I have contacted support as i am facing issue with template overriding. They have fixed it and released new version. How ever this plugin works great. very useful
March 21, 2022
Even though the site clearly states "You’re covered by our 7 days money back guarantee" and I requested a refund 1 hour after I realized this plugin would not suit my needs. My refund request was denied. Apparently they only offer refunds if the plugin is broken and they can't fix it. As a developer, I will not be doing business with this company again.
February 26, 2021
I contacted Sarwar about the GS testimonial plugin conflicting with the new update of Word Press 5.6.1. it creates a white space at the the top of my website. Sarwar answered my support request by the next day and corrected the issue within two days and my website was working correctly. Great followup by Sarwar. I was very satisfied with the service.
December 21, 2020 1 reply
I installed GS Testimonial Lite in TheGem theme using the WPBakery Page Builder. As soon as the plugin was activated, the edit feature of WPBakery stopped working. I contacted support and received a response 7.5 hours later from Sarwar asking for WP access. I sent access and 15 hours later received an email from Sarwar informing me they had fixed the problem by adding a small script to the footer of my website. Needless to say, I am very pleased with their support efforts!
