Alibaba Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company is mixed, with some customers appreciating the variety and affordability of products offered. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding customer service and support. Many users report frustrating experiences with delayed refunds, ineffective communication, and unresolved product quality issues, often feeling misled by the company's assurances. The Trade Assurance program is frequently described as inadequate, failing to protect buyers effectively. This combination of positive product experiences and pervasive service challenges suggests a need for improved customer support and better oversight of suppliers to enhance overall customer satisfaction.

July 9, 2020

Have done busniss with Alibaba for the past 6 years.

Because such people is ruining Alibaba' s name and reputation.

Alibaba allowed me to contact several suppliers for a product I was interested in purchasing. After getting quotes from the suppliers, I chose one and proceeded with making a transaction with the supplier. Alibaba alerted me by email when the supplier or other supplier had left me a message and I was completely informed of the status of my transaction as it progressed. There were many helpful people in first transaction on this webisite and allowed me to do so with minimal effort. This full service website is excellent for making any transaction as it is a high quality operation.

Probably the safest payment platform in the world as you are guaranteed your money back should your order not comply.

I encountered a very bad experience on Alibaba. I paid $******* on Alibaba through their Trade Assurance. The shipping method in the sales contract is Express. However, the seller failed to do it. I had to wait 2 months to get the goods! We suffered a big loss because of the late shipment. But Alibaba did not help me anything to get the refund or compensation although i submitted all the sufficient evidences. Alibaba promises thousand things if the customers use their Trade Assurance, but when a dispute happens they will not support anything. The dispute process takes extremely long, then finally you will get the answer that you can not get a refund nor return the goods. So stay away from Alibaba if you do not want to lose money!

A great experience
July 9, 2020

As a first time user Alibaba I was unsure of what to expect but I am now very happy to say it was a pleasure and wish I had used the site a long time ago. Great communications and very quick turn around times I could not have asked for more. The quality of the product is far better than I expected

We really like this supplier. They delivered high quality product, on time and took great care during the entire process.

We'll certainly work with them again and would recommend their services to anyone interested in EKG Patches.

Alibaba is the only place to go for production and quality assurance for doing business with China. They are a full service company that knows the "ropes" for quality production and financial transactions with a foreign country. Their fees are fair and well worth the service provided.

Spend some time on the instructional videos before you start your order process. I jumped right in and found the process a bit cumbersome. Now that I have gotten more familiar I like it. I have only ordered samples at this point so I can't comment on Trade Assurance but so far so good

Great supplier
July 8, 2020

We now had our 3rd delivery of parts from this supplier and the part quality is good.
Communication with Zimon in English is clear with fast response.
Delivery times are held and both CNC machined aluminium parts as well as laser cut stainless steel part quality is high.
Many thanks from Knocktop in Scotland
