I actually logged into this app to delete it. I love the idea, but since adding it to my shop it has reduced my sales by playing havoc with the online store. Customers cannot use the drop downs in my store as when they go to the checkout their selections have changed to the top selection on any product. Not what they have chosen. I cannot recreate it and your support people cannot create the issue, but I have so many complaints. This was never an issue prior to the integration of this app.
Hi Showdown Rugs,
We’re very sorry to hear that you’ve experienced this issue. In the past, we’ve seen this happen due to a javascript conflict, potentially with another app that has been installed. Unfortunately, as you note, we’ve been unable to replicate this issue for your store, which makes it very difficult to identify and implement a fix. Our development team has been informed of this unusual behavior and we will be investigating it to try to nail down a root cause.
The app has gone down and all my pre-orders are in chaos...no communication or warning...it was working so well, whats happened?
Hello! This is Sean, the Ops Manager with Pre Order Now.
I am terribly sorry about your experience. Around 2pm EST on Thanksgiving Day (last Thursday), an abnormally high level of volume caused our app some sever technical issues.
Our Development team went into action, and had our app moved to a MUCH larger technical server platform within 3 hours, and the issues were completely resolved. App has been working seamlessly since then.
With our much larger capacity for volume, this same issue will not happen again.
I am so sorry that this negatively affected your store. I will email you directly to arrange for a refund! And in the future, you should not experience this again with our app.
Thanks SO much for your understanding,
Sean & The Pre Order Now Support and Development Teams
difficult to set up. forced to use the trial without even being ready to use it.

EDIT (original review below): We ran a pre-sale on t-shirt designs and the app did not send payment emails for some sizes but it did for other sizes. The emails with the payment link are sent from the app company, so we can't reach out to the customers directly to collect payment. We've been waiting for almost 3 weeks for a resolution and it appears we'll lose thousands in sales revenue. The support is not very supportive or responsive.
This app is actually a little more difficult to use than I thought. Customer service is still fine with only a little bit of a delay. I've changed my mind on the app being intuitive over all but as I've started using it more, I keep having questions that aren't easy to resolve on my own.
This app looks like it does exactly what we need. Preorders with initial partial payment option. I had some trouble getting the partial payment part of it set up but Roel helped me right away, even after hours. The app is intuitive over all but as with any new app it takes just a little bit of time to work out any issues. They are fast, friendly and have really responsive customer service.
Hi Tees 4 Togo,
We’re very sorry to hear that you’re experiencing this problem and have not received a proper resolution. We will be launching an internal investigation to determine how to prevent this from occurring in the future, and a member of our team will be reaching out to you today.
Pre-order banner shows up even if your first variant is available for immediate purchase.
If you want to display your item as being available for immediate purchase as variant 1 and preorder as variant 2, the pre-order badge will still display on your home/collection screen. It doesn't make any sense if you would like your customers to be able to preorder the item once it runs out.
Works fine if you just need the listing to say preorder available now
Edit: apparently the owner doesn’t like honest and fair reviews and will message you asking you to delete it if you leave one. Professional.
Customer service let me down big time, I had an on going pre-order going on and they took more than how many days to never fix the problem. Spoke with multiple reps and got the same run around. Use them at your own risk. I Just uninstalled the app so I can use an app that works with my store.

Thank you very much for leaving us this feedback. This is Pushpesh, the Customer Success Manager with Pre‑order Now.
I am sorry to hear that the app did not work perfectly on your store. We regret that we were not able to provide you with a good service. I'm VERY sorry about this, it is not at all what we aim for.
This seems to be a very peculiar issue that we could not able replicate on our end. It seems to be a conflict with some other app that is already installed on your store. We are committed to getting this fixed for you. If you are still open to trying the app again, please let me know and I will arrange for our best developers to look into your case ASAP.
We also love to offer complimentary live screen-share calls to all our valued clients where we can talk you through the whole process and make double-sure our app is playing well with your theme. We work hard to make sure every merchant who uses our app has an A+ experience. I sincerely hope that you would give us another chance to get it right for your store.

App was confusing at best. But mainly did not work. I could not get pre-order button to show up. help instructions were confusing. I requested support and got nothing. then, the app stopped opening all together. So, it was just a big waste of time.

I want to extend my sincerest apologies for the negative experience that you had with Pre‑Order Now. Our app is being used by a lot of merchants and it has been serving most of them really well. We immediately replied to your request for help but did not get any response from you. Can you please check your spam folder to see if the messages are getting routed there?

Honestly, the app was pretty cool when it was actually working, but that only lasted about a week. The support team was quick to respond, but it felt like they were kinda lost on how to fix things. If something wrong happens, be prepare for answers like "for your theme specific". I'm using the Dawn theme, which is super common on Shopify, and I didn't mess with the theme code. So, if you're using Dawn theme like me, you might want to think twice about using this app. We had issues with synchronization, and it took them several days without a solution (or even explanation). The last time I checked in on the problem, all I got was a "seen" notification without any reply.
Update: I am hopeless trying to explain the same problem to Support for so many days without getting anywhere. Uninstalling the app now.
Hi Rotorquest Inc,
We’re very sorry to hear that you’ve had this experience with our application.
We’re not sure what you are referencing pertaining to the Dawn theme, as there are no conflicts with this theme and our app, and we did not see it mentioned in the relevant tickets.
The synchronization issue was caused by a recent server issue that causes changes to take time to be reflected on the front end. Unfortunately, this issue can be difficult to replicate and surfaces intermittently, which extends the time it takes to resolve. Our developers are currently working to fix this issue, which should be resolved shortly.
Although we did reply to you on September 4th, we do apologize for the issues you’ve had here. We will reach back out to you as soon as a fix for the synchronization issue is confirmed and deployed.

this app could be described as average at best and shitty at worst. Can't change the button color and it stopped working after a week
Did not work with Turbo theme from out of the sandbox. App developer blamed theme. Theme developer said its app developers responsibility to make sure it works with the theme.
We're sorry to hear the theme developer has passed the buck on this, but we're also disappointed that you've decided to leave a 2-star review.
Our support staff expended considerable time tracking down the exact location and cause of the error in your theme and even explained the needed fix.
