Reviews

This is good

ta007403 June 18, 2024

I am OK with this plugin

Caused critical error

jon102 February 6, 2024

Firstly was forced to give a reason for deactivation. upon deactivation it caused a critical error of the website.

Won’t allow deactivation

bakerd January 19, 2024

Goes to a window that DEMANDS a response, but when you click on “Deactivate” nothing happens! Very shoddy programming.

Slow website

dominoevers September 7, 2023

After we installed the plugin, it took about 3-4 seconds to put in cart. When choosing another plugin for pickup – the website ran fast again, and it only took 1 second to put product in cart.Another thing was, that the settings keept changing and we had to setup it up again couple of times.

good

STAY AWAY! DISHONEST! Doesn’t work and refuses refund. NEVER BUY! ALERT!!

r00tsbread May 23, 2023

I purchased the plug in. It didn’t work for starters. The UI/UX was horrid. And they couldn’t even spell Wednesday and mandatory correctly. I asked for a refund. This was their response: “”Refund request is only accepted when– the said features(as described on product description) did not worked for you anyway.and– the support team does not resolve the issue within the timeline they promisedand– Support team is unable to resolve your issue on default theme and with the plugins uninstalled that may conflicts with our plugin(s).”So, forward your wp admin access and show us your issue. Support team will check your issues.” First–no way am I’m giving these guys access to the back end. SECOND . . . Any plug in the THEIR plug in doesn’t work with has to be uninstalled?? Including the theme? When the app hasn’t been updated in FIVE months and isn’t even tested with the latest wordpress version?? Essential in their “terms on service” they can uninstall ALL plugins, show that their plug in “does what they say” no matter how horrid it is and refuse a refund even if you’ve only had it for 45 minutes and found a plug in that actually works. STAY FAR FAR AWAY! Do not deal with this developer.
