Cart Lift – Abandoned Cart Recovery for WooCommerce and EDD

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

134 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 83 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 3 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 1K.

   I found an issue related to this plugin, but the support team hasn’t responded in over 2 weeks. Very disappointed with the lack of support. This topic was modified 11 months, 2 weeks ago by Shubham Verma. This topic was modified 11 months, 2 weeks ago by Shubham Verma.

   Super intuitive and easy to set-up. A great free solution for abandoned carts. Quick tip: Be sure to set up smtp email for your wordpress site and ensure it is spf and dkim validated. Otherwise your cart notifications may get flagged as spam. Thanks for this great product. A far better option than the expensive paid option offered through Easy Digital Downloads.

   Support is fast and helpful, always listening to user feedback. The CartLift plugin is mature and incorporates many useful features: For example the crazy realtime analytics of every single cart process in relation to the potential customer. WooCommerce integrated! Notifications and automatic email reminders working flawlessly. The newest enhancement is reCaptcha V3 for form and popup. I am also using the Pro version and don’t know the differences, but can wholeheartedly recommend it. Best regards

   Really, if I could give you 1000 stars, not 5I started with buying a lift card, and now I am happy that I bought the agency planThe lift card and all the plugins do their job, but what distinguishes the team is that it listens to your suggestions and implements them, as well as listens to your problems and solves themRegardsMuhammad

   Below is my original review, but the developers have reached out to me to make this right since then. They offered to provide a fix for the issue, but I had already moved on to another service. Instead, they gave me a refund, and I’m thankful for that. I’ve changed my review to a 3-star since the product didn’t fit me, but the developers went out of their way to help me once they realized I was incredibly dissatisfied. I would give this product a try again if my new service does not work out. I have been using this product on my Easy Digital Downloads issue, and immediately after purchase, I noticed that the plugin breaks the discount display on the checkout template. I brought this issue to the developer’s attention on February 27th. They replied on March 1st that they would look into it. I replied on the 17th for an update and have not received a reply since. I honestly wouldn’t trust the product if the developers would not support it properly. I’ll be seeking to get my money back. This topic was modified 4 years, 3 months ago by John Lewis.

   I love the speed and simplicity of this plugin. I had it working in 5 minutes without reading any documentation. Everything just makes sense. I tested the plugin thoroughly and it does everything I want. It captures the emails if a user is logged in, but even if they aren’t, all they needed to do was enter their email, if they leave the page, it’s still captured! For that reason I changed the checkout to have the email field at the top. You can write your own Email reminder or use their template. You can create a sequence of emails to remind customers to complete their purchase. You can set the emails to be sent after an hour, then a day or more. Then finally after a few days you can also send them a discount offer to tempt them back. My client asked me to create an abandoned cart solution for them, so I had a look around, many of the plugins were to expensive ! I bought the pro version and am very happy with my purchase, I encourage you to get the Lifetime Plan plan while you still can, it’s amazing value for money.
