"I moved my Etsy shop from Prodigi to Papello and my 1-star reviews for shipping disappeared. With Papello I got started in minutes, not weeks. Customer service actually responds quickly too."
Hannah D., Etsy Seller
"Switched from Prodigi to Papello for the listing creator tool. Being able to publish products to multiple stores at once saves me hours. The automated ordering is brilliant."
Oliver S., Shopify Store Owner
"Prodigi felt like it was built for big companies. Papello is perfect for independent artists - simple dashboard, fast shipping, great quality."
Emma P., WooCommerce Seller
"The sample pack convinced me to switch. Quality matches Prodigi but the service is more personal and shipping is faster for my UK customers."
Ben J., Independent Artist
