Overall Satisfaction with Pagemodo

  • Opportunity to test the tool with a free trial that includes all of their core services
  • Fast plug and play templates if design isn't a high priority for you
  • Small business/startup pricing is available
  • More intuitive user experience when editing templates and pages
  • Better customer support, especially for trail customers who are just getting set up
  • More in-page explanations and tool-tips to help users help themselves.
  • Pagemodo did not have any positive impact on our ROI and it did not help me achieve my goal, which was to create dynamic and easily editable custom tabs for our two Facebook pages.
I hoped Pagemodo would enable me (the non-coding Community Manager) to build and manage custom tabs without assistance from our Development team. Unfortunately, to build a beautiful custom tab that is consistent with your brand identity, you will need to use CSS. Additionally, I saw a number of tech bugs, most of which were never resolved (for example I would enter text into an allotted box, but it wouldn't appear on my page). Customer support provided no help.
I gave Pagemodo a solid try but it just wasn't a good tool. There are a lot of great alternatives out there. I deactivated our Pagemodo account and began using ShortStack to achieve our goal. I cannot say enough GOOD things about ShortStack!

If you are considering using Pagemodo, use ShortStack instead... you can thank me later :)
