"Great Product"
What do you like best about ShortStack?

Super easy to set up and very easy to make changes and publish them.

What do you dislike about ShortStack?

Nothing! Everything has always worked great!

What problems is ShortStack solving and how is that benefiting you?

For clients that don't have websites it's very helpful to use. Also for clients that have "form" submissions it's great to be able to track the submissions.

"Invaluable tool for rapidly assembling promotions/landing pages/competitions "
What do you like best about ShortStack?

If you run a fast based business with multiple social media/marketing channels, and need to run promotions or special content quickly and without much in the way of technical skills, then give ShortStack a go,

What do you dislike about ShortStack?

There's nothing significantly problematic which is in the control of ShortStack, the API's offered by social platforms are sometimes a little lacking, but we can normally figure out a way to achieve what we need.

What problems is ShortStack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our current web platform doesn't work well on mobile devices and is quick technical to use (we're fixing that!), but right now, ShortStack lets us build content quickly and easily for mobile targeted marketing.

"Very User Friendly!"

I like how quick and easy it is to build and even customize a form.

What do you dislike about ShortStack?

The ONLY thing I dislike is that adding custom CSS isn't as easy as creating a form with the standard builder.

What problems is ShortStack solving and how is that benefiting you?

We often need to collect information and webhook it into our platform. We use ShortStack to create these form.

"ShortStack Makes Contests Easy"
What do you like best about ShortStack?

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.

What do you dislike about ShortStack?

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.

What problems is ShortStack solving and how is that benefiting you?

By using ShortStack we are are able to better administer our contests. Using web forms gets complicated and tricky. ShortStack is easy and compiles our entries in a easy to use way.

"ShortStack is a very flexible tool to engage our Facebook followers"
What do you like best about ShortStack?

With ShortStack, the best part is the flexibility and ease of use. Customizing takes a little more tech savvy, but it is overall very easy to use.

What do you dislike about ShortStack?

The only problem we have run into is when ShortStack changes or removes a template that we are using, it seems to break our landing page.

What problems is ShortStack solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are growing our facebook audience with sweepstakes and giveaways. Our 4th of July photo contest increased our engagement by 10x!
