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.

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.

Price increase from 39 to 99 USD? This is ridiculous. We just use it or rather used it for a couple of pages. We will now switch to an alternative.
Hi there, Benjamin. Thanks for leaving us a review and sharing your feedback.
We have indeed changed our plans and pricing a bit. However, I feel there is some misunderstanding here.
Your account is still subscribed to our old/legacy plan and we are not forcing you to upgrade your plan. You can continue to be on the same old plan until you have the app installed. If you uninstall the app or upgrade, you will lose the legacy plan you have when it won't be possible to downgrade back to the old plan.
However, as I suggested, we are not forcing you to change the plan. You can continue to use it while the app is installed.
I tried to connect via phone but that went to voice mail. I have reached out via email and I would appreciate it if you could reply to me should you have any questions or doubts.

対応が早く親切。英語表示なのと、スマホとパソコンの見え方が異なり、その調整が難しいので★4つにしています。
Quick and friendly response. I give it a 4 because it is displayed in English and the way it looks on my phone and computer is different, and it is difficult to adjust for that.
Thank you so much for taking the time and leaving us a review.
We greatly appreciate the feedback and your support.
If there's anything you are facing an issue with when it comes to the design our support team would love to assist and resolve that for you.
Our team is available 24/7 and we'll look forward to hearing back from you.

Shogun ‑ Landing Page Builder
So throughout time Shopify has improved their landing page/theme configurator quite a bit to where add ons like this aren't necessarily needed anymore to build a terrific-looking ecommerce site. That said, Shogun is still, by far, the quickest and easiest way to drag-and-drop your way to a beautiful website. It appears that, with Shopify having a better theme editor, they are focusing more on allowing multivariate (A/B) testing for conversion rate optimization, SEO, etc.
If they had a 'lite' version that was $20 a month for those of us who like to do a quick-and-dirty change, that'd be well worth it. But the reason for the 3-stars is simply one problem: value. For small businesses who need to tightly control their costs there has to be a lot of value for almost $70/month. By the time one were to spend $2k/month for Shopify Plus, there are a better range of alternatives (like optimizely) for landing page optimization, so I'm not sure that the product fits on the upper end of the price scale.
I'm uninstalling it for now and will keep an eye out for the Dev to have the stripped down page building function as a standalone and I'd be re-subscribing if it's affordable. But as-is, it's not.
Hi there, Jason. Thanks for taking the time to test Shogun and also leaving this feedback. We greatly appreciate this as we value your feedback.
We are glad to hear that you recognize Shogun to be the quickest and easiest way to drag and drop your way to create beautiful designs. Thanks.
We were a “page builder” for a long time; however, we’ve expanded our offering to include core optimization features, including AB Testing, Targeted Experiences (personalize content to audience), SEO tools for keyword discovery, AI-assisted blog generation, and page performance monitoring.
While the entry plan pricing has increased, we’ve also added features, including our AI page designer, AI text generation features, and grid-based editing. The page limit has also been increased on our entry plan to 35 pages and we have removed page limits for any plan higher than the new Build plan.
We have removed the user seat limits which means there are unlimited seats and there are unlimited theme sections as well on all the plans to offer more value.
As I suggested, we sincerely appreciate your feedback and understand your perspective. I am also happy to share the same with the team.
Candidly, if you’re looking solely for a “page build” function, we may not be the best-fit solution as we've expanded our focus beyond that to provide a suite of tools. However, if you're looking to optimize your storefront and set yourself up for success, Shogun is the answer.
We'll be happy to work on your feedback and we'll look forward to serving you again in the future. Thanks for trying Shogun.

The customer support is good, the the app itself is pretty bad. Very hard to build landing pages, poor navigation, brutal formatting for mobile.
overall not great
Hi there, Pierce. Thanks for leaving us a review and sharing your feedback.
I was going through the conversations you had with our team and I apologize if you felt Shogun wasn't a good fit for your requirements. Would you be able to help us more when you refer to the app being hard to build landing pages with issues for mobile formatting? Our team will be happy to analyze the use case and ensure we can work on your suggestions.
I see you were looking to create a form and connect the same with a third-party form app/service. For such instances, it is best to embed the form directly from the form service as suggested by the team. The embed form is not something you can control using Shogun, but our HTML element will populate what is pasted there.
However, let us know if you decide to try Shogun again. We'll be happy to assist and answer your questions.

Uninstalled the App and got charged nonetheless.
Hi there!
Thanks for your feedback!
We wouldn't expect you to have been charged if you uninstalled the app while you were still in the trial period.
Unfortunately, we no longer have your email, as it was redacted (standard procedure on uninstallation). Could you send us an email to support@getshogun.com referencing this? Then, we can look into and resolve this issue for you.
We are looking forward to hearing from you!
