Shogun ‑ Landing Page Builder

The ease with which you can build good-looking and well-functioning pages for your Shopify store would be enough to earn Shogun 5-stars in my book. But then Nick and his team goes a (huge) step further and provides some of the most responsive and helpful customer support I believe I've ever experienced. If you want to easily build great pages for your store and have a fantastic support team behind you... get Shogun!

Shogun is a great app, and their team has been wonderful with their support! We have a lot of custom liquid code in our theme, developed over five years. Shogun was able to pull in our existing theme code and allow us to easily embed new content using their drag-and-drop editor. It's a very powerful platform with great flexibility, even if you've already done lots of customization to your Shopify theme. I'm on the Pro plan, and it's worth every penny!

This app has been a game-changer for us. We're able to really easily create amazing looking pages. It's really simple to use and the templates are beautiful. I once had a slight issue and contacted support at 3 am. The developer got out of bed to call me and help me fix the problem. That is seriously the best support experience that I have ever had. I would highly recommend this app to anyone who wants to create gorgeous landing pages or website pages with minimal effort.

Excellent app, makes building stunning pages really easy. I can't give this a 5 star review for a couple of reasons, in my experience optimising for mobile is sometimes abit tricky, as the builder will sometimes look different to the real page, but is always fixable with good support from Shogun, another reason is the app is lacking the ability of spam filers on contact forms built in Shogun, a feature that is needed for an e-commerce store. But over all, a very good app.

Shogun's staff and support is exemplary! They helped us quickly recover data due to a publishing mistake we encountered during the testing phase. The developer and owner of the company and several on his team called us emailed and worked with us to resolve the issue quickly. Keeping in close contact with us and checking back frequently. In this day and age where good support and top customer service is hard to come by at many companies...these guys ROCK! I look forward to working with this app and with this team.

This app is a life-saver!

I’m a designer, but without advanced experience in coding. So, I was always dissatisfied about the boring pages I created with the default html-editor in Shopify. Installing Shogun changed everything: I’m now able to customize the pages like I want them to look like. Also, the developer Nick and Finbarr were very kind and helped me out immediately with an issue I had. Before I started, I was concerned if the price will match with what I get. Compared with hiring an expert for that, the app costs nothing! Highly recommended!

I played with this app for 5 minutes on an existing product page. I didn't get the results I wanted and I went to delete the page in Shogun so I could start over. It ended up unpublishing the product page in my site and there is no option in the Shopify backend to republish it even though it is listed as Active. I had to call Shopify support who told me that there is Shogun code in the product page that the developer will have to delete and that there is nothing she can do to help me. Horrible experience. Apps should add functionality to your site, not ruin it.

This quote is from Shogun's shopify FAQ page:

"Although there is not yet a way to "apply to all", and set this new page layout as your Shopify product page layout for all your pages, this helps you edit your existing Shopify product pages for custom page layouts."

read this as, if you want to use shogun to edit your product's page layout -- you need to edit each product, one at a time. This also includes category pages etc. This app treats your store as a huge array of individual pages that you need to edit individually. Great tool for making custom one off pages. Terrible if you are hoping to use this to build a custom theme. -4 Stars because they got my hopes up. +1 star because of the free trial.

The app has some great features packed in. My issue with the app is that it is NOT plug and play with our Shopify theme (which is a default Brooklyn theme from the Shopify app store). Shogun support generally always blames the issues on the theme and tells us to talk to our developer, which is problematic because we don't have a developer on-staff. If I push hard enough they will get their technical team involved and resolve the issue for us, but it's always a 'one-time courtesy'. This app should work with the native Shopify themes out of the box, and if there are issues they should offer to resolve them without hassle. I like the app functions, and if the support improves they will receive a better rating (updated this from 1* to 3* based on improvement I've already seen).

We utilize many apps on headphones.com. We have never felt the need to write a review until now.

Best page builder we have utilized, hands down. The Shogun app is very versatile unlike other drag and drop page builders out there. It is a little more complicated to use but it is worth the learning curve as it can create some truly beautiful pages. For some reason, most shopify apps do not have the option to have different pages for desktop to mobile, which in this day and age should be a must. But Shogun has the option to build different pages based on the browsing device. Couple that with the customization that they offer and Shogun easily stands above the rest as the best.

We had some initial problems upon install with getting Shogun to work properly but their support staff went above and beyond to make it work for us. Super excited to continue to build pages with Shogun!
