This used to be an excellent app and I used it for several years successfully, but around March 2022 it completely changed, the dashboard changed, I stopped receiving notifications when customers replied to messages, so they ended up being unreplied to. Chat support replies also weren't sent to my email so I didn't know when support had replied. Something has become seriously broken with this app and I can no longer recommend it. Too bad as it was very effective before it was changed.

I love this app, it has really helped my business to grow. I love how it wins the customers back! I was afraid to use the app at first, but I'm glad I did. The customer support is amazing!
Thanks for your review!
I took a look at your messages and have a couple suggestions/comments:
1) First, great job replying to your responses. Most merchants just ignore the SMS responses. But I see you're going the extra mile by replying and giving advice to your customers on how to use the products. If you're not already, you can just email-reply to the email notification about the response, and that will get sent off as a text to the customer
2) You're already getting a great ROI, but if you wanted to save some money, you don't need to have product images in all 3 of your abandoned cart messages. The reason for this is that your shopper gets texted from the same number each time. And so they'll see the abandoned product image on the 1st message, and then the subsequent messages can just be text since they'll be in the same thread as the 1st message on their phone.
Each product image counts as 2 message credits, so you can save yourself 4 credits if you disable the product image on the 2nd and 3rd abandoned cart message.
3) I took the liberty of cutting down your 1st abandoned cart message, so that it fits within 160 characters. This will save you a message credit :)
Hi {FIRST_NAME}, it's Ebony's Beauty Hair&Skin. Still want {PRODUCT}? Get it here {CHECKOUT_LINK} Reply STOP to unsubscribe
4) Finally you're including a discount code in your abandoned cart messages, which is great. It gets automatically populated at checkout for your shoppers that click on the link. However you're not mentioning it in your message. Your shoppers are more likely to click the link if they know a coupon is waiting for them at that link :)
This is the second app I have used from Joe and it doesn't disappoint. The headaches of abandoned carts are in the past!! Super customizable, sends photos of items left behind and everything. This app has been a life saver and I'm so glad I decided to install it. Get to installing y'all!
Thanks for your kind review! I hope you don't mind me sharing that the app has generated 300+ sales for you already from both abandoned cart recoveries and post-purchase winback messages!
Would love to see you send a campaign to a segment like customers. You can use one of our prebuilt segments like customers who bought without using a discount code. Happy to walk you through it over a zoom call sometime if you'd like
At first, I used this app just to target customers who abandoned their checkout, and it worked perfectly. After that Joe contacted me and informed me about the campaign option. I launched two campaigns until now and the results are mind-blowing.
I definitely recommend Winback as it helped us a lot in recovering abandoned checkouts and maintaining a great customer relationship with our customers.
Thanks for your review. Happy to see the app is crushing it for you! I crunched some numbers, and looks like it's responsible for 8.5% of your overall sales.
That's great! And I think we can get you up to a full 10% lift in sales if you turn on the winback feature as well. This will send a sequence of messages to customers who purchased. And just like abandoned carts, it will stop if the customer comes back to buy again.
You can set it to trigger on order date or fulfillment date. Let me know if you want me to turn it on for you?
This app is a no-brainer, especially with email not working as well anymore. We set up abandoned cart flow of 2 SMS messages and recovered 7 sales in the first 6 days. Love that it includes product image as well. Really easy to use. Highly recommended.
And now you're at 27 sales within 10 days :) And your winback (post-purchase messages haven't even gone out yet!)
Thanks for the review. Yes the product image is helpful, although it does incur an extra fee for the MMS.
Sorry that the messages to Australia are more expensive. Carriers outside the US and Canada charge a lot more per message, and we unfortunately have to pass some of those costs on. However your ROI is still through the roof! (almost 100X so far)
App has gotten better. Receiving help from new manager is great. He does a great job of reaching out to the customers, guiding how to use the app to the best of the businesses capability. I'd recommend.

Thanks again for your support.
I actually really like this app and it has helped us with abandoned sales and as a great check-in with customers after they purchased....BUT you do need to check your responses and text people back. So it's great for customer interaction, but in turn, you also need/want to manually text/re-engage your customers. So it's a new task added to the daily customer service.
I am not really sure how it stacks up to other text marketing options but I do know this one is very easy and straightforward. And mainly, I felt compelled to write this review because I was blown away when the developer sent a customized video on my account/sales performance and which settings I should change to make it better. That is something you don't see often. I followed his recommendations exactly and it's working. I added the app to all 3 of my stores (Canada, US, Europe), so I guess I am a mega user.
Drawbacks: It would be nice for a little more customization. Right now on the abandoned sales capture, it shows a really distorted version of our logo which I really hate so I'm still working on fixing that. But the text function is a great funnel that works quite well.
I would probably rate a 4/5 but with the customized service, It deserves a 5. And who knows, maybe the developer will even read this and help me fix my distorted logo!

The app is helpful, but the customer service is really really bad, the one Named "Joe" never helped anyting, yes, you sent an email to him, the first time he replied, and then if you asked for some help, they never reply. you have to contacted them time and time, he should be fired right now!! this waster so much time. report you, if i find a better SMS app, i won't use this right away

I am extremely happy to recommend this app. It has already generated over $2,000 in extra revenue!
Thanks! Hopefully this is just the beginning of your extra revenue. We will keep pushing for more!
This app has been a game changer. My customers don't open our emails. But SMS is a completely different beast. Whenever I send a campaign out, I see an instant spike in traffic and sales. I was skeptical of the app's 35X ROAS claim. But we are well above that just by using their templates and defaults.
