We are using Growave for our Shopify stores, for the following functions:<br><br>1. Customers Reviews <br>2. Customer Loyalty points <br>3. Shoppable Instagram feed<br><div><br>It helps us to build a more loyal customer base<br> </div>
  • Growave first seeks to understand the question before they take action
  • Quick response - Growave always responses within a couple of hours
Cons
  • They could improve their e-mail functionalilty. It is difficult to improve the look and feel of their e-mails
See the examples mentioned earlier. Growave offers a single system that can be used for multiple purposes. And their customer support is great.

At last! A Shopify App that Delivers and a Team that Supports

Growave adds extra useful functionality to our eCommerce Shopify site which allows us to automatically request and post reviews from customers and also we use the Shoppable Instagram feed on our home page - there are other functions in the package that we subscribe to but these are the main ones. We used to subscribe to a more expensive reviews company where we used to feel like just another client, but Growave despite being based in another country feels much more like a partner agency when we need to use them for advice or support.
  • Support - They respond to emails quickly and professionally.
  • Coding - They are Shopify experts and will also try to find a solution to a request.
  • They are also cost effective meaning we are able to progress with development of our site without the high cost some other agencies charge.
Cons
  • As a 3rd party software they are not as integrated into Google Shopping as other more established review sites however they are working to ensure that our reviews appear in our Google Shopping campaign.
For SME's who use Shopify they are the best developers and provide the best support of any paid app that we have.

A Great App!

I added Growave to my shop over 6 months ago. The interface is very customizable and easy to use. The team at Growave has been one of the best I've worked with when it comes to support. They're always available, quick to respond, and very helpful. I've requested a handful of small tasks specific to my storefront and they helped me with a fix or customization for all of them. I'm very happy with the app!
  • Great Customer Service
  • Open Minded to Customer Feedback and Requests
  • Easily Integrates to Website
  • Love the Shopable Instagram Feature
Cons
  • The in-app apps (on the back end) aren't all consistent on how they are laid out and the options/settings.
  • I'd like to see a more in depth connection to social media. Specifically Instagram. It would be great to be able to ask site visitors for their social media handles at the same time that they input their email when they create an account.
I use Growave for their rewards program (point system) and their shoppable Instagram feature specifically. Growave does not have email marketing functionality or customer-specific product targeting which would be a nice addition.

Great software!

The software is very well developed, intuitive and thought for the end customer. We have user the full functionality of the Growave package on our site, and it has made a huge difference for our business. The Social Shop Wave feature has enabled us to increase our sales channels and conversion rate.
  • Intuitive.
  • Service.
Growave very good for eCommerce and sales where you want users to engage quickly with content and news.

Growave has been working wonderfully for SWIFF - makes our site as fresh as our product.

We use Growave for their loyalty/rewards, referral, Instagram, and reviews functionality. We felt that having all of this info through the same app was valuable. Moreover, the Growave team has been incredibly helpful in customizing certain modules for our specific needs and brand. So far all interactions have been positive and we receive quick feedback and assistance. We still are collecting data on the monetary value to our company, but holistically it has added great value and accessibility for our customers.
  • Customization
  • Rapid turnaround
  • very helpful
Cons
  • Some integrations with Shopify 2.0 require customization
  • Some language or grammar in their default replies might not be perfect English but are easily customized
  • We do not use the wishlist app yet, so cannot comment on that
It is very valuable for loyalty programs, shoppable Instagram, and referrals. Although we enjoy the reviews portion too, there are other apps that offer just that. The main advantage is that it bundles all of these things into a single app, with a single point of contact, with a single set of customization, etc.
