Misleading deal, google consent mode no longer included
I just got the message from support - Google Consent Mode (despite it saying so on the deal page) is not included, they have come up with a new "ULTIMATE" plan and paywalled features behind that, that should be part of this deal according to this deal page.
Other than that, it feels clunky to use, routinely empties my settings so I have to set them up again, and the translations are worst I have ever seen, they should have just left those all in english so I can manually translate. Current state of translations is so bad it's impossible to figure out what the original sentence was supposed to mean (in cookie banner texts etc.)
Don't like it one bit, and I regret buying this deal (and I also regret skipping their competitors because I bought this one already)

Thank you for your feedback.
It is worth mentioning that Google Consent Mode V2 wasn't available at the time of our agreement, and it offers functionalities beyond what was included in the original Google Consent Mode V1.
While the plan you bought doesn't include V2, it's important to note that V2 is a recent launch and significantly different and wasn't even announced at the time you purchased...
Most people wanna set it up and forget it. Good luck. Not the case with this. It's a bit frustrating and I'm a techie... I say this with the utmost respect. When you have a product, make it for the user not the developers who created it. And make sure to do Quality Assurance testing...
- English US changing the cookie body text doesn't work *they had to manually make the text change for me. - Some logo stuff is broken when trying to customize. - GDPR included CCPA but you wouldn't know that because they have a CCPA separately but it's not clear *suggest a tool tip. - Just not as intuitive as it could be. I suggested to do 1, 2, 3 and be more clear, you're kinda all over the place. Clicking efficiency is not that great either sometimes have to click 3-4 steps for something so basic. - Hidden menu items that should be more prominent. - WP plugin was told that you install it and it works. Not 100% correct. IF you already bought it via AppSumo you already set up an account. The WP Plugin is if you NEVER EVER set up an account. Now as of this date of the review you can use code as a work-around but the WP Plugin doesn't recognize your existing account, it treats you as new. And there's less features on the plugin. - I spent about 30 minutes with their support team showing them all the ways they can improve.
I have tested this product and it is very easy to use and set up. The problem is you cannot set up the cookie consent to work for both GDPR and CCPA simultaneously. You must pick one or the other. This limits your use of this product geographically to the USA or European Union nations. Big dissappointment.

Hi there,
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
The requested feature is currently in development and will be offered to Tier 2 and 3 users in the near future. The feature will display the banner in the country and region in accordance with the country's legislation.
I picked this up because I own a lot of content sites, and privacy laws are getting more strict as time goes on. Seers helped me crank out privacy policies for my sites, and best of all they format perfectly when copied and pasted into the Gutenberg editor on Wordpress. Very glad I purchased! It pays for itself the first time you use it.

GDPR and CCPA = Not at the same time.
