Reviews for CA: Google Ads Performance Max

For some reason it just went haywire with my budget. I somehow spent $185 in a few days with no sales. be very careful here, this app is not what it appears

There ad response time 10 days was bad also their key words selection on the items uploaded was bad.

would not recommended this app. The manager was not following the keywords set I have given and wasted thousands of dollar without one single conversion.

Excellent app and awesome support! I was able to have my campaigns up and running fast and it was super easy! Not even need to go into the Adwords Dashboard. This tool creates search and display ads automatically and works like a charm. Congrats!

The app works great and very easy to use. I was getting quick results in no time at all i was getting customers.

save your money and do not get premium... bad support for campaigns. If you are just trying to get the standard, then you can set up your ads easily, but if you need a person that helps you to get the better traffic and optimize your campaigns this is not your app.

Recently we moved away from our digital advertising agency because they were a little too pricey. So we signed up with Clever Google Adwords. After a few weeks we noticed we were not getting any conversions at all so we contacted them and they convinced us to upgrade to a higher price plan. Now we've paid them more money and in the past month have spent almost $1,000 and have had NO conversions (not one sale according to their tracking). We are doing okay with our website sales...but if the analytics are right...the thousands of clicks we've paid for have not resulted in one sale? So we went from a high priced digital advertising agency and were getting a lot of sales for a high marketing price...to this app where we are getting no sales from their computer generated PPC clicks. Not sure what to say...other than we've wasted a lot of time and money with this company.

not good, at first i thought it is very easy, but no, we spent $2000 ads to make $2000 sales, which is lost money, we asked their team to help us to optimize, they said they will, later they did nothing, we asked again, they never response, so we decided to stop this app, we have keep emailing many times, they finally response, : You just have to delete or at least pause the remaining campaigns from your Adwords account. This way you will not be charged in the future.

app is a scam, i turned the campaign they made off at 12pm. I opened the app later in the day at 8pm and it was active and $6.00 was already spent. Mind you my min budget set $5. I am glad I checked in again, i probably would of woke up to a bill of $100.

Google alsmost closed my account because of violation of their rules, good job guys!

i set my ads to run in the USA, the ad ran world wide. I set the ad to target women (we sell cosmetics)... my ads ran in Russia and Turkey, and when the users got to my site they searched for porn and sex toys. No thanks.

Quick and easy set up. Saves me a lot of time. Customer service is great. David has helped me out many times. I recommend the premium plan for more targeted ads.

UPDATE: Carlos and Jose have both contacted me telling me that I actually made the mistakes that resulted in such poorly designed, poorly written ads. Then they asked me to re-download the app with premium freebies in exchange for changing my review. I spent time with the set-up, entered custom text and made selections in each field. The app just simply did not save my data and as a result made really bad google ads. I suggested that they both focus on fixing the errors in their interface rather than trying to convince intelligent customers that they're wrong. ALERT: When you delete the app from your store, they still have Manager access to your AdWords account. Be sure to remove their access separately. __ The banner ads do not look good, they look terrible in fact. The banner ads feature a font that is really stylized and hard to read. There are typos in nearly every ad; banner, display, search, text, etc - "Quality" is misspelled as "Qaulity". The ad text is generic, pulled from Google categories - so some of the search ads have the phrase "Arts & Entertainment" for my products which are coffee mugs and coasters. I'm not really even sure how that mistake happened. As a personal preference I didn't like that some ads ended with the phrase "satisfaction guaranteed" which does not apply directly to retail gifts and souvenirs. I only let the ads run for one day (it asks for 4 weeks to learn, which is fair) but I had 11,100 impressions and only 49 clicks. That's a .44% click through rate, which is absolutely terrible. It just verifies what other reviewers are saying - these ads do not get "qaulity" clicks or customers to your site because the ads themselves are not "qaulity". I did much better creating Google Ads on my own. I understand that the service was free, but the terrible ad spend was not.

It Brought a ton of traffic but no sales not bad thought

Pros: Couple of clicks and a bunch of campaigns are automatically created with ad groups and ads. And you see instant increase in visitors if you are currently not advertising using Google Adwords. The easy of setting this up is cool. Cons: All the ads created are using your collection names, images, logo, etc. They are not targeted and is very very generic. So all you get is lots of hits but no traction. It's like slinging mud on the wall and praying that some will stick.

Carlos was very helpful in linking my adwords id. The customer service is awesome!

so far so good setting it up and upgrading to premium plan, will look fwd to see results on sales.

Awesome app , really professional work

This is super easy to use and I really see big results using this

Super easy integration and set up, all is automated but to my great, and pleasant surprise, an account manager, yes a real person, from clever commerce got in touch in relation to our adwords campaigns they created. Really happy with this.

5 stars all round. My hats off to Laura and the team for giving the special care. don’t fall for the people with experience. This company has it.

So far have seen the benefits of using the basic plan @ $10 per day budget, I have an uncommon amount of impressions for this price so these guys really know what they are doing with the ads, I have just signed up to the premium package and so far I have had a lot of support from the Clever Adwords Team with understanding the process and with my customisation options. Great app certainly worth it, they take all the hard work out of advertising and they do it at practically no cost. :)

Clever has been excellent in helping my new shopify store get the exposure on Google I need! Their support team is amazing at answering questions and helping customize my program for my specific needs. I highly recommend them (thanks Dave!). Andrea maudekids.com

Works great and seems to enhance SEO. David M. was very helpful and everything started working the day I enabled the app. Thanks!

Simply Amazing - quick painless and the whole process is streamlined - love it!
