About the Shopify business

Algi creates delicious, purposed driven food products centred around algae. Our first product is the IMPACT Bar, an endurance bar high in iron, protein, and omegas and is ideal for maintaining energy levels during long duration activities. The first two flavours of the IMPACT Bar was launched in September 2021. A third flavour and a new product line will be launching later this year.

Describe the experience

Easy to use and adjust, especially for someone with no design or coding experience. There are some small customizations that would be great, like reformatting pages such as product pages to better showcase some features of our products. Overall, really enjoying the theme and have had a great experience.

Help with coding to customize pages, designed with someone who has no coding experience in mind. More support and design tips for first time Shopify users would be great.

About the Shopify business

We manufacture and sell a baseball thumb guard. Our product was designed and invented by our founder. We launched 2.5 years ago. Our target market is baseball and softball players from the pros down to youth players. We have been growing rapidly and we are on the hands of many MLB players with many teams using us.

Describe the experience

The theme has been easy to use and functional for us on many levels. We found a great email marketing manager with Red Cape agency. Top Apps: Draginblog, Klaviyo, Gorgias, Air inc, Textile, AirCall and Candyrack, Wonderment. We like Draginblog because it not only helps with SEO, but it is a much better blog platform than what comes with Shopify. Klaviyo has been a good tool, especially as we have grown, the analytics are helpful. Gorgias is a great CRM tool and really helps with keeping track of customer correspondence and integrates well with Shopify to help save time. Wonderment is a nice tool to add some branding to tracking for our customers and it also alerts us to delayed or lost packages so we can get out in front of that with our customers. Candyrack works well as an upsale app. They have great customer service and the app looks nice on the website. AirCall and Textline integrate well with Shopify.

We chose Motion theme because we thought it looked like the best theme for our sports store. We like that we can have a header video which highlights our product well. It's hard to know when starting out what theme will work best in the long run, but, so far this theme has been great for us. The developers are responsive, so we appreciate that.

About the Shopify business

Suniela Beach makes unique portable shade products for the beach or the park. We sell to customers all over the world. We launched in 2015 and our target market is women and young families, aged 30-50. We're experiencing growth every year and increased brand awareness around the globe.

Describe the experience

Really enjoyed the Motion theme, right from the beginning it enabled me to build a professional and beautiful online store for which I've received lots of great feedback about. Two years ago I hired a developer to use the Motion theme as a base for a brand new custom theme build for me, as there were customizations I wanted to add to the visual/ branded feel.. and we've been really happy with it.

Because I purchased the theme from your website instead of directly through the Shopify theme store I didn't receive automatic updates with new features. Maybe a disclaimer on the website that it's much more user friendly to pay through the Shopify app store instead would be nice.

About the Shopify business

We have a unique patented design for work gloves that we manufacture and sell. It's an ergonomic fit that follows the natural curvature of your hand. This design leads to less fatigue and improved dexterity when using the gloves. We started out just making rodeo gloves, but have since diversified.

Describe the experience

I wasn't here when we initially started using the theme, but I've had great customer service when any issues arise. Support for the theme is only an email away and they are very thorough in the instructions to resolve whatever issue you're facing. I would highly recommend this theme to anyone looking for a Shopify theme.

The only issue I have was the time when I get response. I'd like to be able to fix issues immediately, but I believe customer service is on the other hemisphere so my responses were between 12pm and 6am local time.

About the Shopify business

MP Detailing is a full spectrum detailing center specializing in a variety of automotive services: all types of detailing, ceramic coatings, paint protection films, detailing supplies etc. We launched in Ottawa, Canada in 2021 and are serving Ottawa area only. We are currently using Shopify website and pos. Our target clientele locates and resides in Ottawa.

Describe the experience

Overall, we have been pretty satisfied with Motion Shopify theme. We found it really easy to set up; customize using our logo, brand colors and font as well as to implement some minor customizations coding. Since we are not primary an online store (even though we do sell some detailing products), we are mainly focusing on services - appointments based. Thus we needed to install a scheduling app and the theme allowed it pretty easily. We also noticed that Motion is a decently quick theme which is awesome for SEO ranking and overall user experience. The only comment that I would have (since we own 3 Shopify businesses) that comparing to some other themes, Motion may have less sections (ready options) available than others.

I would suggest adding more sections (pre-made ones) and continue working on the awesome theme (we truly enjoy it!) Of course, we will always appreciate faster speed, even though the existing one is pretty impressive.

About the Shopify business

We are a Canadian honeybee research and product development company that sells innovative beekeeping products and services for hobby beekeepers through Shopify. We launched our website in June of 2022. We are doing moderately well and looking for a revamp in the next few months as we expand our product line.

Describe the experience

The biggest asset of this theme is the video that plays as soon as someone visits the website. It's eye-catching and unique. The functionality of our product with moving bees is integral to showing in a motion format. We find pasting in HTML does work well. We are frustrated with the number of content columns we can use and the limited fonts available.

As mentioned in the previous section, increasing the number of content sections would be good, as we were initially using this as a landing page and that is part of this. We also find difficulty with just adding simple photos as a section, would like to see that changed. Really appreciate the movement aspect!

About the Shopify business

Who started that Jetset Squad two years ago and chose the Motion theme for our Shopify website mainly because of how interactive and simple it was for mobile displays. We sell group trips, travel guides and have trip planning services for luxury travelers who want to explore the world and meet other like-minded people on that journey.

Describe the experience

We love it the Motion theme is pretty straightforward and easy to use especially the slight animations that it offers throughout our website is a great touch. Everything on the Motion team runs pretty seamlessly and looks really good on mobile which we feel is very important because most people visit our website on their phones or tablets.

It would be nice to make the updating process from one version to another a bit easier because if you have code in the background, it won’t update automatically in our experience

About the Shopify business

We sell smell proof accessories for people to store their herbs and spices. We started in 2018. We currently sell to Canada and the US direct to consumer as well as wholesale clients. One of our best sellers is our smell proof aluminum tubes and handmade walnut trays.

Describe the experience

What made me pick this theme was the option to add a video. The other themes only offer a YouTube integration where the viewer has to click play. In this theme, it automatically plays for the viewer which is so nice. I love all the other "motion" annotations in the theme as well.
