### 2/5 — Worst App ever

*2026-05-18*

No matter how many updates this app has NOTHING GETS FIXED. Every update brings new bugs that customer service has no idea how to fix. New updates just for GUI no actual coding fixes because all the bugs have been here from day ONE.

### 1/5 — User

*2024-08-09, version 13.0.1*

Rubbish, absolutely rubbish 
Would give zero stars but had to give one

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-08-06, version 12.0.12*

It’s truly surprising how bad this application is while still being the only option used by many companies. Painful. Makes my life harder.

### 1/5 — What is this app?

*2024-02-15, version 12.0.5*

Please could somebody tell me what the alternative is?

### 1/5 — Dreadful

*2024-02-13, version 12.0.5*

All the issues that have been mentioned by others and still these problems persist. 2 years into using this platform and we still can’t document work we have done, and the  support from India when things go wrong is a complete joke.

### 1/5 — Absolutely Dire

*2024-02-09, version 12.0.4*

Painfully rubbish

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2024-02-07, version 12.0.4*

I know it sounds impossible but every time they update this app it get worse.  Which is saying a lot because the app was god awful before the updates. Hard to imagine they could make it worse, but they succeeded in doing that.

### 1/5 — Terrible - Give up

*2024-02-05, version 12.0.4*

App is awful. Takes too long to sync, crashes and needs force closing frequently. Still unable to type work performed directly in the app, needs typing in a note app and copy and pasting into pulsar. App unable to update jobs in calendar without a manual sync even though the app sends a notification to say you’ve received a new job. 

Now jobs disappear on the app and it closes when you attempt to sync, fix one issue and three more appear. Will be a happy day when the company scrap this failed system, don’t give up the day job :)

### 1/5 — Worst ever experience with a service app

*2024-02-05, version 12.0.4*

Shocking how this has been released without any serious testing Why has this even been released when the app hasn’t the most basic of requirements a background update. The money this must have cost in downtime for engineers would have surely been better spent on developing the app prior to release!!! No stars as we are currently in the year of 2024 and the latest release 12.04 has more bugs than the original app!!!

### 1/5 — Issues

*2024-02-02, version 12.0.3*

New update v12 won’t sync my time. Keeps closing

### 1/5 — Fails in spectacular fashion

*2024-02-02, version 12.0.3*

I updated this by mistake and now it is always crashing. Any work order I carry over to the next day just disappears out of the app. It was almost useful for previous versions as I was able to link outlook email and email work orders. Carry we get the previous version back?

### 1/5 — Absolutely junk

*2024-02-02, version 12.0.3*

This version is worse the the old version. Every time I sync it just crashes. This should be rebaked to titanic because it’s always syncing and can’t stay up.

### 1/5 — Horrendous

*2024-01-22, version 12.0.0*

This app is not what you want when running a business, always having issues where you can’t log in, can’t get onsite on a work order, and is always a pain to navigate if I could give 0 stars I would

### 1/5 — My first time reviewing an app

*2023-11-18, version 11.0.11*

Horrible app. Works maybe 80% of the time. It’s almost like the app is cursed.

### 1/5 — No access to photo album

*2023-11-11*

Cannot upload picture event is my setting should allow full access

### 1/5 — Clunky UI and work flow

*2023-09-28, version 11.0.10*

The user interface is clunky and the work flow has far too many steps to log on and off a appointment.

Don’t try to sync if your signal is not great else it’ll either fail or cause a database corruption (this has happened multiple times) or it’ll log you forcing a re-login. Recently had a database corruption and several unrecognised errors resulting in the app needing to be deleted and reinstalled.

### 1/5 — Total garbage

*2023-09-27, version 11.0.10*

This app is completely useless

### 1/5 — If this is the best they can offer

*2023-09-06, version 11.0.10*

If this is the the best they can offer I would through the towel in.

### 1/5 — The worst application slow and 90s design

*2023-08-31, version 11.0.10*

It’s slow requires synch all the time. Interface is poor. School project can do better design than this. Interface is looks like old 90s design. 

The worst application I have ever used. Avoid it if not forced by your company.

### 1/5 — It’s full of BUGS

*2026-06-04*

This is a POS app that is SLOW, BUGGY and deserves negative stars

### 1/5 — JP

*2026-05-25, version 18.0.6*

If u like being stuck in a  stationary traffic jam then this apps for u👎

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2026-05-15, version 18.0.4*

I know it sounds impossible but every time they update this app it get worse.  Which is saying a lot because the app was god awful before the updates. Hard to imagine they could make it worse, but they succeeded in doing that.

Update:  after a few more updates I can confirm the app still sucks.

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2026-05-14*

Too slow and colapse too much

### 1/5 — App Store Needs to Allow Negative Stars

*2026-05-12*

This app is the absolute worse part of my job.

### 1/5 — Background Refresh forced ON

*2025-04-19, version 15.0.1*

Why is 15.0.1 is forced to run in background (we cannot toggle it off) while the sync doesn’t work while in minimized?

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-04-04, version 14.0.3*

Should have given it 0 stars. Worst app I’ve ever used.

### 1/5 — The only app that gets worse as it goes along

*2024-11-14, version 13.0.3*

The only app that gets worse as it goes along

### 1/5 — If only I could give 0 stars

*2024-09-10, version 13.0.2*

Worst app I have ever used

### 1/5 — Never used a more worthless app

*2024-08-10, version 13.0.1*

This is the biggest waste. More trouble than it is worth. More man hours wasted.

### 5/5 — Excellent for Businees

*2026-06-24, version 18.0.6*

I have used this app for a few years now. The ease in navigating work orders and being able to log onto more than one job, so you can work between the jobs is really good. The only downside side is working offline can drain the battery on your phone.

It would be nice to be able to use this app on a Pc.

### 5/5 — User Friendly

*2022-11-16, version 9.0.2*

At first using the pulsar app I found it really time consuming and drained my battery.

Now I have been using this on a more up-to date phone I have found it a joy to use. I have found it to be more user friendly compared to other systems I have used in the passed making my job much easier throughout the day. 

The only negative is that using it on a old phone can cause issues.

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2019-02-05, version 3.1.1*

Update Feb 2019
Still working well but has very limited functions in free version.  

Older app but have been using on Windows 10 and now trying iPad app.

Has been working offline and syncing.

### 5/5 — The new release is awesome

*2014-05-09*

With this new release searching through records is pretty fast and there are many cool features that come in handy for a truly mobile salesforce user. Kudos to the team!

### 5/5 — Great SFDC app for offline use and superior customer service

*2013-10-24, version 2.2.5*

This is an outstanding app for Salesforce user to enter and search contacts, leads, and opportunities. I loaded a previous version this summer and was impressed with the ease of use and functionality for data entry in the field in front of customers. I had a serious glitch while using iOS 5.1 on iPad1 where my data would disappear before it could be saved. The Luminex Tech Team was deployed by the CEO and they resolved it rather quickly and the follow up was magnificent !! I felt as if the company was part of my team !! That is superior customer service. If you use an iPad in the field, have a SFDC license, and don't want the inconsistency of a Wifi/3G/4G connection, then this app is a must have !!!

Looking forward to upgrading to the iOS7 version as soon as I upgrade the iPad.

Thrilled to be Using

### 5/5 — Pulsar for Salesforce

*2013-08-02*

This app is great for Sales Management and Sales Representatives.   The speed to document information is much faster than on the salesforce website.   The app also has great pipeline reporting.   LinkedIn users will also love this app as it functions very well to show your LinkedIn contacts within the account page.  Very innovative and easy to use application!

### 5/5 — Software/Web Developer

*2013-07-23*

Pulsar for Salesforce provides a clean UI that allows our business to effectively access and edit our data, whether we are online or not.  For users looking for this type of simple, yet powerful capability, this is undoubtedly the best app available.

### 5/5 — Great app with great customer service

*2013-06-15*

I've used this app for several months now and love it.  The app gives me all of my information in a format that I can can easily view and modify.  Whenever I've had an issue, their support staff has responded very quickly to understand the problem and provide an update to correct the issue.  Additionally, they follow up after the update to ensure that the issue has been resolved.  What more can you ask for?  Thank you Luminix.

### 5/5 — Very User Friendly

*2013-06-13*

One of my colleagues introduced Pulsar to my Manager and the entire team started using it.  What I like most about the app is that it allows me to stay on top of my SFDC entries, even while on the road/without wi-fi access.  The leadership team at Pulsar has consistently gone above and beyond in regard to training and overall customer service. For me, a sales rep that likes to be out in the field and not chained to my desk doing paperwork, Pulsar is a great solution.

### 5/5 — Great App for use in the field!

*2013-06-07*

Pulsar has been a great resource for my team of outside sales reps. They each have a customer list of over 200 clients, and are constantly out in the field doing training, consulting, and customer meetings. This app makes their data entry in SFDC much easier, and I have seen a 100% increase in activity in SFDC from two of my reps that had historically not found the time to get in and make entries.  It truly makes SFDC a much more useful tool in the field!
