Since the switch to "Complianz" we do have a lot of problems with this app. E.g. on mobile devices (tested on Google Pixel 7A, Android 16) the banner pops up on every page we open. Test many different browsers (Chrome, FF, Opera, Brave). That essentially makes it impossible to browse our site or buy something! Never had any problems with the "old" version of the app!

The app launched updates without informing me and as I didn't go into the app to accept it (as I didn't know about it), our entire tracking broke down. It took me weeks to figure out that an update in this app caused all the issues. The support wasn't helpful either. Now again, they launched a new version and forced me to move to it. My banner design and all customizations were lost in the process, and I had to start from 0. Therefore, I now decided to move to a different Cookie banner app.

The App was working fine, before their upgrade to "Complianz". Now it is... - not loading at all when using Brave Browser - not loading the appearance panel when using Edge Browser - still showing the old app, when visiting our store, although it should be showing the new one I contacted their support and they wanted me to sign a four page service agreement before helping me. Although the agreement stated, that no additional cost were involved, it still felt fishy. According to the agreement, I was also "requesting exceptional support [...] which does not fall within the scope of the support services provided by the Provider." In other words: Get the app (that you pay for) up and running in your store like it is advertised, is a "exceptional support" matter, that "does not fall within the scope" of their support team.

Seit dem neuen Update leider wesentlich schlechter als vorher. Das Widget ist an einer schlechten stelle platziert und lässt sich auch nirgends anders platzieren. Das Logo im Header ist extrem klein, sodass man es kaum erkennt und lässt sich nicht verändern. Das Design des Banners war vorher besser und lässt sich nun auch kaum noch anpassen. Für mich ein leider sehr enttäuschendes Update.

Support from Veronika - she works for that Cookie-Consent-Tool - is the worst I have ever experienced. I wanted tiny changes in the function of the consent-tool, that most other consent tools offers automatically. We had a few weeks email-contact and it didnt help. Even a developer helped me, but a last change even he couldnt do. Veronika just repeated what she was texting in the emails and recommended that i should ask an external developer. I will just find another Cookie-Consent-Tool, that and the support behind, cant recommend at all.

Support only in English? Fine, then in English! Then we'll use a translation app if that's too much for you. We haven't had any visible conversions in the backend for over a month. Only Shopify found out that this is because of you! Would you please inform us that an update is necessary? !!!! And the support can only be reached via detours, because the popup stubbornly won't go away! We are so annoyed and disappointed! Hopefully we will be contacted immediately. We will not change any codes etc. Why do we pay for your app???????

Wir haben GDPR Legal Cookie by iubenda vor einem Jahr installiert und anfangs waren wir zufrieden. Damals hatte wir eine Frage, die schnell vom Support beantwortet wurde. Doch leider hat sich das nach einem Jahr komplett geändert. Der Seiten-Scan hat gezeigt, dass die Cookies der App nicht korrekt gesetzt werden – was für uns als Betreiber extrem ärgerlich ist. Also habe ich mich an den Support gewandt. Die erste Antwort ließ vier Tage auf sich warten und war leider überhaupt nicht hilfreich. Auf meine Nachfrage nach weiterer Unterstützung warte ich nun seit weiteren vier Tagen ohne eine Antwort. Das ist kein Service, wie man ihn sich wünscht! Die App wurde daher deinstalliert, denn es gibt definitiv bessere Anbieter auf dem Markt.

Just miserable! First of all, after implementing Shopify Extended Checkout at our Shop Go-Live the app didn't set the cookies probably which made it necessary to engage an agency to bug fix. As a result, each change in the app resets the cookie settings in standard. So we need to ask the developer each time. Our agency tried to reach out to the customer service but didn't get any answer. Also now having problems for which I tried to contact via In-App-Support, but after one week there is no answer. I didn't even get an confirmation mail, that my request arrived.

Der Banner funktioniert zwar, aber leider kann man den Tag Manager nicht oder wohl nur mit hervorragenden Programmierkenntnissen so einrichten, dass Tags nach der Einwilligung gefeuert werden (Consent Mode V2). Eine ordentliche Schritt für Schritt Anleitung gibt es auch nirgends. Daher leider nicht zu empfehlen.
