NOT WORKING - they put a dispute with AppSumo on the shoulder of the users
Bought the deal and Optinly is now displaying a message AppSumo didn't pay them and therefore they don't service the users. Massive disruption to any customer. Highly unprofessional of Optinly and not a company or product that honors their commitment. NOT RECOMMENDED.
Optinly have closed our account as, apparently, Appsumo never paid them. Unsure who is right but maybe consider buying from here or, at least, Optinly.
There is a serious security issue with this plugin that has existed for a very long time now - bad enough for Wordfence to advise complete removal of the product. Contacting support about it several times produces nothing but weak assurances that the developer is working hard on the problem. This, unbelievably, is followed by incredibly long periods of silence.

I've been using the Optinly WP plugin on my website for several months and was very pleased until this week. I received a notice that the plugin had a critical security issue, so contacted Optinly support.
I was told that the issue had been fixed, but then the next day Wordpress removed the plugin, pending review. I informed Optinly support again, but so far no answer and the plugin is still not back on the Wordpress "approved" list.
It's very disappointing ... not so much because there was an issue (I understand things happen), but because it appears there's been no attempt to fix it. I hope this gets resolved soon so I can reinstall the plugin on my site.
NOTE: After this is fixed, I will come back and update my review.

Hi, please use the right version of the plugin. It is fully up and running.
So far, very happy with how easy this was to set up through Wordpress. I've been looking for some unobtrusive, modern and responsive software for little nudges and popups, and I'm impressed with the granularity this provides and flexibility for display and functionality.
I have been using Optinly for a while now, and my experience has been overall positive. One of the standout features is the wide range of templates available. The customer support team is also responsive and helpful. Additionally, the monthly plans offered by Optinly are quite generous compared to other similar products in the market. This isn't my first time using a product from this company; I'm also a subscriber to their content writer Content Ai, which is pretty good too.
On the downside, there is room for improvement in terms of the user interface. While functional, it could be more intuitive and user-friendly. More templates for the drag & drop builder or more customization options would also enhance the user experience and allow for greater creativity in popup design.
I purchased Optinly with high hopes, as it seemed like a promising tool to enhance my email marketing strategy. Unfortunately, the experience has been nothing short of frustrating.
The ConvertKit integration, which is critical for my workflow, stopped working shortly after purchase. Without this integration, the product is completely unusable for me. To make matters worse, their customer support is virtually nonexistent. Emails go unanswered, and live chat responses are rare, often consisting of one-word replies that provide no real assistance.
I’ve given Optinly plenty of time to address these issues, but it’s clear they are either unwilling or unable to resolve them. This is not the level of reliability or support I expect from an AppSumo deal.
As it stands, I cannot recommend Optinly. If you rely on seamless integrations and responsive support, this product will only waste your time and money. I hope the team improves their service, but until then, I’d advise others to look elsewhere.
I discovered Optinly two yrs ago and it has quickly become my go-to tool for collecting emails from visitors for me and my clients. This lead generation assistant is simple to use yet incredibly effective. The user interface is intuitive, making it easy to set up and customize opt-in forms that match my brand's aesthetics. I appreciate the various targeting options available, allowing me to display the right message to the right audience at the right time. Optinly has significantly increased my email subscriber list, and I'm impressed with the results it has delivered. If you're looking for a reliable and user-friendly solution to boost your lead generation efforts, I highly recommend giving Optinly a try.
I recently incorporated Optinly into my website's popup marketing and have been incredibly impressed. The user-friendly design ensures that the popups are not just bearable but actively engaging for visitors. This is crucial, as a positive user experience is key to any marketing strategy's success.
