Great customer service from Laura. We use this app for our wine auctions and it works well for us. If we ever have a problem the team is always very helpful and quick to respond. Thank you Laura
Great app! Very easy to set up and use. It integrates well into the system. Combining winning bids by one customer would be very beneficial.
App shows a "Free" option and a monthly subscription option. Signed up thinking I would try out the free option for a month or two, but the app automatically signed me up for the subscription after a week. The app was ok, but didn't draw enough interest in users to make it worth it for my business. I messaged to cancel my subscription. Tipo reps just asked for access to my account, and never cancelled the account, so I kept getting charged. Tipo did eventually get back to me and corrected the subscription and refunded charges spent, so that was good of them to follow up and correct it.
This would be a good app if you are able to keep up with creating and marketing your auctions, but it's not good if you aren't willing to put in a good amount of work behind it yourself. I probably wouldn't recommend trying it out unless you are ready to put in the time to take full advantage of the services. Some day I will revisit the app when I'm ready spend more time focusing on it.
The app looks really slick, and works well most of the time. Support has been responsive to issues and questions I've had. It REALLY needs a way for customers to combine winning bids into one order though. Also, with our use case at least, we like to stagger the ending times of our auctions by 5-10 minutes so people can finish bidding on one item, and start last-minute bidding on the next. To accomplish this, I currently have to make a whole new auction for EVERY item, which gets really time consuming. It would be really nice if there could be a "stagger ending times by X minutes" check box, so I could only setup one auction with all the items, and it would stagger the endings for me.
The app is easy to install and run. I ran into a couple of things that needed a few tweeks but Tipo Support was responsive and fixed them right away. I would like to see an easier navigation of products in the backend of the app but the front end is very nice. One other item for the wish list would be the option to display the current bid price on the collections page. Overall we really like this app and continue to use it for our regular weekly auctions.
Bit of a rocky start but eventually figured it out. The design is sleek and it's easy to use, so I'm hoping this is just an off week for them. I wish the bid showed on the collections page though so it was more integrated with other products
good support
