A Must Have for Marketers!

PROS

If you are a marketer and doesn't know how to code, POWR is a must-have tool in your arsenal. As a no-code developer, I depend heavily on plugins(WordPress). After subscribing to POWR, I was able to replace 3 WordPress plugins with POWR plugins. I am sure I will be able to remove more soon. Looking forward to using POWR on new projects and replace stuff in my old projects. So far, I haven't seen any drop in my page load times.

CONS

So far everything looks good. Nothing to dislike.

Reasons for switching to POWR

POWR plugins load faster compared to Elfsight.

Great Potential!

I had a couple issues with setting up my account but customer service took care of it quickly and easily.

PROS

The functionality it adds to my website. My theme has a number of functions POWR brings but there a few key ones that are missing and Powr fills those gaps. The chat function, mystery box, pop up promotions will all help convert my customers.

CONS

Nothing yet - I am still setting up my Shopify store migration and I am playing with the product before we go live. I only that I wish I had found them BEFORE I bought my theme.

Reason for choosing POWR

I have the theme - this adds to my functionality. Their chat function will easily replace HayOliver, which never worked properly. Hard to maintain messenger support when the system keeps logging you out!

Reasons for switching to POWR

Fed up with Magento's many breakdowns so I am switching to Magento. Looking to replicate some of the functionality in Shopify.

Very disappointed

PROS

In theory it seems like a good idea, but the platform isn't working well at all for our needs

CONS

The continuous disconnect of our forms, and can't speak to a live agents immediately, is not a good application for critical medical practice...

Vendor Response

Chad, we'll be the first to admit that we are not the solution for every case, and we apologize you did not receive the performance you were looking for from us. My name is Mick, and I'm the head of marketing for POWR. I've taken the time today to dig deeper into your issue with our head of customer support, and it seems that your forms contain certain language that triggers our phishing alert system, which then disconnects them. Our phishing alert has to be hyper-sensitive to account for and stop malicious attacks. It's not that you have done anything wrong; it's simply how our system must be set up so we don't leave others unprotected. Again, so sorry for the issues, and best of luck to you and your business. Feel free to contact me directly if you'd like further follow-up.

Powr comes with a price

PROS

I like that there are many different use cases under one solution. The apps are very easy to implement and duplicate.

CONS

The pricing model was per website and now it's related to pageviews. Powr can become very expensive for small businesses trying to scale.

Reasons for switching to POWR

Powr is better for customizations and has more options and integration with Stripe.

Good number of useful widgets

Customer service is great and reacts within 1-2 business days. The widgets are working great and never issued any larger problems in the past 6 years.

PROS

The number of widgets with great features. I use more than 50% of all widgets available in their portfolio and they are all very useful and working.

CONS

Some important widgets are missing (for my needs...)

Reason for choosing POWR

I did not, I am working with both because together they have 99% of widgets available for my needs

Super Easy

Wow! I'm one to buy apps cos I need them but dread the learning curve but this is super easy! I mean it's sleek, straightforward, and the really cool part- at your fingertips helps to show you how to put it on your website. and whatnot. No, you don't have to go through FAQ or search tutorials its right there. LOVE. Love. LOVe. Wow, I've not seen anything like that on other apps or websites etc. I wish Everyone followed by their example cos then I would be using all my apps without the anxiety of having to learn something new. seriously even an 8 year old or less can use this. Love it! I bought this cos I have Webstarts- YEAH cos it's easy and drag and drop (I'm not a coder or plugin wizard) but Webstarts it doesn't have the features that I wanted and this is where Powr came in has all that Webstarts lacks. Really looking forward to using this to complete my website. Not Anxious to learn how to use this, unlike all the others I own and are on the shelf! Nothing like this!(that I've come across at least) Every other app out there should have their help you feature when doing it right there!

PROS

Super Easy to use! if you use Webstarts u need this. Had social widgets, Popups, Tabs count down, the main things you need these days on and Paypal button too. Honestly, I love it!

CONS

Nothing! Every other app out there should have their help you feature when doing it right there!

Reason for choosing POWR

Again- Nothing else out there that would have all these features and work with Webstarts. Everything else is a plugin for WP and those u can. I'm glad this works on both and so its a good investment and I can still keep hold of my website builder

POWR is the best and most useful application

POWR helped me replace more than 5 plugins which in turn help me to speed the website.

PROS

I was using several plugins like countdown timer, popup box, slideshow etc. Fortunately i came across POWR & It has made my life easy. With 60 apps you can imagine the power of POWR. All I have to do is connect my account, set a time interval for when I want to post updates and POWR. It also have a Sutosave feature while creating apps. I have been using POWR for a few months now and I can attest to the fact that it is one of the best applications on the market.

CONS

I haven't come across any Issue as of now.

Swiss Army Knife of web tools

I love it. POWr saves me a lot of time to add flexibility to my websites that otherwise would take time and more money to deploy.

PROS

POWr is a true swiss army knife. It literally gives 60+ tools to you for your websites, and thus it replaces many tools and save money overall. The deployment is easy by just adding a script to the website, and anything can be done. Overall it is a real time saver for me. Sometimes I do not need to use Wordpress, and I can add many functions to any non-WP without any extra coding that would cost much time to do. The "comment section" plug-in is quite unique and easy to use. All the popular and necessary plug-ins/apps are available to choose from, for example, pop-up, forms, chat, paypal button, etc.

CONS

Not much. But for certain apps, the speed and code could be optimized a bit more.

Reason for choosing POWR

Powr is a Keeper

PROS

Powr is VERY simple to use. I have 6 apps created and I was just messing with it last night. Just the social media feed widgets would probably be enough to keep this deal! Then I started experimenting with the pop ups... countdown timers... hit counters, FAQ's and form builders and it was like a light just clicked. This is the perfect tool for my use case. I teach High School and I am always trying to make things a bit more exciting for students so I have created some custom websites. This is too easy to implement and change on the fly. Countdown timers for assignments that can be modified completely with text and colors, feedback forms, FAQ's for assignments. I feel like I stumbled across something awesome... and it isn't going to be distracting to maintain or use it.

CONS

It would be nice if some apps would work in Gmail, but it does work with other email providers.

A Versatile & Powerful Software

PROS

This concept of generating plugins/addons from a central place and placing them via code onto my websites is genius! I am not a developer and having to use visual website builders to buils websites from scratch is time-consuming. With POWR, I could generate a lead capture popup in minutes and embed it on my site. I can then duplicate it to be embedded on another website. Easy. I am planning to build a whole ecommerce store just with POWR apps and move away from Shopify. POWR will really help me save time and headaches. Also, whatever I create can be replicated for my blog and other businesses' websites.

CONS

The design of the popups and forms can only be customised to certain extent. I will like them to be more customisable. Also, they boast of having 60+ apps but most of them are repeats. It may be misleading information for potential new customers.

Customer Service is Stellar. Product is Practical and Convenient.

I would recommend this app, overall. As I stated earlier, their customer service blew me away and I am in the software industry. You can add links, photos, and much more to each pop-up and the templates are designed to be conversion-driven, which I appreciate. The stats speak for themselves and we have gotten a good increase in captures since using Powr.

PROS

Form integration was simple and convenient and the drag and drop features made pop-up building very easy and quick. Customization was a bit limited but that was not a problem because they have many themes to choose from. For a basic / intermediate form builder it was exactly what we needed.

CONS

There were a couple glitches that made a simple task take longer due to the need to investigate and correct. For example, a couple times changes were not saved even after manually saving and other times we had to start over due to crashing. All in all, though, their customer service was extremely quick to help.

Reasons for switching to POWR

Needed more customization options and wanted to switch to a more popular option.

Vendor Response

Katya, thank you very much for your in-depth review of POWR! We work really hard to provide a product that's useful, and simple. When we fail to do that, we want to know so we can make the necessary changes to improve our user experience. Should you need anything, please reach out to a Support Agent at support@powr.io.

Powr Is Good

PROS

The feature I enjoy the most is form builder (free). Options are limited but great if you are on a budget. I also included paypal button (paid). Obviously, you can add the paypal button for free through pay pal from your business without limitation. I am actually exploring different options at the moment. Overall not difficult to integrate with my business.

CONS

The package set up can be a little confusing because you have to factor in small details of usage in order to stay compliant.

Reasons for switching to POWR

Definetelly will give your website super POWR if you know how to optimize it.

Helped a lot. Just using a new web builder called Sitejet, despite its all great features, they didn't have a good review tools, comment, social engagement, conversion boost, and many other that POWR have. With POWR, i feel like i can optimize my website more. Overall i love the features they offer. Almost zero learning curve.

PROS

The almost zero learning curve. In just 5 min, i feel like i understand everything. They made everything simple, even too simple for me. The ability to add several plugin with superb easy installation. Add comment box, review management, with custom css, then put some pop up, with that sooooo much integration and so much feature, this software offer that something needed by everyone who didn't have such good knowledge in coding, have static website, don't know what to do how to improve engagement and conversion. I love the way they present 1-2 step install. That was easiest plugin install compared other. The code also responsive.

CONS

Some buggy things and features i need: - They dont have live chat. In first onboarding - App got cut off - can't delete an app that I've just created - please do something to review stars app, why you allow to not put star? - No webhook, i with they have - The interface is outdated for me. Yes, we can do some CSS optimization. But hey, I'm not that good even I didn't know what the acronym of CSS.

PROS

I like the ease of implementing this into my small business to collect orders online. I needed a way to streamline my cookie orders and POWR makes it easy and simple for both myself and my clients. I am able to collect all of the necessary information I need and I like how I receive email notifications right away once someone submits an order form. It's saved me time and brain space knowing everything is captured in one spot!

CONS

I'd love the option for more questions on the form. I have one of the paid tiers but upgrading to a higher tier doesn't make sense for my small business.

The Missing Link to building a website NO-Code

It's easy to use. able to fill the apps that many no-code website builders missing. Even if you make HTML websites, power will help you save time on just embedding ready made widget/apps.

PROS

I often found website builders (drag and drop) lacking a certain features. Like a popup optin form, or a prettier form, or surprisingly a functional image gallery are lacking, or just not up to the standard I need for the website to be an effective conversion funnel. I often have to look up some tool individually and pay for them, and it is frustrating... Here at powr.io they have a whole arsenal of things you need to pay individually, all under one roof. ooooof, it is good. I just built a client site with webstarts (a previous deal, it is pretty awesome but missing some features I look for, well you can't have it all.) With powr.io, I was able to fill the gap. Yay.

CONS

It is a widget that loads AFTER the website loads, so you will see a 1-2 second lag time for the power widget to show. It is not powr's fault, it is just how websites are loaded.

Add a simple and elegant comment/star rating system to your blog, website, or app.

I was searching for an app that would allow me to implement a commenting system on my blog (im using Sitejet, Prestashop, and WordPress), and POWR was perfect for the job!

PROS

I have been looking for a commenting system for my blog and I stumbled on POWR. The first thing I noticed was that it has a star rating system. My readers can now give their feedback in the comments AND see what other people think about the blog post. The POWR suite of applications are a great way to improve the functionality of my blog.

CONS

The user interface of POWR is okay and well-structured. However, there are several design issues. For example, many elements lack contrast. In addition, some sections of the website's content are truncated - making it difficult to read the text in these areas.
