I haven’t had good luck with Gooten…

I haven’t had good luck with Gooten yet. I do really like their user friendly app and the fact that it synchronizes to two stores. I can’t get them to answer any of the requests I have made. No refunds have been issued for products that were made bad-low quality t-shirts that are the wrong size. Now, after making all the products and selling them I had to deactivate them from my listings. I’ve had 3-4 very angry customers and it is very embarrassing. I think it will ruin my shop ratings.

Gooten makes selling canvas very easy and profitable

I use Gooten for canvas frames on three different stores. They have the best pricing, fast shipping and the quality is top notch.

Great Customer Service

I have used Gooten as a POD fulfillment service for the past three years and I have never had any of the issues that so many other experiences w/their competitors. If I have any questions, their customer service is always top-notch. I highly recommend entrusting your business needs to Gooten.

Great quality

Great quality, great variety of products.

Could improve by combining multiple items into single shipments, so that their customers pay less for shipping.

Hey there! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are so happy to hear you are enjoying our catalog as we work hard to provide a broad variety of excellent products. We appreciate your feedback about shipping. In the instance you described of having two separate shipments this is because the items are printed from two separate vendors. You are charged for two packages because they are being shipped from two separate locations. You can read more on our website under our "All About Shipping" post, specifically under the portion of "Shipping Details". We hope this helps you understand our process better. We appreciate you being a Gooten partner!

My favorite Print on Demand Supplier

I use multiple print on demand companies for my products and my business's and Gooten is my favorite one to use. The interface is super easy to use and they have a great selection of products. The turn around time is quick and I have never had any issues with delays. I've used customer service a couple times and they are quick and efficient to handle the issues on hand and back up their products 100%. I highly recommend.

Long time loyal Gooten User

I’ve utilized Gooten for my drop ship print on demand needs for the last few years. While several months during the “Covid-crisis” were a struggle, Gooten was not the only print on demand company, or company in general that dealt with delays, an overload of customer service inquiries, etc. so anyone complaining based off of that time period has not been with Gooten prior to Covid and has not noticed the very noticeable changes that have been implemented in the last few months. Product selection is great, shipping is a bit expensive but that’s the case everywhere, especially lately since USPS has recently raised their shipping costs AGAIN. Their website is easy to use, I personally don’t sync it to my Etsy shop and just manually submit orders as they come through to make sure everything is correct. Customer service response times could be a big faster, especially when it comes to a time sensitive emergent need, and the option to add a gift message to the packing slip would be amazing, but these are all things that seem to be in planning mode and I hope to see them implemented in the near future. I’ve used other print on demand companies and Gooten has remained my favorite, even through the difficult times so I still highly recommend them.

Overall great variety and I wish they will do more options for brands/branding!

So overall I really like the variety of products from Gooten and that they introduced dynamic routing which means lower shipping rates from this year on... let's hope that this does not lower the quality of the products/fulfillment. For the future I would wish that they can introduce more branding options, because as a brand you need places where you can put your logo/branding. And maybe someday we can see sewn labels or something like this? Hope Gooten will continue to add more fashionable and trendy products!

I love using Gooten overall

I love using Gooten overall. A lot of their products are great quality. Especially their printed calendars and other photo print options. While the prices of certain products (like the calendars) are quite high, I have found that the quality is necessary for the price. Most calendars are not made for true artistic quality, while Gootens are. That is why I will be returning to them this year to make more calendars.

I like Gooten as a supplier

I like Gooten as a supplier, their products allows variety and the products that can be created are unique. I appreciate their prices allowing my items in store to be lowered. Shipping is affordable and there is no design print charge. Highly recommended.

Great Prices and Service

I've been Gooten for over a year now and haven't had any issues. My orders have all gone out on time, so I've never had to contact support for anything yet. Plus the prices are a lot lower than other companies, so it helps me to make a decent profit.

1 Year falldown

1 Year ago, I would place 10-30 orders a day with Gooten, they were brilliant! 1 Year later they have fallen HARD! Website shows 1 Day production times, i am now on day 14. Orders arent turning up and they ve changed their customer support service and its gone to the dogs. When you do get a response, the team are nice and friendly, but hands are tied. I understand COVID 19 was a hard time, but other suppliers are super fast, incredibly efficient and Ive been really lucky to have a fall back. For Gooten, in this scenario, moving the company backwards will be better than moving forwards.

I have been using Gooten for 4 years now. I am beyond impressed with the quality of their products. The printing quality is beautiful! Their prices are the best I've seen in the print on demand world. The staff is very friendly and very helpful. I really appreciate the webinars they send out. Super helpful! I have all 5 star reviews on my website thanks to them. Can't see what they come out with next!

Horrible, Slow, Embarrassing Customer Support

If you value your time or have a company that may suffer from unexpected and indefinite delays, DO NOT GO WITH GOOTEN.

They cannot even service the simplest of customer support requests. For example, when you place an order on hold, they force you to go through their customer support ticket system to change the order status back to 'In progress'. However, as many other people have noted, THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NON EXISTENT. It takes days/weeks, not hours or minutes, to service issues that are trivial in nature (like changing order status).

Whoever is in charge of customer support needs to be fired, there is no excuse with modern resources for trivial support requests to take days.

I REPEAT. DO NOT RISK IT.

Wrong Items and No Reply to Help

I have several items in my Etsy shop using this printer Have used them for a few months and I'm starting to think I'm going to have to stop using them. I have 2 orders that have issues and I cannot receive a reply. One they sent a short sleeve shirt when the order was for long sleeves. The other a size 6 month was ordered and they received a 12 month. I understand mistakes happen but not replying to my requests for help for 2 days is not acceptable. I have customers who are unhappy and that reflects on me, not Gooten. I'm giving them one more day to respond and then I'll be looking for another provider.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are sad to hear you are less than satisfied, and we greatly apologize for the inconveniences you have experienced. We understand your concern around partner support, as we have been working diligently over the last 6 months to hire more staff, train, and increase our support efforts to allow for a better experience for you and all of our partners. Right now, we are looking at a 72 business hour SLA for all support requests. While we hope to improve this soon, the reality is that with the huge, unforeseen increase in demand due to COVID, we have had a less than easy experience in trying to keep up with this new demand.

The good news is, we are hiring more staff currently and are bettering our support platform to allow for a more efficient ease of use. Someone will be in touch with you within the 72 hour window, and once contacted we can get this worked out for you. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding.

I absolutely hate them! I was looking for a company to do my POD and ordered samples. There was a mix up in the shipping and I've been trying to contact them. They have ZERO customer service! Beware! They have my money, I have no product!!!

The website will probably shut down very soon I’m sure , they are clearly scam artists , stealing people’s money and not shipping products , they should be ashamed
