    This app has transformed our business and Julian and the team have been super helpful answering all sorts of related questions. Highly recommend.

    This app would be much more helpful if: Bundles were integrated into the program, allowing users to offer pre-sale packages similar to Kickstarter. Currently, if you use Downpay (the suggested payment app for smaller pre-sale down payments), you can't use a bundle app—which is necessary because Crowdfunder doesn’t support bundling natively. There were better visual representations of campaign progress. The app currently shows a due date and basic text indicating how far along you are toward your goal, but it could be much better. Aesthetically pleasing progress bars or visual indicators would greatly improve the experience. We ultimately had to delete the app and build this functionality ourselves.

    Used to use it all the time, used to be an amazing app. Now it doesn't work at all, can't even get it to load let alone function. Really disappointed.

    This worked perfectly and allowed me to run a crowdfunding campaign on my website without using a third party service like Kickstarter. I saved a lot of money by paying the monthly Crowdfundr fee rather than paying a % of Kickstarter fees.

    This app automatically hid the add to cart button when my campaign met its goal, even though I never turned on that option on my campaign. This should never be an automatic setting as this potentially costed me sales in the period of time where the add to cart button was down.

    As long as you set it up using Chrome (vs. Safari), it is pretty straight forward. Instructions are very clear and support ist amazing.

    I used this to bring back a product we had not sold for a few years. It was easy to setup and worked well. The only thing I thought was strange was the way it displayed the number (the used of the . and , was confusing for some people) It may work in some European countries but not ours. Apart from that it was flawless and will more than likely use in the future again.
