Rewind Backups

efficient communication

Your responsiveness, timeliness, and expert support throughout this process are incredibly appreciated. You went beyond simply answering my questions, and I’m very grateful that you took this back to your team and were able to provide the export. Thank you again for all your help!

I cancelled this and I've still been charged. I will update my review if they fix it, otherwise be warned they've doubled the cost I originally agreed to and now I can't unsubscribe and stop paying. Despite cancelling it weeks ago, I'm still being billed for it!

Great customer service. Quick and accurate help.

We thought this app will cost 9 USD a month... now we paid for long time around 40 to 50 USD ...

The customer service for the Rewind app is fantastic. Vitor spent significant time patiently providing comprehensive explanations (via email and video call) of all of the different elements of our plan and what we need to do to ensure our site can be safely restored if needed. There are certainly aspects to be aware of when using the app - things that cannot be backed up due to privacy, API complexities, etc. But, with help from their customer support, I now better understand what is backed-up and what is not, and can proceed with development plans knowing exactly what can be restored if need be.

Waited on meeting even though I was 9 minutes late and was courtiuos and helpful.

We lost our Website in Mar 26 while we were away. The 'bug' in the software was from Orderly emails. Rewind helped us recover our website from the backups taken by their product. A couple of learning from this exercise might help our customers:- 1. The entire website is not backup probably because some of the linkages is in Shopify code rather than within the database. 2. This would mean what we had to do - manual fixes. 3. You can get a file from Rewind that has some technical data on it for your own backup, however, unless you have access to a Shopify type test environment and a strong programming background, its pointless. In an environment where there are many vendors, Shopify and 3rd party Shopify approved vendors, what we have come to realise is that onus to fix the issue on a single suppier, is largely "absent". If the backup from Rewind does not work or fails to restore the site, the customer is on their own.

Rewind Backups was easy to install and started protecting our store data immediately. The interface is straightforward, and the features provide peace of mind knowing our Shopify data is being securely backed up. We did experience a login issue initially, but their support team was responsive, helpful, and followed through on all communication until everything was resolved. It’s reassuring to know our store data is protected, and we appreciate the reliability and support behind the application.

We migrated from Bigcommerce to Shopify. We trust Rewind to provide backups in case of any unfortunate data loss. We used Rewind on our Bigcommerce store and we are thrilled to be able to continue to use Rewind with Shopify. Great support. Very helpful!!

Over the years, Rewind's customer service has always replied quickly and has been exceptional. We haven't had to do anything but let the service do its job. We feel confident and safe using this product.

I have successfully restored in the past with Rewind. I used to have a good review for this app. We triggered a blog restore on a Friday and were not able to recover the data until one of their support members restored it manually on the folowing Tuesday. By that time, we were no longer getting traffic on previously highly ranked keyword. If this would have been product data, we would have been out of business for 3 days, since there was nobody on the other side to provide support. A backup tool must have integrity, availability and reliability. By being unable to restore, 2 of these were broken, and my trust on this app with them. Moving to another solution.

Thank-you Vitor! While new to Rewind, I had a small issue and got locked out of my account for a few days. This happened as my free trial was coming to and end. I do feel the confirmation to continue with my paid subscription was difficult, but help response was great.

Restore was blocked for 4 days in our other store. Nobody available for help over the weekend. I also don't like you cannot restore specific items. You either restore ALL blog posts or none, ALL products or none, ALL collections or none and so. Switching to other app.

Saved the day after another app deleted a ton of collection - get it, when something goes wrong you'll be glad you had it installed!

was free, they charged me 160 euros. not recommended

I can't imagine losing any of my data. Accidents happen and if you delete something by mistake, it's gone. Thanks to Rewind I don't have to worry about that. [Update] - Well it happened :( I had two products open that were very similar and I mistakenly made some of the edits to the wrong one. I went to the Rewind app, found the right version and restored the page. It worked beautifully! [3–31-26 Update] Another app in my store inadvertently deleted all my smart collections. Was able to restore them with Rewind. And their support staff sent me a PDF of my menus so I could recreate them. The other app support wasn’t much help.

Used this for more than 3 years. Logged in today and noticed that our account was deactivated because we have not logged in for over 90 days. This is a back and restore app. So we will have a need to login to check only when there is a need for a restore. However, the app did not stop collecting the charges for all these months. To add to the woes, the account restoration also did not work.

Excellent service client!

Great app, and the support received has been second to none. Recommend highly.

mi ha salvato da una perdita totale dei dati

Easy to integrate & backup. Support was able to get all my businesses under one account quickly. Great communication and the whole processes has been great!

I recently lost 17,000 email addresses which we had accumulated over a serious amount of time. Rewind was able to recover all of them for me. They made it easy for me to do this and I totally appreciate this service.

Support have been great responding to my queries and assisting with requests I have made. We have two Shopify sites that use the Rewind Backup app, and their support was happy to talk me through setting up the app on our second site so that we could bundle them both into one subscription. They also have several different types of subscription and helped me choose the one that worked best for us.

I used to love this app, but they brough up the price which is fine (but no notificiation), they had also failed to answer my 4 email requests asking for a JSON hard copy. In fact I haven't heard from them since Christmas time. For backing up your shopify store I advise other options. Thanks ---- Updating this review from Feb 18th as support reached out. It turned out that the email stopped being recognized by their support system. This has since been resolved and with helpful support I have gone back to them as you need good backups and a helpful person/good customer service at the other end. Otherwise it just doesn't work. Regarding price change I just missed the notification. Thanks

Annoyed they increased the price more than double without warning. You just have to discover it on your bill.

They raised the pricing by double without announcing it. Is there also a bigger benefit ? I found nothing.

I am so angry and annoyed at this back app. I had to restore all my collections and when I did I noticed all the manual sort orders were not there any longer for over 1500 products - reason - just as other poor reviews of this app state they said "due to Shopify’s API limitations not sharing this information". This app KNOWS of the the things which Shopify is not sharing with it as when there is an issue - you are clearly told this when you have an issue restoring. But only then! There needs to be a much better upfront list of what is not backed up as this app is putting you in a complete false sense of security with its fancy weekly emails which lead you to believe everything is being backed up. Well.. the reality is you'll only learn of what is not being backed up when you try and restore. I regret using the app now as the very first time I have needed to use ti - the money invested in having it has not paid off. So I feel it's a waste of time. I could have manually backed up the elements this site is not backing up - if I has been told about them. Very poor on the part of this site. In this situation both Shopify and Rewind Backups were equally useless. Please be aware to quiz this app on what is not being backed up and don't be fooled by all the glossy sales copy from them.

Bad app. They more than doubled the price without any warning !!! Shady Shady way of running a business. Was difficult to unsubscribe. Not any guide on their site how to do it. No humans at their chat service. Regrets to have subscribed for more than a year with this company. With the help of Shopify AI I could finally cancel the subscription uninstalling this app.

I do not recommend this app. It no longer backs up inventory tracking quantities, so when you restore listings in Shopify, all items are returned as untracked inventory. Rewind informed me that due to Shopify’s API limitations, they’re unable to properly track inventory quantities within listings. This means that if you need to restore products you accidentally deleted, you still have to manually re-enable inventory tracking for each item and physically recount and re-enter all stock quantities. Given the high price point, the app doesn’t offer nearly enough time savings or functionality to justify the cost.

Stephan is very helpful. I appreciate what this app does.

company violates shopify subscription policy, and makes cancellation nearly impossible. Had to reinstall and go through a process that was not previously available to "uninstall". I have sent countless emails requesting cancellations and they still charge our account. I also had to reinstall the app just to leave this review, and now will uninstall.

Preis hat sich mehr als verdoppelt ! das ist nicht fair ! ich Kündige !

I always install this app in my personal projects, and I also have my clients install it. I believe it is essential for any serious business to have an automatic backup of everything, so that they can recover a very recent version of only what is necessary at any given time. Best wishes to the team!

We recently required support for a highly complex technical issue. The service we received was exceptional in every regard. The team was immediately available for a call to diagnose the situation, demonstrating a high level of responsiveness and expertise. Most impressively, they developed a custom solution to address our specific requirements, a gesture that far exceeded our expectations. The implementation was flawless and resolved our issue completely and efficiently. This level of dedication and technical capability is rare. We are thoroughly impressed and grateful for their outstanding support. A truly five-star experience.

Terrible experience with Rewind I’ve had this app for over 4 years and honestly, it’s been nothing but disappointing. In all that time, I only needed to use it once—and it failed completely. Their response? An apology and two months of free credit, which didn’t come close to covering the huge amount of work we lost. To make matters worse, they quietly increased the subscription from $3 to $19 without ever notifying us. We ended up paying this massive price hike without even knowing. On top of that, the app is full of bugs. Just yesterday, our store (surface-2-air-sports.myshopify.com) couldn’t even connect because of an ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE error. Bottom line: Do not waste your money on Rewind. It’s unreliable, overpriced, and not worth the risk.

The only time I ever needed to revert to a back-up due to a coding mix-up, I learned it was not automatic and I needed to contact someone to do it. With response times taking 2 days each time, it was quite frustrating. You can imagine, when you need to revert your website due to a coding error, you want it to revert asap. I ended up just hiring a coder to fix it. That said, I decided to continue using the app as a fail-safe, just in case. However, with their recent announcement that they are taking a *100%* price increase (yes, 100%) next month, I am moving on to another backup app. I get the cost of business is going up, but for an app with no COGs, no Tariffs, etc, a 100% increase is ridiculous. Bye bye.

1. prices got higer, but ok. Everythings getting more expensive 2. i tried to import a csv and tested it first. With a few products. Some of them have variants. After I saw the import failed and the variants are gone, I restored it with rewind. After that, the variants were back, but with wrong inventory. After asking AI how to backup and restore the inventory amount etc. as well, it says it´s not possible at all. But on the website it says, this tool does backup the inventory as well. So, higher prices for less than promised. Now I am not sure if i can rely on other things as well... lets see what the support can tell here.

We've been using Rewind for a few years & was convenient to have old listings archived without having them present in the background. While Rewind was probably our favorite app on our list, they slipped when they notified us of a soon-to-be price increase from an affordable $9/mo to $19/mo. This price increase in this economy is not sustainable to the small business that already a ticket holder on the struggle-bus. On the hunt for another service that offers the same support minus the huge price per month.

I would strongly caution anyone considering this app. After years of paying for their service, I discovered I had been overcharged more than 50% above the publicly listed plan price for nearly 80 months. The company never informed me of this “silent” price change, and when I raised the issue, they insisted it was correct — despite their own archived website and Shopify App Store listings proving otherwise. To make matters worse, they recently announced yet another price increase, even though the first one was never communicated transparently. Their explanations shifted, citing plans that simply never existed, which only undermines confidence further. This kind of billing practice feels dishonest and predatory, especially toward long-time customers who trusted them. After this experience, my trust in this company is completely gone. There are other backup apps available on Shopify that offer the same features at the advertised prices — I’d recommend exploring those instead.

Not worth it. We have paid for over 3 years and never needed to use it once. Canceled due to a 533% price increase (from $3 to $19/month), with no noticeable improvement in value. Sudden price hikes like this break trust, especially for a "just-in-case" app. Hope this feedback helps others make an informed decision.

This app has saved us BIG TIME on at least two occasions. The restore process is delightfully easy. Fantastic app. Can't recommend it enough.

We’ve been using Rewind Backups for about a month, and it’s been a great experience so far. We accidentally uploaded a SKU spreadsheet to the wrong store, but thanks to Rewind we were able to quickly revert and avoid any issues.

Hidden/obfuscated process for canceling subscription - 1 star every time.

Excellent customer service! Helpful and very nice.

There are other better options. Some of our SKUs got corrupted due to an incorrect file upload. The back-up restore feature did not work.When we contacted support, there was no response. When they need to increase your plan and charge more money, they seem to have enough resources for that. This app has proved to be useless to us. Find someone else.

Great app. Highly recommend. This is a lifesaver and Stephan was able to help me with my problems. 10/10

Were very supportive and helpful during our data migration. Very happy with the service and the security of knowing our data is backed up.

A week ago, while connecting Shopify to JTL Wawi using the JTL Connector app, I lost all my product data. I was extremely frustrated. The JTL Connector app overwrote all the product data in Shopify with empty rows. A complete disaster! I honestly don't understand why JTL doesn't have a built-in security mechanism for this. Anyway... Luckily, I had recently activated Rewind Backups. When I used the last backup to restore, I was disappointed to discover that Rewinds doesn't save or restore automated backups of the product meta fields I had spent a long time and painstakingly creating. Oh no! My frustration was even greater. Was all the data really lost? When I contacted Rewinds Support, wondering if there was any way to salvage my many meta fields, I immediately received extremely friendly assistance. A huge THANK YOU to Bianca and Stephan. Within 5 days, all the lost data was restored. Hallelujah! As I subsequently learned, automated restoration of meta fields is currently not possible with Rewind's backup. Rewind requires manual intervention. But they do it brilliantly. So, anyone who loses their data (especially product meta fields) but has a Rewind backup should take a deep breath and contact the support team. Miracles still happen. Dear Rewind team, thank you so much for the amazing help. Absolutely fantastic! Thanks for everything. Best regards.

After doing a backup, certain in-text images did not get restored. Contacted support, although they were nice, could not fix the issue and said that Rewind Backups does not include these images. I had to manually fix many, many product pages and put these images back. Then, a few weeks later these images were again removed, without doing a backup. Again, this is costing us many hours of manual work to restore these images. We had a paid subscription and expected better performance. If you are looking for an app that restores ALL aspects of your site, including all images, then don't use this app.

Bianca was responsive and effective. All good due to her help.

The support team is incredibly kind and responsive, always ready to help. The app is easy to use and extremely valuable, especially when mistakes happen while uploading products or making changes to the store. A real lifesaver for anyone managing a Shopify store!

We absolutely love Rewind's automatic backups! Their 24/7 service gives us peace of mind that our website data is safe and secure. Highly recommend!

We just integrated with the Rewind app and have already had a chance to use it! The customer support team is incredibly kind and responsive. The tool is set up well and easy to use. We're grateful to have this added layer of support and security!

The team are fantastic - they've been so responsive and helpful in helping us get going with over 20+ stores! The piece of mind knowing they're backing up is amazing; with so many products, orders, content - and a large team engaging in the site management - it's great to know the backups will be there should we ever need them.

App did not backup and restore Variant data and metafields. The AI Chat and help files inform of API limitations, but other Apps can do it. Look elsewhere and save yourself the pain of data loss.

We had cause to need a recovery but had never used Rewind before. They responded to our request within about an hour. Fortunately, we resolved the issue internally and didn't need to recover in the end but they (Bianca) followed up on this with a lovely email. This has given us a very good impression of Rewind so far.

Brittney has been wonderful in helping us integrate Rewind into our Shopify sites! She provides quick responses and thorough communication on how to setup Rewind and select the best plan for our business. Really appreciate all of her help!

Great app and even better support! I had a problem with the restore process and got a fast response from Brittney! All is well.

Not possible to download the created back up :( you have to write to support by email.. why? If we talking about personal data - you can do it through shopify directly in a few click.

We’re currently preparing for a system transition as we update our Shopify site, and Brittney Durston from Rewind has been an absolute standout throughout this process. From the start, Brittney provided thoughtful, detailed guidance that helped us understand what to expect and how to prepare effectively. She offered clear advice on best practices and troubleshooting strategies to help us avoid potential issues before they arise. Her proactive approach and depth of knowledge have given us real peace of mind as we move into this next phase. Even though we're still in the preparation stage, Brittney’s support has already made a significant impact. She’s professional, responsive, and truly invested in helping her clients succeed. We’re grateful for her partnership and highly recommend her and the Rewind team!

I had problems with the new installation and choosing a pricing plan. Biance helped me very quickly and competently. Everything was great, thank you very much.

I have it since a few years. Never used it. But now I went over 1000 orders a month they want to x10 the price. It seems they want to get their piece. But I am fine keeping it at the 9 USD a month.

No issues with the product, but it's one of those Shopify expenses grows as you scale. I would avoid and try to find to find something that doesn't feel entitled to a royalty of your hard work.

Installed 3 years ago as a way to make sure I sleep at night but never had a need for it, and personally was slightly questioning the monthly cost. Yesterday we had an issue with an app uninstalling badly from our store resulting in us losing some functionality. An initial restore got most things sorted, reached out to the team and within 2 hours a full restore of other parts was done by the team and everything is up and running again.

Fantastic service! Very easy app that makes us feel assured that our store, orders and customer data is correctly backed up. Also great customer service :)

Great App. Fast and good service. Thank you

We are very pleased with the level of care we received from the app regarding the restoration of our product metafields. Stephan and Ahmad are a credit to your company and were very quick to reply to all questions and queries which put our mind at rest. Will definitely be recommending this app to other developers and stores we work closely with.

Love it. Set and forget - knowing you can go back and undo mistakes is a great relief

We had a terrible experience with this app. On go-live day, most of our data did not come across from our sandbox to the live store, so the team had to populate it manually.

I’ve never had to use the Rewind app, fortunately, but having it running in the background provides an immense sense of peace of mind for our business. I highly recommend it.

Great support from Brittney once again and the team at Rewind regarding our recent account modifications. Thank you

My biggest respect to you guys! Your app worked like a charm when we needed it the most!

I've been using them for years, but never needed to do a back up until last week. It was a very specific backup that I couldn't do myself, but customer support helped after two or three emails.

I have had Rewind installed since 2020 and I've never had a reason to use it until recently when there was an issue with deleted items in our store. The restore process was so smooth and easy, and the customer support was top-notch — responsive, and patient with all my questions. Stephan, in particular, was outstanding and helped me get set up with another feature of our plan that I had not been using before. Highly recommend this app!

App is very intuitive and the team has been assisting us through the process of choosing the right plan based on our needs. 100% recommended!

I have been using The Rewind Backup app for a while now. It gives me peace of mind to know that if I mess up a theme by changing the wrong setting I will be able to roll it back to last (daily) backup. I can also easilly backup manully if I know I am about to try a change that might not go as expected. It s well for the money to keep our store save!

Bianca with customer support was very helpful and patient and walked us through the entire process. We feel more secure knowing all of our data is backed. We had a malicious freelancer delete everything once, and we never want to be left without an option to back it up ever again. We also customize our code occasionally, and sometimes things go wrong, with Rewind we feel at ease. Thanks!

App does what it says in an easy to understand way. The support, especially Brittney, have been invaluable and respond very quickly when I have had questions.

Reliable service that gives me peace of mind that my data is safe and secure and there for me if I ever need it. Thanks for all the help with setting up my account.

While I wish it was easier to download a backup of my site, with a one click download, as I think it should be. I will say this.... I emailed their support and they were very responsive. Brittney Durston was the associates name that took care of me and she was prompt and very helpful. I have my backup downloaded a day later. That's good customer service.

World class assistance and help! Thank you folks!

I had an issue involving what I thought were some unauthorized changes to some of the listings on our store. After failing to find a solution that would help me in the app, I contacted the Rewind Backups support team and explained my situation. I wasn't sure exactly when or exactly what had been altered and I needed a complete snapshot of all the listings exported to me in a file from various dates. They informed me that they don't typically offer the service I needed, but understood my situation and would make an exception for me. This was on a SUNDAY! I cannot say enough about how absolutely amazing my experience has been working with this support team. I truly felt like they had my back 100%. They were quick to respond, very clear and concise in their emails, and free of the kind of up-sell nonsense I've become all too accustomed to when dealing with other support teams. Absolutely exceeded all expectations and I couldn't be happier!

I was so grateful to know that this app that I kept paying for but not really knowing what I needed it for was there when I found out why I needed it. Thanks to Brittany, I restored my website before my major mess up and carried on with my day.

Great support who actioned my requests quickly. App works well and is a must have for any store.

Easy to use, fast and responsive support, great documentation.

Since we installed it, Rewind has become one of our most essential apps, and the support we’ve received where and when needed, recently from Brittney on the team, has been exceptional. We’re so happy with rewind, as our go-to backup and staging solution, we’ve taken out an annual subscription and highly recommend it.

Support is always quick to respond and very helpful!

Great team and very supportive in terms of support. I had a challenge to change ownership of the app and they were very responsive and I got it solved in a day. Amazing team behind the product and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a backup tool solution for their shopify stores.

Netter und schneller, zuvorkommender Support. Nach der Installation ging das erste Backup schnell und unkompliziert.

Fortunately we haven't needed it much but the handful of times it was super easy to go back and restore a few products. returned within a few minutes and we were back and running as if nothing had happened.

Brittney was fantastic helping us with our Backup. All sorted very quickly. Thank you

i uninstalled and im still being charged monthly

If you have thousands of products, do not rely on this. Our store has thousands of products, I accidentally deleted some, so i used this app to restore all products to a date before I deleted the products. For some reason this app changed the assigned variant image for hundreds if not thousands of products to display the wrong image. I havent been able to check how many products this app has messed up. Update: in response to their response. I went back and forth with their support for a while, the end result was them telling me they could not reproduce the isssue, no fix.

We got this to feel a sense of security in case anything ever happened to our store. However, the one time we need to actually use a backup, we find out that they don't actually backup metafields, despite it being listed on the pricing cards above. Metafields are crucial to our store. After talking with support, I understand that they've said that the Shopify API doesn't allow them to back this up. But then don't list it and have me feeling surprised when the backup isn't there.

Great service. Thank you Brittney.

I was ready to publish a batch of significant change to our Shopify theme on a Saturday afternoon, but didn't want to do it without some type of a backup/rollback protocol in place. I started to research Shopify backup software, and found glowing reviews of Rewind. But I had some technical questions as to whether it would fit our needs. I sent an email to customer support, and was shocked to get an answer within the hour on a Saturday! Brittney of Rewind was able to answer all of my questions, and offered to help with the setup process (which was so simple no help was required). I got Rewind installed and configured, and was able to confidently publish the theme changes with peace of mind that I could easily roll back if necessary. Thank you, Brittney, and thank you, Rewind!

Great product and customer support (Brittney) was very helpful in helping us make some changes to our paid plan.
