ShortStack Pricing Overview

Almost immediate support Many many functionalities Many templates and tools to use for social media Ease in navigation Easy to understand how it works Very good initial training

Nothing to be honest except that it gets a bit expensive at higher levels of usage

Facebook contest to clients I would need an IT to host

This product is great for giving you the tools to produce what you want, without a need for extensive CSS or programming knowledge. It is extremely user friendly, and the support team is very helpful and responsive. The widget based platform allows you to more easily visualize what is happening, allowing you to think of what else is possible for future ideas.

Although the new template design tools are a major step forward in terms of being user friendly, it can still be difficult to identify what exactly you are changing. It would be very helpful if there was a pop up help icon that gave a brief description and example screenshot of the section the option controls.

Shortstack is allowing us to quickly create and run campaigns with little to no involvement from anyone with actual development experience. This saves both time and money in regards to the potential cost of hiring a developer.

It's difficult to narrow down what I like about Shortstack. I used it for three or four years and was always very happy with results. I probably ran 20-25 different social media giveaways and contests.

I got to a point near the end of my use of Shortstack that I would have benefited from a less constrictive set of templates to build off of.

Massively successful awareness campaigns at a relatively meager cost.

After 4+ years as a loyal customer and with dozens of promotions deployed, count me as a Shortstack fan! I appreciate Shortstack's reliability and consistent platform innovation but most of all value the absolute commitment to customer and technical support and truly outstanding level of care provided. It goes above and beyond and that’s a rare thing

I don't think there's anything I could say that I "dislike". In the 4 years of using the product there have been times I'd wished there were certain tools or functionality that existed, but through consistent platform upgrades and new features all of those needs have been right.

The challenge is to build and deploy quality Facebook and web-based promotions in a time and cost effective manner. Using Shortstack we've been able to do that consistently and very affordably. We've seen very successful promotions that have been tremendously beneficial to email/data acquisition and in driving social engagement. With the ease of use of the platform we've been able to optimize promotions in real time and gain valuable insight from the integrated analytics.

Shortstack is an easy to use tool to build social media campaigns. We've been using it to build sweepstakes app for Facebook for several years. Very easy to use with lots of drag-and-drop functionalities. Easily collect email addresses and any other form fields you need. Customize to match your brand. All of this at a price that won't break the bank! They even have a free plan for smaller businesses.

No API for real-time integration with our top-tier ESP.

sweepstakes collection pages.

The functionality of the system is great, and very intuitive.

There is isn't really much wit the system that I dislike

This system helps us with managing social media contest. It really helps with selecting random entries.

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.

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

Lead generation, asset delivery are two huge items

Easy to use and very effective. It also lets us "Pause" our subscription so that we are only billed during the times we are using the platform.

It requires a bit more technical knowledge to customize campaign components, but still usable to those that are not fully versed in development.

Just gives us a a simple and cost effective way to run certain contest and sweepstakes marketing programs, so we can pass the savings along to our clients.
