Ardy was great and extremely helpful. Viral Sweep was very easy to use and Ardy helped me setup my first giveaway when I had zero prior experience.

Leila has been great to work with and Viral Sweep makes it so easy to manage giveaways. Highly recommended.

A great app, and the people behind it care to make it work.

Great customer support. Billie was especially helpful.
— rom&nd
We ran a small giveaway and couldn’t have asked for a better app. Setup was flawless, the support team was awesome, and everything worked exactly the way we needed it to. If you’re running any kind of giveaway, this is the app to use.
— TacticalElites
They have a great supportive team behind, and will help you troubleshoot literally anything you are having trouble with! 5 stars! great software
— MADE FX
Incredible product support. Billie helped me with my promotion to ensure it was set up and working 100% prior to our launch date, the landing page, confirmation emails; post purchase actions she helped implement everything and when I had problems she was able to jump in and fix these promptly. We have used viralsweep for many of our giveaways and cannot recommend enough.
— Aimrite International
Very good customer support, ran into some issues and they were awesome working us through them.
— Kitchen Blockers
ViralSweep has been an absolute game changer for us. The platform is powerful, easy to use, and makes running giveaways so easy. What really stood out though was the customer service! Billie went above and beyond. She was incredibly patient, thorough, and genuinely cared about helping us get everything set up perfectly. Every question was answered with clarity and kindness and nothing ever felt to...

Always fast to respond and super helpful. Incredible service and app.
— Beckah Shae
This has been a great app and the customer service is second to none
— Outback Fencing and Steel Supplies
It worked fine as advertised. However, when I placed it in archive mode to pay a reduced fee it reverted back to full price and I ended up getting charged hundreds of dollars each year until I caught it in an audit. Be very careful!
— Carnivero
Overly complicated to setup, overpriced, the base $49 plan really doesn't get you much...so your next option is $199. I'm sure it's a good app, but it's ridiculously complicated and for the money, their are far better options.
— NOMADYN
The basic version does not support custom code. The customer service team's response time is very slow, so I upgraded to the Business version. I provided feedback multiple times regarding adjustments to the form and voting styles (to better support a user-friendly experience), but the responses I received were basically all "We have forwarded your feedback to our technical team, and I will reply...
— TESSAN
EDITED: Viral sweep is great. We are on our 6th sweepstakes and they get it right every time. If i have a problem they will hop on zoom with you and fix anything you need. They are great - Coming back to change my review this is not the company it once was. Customer Service is almost non existent when it comes to solving problems - there is people to talk to but they have no idea whats going on an...

PLEASE READ!!! Do not get sucked in by all those 5 star ratings. We've spent over $20,000 with viral sweep over the last 4-5 years, they are ZERO and I MEAN ZERO HELP, when it comes to having a problem. I reached out about a single issue maybe 10 times in the last year of their post entry page not giving a count for our customers and they just sent me in circles to find out no one was doing anythi...

- Integrates very poorly with Shopify. - Web app is a bit glitchy when trying to edit/preview changes - Certain ViralSweep features that are advertised as being part of a plan are not actually full supported by Shopify and cannot be used. I read the (already extremely complicated) marketing documentation in advance to figure out what ViralSweep platform could/couldn't do. I then paid for a sub...

I have given too much. Guys don't fall for this app. Neither their customer support have any idea about the product and nor the app. Sometimes it works, and next time it stops working. And every time you reach to customer support they send you screenshot of their manuals as if we entrepreneurs are illiterate. I have taken Business plan and my god, last 1 week has been a hell for me. I have to expl...
— TiazTrove
Stay away from this app. You can't even export the contacts one by one unless you want to upgrade to a 300+ a month plan. Plenty of other options out there that works best for small companies.
