Awesome app, great functionality, and fast and reliable service. I couldn't recommend them more!

— Hamre Forge

I've been using this app for quite a while now and it's useful. Simple to set up and the support is also very good.

— Pragmasis

Great support.

— Dream Weaver Canada

Great customer support. We had issues with our theme and they responded promptly and solved the problem. Thanks team!

— MIKOH

The Spur It App works very well. The pop up option allows for email input on the product screen. Restock email comes up soon after the item is back in stock.

— Zala Design

This app is super easy to use. The response time when needing help is super fast. Ilya fixed our issue straight away. Highly recommend.

— Whats Your Team

The UI can use some improvements. An option to import subscribers from a CSV file would be nice, but the overall very useful app and great customer service.

— PIPOLLI

What anyone wants in an app is configurability. The developer does not have to worry about meeting your needs because whatever it is you want to change, you can easily change yourself. I contacted them today and Alexander sent me nice directions to make the changes so the Back in Stock app looks exactly as I want it. I cannot think of anything I would want to change. Every website should have this...

— Rosemary's Garden

The app has proved extremely useful to us, and has helped loads of our customers during the busiest time of year for us - it definitely reduces the amount of work we do to keep users up to date with stock on popular items. Any issues that we have had have been ironed out extremely quickly - the last one sorted within an hour and a half from first contact; and that is not something that happens ver...

— Brushwood Toys

Great app! Amazing support-- fast responses to resolve all issues! highly recommended :) Currently use this app for 2 of our shopify stores!

— Health Ranger Store

I use Back in Stock to create a waitlist for when my classes are full. At least one student always drops at the last minute; having a waitlist means I can easily fill that slot and not lose out on a sale. The support team is great: quick to reply and very accommodating.

— Allied Woodshop

This is an excellent app that does what it says and is relatively easy to set up. It is backed up by a fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable team of engineers and customer service staff who really put the customer first and they go above and beyond to help the customer with fast, efficient service. I use other SpurIT apps too and find them to be similarly excellent. A+ rating from me!

— Dolce Italiana

The app didnt work, it was producing the popup even when the variant that was out of stock was NOT selected. I put in a ticket and it was answered quickly, but told to wait 24 hours whilst dev looked at it. They then came back to me saying it was a problem with the java script of my theme, bit of an irony as the app description claims it works with ANY theme! Ok so that was not such a big problem,...

— Girls.co.uk

Terrible communication and customer service. Pushed out an update earlier this week, which seemed to break the app. Whenever we tried to get through, it would either give a 501 error, say that there is an "Internal Error", or just never load. Contacted customer service both on email and their phone line -- the phone line was no help, and on email it seemed like they didn't even read it as their "s...

— Quayusa

Crashed and sent out blank emails when we restocked one of our highly sought after products. Costed us tons of lost money

— Blacklist Industries

An amazing support team, instant replies, full follow-ups on needed customizations and the app has never caused issues.

— Altenew

Their support is amazing. They helped us to resolve many queries instantly. Recommended to others. Thanks for this great app :)

— Goldspot Pens

We've been using this app for a few years now. It does what it claims without issue. The support has also been quite fast, we are happy with what we've paid for. 1 thing that we like to see improvements is that we can manage the notification for a customer and search for the customer instead of going through a lot of pages
