VERDICT

Should I use PushAlert?

Push notifications for web and mobile browsers - pushalert.co

Depends. Buy if you run a small Shopify or WordPress site and want cheap cart-recovery push. Skip if you need enterprise security documentation, omnichannel, or a large vendor.

Gotchas - check before you buy

medium

Security page is a 404 — no public security docs for procurement review.

Guess: tiers likely scale by subscriber count — confirm caps before list-building campaigns.

medium

Guess: push subscriber lists rarely port cleanly; plan your export path before leaving.
