot of grief. Anything that lives in the space of the add-to-cart button is going to cause trouble from time to time. This app seems to be the most stable and trouble free. The interface is easy to work with. The tech team is responsive.

It's a fine app, but could benefit from added features and live support. Trust me, you do not want to have your pre-order messages vanish and now you customers have no idea when to expect a product that'll be out 4 months from now. Not fun. Live support + some added quality-of-life improvements or customization options and this app could become a 5 star app.

I needed an easy way to set up my pre order items manually or based on condition, with no impact on the checkout or payment process.
If you have this kind of requirements, go for this app, you won't be disappointed.
On top of this, the support team is great : always fast to answer and helpful. They even adjusted the app for my specific case for free.

UPDATE : There is no way to translate the 'Pre-order' buttons via Langify or any other method. Don't use this if you're looking for a multilinguage solution.

Pretty buggy to set up. Functionally seems to work to change button to pre-order when inventory runs out, but setting up styles is a mess.
