ShortStack Reviews & Product Details

The platform is very easy to use. I used it primarily for building landing pages on Facebook for content and a few times for contests. The campaign builder is intuitive and easy to manage. The one complicated process, which is actually launching the page on a Facebook page, has a detailed step by step tutorial for creating the Facebook app and launching it.

The tagging system is another plus for organizing campaigns when you start to build out lots of pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one time I ran into an issue was adding team members and getting them involved in campaign management. The learning curve was steeper than I would have liked but we were able to manage. This was a year or two ago so things may have changed since then in terms of team setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how quick and easy it is to build and even customize a form. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ONLY thing I dislike is that adding custom CSS isn't as easy as creating a form with the standard builder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use ShortStack for all of our contests. It makes it easy for us to collect entries from forms on our website and from Facebook posts. We also like being able to schedule visibility so that the forms are not visible after a certain timeframe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if ShortStack integrated with more social media platforms. We would really like to collect likes and comments from other platforms such as Instagram and Twitter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very good initial training Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to be honest except that it gets a bit expensive at higher levels of usage Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Shortstack's offers different and simple to use settings for even a non-programmer to start. Styling is also quite straightforward with its drag and drop functions and the preset theme makes it easier to follow. Also the variety of set-themes. The main reason I recommended this platform to my colleagues was also the easy-to-integrate function on to Facebook. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of materials (video, blog post) to follow if I have would like to tweak the functionality of certain actions or widget. Personally, I think more preset themes can be added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The multi-faceted templates that come standard can actually challenge businesses to come up with ways to use them. Where you might first use them for a contest or dynamic contact form, the easy ability to make an ebook available, etc, is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it’s too easy to create errors or break what you’ve built by going too quickly or not testing. That’s obviously on the client but it’d be great to force that into integration to ensure it meets standards before going live. Lower price points for small business would be nice too Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Shortstack makes it incredibly easy to build customs landing pages for my blog or my social media channels. I can also use it to capture leads for my business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface can take some getting used to. It can be confusing when you first get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have benefited greatly from the Photo Contest functionality. It does all the heavy lifting needed in order to pull off all the necessary things for a successful contest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At the moment there is nothing I can think of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can customize it to fit my brand style guides. That way the users don't realize that they are a actually on a 3rd party site. They think they are still on our homepage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that the interface for building the forms. Can be confusing when creating a form from scratch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and learn, doesn't require any coding knowledge and offers good selection of design themes to suit our brand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Interface works inconsistently, specifically editing in modal window hasn't worked in recent updates, requiring extra steps to set up campaign. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
