Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The original FOMO, still holding strong" May 31, 2022 4.0 FOMO is one of the originals, and they do what they do very well. Their philosophy is a good one, in that they encourage you to use social proof in an honest way, and in a way that doesn't seem spammy. FOMO is fairly easy to use, especially for basic social proof, and with a little technical knowledge, you can do almost anything you want. I do wish their widget types were greater and there was easier integration with a few more tools. Pros FOMO doesn't overwhelm you with options. It is powerful, but doesn't throw everything in there. This might seem bad, but if you just need social proof popups and similar widgets, it does it, and it does it very well. I also love that it offers options for integrating with virtually any website or online system. And the onboarding is very slick. Cons Integrating FOMO can take a little more legwork. It can integrate with virtually any website, and bring in data from most places you would want, but it's not as easy as some other tools. You don't have to be a developer to integrate it, but you do need to dig into the code a little more. And many integrations require development knowledge through APIs. If you just need simple social proof, you don't need to dig into all that though. Review Source AH Andri H. Instructor Music Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Fomo is the one" November 5, 2021 5.0 Excellent. Pros Well featured, cleanly designed and laid out, easy to use integrations. Cons Could do with more templates (and the ability to save adjusted templates somewhere). Alternatives considered [ProveSource](https://www.capterra.com/p/178762/ProveSource/) Reason for choosing Fomo 1) Fomo's wonderful branding caught my eye 2) Their reasoning behind the product is hard to argue with, and they are open in their communication about competitors and even alternatives they recommend (see their blog) 3) Support is impeccable 4) Integrations work well 5) The backend is really well designed, and what customers see looks good and is quite customisable Review Source Jordan R. Owner Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to use " May 21, 2018 4.0 I don't think it increased sales, but it was a good feature to have, it just needed to be customized to be a little less spammy and it looked professional Pros Works exactly as described. Did have a good notification design and ease of use for the interface. It worked great and required zero technical skills Cons Wish there were more customization options for number of notifications/ for how long ago the customer pops up and in what order. Review Source Fabrizio S. Digital Consultant Internet Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The best tool for social Proof notification and more " November 3, 2021 5.0 Super happy. Works well, it's fast, totally customizable and the support is amazing, always prompt to help and resolve any issue. It's been great and i'm glad i decided to go with them. Pros Customization and ease of use. it's very complete and offers a lot more than the average tool. I like to be able to perfectly customize the notification and add custom data. To me it was very important to integrate with prestashop natively and FOMO was the right choice Cons Nothing. For what it does it's perfect, i will not choose another tool instead of them Review Source Johnny S. Owner Operator Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It easy and has all the bells and whistles" July 13, 2021 5.0 Pros Integration was quick and loaded with options Cons They really did their homework. It was easy to use and they have many options available that i don't use but it's nice to know they're always providing options and staying ahead of the curve. Review Source Ryan W. Founder Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Social Proof is the Best Proof" July 31, 2019 5.0 Pros It does what it says it would do which is provide social proof to users that others are buying your product(s). This gives you instant credibility and trust because someone is likely to follow what other people do. Cons There isn't much to dislike about this product! Review Source David B. CEO Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use and Amazing Customer Service" October 11, 2017 5.0 Customer engagement and sales. Pros The team behind the software has been very good at working with me to explain how things work. One of the customer rep has been exceptional and patient walking me through set up and answering any questions that come up. The insights help me to fine tune the events. I highly recommend FOMO. This tool helps drive customers to explore deeper into the store further driving sales. Cons If I had to pick something I like least - and this is a hard one - I would say the interface of the dashboard feels clunky, but really that is minor. Review Source Ryan S. Email & Content Marketing Manager Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Has helped us improve conversion rate + app has unmatched customer service" September 6, 2018 5.0 Pros I like how easy it was to integrate with shopify. Had it setup within minutes. Customer support is next level. Prior to using shopify, we used FOMO with a different shopping cart that didn't have an easy integration. FOMO support helped us get a custom integration setup so it would work with that cart. Cons Can't think of any negative aspects of the FOMO app at this point. Review Source Mat O Flynn Owner Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Fomo is incredibly easy to set up and works on autopilot to increase our website conversions." October 11, 2017 5.0 Increased product visibility and conversions. Pros Fomo is incredibly easy to set up and works on autopilot to increase our website conversions. I love how it seamlessly integrates with Drip and WooCommerce and is nowhere near to slowing down in the social proof space. Review Source Nick Kretz ❤️ 📈 �. COO Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great piece of software to help boost ecommerce sales!" July 10, 2020 5.0 Overall, happy with the service. My site is getting too much traffic for the basic plan and I'm not making too much sales from the tool but it is paying for itself so going to keep it running as I think it's a great visual tool to get people's attention on my website. Pros \-Visually appealing -Easy to customize -Love that you can measure performance/see conversions tied to click-thru from Fomo Cons The Squarespace integration wasn't as easy as I thought it was going to be and had to spend sometime with support troubleshooting. I'm guessing its more Squarespace's fault than Fomo's because support was pretty quick to assist. Review Source YP Yigit P. CTO Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Highly Recommended, Backend works like a clock. " August 15, 2024 5.0 We are using Fomo for our online retailer over a year. Very happy. The backend is flawless, delivers what is promised and goes a mile beyond. Support helped me optimize my results. Pros Definately boosts the sales. We have been using Fomo for a year. Support is very good , understanding and helpful. Premium service. Highly Recommended. Cons Flexible payment per view will be good. Also, unqiue visitors instead of notifications can be a good option. Review Source Response from Fomo August 22, 2024 Thank you for the fantastic feedback & for sharing it here. We're so glad Fomo is a profitable add-on to your website. We will look at ways to incorporate your ideas in future updates. DL David L. Owner E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A Pain Or A Booster?" April 19, 2019 5.0 Wondering how much the founder bought a domain name like that? Hmm... Pros Many marketers like to use a tool like this in order to boost their sales. The pros of this tool? - plenty of integrations. They've got integration with most of the popular tools in the market. - easy to use, the dashboard is pretty straightforward and comes with an analytics section. - their uniqueness vs similar tools in the market is theirs come with different display options a.k.a Feed Display and lately Portal display. You might find these two options useful if you think the common bottom left corner pop up irritating. I personally choose FOMO because of this. - lastly, their support is pretty fast too. Cons \- I think the only Cons with this tool is their charges that is slightly higher compared to other similar tools in the market. But since they are offering more features, I still think it is fair and not overpricing. To me, I prefer to display the FOMO in a more subtle way. Review Source JH Jon H. E-Commerce Manager Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "FOMO has helped us increase sales" August 14, 2019 5.0 We have had a great experience with FOMO. It helped increase our holiday sales dramatically this past year. Pros This is a great app. It is customizable. The function that it offers is such a great idea. The Fear Of Missing Out is a great motivator in online sales. We have multiple​ clicks on the FOMO popups/alerts every day. It works even when sales are low. It rotates sales and makes your site look as if it's​ very busy with current sales. You can customize the look and placement of the alerts. Cons No Cons. It does what it says it should do. Review Source AC Andrew C. Owner Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "It’s easy and it works!" October 2, 2020 5.0 I like that it helps to build confidence in my store, in the eyes of visitors, by showing that others are shopping there. I also see many occasions where I sell one unit of a slow mover and within hours I sell another. I attribute this to FOMO popups. Pros This product is easily set up on a Shopify store. It definitely drives conversions by showing website visitors that the site is busy and others are buying. Cons I wish the pop up was more customizable - there only a few options / colour schemes / layouts available. Review Source SC Steve C. Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Never before have I had such awesome support" February 23, 2017 5.0 I've struggled with plug-ins for my website ever since, well, ever since I've had a website. I wanted to test this social proof extension, but it wasn't working on my site. The developer, responded better than I have ever known, with prompt and considered support to get his software working on my site - and now it does - exactly as it should. As a marketing agency I wanted to test this on one of my own sites prior to recommending to clients - I see great value in what is being developed here and would encourage others to take a look. I already have a number of client sites I am keen to sign up for the service. We all know how important social proof is in our own purchases - I found this software through a recommendation on twitter! I can wholeheartedly recommend Ryan and the team at fomo - not only is it a great product, but they are so great to work with. P.S. I rarely gush... but this was a truly special experience. Pros It is simple yet effective Cons As yet, nothing Review Source JM Jonathan M. System Administrator Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Option for Our Business" February 24, 2022 4.0 While the software was a little tricky to set up and get working, we have been very happy with its features and functions. We tested a number of other social proof and fomo apps but none of them had the number of features that FOMO has. Additionally, we found FOMO to be significantly more customizable. We were also incredibly impressed with the support team at FOMO. They were friendly, responsive, and very helpful. We are very happy we chose FOMO as our social proof partner. Pros Excellent support. Tremendous feature set. Highly configurable. Cons A little tricky to get it all working properly. Reason for choosing Fomo More features. Inline options. More customizable. Better support. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer UX Designer Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Exactly what we wanted" January 15, 2018 5.0 Pros Great marketing tool. It makes the site feel more "active". It hasn't been tested against a variation yet though. Cons Can get expensive very quickly. It's hard to estimate initial costs. Some people complain that the notifications are distracting. Review Source RL Rachael L. Founder Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Business School Selling Techniques in Action" October 11, 2017 5.0 Pros The most useful class I took during my MBA was about how to influence others. Selling psychology has become a favorite topic of mine as it relates to eCommerce. The Fomo app allows me to put psychology theory into action. And customers respond well to it! Even friends have mentioned how cool it was to see what people were buying when they were shopping on the site. Cons The cost is a little high for the value it adds. I'm also afraid that it takes too long to load on my site. Review Source RV Robertas V. CMO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Social Proof Tool That You Can Find" January 27, 2021 5.0 Pros Integration is super easy compared to another competitor of Fomo that we have been using, just one line of code in the header does all the necessary work. Integrations like "Trustpilot reviews notification" is a gem. Seamless editing of the notifications and their rules are fantastic. Cons At first, it seemed a lot to take in and learn, but with their short guides you can learn everything that is needed. Review Source DG Daniel G. E-Commerce Manager Wine and Spirits Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "FOMO has helped increase conversions better than imagined." May 21, 2018 5.0 Increases conversions and helps customers make decisions regarding what to purchase. Pros What I like most about this software is that it helps new, less experienced customers easily decide which products to purchase based on what other customers are buying. When buying spirits online, there are so many choices and it can be overwhelming for first time visitors. But when they choose a product based on popups that show product reviews, number of purchases per product, and more, it gives them peace of mind knowing that others have already tried and enjoyed the product. Cons We have been using FOMO for only a few months but there have been no cons so far. Some minor issues with WooCommerce on mobile. But the issues have since disappeared after WooCommerce was updated. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Co-Creator Entertainment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Love the ease of setup" October 15, 2018 5.0 I am still in my first month of giving it a try, but so far our conversations have been great and I'm really interested to see the ROI we achieve. Pros FOMO was so easy to set up. We use CrateJoy and the integration was seamless. Cons It doesn't seem like the CrateJoy integration offers to ability to exclude certain products like their other integrations do (yet?). We occasionally have secret sales and items so we've had to come up with work arounds for these. Review Source SE Saleem E. Founder Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Perfect software that works exactly as described with the best customer service I've ever had." May 26, 2017 5.0 Pros It's simple, painless, and effective. I set it up over 6 months ago and and for the most part it's been on autopilot since. The few times I ran into trouble, customer service was incredible -- they literally implemented a new feature that I requested within days. Review Source JA Jinnie A. Marketing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to install, quick results" April 10, 2018 5.0 Social proof brought directly to our customers as they shop our website. Pros This product was recommended to us several of our marketing partners and we skeptically implemented. It was relatively easy to install and has demonstrated results. Cons We had some minor issue with setup and implementation but their team was able to resolve them quickly. We used their chat function to resolve these issues. Review Source Alex K. Creative Director Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Awesome Product. Great Support." January 9, 2018 5.0 Pros I like the features and list of integrations. The Connect feature is a real game changer in terms of helping non savvy people like myself use the power of this platform. Cons I feel like the pricing could be a little lower considering there are so many other options and competitors out there. Review Source Luca T. Fondatore Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Really cool!" October 9, 2018 5.0 Pros I swapped to Fomo when I found out there was a lifetime deal for it! That's a great piece of software to engage customers with social proof and also many brilliant pieces of integration Cons interface can be a bit daunting at first, but no problem once you get to understand it Review Source Similar Products Featured ## Related categories [Push Notifications](https://www.capterra.com/push-notifications-software/)[Website Optimization Tools](https://www.capterra.com/website-optimization-tools-software/) ## Send me user reviews about this product ### Fill out the form and we'll send a list of the top-rated software based on real user reviews directly to your inbox.
