Great Side Cart
I don't give a lot of reviews but just wanted to say thank you for creating a great FREE plugin that actually works on a lot of themes. I use this on a lot of the sites I have been developing without any issues. I have tried others but this one is the best. Thank you!

Best Cart Plugin & Support
I am a business owner and do a lot of work on my website. I really appreciate the time that Cartflows has put into not only their entire suite of funnel products but also the Modern Cart plugin. I love all of the backend and customization options. I have had zero issues with installation or performance. And above all I am writing a review because their support team is the best. I have 80+ plugins and Cartflows offers the best in technical knowledge and customer service. I would highly recommend Cartflows Modern Cart and their other suite of plugins for an entire ecosystem of funnel products. There will come a time when you need to rely on their expertise and they will be there for you! Larry W./Yummyworks LLC

Modern Cart and translations
I encountered a problem updating the Modern Cart plugin and, in addition, I wanted to translate titles on pages that were a bit problematic to translate, and as usual, the support team did an excellent job and didn't let up until the problem was resolved…well done, keep up the good work!

Useful Plugin and Responsive Support
Modern Cart for WooCommerce is a useful and practical plugin that improves the cart experience. I contacted support to report an issue related to tax calculations in the cart, and they informed me that it will be fixed in an upcoming update. Based on this experience, I have a positive opinion of both the plugin and the support team. Overall, I've had good experiences with this company's plugins.
