We don't have any specific agency plans, but since our pricing is site based, an agency can push out multiple sites for clients and let them upgrade as necessary. Happy to chat further - finbarr [@] getshogun.com.
When you hit publish on the demo, it publishes your modified page to demo.getshogun.com/your-demo-uuid.
Documentation definitely needs some work!
The integration is platform specific. For example, if you're using rails you just drop in a gem and it works. I'm the CTO so please feel free to reach out with any more questions - finbarr [@] getshogun.com.
Sorry about that, the documentation is certainly scant right now. The beauty of Shogun is that you don't have to do anything beyond dropping in the gem and setting the ENV variables. When you publish a page in Shogun, it will be live at the path you set within a few seconds in your application, using your existing application layout.
This makes a lot of sense for companies who have marketers that rely on engineering to make web changes. It's an embeddable CMS, so I don't have to install a whole 'nother stack with a different login to get it going.
It's a pain in the ass for the dev to do some standard marketing that has to be responsive, especially if the text is left justified with some sort of background image that has to be adjusted for every responsive breakpoint. And marketing feels like devs are just dragging their feet, and can't get the stuff done fast enough to do A/B tests, ad tests, and other experiments.
We think the price is reasonable when you compare it to the cost of maintaining web pages by hand. Engineering time tends to be pretty expensive (in many cases upwards of $100/hr). Shogun enables anyone on your team to manage your website with ease, which could save multiple engineering hours per day/week depending on how many pages you have.
Well, based on my experience, the pricing is way above the expectations - there were similar tools priced at $10-15/month with no limits, and even they weren't very successful.

1) $150 a month, 1 user, 10 pages?
How about I throw up wordpress, get thrivethemes and then as many pages as I want and as many users and $0 a month?
2) I'm not sure why anyone would want this. There are better things out there, like clickfunnels. Which is 10x better than this.
3) Finally, any decent agency will have a developer. It's pretty trivial to knock something like this up and have an in-house solution, again for $0.
I know, because I made my own for my own business and my own media buyers to use. I don't get bugged any more for developing pages.
