Being forced up upgrade to a $100 plan is ridiculous. I laterally just need to update 1 page but rather than pay the original $40, i'll be paying $0 and going someplace else.
Thanks for taking the time and leaving us a review here, Jenae.
We appreciate the feedback.
I am sorry to hear that you felt you were forced to upgrade. I wanted to share some details here.
Looking at the account I see Shogun was uninstalled on July 25, 2023. This is when your account was subscribed to our old plan. That old plan was a legacy plan that had been deprecated a long time ago. As the app was uninstalled, this legacy plan got canceled as well.
You reinstalled Shogun again on November 16, 2023 and our pick-a-plan page displayed the new plans that can be activated which would be the expected behavior.
I could not locate a recent support conversation about the questions you may have had with respect to the plans, but I have reached out to you via email to share more information.
I'll look forward to hearing back from you.

I'd give 0 stars if I could
Shogun is slow and you have to update a page manually one at a time. It's extremely painful to make any changes, let alone make a single small change across all pages.
The app has decided to double its costs recently, making it completely prohibitive for any business trying to scale.
SUMMARY: SAVE YOUR MONEY, HIRE A DEV, OR USE ANOTHER APP. You will simply get no value in this app
Hey there, Eric. Thanks for taking the time and sharing your feedback.
I am sorry to hear that your experience hasn't been a positive one.
I wasn't able to locate a conversation with respect to the slowness you were facing, but our features such as bulk publishing, theme sections, and global snippets are used by our users to make changes across multiple pages.
Having said that, we do change and update the pricing for our plans, which is normal behavior. Your account was subscribed to our legacy plan and that plan is no longer offered. We don't force our users to move away from their grandfathered legacy plans. However, if you uninstall or reinstall the app, the legacy plan will be lost. This is something our support team explained further via email. There isn't a way to activate that deprecated plan again.
I see you have since uninstalled the app, however, I also see you had been installed for a while with us and I apologize if you felt there was no value.
I also see you are in touch with our team to get some further assistance and our team, as always is more than happy to help you.

Don't use this app. Find something else.
The app worked fine until they moved all the standard features to only be available in higher plans.
Image quality is an issue now on the main plan.
They want you to jump from $39/month to $99/month.
Embarassing for a SaaS company to act this way. I hope a lot of people cancel and move to more affordable competitors.
Buggy app and doesn't function well with most themes and there's no chat support.
Hey there, Paras. Thanks for taking the time and sharing your feedback with us.
I am sorry to hear that you faced issues while using Shogun.
I think I was in a conversation with you previously with respect to your Shogun plan. I requested to reinstall the app so I could assist you further with the plan, however, I didn't hear back from you.
That was the only support conversation I could locate. Having said that, if there was something buggy with the editor we would love to gather additional information so that we can resolve the same for you.
As far as the themes are concerned, while Shogun works and is compatible with all the themes, we do recommend checking the themes from the Shopify theme store.
Also, we don't have the chat support on our base plan. Our chat support is available on specific plans, but our email support is equally fast.
Having said that, I can understand the concerns and I'll be happy to understand the issue with the app or the theme further. I reached out via email so that I can connect with you further. I haven't heard back from you yet. I also tried to reach you via phone but wasn't able to connect.
If you could reply back to me I will be happy to assist you further.
Thanks for your support and understanding.

Customized my store all of last week, suddenly this week, the price has tripled.
I panicked and uninstalled the app, now I can't install it back to "unpublish" all of the code that Shogun injected on various files of my site. Lovely.
Very bad experience all around, don't recommend.
Hey there, Daniel. Thanks for taking the time and leaving this review and sharing your feedback.
I was looking at your account and could see you seem to have been working on 3 pages and reverted them. You then seem to uninstall the app while the account was subscribed to our old plan citing the old plan to be expensive.
Our team works on updating pricing and plans as a normal process, however, when the app is uninstalled the old plan is canceled which is why when you reinstalled the app you noticed the new plans. Your account is on trial with a couple of days left in the trial.
Also, my colleague reached out to help you with the Shogun code removal. This is added as expected behavior as well. However, you don't need to have the app installed to remove our code. Please accept the collab access request so that we can help with the removal of the code.
Apologies for the experience and the misunderstanding here.
Thanks for trying Shogun.

They double charged me, last November I uninstalled and they still charged me. My store was deactivated because of multiple reasons. I just paid my bill to reactivate and of course they charged me again without even being installed. BEWARE!!!!
Hi there! Thanks for taking the time and leaving us this review and sharing your feedback.
It looks like there seems to be some misunderstanding here about how the app charges work.
I see I was already in touch with you to understand these charges so I could help you further. While I did explain why you noticed these charges, I wanted to share the information here as well.
The app charges work based on the store's billing cycles in Shopify. If the app is installed, the monthly charges continue to work as usual based on the subscription plan that is active on the account. We always recommend our users to uninstall the app if the app is not required. This helps to ensure you are not charged further.
This is also true when you close or pause your store with Shopify. The store was closed on December 9, 2022 without our app being uninstalled, then reopened on August 3, 2023. When the store reopened, the subscription charges were unfrozen. The app was correctly uninstalled on August 3, 2023. This means any pending charge would be processed when the store is reopened.
However, I reached out via email to discuss and learn more about the charges in question so we could help you with them.
I'll really appreciate it if you could reply back to me on that thread and I'll make sure we can help resolve this and clear the misunderstanding here.
My sincere apologies for the inconvenience. I'll look forward to hearing back from you.

This app is absolute trash and they have no customer support.
---UPDATE---
Hi again, Archer! I hope you are doing well.
I wanted to check if you received my last message via email.
I also tried to reach out to you via phone and wasn't able to connect. I did leave a voice message but haven't heard back from you.
I'll be glad to assist you further with the questions and the issues if you could reply back to me.

Hey there, Archer! Thanks for leaving us a review and sharing your feedback with us.
I am sorry to hear that your experience with Shogun and the support team hasn't been a positive one. I'll be more than happy to assist you and understand the issues further.
It looks like there has been some misunderstanding here. I was going through the support conversations and our team has responded to every question right away. However, I suspect our replies were not received at the email address you used to reach out to us. This can happen is the email service provider is blocking the domain or if the replies end up in the spam folder.
I have reached out via email in a separate thread and I will try and connect via phone to learn about the pain points further. We are always happy to assist our users and we'd surely like to turn this experience around.
Please let me know if you receive my email and I'll look forward to resolving the issues for you. Thanks for your support.

Be careful, this company makes it really difficult to unsubscribe and like to keep charging you even if you unsubscribe. Scam subscribe and unsubscribe methods like Amazon Prime... BE WARNED!

Thanks!

Hey again! I see we received a couple of emails about this and I reached out on both to connect someone from the BCF team, but I haven't heard back yet.
Would it be possible to reply back to me so that we can connect further and I can assist you better with the use case?
I'll be looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

Hey there! I just saw this 1-star review you left for us and I wanted to reach out and check if there is something I can help you with while trying to make sure we can turn your negative experience into a positive one.
I am sorry to hear that you feel it is difficult to unsubscribe and that you are being charged. Please note that recurring app charges work based on your billing cycle in Shopify and if you don't wish to use Shogun and if you would like to cancel the subscription you are free to uninstall our app from your Shopify account.
I see you uninstalled the app from your account on June 9, 2023.
I also see we had no prior communication or conversation about this matter from you and I just noticed that you have reached out to us via email to discuss this further.
I am going to reply back to you and hopefully we can assist you further to clear the doubts. I'll look forward to hearing back from you via email.

No actual free plan, you're tricked into downloading it only to be brought to a page to give them money.
Can't even see if their templates might be fit for my store, not a super good business model to say you can try it out for free when you're instantly hit with a paywall. That's definitely a false advertising move.
Hi there! I appreciate you taking the time and writing this review while also sharing your feedback with us.
We do offer a Free plan which is available for users and stores who are installing Shogun for the first time as the plan is more of a way to test the app and the editor. However, looking at your account, I see our app was installed 3 months ago, on 2023-05-09 and the Build plan was activated. The app was then uninstalled and reinstalled again on August 1, 2023, which is why you didn't see the Free plan option since the Build plan was the last plan activated on the account.
I can understand the frustration here and I'll be happy to look into this further for you.
I have reached out to you via email and would appreciate it if you would reply back to me. Thanks for your support.

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!

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!
