Shortstack is Great
We use the platform at various tradeshows and events. It captures information of attendees and offers a clean interface.
PROSAfter using a lot of different platforms for online contests, my previous company settled on ShortStack and it was a great decision. One of the first things I did with my new company was purchase ShortStack so we can run contests.
CONSI really can't think of a con, you definitely get what you pay for.

Easy to use for competitions and lead gen
Very good for what we needed it for. Great out of the boxes features - and quick to setup.
PROSEasy to Setup. Great for quick landing pages & lead gen. great to customise & email triggers built in are a nice touch.
CONSLittle expensive. Some functions look generic unless designed & customised.
Reason for choosing ShortStack
We tried both. Few more professional style templates on Unbounce.

ShortStack is good, but has low limits on entries
-fairly easy to use -easy to scale up -the variety of ready made templates and the ability to customise them
CONSdon't like the fact that you are limited on : - views - entries i understand having a limit on the lower tier plans, but in the full plan, having limitations on the amount o page views and or entries on the account seems rather unprofessional to me. And this is a model i've seen to almost every software on the market that handles competitions ( i.e wishpond). They really should think about removing entry limits, at least on their full package, else if a company wants to create a high traffic competition and then replicate it, it will most probably mean it will need a new account..
Reasons for switching to ShortStack
same reason as the one mentioned in the cons section.. the limits. and it was to my displeasure i discovered that shortstack also had limits even on their most advanced plan.

Hi George! We really appreciate your feedback! We always take customer feedback very seriously. In reference to your suggestion, we totally hear what you're saying! We offer Enterprise plans with no entry or view limits - this is something that can be discussed with our sales team. We're absolutely willing to accommodate as many entries/views you're able to acquire, but due to the resources these higher view/entry numbers require on our end, we have to charge a little more. Thanks again for your review!

Happy since I signed up!
I acquired Shortstack to help roll out raffles and promotions the company I work for does monthly. This has made it easy to work with our website developer when needed to get buttons added bringing them to the Shortstack form I build.
PROSThe ability to be guided from start t finish with tips along the way is a great feature. This allowed me to acquire shortstack and teach myself how to use it, as the software is very user friendly.
CONSOnly thing I was having trouble with would be getting the URL set into a landing page with redirection. Maybe a bit more info on how to get it out and rolling once finished building.
Reason for choosing ShortStack
Ease of use and instructions from start to finish.

Professional Look Without the Pricetag
Positive. A well-designed piece of software. I will definitely be returning if we do this promotion again.
PROSI really loved how easy it was to build a professional looking giveaway. My giveaway was very unique (different clues appearing at different days) and I loved how I could set the entire thing up ahead of time and let it run, confident all the timing was correct. This took a lot of stress out of the giveaway week.
CONSIt was hard to track the entries through social media.
Reason for choosing ShortStack
Pricing was better. Also the features better matched the type of promotion we were running.
Vendor Response
Thanks for this awesome review, Heather! We hope to work with you again on your future giveaways.
