“I'm always having to re-edit something because they messed about with the code. Functionality keeps changing, images go missing, and you can't copy designs to another page. I cannot justify the cost for the amount of issues. I don't feel like a valued customer.”

“It’s taking me days to do a job that should have been a day at the most. Horribly user-unfriendly app, very unintuitive.”

“App worked fine for a few weeks and now the page I created no longer loads. These things happen, but their customer service is absolutely awful.”

“Support fails to support you in your issues, hard to understand and no clear communication on when, how or if things are going to be fixed. We are losing revenue every day and support does not seem to have any sort of haste or motivation to fix it.”

The Smind Sections are a cost-effective addition to any theme. I setup my page with a Smind Theme and 4 different headers, all works really well. Helen from the support team helps me a lot on every time.

It allowed us to design a much more attractive store with a better chance of selling. Easy to use and integrate into the theme. It adapts perfectly to both PC and mobile, overcoming the natural limitations of Shopify themes.

There was a technical problem that made me very nervous. I was almost ready to give up on the app even though I really like it as a feature. It gives a lot of design freedom, and you don't have to buy expensive themes...
