This app is useful (when it works) and when it doesn't it is beyond a doubt the worst app I have ever used. My store does 1million+ on shopify so I have most of the top notch apps and this one is one of the best and one of the absolute worst.

I picked a plan upon install and I am "UNABLE" to change that plan. Like at all. Does anybody think thats weird?

So I contact support on 17th December 2019. They tell me various fixes like "uninstall your app, reinstall" the usual stuff. None of it works. Whenever those instructions are followed it just reinstalls on your store and again you are UNABLE to choose a new plan.

Long story short I have been locked into almost 2 months of overcharges now because these complete children cannot do the most basic of functions which is
1) Provide the Shopify user the ability to upgrade/downgrade their plan
or
2) Upgrade or downgrade the plan at the request of the user.

They even asked to be added to Admin Access on the store which they were. And they haven't fixed their problem. Their latest email asks me to get on a call to "discuss concerns"

Like are these jokers and children the worst support ever? The lowest IQ of the barrel bunch of $2 worker slaves out of Mumbai or something?

I CANNOT change my plan due to their apps issues and they WILL NOT change it for me. So I am stuck using an app that I need but am forced to pay overcharges for because I cant upgrade my plan to a higher tier and they cant do or won't do it.

I dont say this often but thats basically illegal. These guys are complete clowns.

They have hidden charges. It doesn't mention in the pricing but they require $5 for each user. So, if you have 3 workers handling the returns, you'll have to play $15 extra etc.. This not mentioned anywhere in the pricing, This is deceptive and frankly unethical. They could have made this clear in the pricing.

Ridiculously overpriced.

Free version was perfect.

Just greed at that price, would have gladly paid $3-5.

IF ANYONE IS READING THIS AND WANTS A REPLACEMENT:

SEARCH > CLICKSIT < - FREE & MUCH BETTER.

(Edit 12/04/18) We were having trouble with upgrading to their new platform as this one will be discontinued so we followed the steps and the API would not work as much as we tried so we contacted customer support and thats when the hell began. What a bunch of incompetent people, never have we dealt with a company who does not know how their platform service integrates with shopify and having to tell them how the collaborator feature works for them to fix the bug. This problem has been going on for around 1 month and is still not fixed. Very disappointed and will happily be switching to another cheaper platform.

(Original post) Easy to use interface have been using for about a month or so, the only downside is there is no way you can customise the emails when you select shipment received. So therefore for you to let the customer know you have the return package it will also tell them that you will be refunding them yet what if they need a return for exchange not a refund? For that reason we have had to find a new returns system.

I agree with others: Using app for a while now and now they are charging a ridiculous amount of $$ for a more complicated version. They should also allow us to use this lite version and charge less as I don't get many returns, it's not worth it to me. Now I am looking elsewhere as well. Disappointed.

It's been 5 days now i've been trying to get support. All I ever get is, "Please allow me to check", "Our team is checking the issue at our end ...." days and days have gone by and it's literally the same response. We've had to hack our way around dealing with exchange requests for this app, and the issue seems beyond the scope of the dev team considering they have told me that "the issue is a bit complicated". It's literally been 5 days, and I'm following up twice a day. One of the chat support told me the issue should be resolve in 4-6 hours, that was 3 days ago. Still no word, still no resolution.

Be aware that if you need to upgrade to the next plan they direct you to uninstall and reinstall the app then you have to redo all your settings, why would they do that? Isn't it common that websites grow and you upgrade to the next plan? Every other app has a simple one button or so click to upgrade they make it easy for their customers.
I messaged the customer service asking them to upgrade me, they sent me links to disconnect, followed the process it does not work in fact after I disconnect the app and go back the connection back, clearly this app has a bug. In speaking with our Merchant Success Manager @ ShopifyPlus she stated that uninstalling and reinstalling an app for upgrade she has not heard of.

Please note that I received an email they would screen share with us at 1pm today, they never sent us the link, we are now 3 days of not being able to create & send return labels for our customers. I sent another time to support. So disappointed in this app. I have worked on many shopify sites with many apps and this is the first time I have had this type of an experience.

Like the person that posted Dec 12, 2019 I am wondering if the reviews for this app are accurate.
