Scored on 245 merchant reviews we hold for SB: Helpdesk, Live Chat & FAQs, across five checks. Every figure is computed from those reviews — expand any row to see the counts behind it.





Computed from the 245 reviews we hold, with 12-month windows measured to 2026-08. This scores the public review record — it is not a review of the software itself, and a low score often means we hold little evidence rather than poor evidence.

The newest 8 of 245. Open one to read it in full, with the developer's reply where there is one.

We use this app for our FAQ. Recently (September 2025) it revised its permissions to request full access to all our customer and order data. This is insane. We have no desire to give this app such sensitive data, just to use a FAQ. Regretfully, we may have to uninstall this app and migrate our FAQ to another app. What a waste of time.

Developer repliedHi K3D Designs Team! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re really sorry for the frustration this has caused. To clarify, the recent permission update does not give us access to view or use your customer or order data. The request was made because of technical changes in Shopify’s requirements, but HelpCenter app only uses the minimum information necessary to run its features, and your sensitive data is never accessed or shared. We value your trust and hope we can restore your confidence in HelpCenter. Best regards, HelpCenter team Show more

I would not recommend this app to others because of the same reason that most of the others have given it a 1 star review... they changed the pricing model so that functionality that was free was no longer free. This had a direct impact on your live site because now only 5 FAQs were displayed on the site and any other FAQs were no longer live. The danger here is that the creators of this app directly affected your live site and the information that was displayed by changing their pricing model and forcing you to pay for functionality that was free. They also force you to upgrade and pay in order to get an export so you have to manually copy each individual FAQ from their app which means you have to edit every single one to copy the answer. Would not use any of their apps in the future.

Developer repliedDear Smart Sips Coffee ! First of all, we would like to apologize for such an experience using our application. We fully accept your views and agree that this is unacceptable. Your feedback is very valuable and will help us avoid similar mistakes in the future! There should be no excuses on our part, but let us mention that in connection with the changes to the Free plan and FAQ as a result, our team has been updating users for quite some time about these changes and what they may affect. Since we try to find an individual approach to everyone, we have already contacted you by mail and offered options for solving the issue as quickly as possible. We look forward to your response! We are very sorry once again that our application did not meet your needs. We would really like to assist you resolving the issue so that you change your mind and give us a second chance. We truly value our customers and try to do our best to provide them with the best experience possible. Waiting for your reply! Best Regards HelpCenter team Show more

Good app for FAQs, for the most part. Comes complete with schema markup and the ability to link to specific Q&As. The template choices are limited. There are a couple of issues with technical SEO/accessibility: 1) There are three levels for Headings and Q&As: Category > Section > Articles. If you don't use categories AND sections then you end up with skipped heading levels. In our case, we don't need a subcategory/section within each category. 2) It comes with it's own title tag, which means you get flagged in SEO audits for having multiple title tags. There's no documentation about it this, or how to work around it. I've found that you have to edit the theme code so that the Shopify title tag isn't inserted on this page. 3) The app is heavy, so the FAQs page gets flagged for being slow.

Developer repliedHello Fancy Feast US team. Thank you for your feedback. We’re constantly striving to improve our customers’ experience, so we’ll use your suggestions to improve our application. Thanks for being a customer! Best rgards, HelpCenter team Show more

I had given these guys a horrible review 9 years ago, but it appears that they have changed quite a bit since then. I needed help this morning and got Caleb on live chat in about 30 seconds. He was extremely helpful and within about 10 minutes he got into my Shopify store and fixed my FAQ problem. He was very attentive and his communication with me was excellent. I highly recommend these guys!

The contact form submissions should create tickets... too clunky.

Developer repliedHi Chariot Outdoor team! We are very sorry that our app didn't meet your expectations. Please let me clarify that the contact form message is automatically sent to the email you linked to the contact form. If it's the same email you have in HelpDesk, the message will be shown there as well. Kind regards, HelpCenter team Show more

FAQ works well with many options. Had an issue once and it was quickly resolved.

Developer repliedHello team Chinese Herbs Direct! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a rating. We are thrilled to hear that you are enjoying our product and service. Thank you for choosing us! Best regards, HelpCenter team Show more

Needed some tech support; contacted them via Chat and it was sorted in minutes. Easy to use app, have used it now for around three or four years.

Developer repliedHi! Happy to hear that you are satisfied with our app and support service :) Feel free to contact us if you face any issues, we are always here and happy to help! Best regards, HelpCenter team Show more

I am trying this app now as opposed to Zendesk. So far, so good! And customer service is really helpful with any issues. I'll update this when I'm 100% up and running!

Developer repliedHello SOAR team! Thank you very much for such a high mark of our service! We appreciate our customers feedback and always happy to provide you with our assistance! Best regards HelpCenter team Show more
