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.

I am relatively new to this app. So far so good! The only thing I don't like is that I have to login to the app in order for my chat status to show "online."

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.

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

I didn't realize that building landing pages could be this intuitive and easy. I have been using Zipify until now and Shogun is just more fluid and feature-rich. Wow.

I recently had a technical issue with the Shogun app, and I reached out to their support team for help. I have to say, I was really impressed by their quick response and willingness to go above and beyond to resolve my issue. The support agent I worked with was extremely knowledgeable and patient with me, and they even took the time to provide me with some helpful tips and tricks to make the most of the app's features. Overall, I am very pleased with the level of support I received from Shogun and would highly recommend their app to anyone looking for a powerful and user-friendly page builder, backed by an excellent support team.

I had written a very positive review before but now I take one start back. The reason is the very poor ability of this app to create decent blog posts. Now that I've had experience with this app I can tell you that it works wonderfully for landing pages and product pages. But it is extremely poor at making a simple blog post page - the elements are not able to go full width so on a desktop/tablet screen everything appears very narrow. Author is not displayed well, social sharing buttons not displayed properly, lots of little issues. For something as simple as a blog post, I expected not to have these issues - now I'm wasting a lot of time on this and it's frustrating. The email support is very fast but so far unhelpful because the app is missing basic blog creation functionality.
