  • Worst Customer Support

    By Support is crap
    There is no contact phone number for any help. No chat. You are on your own. If stars could go negative, it would be minus 5
  • Deceptive Patterns

    2
    By Koda Nico
    When you open the app it makes it seem like you have to subscribe. It seems like a nice app, but I'm uninstalling for the deceptive pattern alone, since that says a lot about the company's values.
  • Pick a Pricing Model and Honor It

    It's fine if you need to switch to a subscription model to be profitable, but I bought this app a while ago with the intention of it being a one-time purchase and it feels like every feature needs an upgrade. There are apps like Affinity by Serif that charge to upgrade but they're VERY upfront about that when you purchase. Also they release major updates pretty rarely so it's not very often that you need to deal with it, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, if I'm still on v1.9, I can have v1.9 downloaded on my computer. I'm not constantly clicking on features that I don't have access to and being prompted to upgrade. Now here we are all these years later and I'm not going to pay the "one-time-fee" to upgrade to version 5 because I have absolutely no reason to trust that you won't release v6 in a few months leaving me to deal with the same thing. This had all the potential in the world to be a really useful app but the pricing model feels confused and disjointed. Just decide what you want to do, stick with it, and honor the commitments you made to people who purchased your software in the past. That means if you're not willing to maintain a separate product for people on the previous version, then the proper thing to do is grant lifetime license holders a license to the current software, not make it unusable by stuffing in new "premium" features that are basically unavoidable.
  • The best!!

    Been using Sparkle for years. Does what I need and uber-fast. The developer is incredibly responsive. 10 stars!
  • USELESS

    1
    By Hassaan Abdeen
    So I had to upgrade to use the AI features, and ended up with the following: 1) One day not recognizing the purchase and nonstop asking me to upgrade to use the AI features. 2) Next day it recognized the purchase, but: a) the AI generated website was useless, that I had to change everything. b) once done I tested/previewed the website on a mobile screen and it turned to be scrambled. Unsubscribed and asked for a refund... don't fall for this App. The AI is dumber than a noob web designer.
  • Amazing program - even better support

    By SRESD)@#E
    This program make it easy to make the website you want, without having to know coding. The simplicity is amazing. The suport level offered, even more so. Speedy replies and great forums make it easy to figure it out or resolve an issue. Highly recommended.
  • Can't review what is locked

    By sircoolio
    I can't tell if this is a great application or not because most of the functionality is locked behind an immediate required upgrade to Personal or Pro. Poor form on the developer's part, IMHO
  • Revised my review - turns out a lot of those bugs were user error

    By S11Gjazz
    So in my previous review, my frustration with my own urgency and lack of skill got the better of me. This is a gooid program. Many good features. I am stil getting the hang of it, and I couldn't give it 5 stars because a couple features i was really counting on I haven't been able to get to work yet (like privacy policy page, so I can track visitors). And also because it is not quite as easy to use as I had hoped - but that's because there are many good features. So there is a learning curve. Support is good and patient, but you may have to email them directly instead of using the form on their website.
  • Very Disappointed

    By MEDS777
    Why do you want my "Login Keychain password" to allow me to access full features??? We started witht he app with no access to any of my privacy(ies), now you want almost everything... Not happy with this update 👎🏻
  • Frustrating Broken App

    1
    By Wm.
    So you download the free version to see how it works. You expect to be able to wysiwyg edit things in one of the web sites generated from a template. Nothing seems editable and you don't know if it is because it is "demo" or it is just a bad interface that has crazy constraints on how to edit. After tryhing this demo, seems the app is very poorly designed, nothing works intuitivally. Time to look elsewhere.
