Good idea - medium execution
After reading the description, I knew that's the service I needed.
Bought it and ran into the first problem. I chose a secure (long) password. There are no rules or bits of advice. It was accepted. I tried to log in. Error. Long story short - your password should only have 16(?) characters.
After a very bumpy start, I created a test project. Tried to duplicate it, but there is no option. Bummer number two.
I created a funnel, chose a template and went to the preview. All fine and I changed the device. On my phone it looks terrible. No responsive design. The fonts are partly not readable. Bummer number three.
Wanted to look into it the next day. No login was possible. Password reset but got no mail. Reload the login page and got an error. The page was down. In the Appsumo question section, they said there is an issue, and it will be fixed in 60 minutes. Ok, no problem. Tried several times the next day. No login was possible, start page was also down. Bummer number four.
After four (!!!) days I could log in again - in the mean time there was no notification from Convertpages that they were down. Imagine you're running an ads campaign - My dashboard was empty. No Projects, no funnels. Significant bummer number five.
Now, after a month I tried again. Another layout, the same poor view on mobile. Tested the GDPR process and didn't get it running.
I wanted to love it cause it is a tool I need. But I gave up. Lost the trust and it needs way too much polish to fit my needs.
PROS
- good pricing
- a fair price for additional visitors if you break your limit
- a lot of settings (SEO etc.)
CONS
- data loss after downtime
- unable to duplicate projects
- crappy design on mobile
- PageSpeed issues

May 9, 2024Thank you for the candid Feedback. We did as you mention have a hardware failure at the kickoff of our campaign which resulted in some of the items listed below, and are working through some of the features requested such as "duplicating projects into templates" so I hope you give us another try in the near future so you can see our continual progress.
Again appreciate your time in getting these thoughts together to help us build on what you are liking about ConvertPages and where you see it/us going.
