SmileBox Reviews Summary

Smilebox has garnered a reputation for offering creative design tools that users appreciate for their potential and ease of use. However, the company faces significant criticism regarding its pricing structure, with many customers feeling misled by subscription terms and unexpected charges. Complaints about poor customer service, including a lack of phone support and difficulty in canceling subscriptions, are prevalent. Overall, while the product has loyal users, the negative sentiments surrounding billing practices and inadequate support suggest a pressing need for Smilebox to enhance transparency and customer service to retain its user base.

Easy & Fun
April 29, 2017

I really like the program! Just one thing that could use some tighten your music; It's choppy. I understand money helps to personalize those fine touches but to spend the money I'd have to know its not going to be the same quality

Great app
April 28, 2017

Fairly simple and straightforward to use. Great way to personalize and keep pics.My one complaint is that this review has to be 100 words, which is a pain.

I enjoyed using the 7 day free trial and made some neat 20 year HS reunion flyers. I will be back when the event date gets closer for sure.

The best!
April 18, 2017

The Smilebox template was very intuitive and easy to use. I was also amazed at the speed of the uploading of photos and the operations of the template. After hours of frustration with other programs. I was lucky to find Smilebox.

I do not recommend...
April 17, 2017

Terrible customer service. When you try to call the phone number, they say it is not monitored so they advise to use the email address. When you do that it is automated somehow and you get a email back that doesn't really answer your question. I need to get a refund for my pictures that i was not satisfied with as the photo book part is very confusing on the site. It did not come out as i wanted. Not even made into a book. I asked through email to not produce the book as i knew it wasn't going to be correct. I am asking for a reimbursement on my credit card and nothing solved yet. The email isn't responding like it understands my issue. It has been a month since the first email and i have not gotten anything resolved with them yet. So i suggest that you don't use them, you use Shutterfly. Shutterfly is cheaper and has coupons often for all kinds of picture needs such as albums, gifts, ect. I give them a zero rating. I am very dissatisfied with the company and especially with the way they chose to communicate with us customers.

I love how easy it is to use, but I wish I can have more fonts and different video formats, like mp4.

Awesome
April 6, 2017

Smilebox is so easy to create the perfect slide show! I have had it for about 4 years, and love it! I believe everyone should try it, but don't load Printshop 4.0Professional because it will lock up Smilebox (my experience).
