KingSumo has been praised for its ease of use, seamless integration with SendFox, and effective audience growth through viral giveaways. While there have been some hiccups with email integrations and branding limitations, these are minor issues. Considering the positive feedback and occasional grumbles, KingSumo is a solid choice for those looking to expand their audience through viral marketing. Additionally, with a 60-day money-back guarantee, it's definitely worth giving KingSumo a try.

Horrible onboarding experience where we never received a confirmation email to verify

Horrible onboarding experience where we never received a confirmation email to verify and I did receive one response from support@appsumo.com but no response since.

Photos Not Uploading...

I have used this a few times and it used to work great. It is a basic tool but does the job and you cannot beat the price for what it provides.

However now I cannot upload photos, I've tried every browser, going incognito and and since there is no support, just an FAQ page, I'm stuck and frustrated 😒

I'll give it 2 tacos for what it used to be but why is it no longer working?

It does the job

Could do with some improving but the basics are there. I still recommend it but I hope
It improves over time.

A Bit Frustrating to set up!

I am sure this is a great product for more techy people but to much frustration for a new person like myself who has never done an online giveaway. I lost 2 days of the giveaway because my integration didn't work the first time. I checked in 2 days latter (shame on me for trusting it worked!) and saw a notice in my dashboard. Would have been nice to get an email instead! I am sure I lost many subscribers because of the integration part.

I sure hope it will be easier next time if I even use it again. $49 was a bit steep for a one time use...😟😟😟

The only thing I liked was the system choose the winner!

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT

These contests are being hacked and thousands of false entries are being flooded into them.

This in turn will fill up your bulk email program (like Sendfox) and while support will sympathize with you, the team has not fixed the problem. This has been happening over since at least January 2024 (I am writing this on April 30th 2024) and Appsumo has not not fixed the bug that allows the contests to be hacked.

There are other bugs, like broken links to social media accounts, but that is minor compared to the contests being hacked. There are basic features missing, like for example, there seems to be no way to even change your password.

I have no confidence in this product and it makes me question whether I will ever use another Appsumo original product.

Hey, joe10 — thanks for your feedback here. We've talked about this over email, but I want to share more publicly so other people can see .

As mentioned, the "hacked" false entries you received were highly unusual. They were not listed in any spam database, and had different IPs. The giveaway definitely didn't appear hacked to us.

Similar to other giveaway tools, we use multiple spam/bot...
