Par note
I ask for help about SEO. I never get any reply after I give the app a 5 star.
It cost me $39/month without any support, and the page I built cannot shown or crawled by google search engine. What a shame!
Thanks so much for taking time to leave a review! I'm so glad to hear that you've had a wonderful experience with Shogun Page Builder and our support team.
If there is anything we can help with, please don't hesitate to let us know :)

Shogun Page Builder
Updateupdate: They make changes to live pages (without your permission). You have to tell them to revert back (it made visible changes to layout/text). Then they tell you now it's looking as before. Only later do you realize, yea it does, on desktops.. but not mobile!! My whole product description was missing.
Then a test product were added to live page, without telling me that I had to remove them.. I don't know if I should have figured out I was sup' to remove it myself, after he tested something with it..
Shogun dev. team, pls be careful with live pages, and check on all devices..
Hey Niklas- sorry for the delay here- I know our team was in touch right away, but it took a moment for me to get to this personally. This has prompted a lot of internal discussion on support approach. Some clients care most about speed to reply- our global presence is an advantage there: we have support team in USA, UK, Jamaica, Philippines, India, Canada, and Australia- so when one rep might have signed off, 2 more have signed on. That said, some clients probably prefer consistency- and would prefer contact with just one rep, even if that means waiting 12+ hours for a reply. Regardless, your feedback has prompted a few things (1) We're going to implement a formal NPS system to get to experience problems like this before they are a major issue (2) We are considering an initial option in chat that asks if the priority is "speed" or "dedicated rep" (3) we are QA-ing our support process, looking for things like better internal commenting in support convos etc. Long winded response, but want you to know that you are heard. Thank you - Nick (Cofounder, Shogun)
I would love to try the App, but sadly there is now 10 days trial?
Actually, even on the website, a trial is advertised...
Would love to test it. Message me hannes@stoyo.io
Hi Hannes! It appears that the trial period for this store was used originally back in March of 2019, however, we have gone ahead and re-enabled this so that you can try Shogun once more :) A support team member has also reached out to help with anything else you may need. Happy New Year! - Nick (Cofounder, Shogun)
2nd Review
Now it has been the 20th time, and another whole day of work - gone!!
It is so frustrating, and it keeps letting me down again and again! This time, i used Safari as you told me to.
Why is it that this program keeps letting me down all the time again again and again? Even when it tells me everything is saved?
It is not, and I am really getting quite frustrated!!
I will definetly not recommend this page builder, and I will look around for something else - Saving issues is the minimum of what you will expect of an online platform
1st Review
Want to avoid serious headache with saving?
Do not use Shogun!!!
This application has critical issues with saving abilities
I've been working with it for three months, and i've have experienced multible times saving issues costing me awefull lot of time and headache.
When you hit "Save" it does not always saves, even tho it tell you so. Then when you refresh your browser, all your work from previous saving, until now, is gone.. Caput... Very very frustrating.
More frustrating is it, because you do not know when the saving is not saved. It is just comes up randomly.
So... If please Shogun, fix this saving issue
Updated!
Hey Kasper- I know Abhinav has been helping you out, but just wanted to acknowledge your frustration here. It may be the that the browser you're using (Brave) is causing the issue. We aim for compatibility with all browsers, but focus on Chrome and Safari. We're here to help, so let us know what we can do. Also- we need to add "auto-save" as a feature, and that is on our roadmap. Thanks! - Nick (Cofounder, Shogun)
Unexpected HUGE charge
Trying this app is not advised… I was shocked to see that I was automatically charged almost $400 (with taxes) after trying this for a day. My $1 / month trial Shopify account just set me up to get taken advantage of. If I automatically was charged $39 like it shows is the price then I would understand but this is 10x that.
I only used for a few hours and didn’t find Shogun to be intuitive unfortunately.
---Update - April 5, 2024---
Hi there, Jay, I appreciate you writing back, however, it looks like we have not heard back from you again. Could you check the email and reply back with the store details so that we can assist you further?
Thanks.
---------------------------------------
Hi there, Thanks for sharing your feedback here.
I am not able to locate your account or a support conversation about the same as the store name- My Store seems to be very generic.
However, I would like to let you know that app charges or subscription charges work based on billing cycles in Shopify. We offer 10 days of free trial and if the app is not required we recommend uninstalling the app before the trial period is over. If the app is not uninstalled, the recurring subscription starts automatically, that is how subscriptions work.
I see you suggested you tried the app for a day, but if the app was not uninstalled before the free cutoff period, you will be charged which is expected behavior. And, you will be charged based on the plan you selected while you uninstalled and started the trial.
If you reached out to our support team about this previously, could you reply back to us on that thread?
Having said that, as I am not able to locate your store details I wanted to check if you can reach out to our support team at support@getshogun.com?
Our support team will be happy to analyze the account and share further information to clear any doubts or misunderstandings here. And, we'll be happy to help with the charge.
We'll look forward to hearing back from you soon.
Thanks for your understanding.

Beware of the rating, a lot of false positive reviews! By far the worst experience we've had with any App on shopify.
We spent a lot of money and time on creating our product pages with Shogun, and Shogun later completely removed ALL the pages from our website!
And the customer support has been of no help other than assuring me "they can't do anything and they're really sorry".
Hi there,
Thank you for your review - I'm sorry to hear about the negative experience that you have had with Shogun.
When a store uninstalls Shogun we receive a request from Shopify to remove data that we store about the store - this is a requirement from Shopify to comply with GDPR data processing laws. We notify stores when this process is started to let them know that this process has begun and that their data will be removed in 14 days.
We have since rolled back on some of the data that is removed during the redaction process as we are aware of the inconvenience that this caused our customers who uninstalled during the period of first implementation and revision of this process (27th October 2020).

To restore these pages, you can reimport them into Shogun using the search bar at the top of your Shogun dashboard - provided they have not been deleted from Shopify manually.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
Karl | Team Lead, Technical Support
It's imperative that they ditch the 'Free Plan' option. It allows you to build pages without limit but it's useless because you can't actually do anything practical with them. As someone else mentioned it's like a game with no practical use. It's clearly a crude marketing ploy to lull you into doing so much set up work that when it's time to press go, there's nothing you can do. Lots of time wasted and the minimum cost is too restrictive for small businesses. Cheers lads.

HI again, Peter and Mattie. I see you haven't used our app in a while and I haven't heard back from you. I wanted to check here if everything is working fine and if it was possible to reply back to me via email.
Thanks!

Hi again, Peter and Mattie!
Thanks for writing back to me, Mattie. I appreciate the feedback you shared. It was good to communicate with you and we'll look forward to turning this negative experience into a positive one.
Myself and the support team is available to answer any questions you may have and we'll look forward to hearing back from you as you explore our app further.

-UPDATE-
19th June 2023
Hey, Peter, it looks like I spoke to the store owner, and we'd be happy to connect with the individual/user on the account who did use the app so that we can understand the concerns better and assist you further.
I have reached out via email and will appreciate it if you could reply back to me.
Thanks!
----------------------------------------
Hi, Peter! We appreciate the feedback.
I apologize if you feel the Free plan isn't practical or wasn't useful. I also appreciate you going through the other feedback. The free plan is a way to test the app and get a feel for the editor before you can decide to try and test more options and access more elements. The free does allow you to access pages and it comes with the ability to publish 1 page.
We also offer a further 10 days of the free trial on our paid plans. You can start the trial and explore the app and the elements further.
Having said that, I apologize for the inconvenience and I have reached out via email to understand the use case and answer the questions further.
Thanks and I'll be looking out for a reply via email

立ち上がらない事が多い。
一見良さそうなアプリだが、ぜんぜん良くない。 立ち上がらないなど、本来の目的を邪魔するアプリです。 早く他のアプリが出ないかと待ち望んでいます。

Right, I see I am not the only one that has been hoodwinked by this "free" plan option. To further compound to the mysery of this, I am also being charged a 2nd month re-occuring, despite not even using the app? Could you please get in touch and sort this on your end coz it's just embarrsing for you guys...

HI there, Dennis. I wanted to check if you are doing well. I also wanted to check if it was possible to reply back to our email conversation as I haven't heard back from you and it has been a while.
Thanks!
------------------------------------------
-UPDATE-
June 28th 2023
Hi again, Dennis! Thank you so much for connecting with me over a phone call. We really appreciate your taking the time and sharing your feedback. We apologize for all the misunderstanding and the inconvenience. However, we are glad that we were able to discuss this further with you and find a resolution.
I have followed up via email and I'll look forward to hearing back from you.
We greatly appreciate your continued support.
----------------------------------------------------
Hey there, Dennis! Thanks for sharing your feedback.
While I apologize for the inconvenience that has been caused, I wanted to let you know that my colleague reached out to you via email to explain this further.
It looks like your account started a 10-day trial for our Build plan. This was started on May 2nd. You upgraded from the Free plan to a trial of the paid Build plan at that time.
The Free plan and paid plans work differently.
After the 10-day free trial is activated, if the app is not uninstalled (considering you won't be using the app), the app must be uninstalled by the end of the 10-day trial period to avoid recurring monthly charges for paid app subscriptions.
However, since the app was not uninstalled until June 15, those recurring charges from Shopify occurred.
My team has shared further information in the email and they also tried to reach out to you via phone but were not able to connect with you.
I will be happy to assist you further if you can reply back to us.
Thanks!

Charging $39 USD although the app is uninstalled. That is insane. Let me remind you all that $39 is almost double the amount you give to shopify in total. Which is insane
Hey Christian- sorry to hear the frustration. To clarify, Shopify controls billing for all apps in the app store, including Shogun- we didn't initiate the charge. Of course, we will be glad to process a refund promptly. To address the price factor- most of our clients find that the $39/mo cost is significantly less than the cost of custom coding. If you're on a tight budget, we can make some recommendations for free apps that might better fit your use case. Our support team will email shortly to help facilitate the refund. Happy Holidays. - Nick (Cofounder, Shogun)
