SendOwl Erfahrungen

Great way to sell digital downloads

Kommentare: I like SendOwl a lot, but I feel like it hasn't improved much the past few years while other competitors have been improving.

Vorteile:

I like that you can use SendOwl with an existing site. If you have a WordPress website, you just add the buy button to your site. It's simple and quick to set up.

Nachteile:

I've used SendOwl since about 2014. Several years ago, they made very frequent improvements and enhancements and the product got better constantly. However, the past few years, the development has stalled.

Perfect for the blogger or small business!!!!

Kommentare: I used and owl to deliver my digital products to my customers. Send owl does an excellent job in letting you select how many downloads your customers can do. Any issues and their customer service was quick to handle them. It makes for a very hands-off digital product delivery. Great for those looking for a passive income.

Vorteile:

I love cinderella! It's the perfect tool for any small business or blogger who is on a budget. Since the fees are low you can maximize your profit margins while still delivering a great product to your customers. It's easy to integrate into my WordPress website and has a very professional landing page for customers to view pictures and product descriptions. It really is the best low cost solution compared to Shopify or wix.

Nachteile:

It does use PayPal for its payment processing. I did have to set up a PayPal account but it was free and easy. So it's really not a complaint.

Extremely Disappointed - Bad Customer Service

Kommentare: I started getting frustrated with SendOwl when they provided horrific support on getting Google Analytics and Facebook Pixels incorporated into their system. I couldn't analyze my conversions. They basically gave me cut-and-paste replies. Then when I did move my digital business to WIX and suspended my account with them, they immediately cut off my past customers from downloading the material they paid for. Just another added layer of bad customer service!

Vorteile:

Ease of use. Good reporting. It's Priced OK.

Nachteile:

It's challenging to incorporate Google Analytics and Facebook Pixels. First, they won't provide you with tech support. Also, when you decide to move your service to another platform, they immediately cut off your past customers from getting the content they paid for.

Clean, Feature-Rich, Fast and Effective Setup

Kommentare: Good! I recommend it completely for beginners, sellers on a budget and sellers who want a clean, simple design for their products.

Vorteile:

I like the clean look and easy setup. I especially like the fast integration with Thrive Themes' Thrive Apprentice Wordpress Course plugin. Sendowl comes with free trials and set durations for subscriptions, upsells, bump offers and there's the drip-selling feature if you don't want to sell everything at once. The pre-selling feature is also something I haven't seen in other software. There are also cart abandonment notifications to the customer. Lastly, I think the $9/mth basic plan is well worth it, and starts a beginner right off. The other plans—Standard Plan - $15 per month, Premium Plan – $24 per month, Business Plan – $39 per month—at this time of writing—are also very well worth it.

Nachteile:

I think SendOwl is great, but the look and feel of the checkout is a little too simple for me. It's too business-looking. It just doesn't scream "this is a truly different, fun product that outshines all others" which is the feel I want my clients to have.

Good product for Selling Digital Products!

Vorteile:

I liked the seamless interface when uploading a product to sell online, also the usability on the customer side when purchasing. It has a lot of add-ons as well which will make you easily impressed! And hopefully sell more products with :)

Nachteile:

The only thing I did not like was the API attached to it, my developer had some difficulties with it and the price of it. These were the two biggest deterrents.

Not great if you need video hosting

Vorteile:

It was easy to set up and had a checkout page that integrated with my website. The customization was awesome too and that made it feel like an extension of my website.

Nachteile:

I couldn't host videos on SendOwl, meaning students had to download the entire course as a large zip file. It detracted from the learning experience students want when purchasing an online course. I moved to an LMS platform that offered video hosting so I could structure the course properly with quizzes, feedback, and certifications.

Good to start but there's better

Kommentare: It helped us start our business but then we decided to switch to another cart platform.

Vorteile:

Easy to use, perfect for small companies in the beginning because it's also pretty cheap. We used SendOwl to sell our ebook and it allowed us to put a watermark on the ebook with the email of the buyer.

Nachteile:

The interface looks so old and it lacks a lot of options. It's bit limited when your company starts to grow.
