Hulk Product Options , 1,763 reviews

I first contacted Hulk about the issues I was having with their app on August 14, 2019 and my issue is still unresolved. I have received nothing but headaches from their customer service team. If I could I would give this app 0 stars.

We are currently using a competitor app for our product options and were hoping to switch to Hulk to save on money. That being said, due to many of our products having multiple options and it being an integral part of our website, we were unwilling to completely uninstall the competitor app UNTIL we have tested the Hulk app on our website to MAKE SURE that it will work for us.

At HULK's request, we removed the competitor app code from a copy of our live theme so that Hulk can install their code without conflict and we would be able to set up the Hulk options and test it without jeopardizing our live website and impacting our sales.

Hulk went back on what they said and requested that we remove the competitor app from our store completely before installing their own code. As I have explained previously, and to the Hulk Customer Service team, this was not feasible for us until we were absolutely, 100% positive that the Hulk app would work for our website.

It will take us approximately 15 - 20 hours to set up all the different product options from scratch for each product that requires product options.

After posting my first 1 star review (which I have since removed on the basis that they resolve the issues I was having with their app), they agreed to install their Hulk Code on the theme that we removed the competitor app from. From that point it was more headaches. Their options were not displaying on certain products, and for the options that were appearing on products, the conditions were not displaying the options correctly.

I told them 7 times, and several different people which Shopify theme I had the Hulk Code installed on and they always come back saying they need to know which theme I have the Hulk Code installed on.

Hulk has done nothing but run me around in circles for 2 months now and done nothing to resolve the issues I was having with their app.

The app works great when it wants too. What is the most annoying is the lack of customer service and it is impossible to get it corrected in a timely manner.

I got a request for a review so...... I installed it 4-5 days ago. After it installed I tried to create a text field with the app but nothing showed up, was not able to see the field. So I submitted a request for assistance, I put the product page I was trying to add the feature, and also provided an example of what I was trying to do. I got their automated acceptance email, a request for access - which I instantly approved and emailed them to let them know. Then nothing. No one has emailed me or been on the site to look at the issue or assist with the install. This doesn't make me feel that comfortable with them.

very good app..must use...and support team help me to integrate the app.i fulfil my requirement..thx

I got recommended using this app by a well known Shopify Agency in the US, and i have now come up with this review after using the app for about 3-4 weeks. First when installing the application there was limited resources in the live-editor with bad translation and lack of customization. I would much rather prefer English and be able to choose if i want automatic translation manually. I had to contact the support to help me fully install and customize the options as we wanted, with correct font, text, colors, graphic design etc. They were helpful with this, allthough i felt that the developers were sloppy with not reading through my description to the fullest wich ended up with some frustration from my part. Our biggest issue right now has to come with the price formatting. After a long contact with the support back and forth trying to explain this, it turns out that this app is globally changing the price formatting of the store, even on products that doesnt use the Hulk-Options. And they have no way to change this as of now. This is a very negative feature of their application. Their app should not interfere or change/apply anything other than a product using their Hulk-Options. I have asked the support to take this forward to their app developers as a future fix, and i hope they take this urgently. I would also like to comment their support. They always answer within 24 hours, wich is appreciated. But when it comes to their livechat i have a few things to point out.
- Poorly automated translation in their livechat.
- When contacting them with description, including video, screenshots and such, their developers always miss something wich makes me have to contact them again over, and over again.
- I also had a feeling of a language barrier when talking with their developers from India. It felt like my descriptions were not fully understood. To sum this up, so far our usage of this app could be explained by one word: Frustration. But we also want to give them kudos for being fast in the chat on answering our questions. Alltough there is alot to improve on this end. Positives:
+ Fast answers in chat.
+ They help with customization.
+ They help with installation. Negatives:
- They are sloppy followwing instructions/descriptions to the fullest even when providing screenshots, videorecordings, and text.
- Their app is globally injecting a span that changes the price formatting on the entire store, even on products not using their options. To quote their support: "We would not be able to remove it completely from the theme files for it not to apply to the non-option products.
It will affect the price code as the span is attached in the theme files globally for all the products." Future improvements:
- Fix for the priceformatting issue above.
- Either remove the automated translation both in the app dashboard and livechat or drasticly improve it.
- If a developer gets instructions, he/she should go through it carefully after completing the tasks, test it and making sure there is nothing he/she has missed out on. He can after this tell the client that the task is completed. Overall i will give this app 3 out of 5 stars. The last two stars is due to the price formatting issue. I will follow this matter carefully going forward and update this review if these issues is taken forward and improved on.

**UPDATE**
It has now been a few weeks since my last review post, and i unfortunetly have to say that i am deeply unsatisfied with the communication and the poor job done by the devs. I have only been in contact with one developer that has actually made things happening on the store, but i am still waiting for response from him. Time will tell how this ends up. I will follow up and update this review once anything new is happening.
+Since last review they have changed priceformatting
+since last review they answered me and appologised wich i appreciate
-There is still a few things to change/improve and i have sent them documentaion of this
-Manual sync of options doesnt always work, and i have requested for Automatic syncing for future improvements. Especially for us who have big product catalogues with thousands of options. Automatic sync will be a must for us. I hope they will implement this feature soon.

Update 2023-01-27:
I have now been in contact with a great guy Bhavya that has helped us alot and also taken my previous feedback and implemented all above changes. I am now very pleased with the handeling of the situation. A big round of applauds to Bhavya!

the technical support tried helping us, but the app didn't meet our needs.

Recently switched product options apps because HulkApps cart layout is nicer, ran in to some coding issues and customer service was quick and helpful! Thank you Amit and HulkApps!

I am using this app to offer customized products in our store. I am not a coder, but it seemed simple enough to try. I got struck but Hulk Team was extremely helpful and very quick even though I am using the free version! I got in touch with them twice for two different problems and they were brilliant both times. I cannot recommend them enough!

Can't say enough about the support with this app! Fast and helped me figure out exactly what the problem was...sadly my wonky theme doesn't work with this app, but it was super easy to understand and set-up! A+++ SUPPORT

they help if you ask for help, thats cool.
