Shogun ‑ Landing Page Builder

I'm all but taken away by not only the EXTREMELY VALUABLE tutorial information that Nick had shared, but also by the lengths that the support staff are willing to go to, in order to help their customers. After countless hours of research and review-reading that I've done for the past couple of months, as well as the disappointment that had nearly "rained on my parade" (due to the negative reviews given by some on a variety of sites affiliated with launching a retail store online), I'd almost turned away from my dream. Thanks to Nick and the rest of the support staff, I've turned that frown upside down. With every tutorial I watch and every confidence-building reply that I receive from these professionals, I find myself becoming more knowledgeable in a realm of the website building process and the blinders have finally been stitched on. With such talented individuals on the Shogun team, the only chance at outside failure is the inability or unwillingness to put one's defeated subconscious aside, grab that bull by the horns & force one's way down the right path. I now have the utmost respect for the staff at Shogun. PHENOMENAL EFFORT, SHOGUN!!!!!! CLASS ACT!!!! Oh..and P.S....I was in a bit of a bind today and saw that Shogun was closed until Monday. I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed, but not in Shogun. I knew that I still had a ton of products to view, review, determine whether or not I wanted them in my store, price checks and practically playing the part of a day trader just to assure that I'd be competitive in the roulette-world of eCommerce. I did, however, understand that everyone needs time off each week. Then, out of the blue, Nick replied to a message that I'd sent early this morning. When I finally saw that there was a response 2 hours prior to me seeing it, I replied to his message (thinking that a time lapse would occur before I heard back from him), but to my surprise, he read my message and responded right away. Thank you, Nick!!!!

I needed more customization options than shopify allowed as a non-coder and they make it super easy and have the fastest support team I've ever dealt with!

Great product, great customer service!

Can confirm this review: It's a pretty solid page builder. Lacking some functionality, especially around your ability to position elements, but nothing that can't be fixed in later updates. I wish that I could edit the category pages with greater precision.

My biggest problem is with the price. They keep raising it. $39 a month for a basic page builder is just greedy. If it were around $15 a month I'd give it 4 stars.

So far so good; really helpful tool in creating attractive pages (About, FAQ) you'd think would be included in a $180 Shopify theme. Excellent, insanely fast customer service. Jill fixed a small issue I was having two minutes after I asked. Highly recommended!

When I had a problem using the app, I contacted them and they responded within an hour. After that, I was able to use it smoothly and it was very helpful!

Here's the thing. I'm cruising along buildin' ma' pages, loving the app, when about midnight on Saturday rolls around and I get this mysterious Shopify error message inside Shogun's page builder. The kind where I'm at a stand still and can't publish pages. I'm NOT a developer so I go through the usual amateur motions of flailing my way around google trying to figure out what could be happening as panic sets in. I try Shopify support and wait for an hour in a que (#78..). Very nice guy says he'll pass it on to the developer. I'm think: yeah, right (cynical, i know).

I give up, write an SOS email to Shogun support and figure I'll just sleep on it ...hoping against hope I won't be jolted awake by nightmares of catastrophic failure (i.e. cyber weekend is coming and i got no storefront). Oh, and I'm already writing off Sunday cuz no way I'm gonna hear back, right?

No sooner than I set my toothbrush down than I get a...get this...I get a PHONE CALL...from a strange number. I'm like, no, it can't be. I pick up. "Hey, it's Nick from Shogun - saw your email and figured you were working late, too..." whaaaaat?

A super-calm and professional Nick explains that they were working on a new feature and it was causing this error and they'd have it fixed by morning. BOOM.

Lights out. Slept like a baby.

Since then, I've needed support a few times and I gotta' say it feels good to know there's an open line to Shogun's team.

Moral of the story?

Not a developer? Need waaay better Shopify pages...AND sleep at night? Shogun.

Shogun overall is great. They make creating pages very simple and easy. I have had a problem or two with the responsiveness, but even when I did the team was very quick to address and fix the issue. Great app.

helped me showcase my website in a unique manner with all the features they offer all under one roof. would recommend

Absolutely stellar app, especially for someone new trying to figure it out. I was trying to make simple edits to my pages for months, but I couldn't implement them till I used to the app. It makes the whole process so much easier and intuitive, even if you have no coding experience (like me!).

And the customer service is fantastic. I pestered them with innumerable minor questions and they were quick to respond.
