I’d say other merchants should know that Foldsquare is a really useful tool if you need to create a professional-looking product catalogue quickly and without a lot of hassle. It saved me a lot of time and delivered a really good final result, especially when I needed a catalogue urgently. The process was straightforward, and the quality of the finished catalogue was impressive Thanks so much for the 5 stars! We’re really happy you’re enjoying the app. We truly appreciate your support!” Adriana
The FoldSquare catalog app is a complete game-changer for organizing and displaying our products! It’s intuitive, sleek, and makes everything look incredibly professional. What truly sets this experience apart, though, is the customer service. Kwaku Zigah was absolutely amazing—responsive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was running perfectly. It’s rare to find such personalized support these days. Highly recommended!
It makes good catalog, but interactive options are limited. We can`t find where to see placed orders from interactive catalog (if choosing option add to wholesale order sheet) and there is an issue to link catalog to store front. No support or instructions online for this issue. In support chat send button doesn`t work. Hi, I'm sorry to hear that you can't find the option to place orders. Our chat support is available from 9am to 5pm EST and if you write a message outside those hours it should send us an email. A member of the support team will contact you shortly to assist your with your issues. Best, Kwaku
So far, this app has saved me a tremendous amount of time. When I found a step within the app that I wasn't quite sure how to handle, I chatted with someone via the embedded chat and they gave me instructions right away. Thanks!
The support i received from the tech Adriana was absolutely amazing! She solved my issue in a flash! This app is awesome and would recommend it to anyone! Very simple to use and edit!
Support is not very good, sent many messages and the support chat send button does not work, very frustratinig. Hi, I'm sorry to hear that you had problem contacting us. I will contact you directly via email to better understand why this was happening. Our customers usually don't have any issue contacting us via our live chat. Best, Kwaku
So far very easy to create and edit my digital catalog. Looking forward to getting lots of use out of this app.
The app’s features are convenient, but I frequently encounter errors that prevent me from progressing to the next step. For example, saving often fails, causing me to lose hours of work. Additionally, product metafields sometimes don’t load correctly, product data fails to display, or layouts break after publishing. I’ve run into numerous bugs, which has been frustrating. To make matters worse, support can take several days to respond, and I’m still struggling to resolve some issues. While I’m satisfied with the app’s functionality overall, it would be an excellent app if these bugs were addressed.

Very good app, but it is a bit slow in creating and updating catalogs
It is an absolute waste of money

Hi, I would love to chat with you to understand why you didn't have a good experience with our app since our users usually love it! In the meantime, I created a sample catalog that I sent to you by email. If you like it just let us know and we will happily complete it for you. Kwaku
dont think twice... get this app. It is a game changer. tech support- issues solved in matters of minutes using the chat. and its not a chatbot... its a live human chat... i cant say enough about this. very pleased. a+++++
This has been an amazing resource to add on to our shopify. The Customer Support team was incredible at getting us set up and and even adjusted the programming to better serve us. Very thankful to have come across this program.
Love that it integrates with our Shopify store! We utilized their Custom Catalog service as our needs were very specific. They customized the catalog exactly how we wanted. They were quick to respond to questions and stayed in touch with their progress. Will continue to use this app for our annual catalog build.
We have been looking for an app like this for years. It's the best of it's kind. I also needed some customization and their customer support was very good. Quick response and very helpful. I am not a programmer so they were also very patient. I highly recommend.
Haven't had a positive experience yet difficult to navigate and customers hate that all catalog order forms start at 1 not zero

Debo destacar la prontitud en la atención al cliente. No importa cuál haya sido mi consulta o inquietud, el equipo detrás de esta aplicación siempre ha respondido con rapidez y amabilidad.

Quiero resaltar la excelente capacidad de esta aplicación para resolver errores. Si estás buscando una experiencia excepcional y un equipo comprometido con el éxito de sus usuarios, no dudes en descargar esta app. ¡No te arrepentirás!
I was really excited to see that Shopify already had all of the products in for me to just click and edit! It made the building process very easy
Love this app! Customer support is very responsive. I needed a custom template and they wrote me code within 48 hours.
The app is very useful for people like us who have e-commerce and the Support Team is very helpful and quick to answer and resolve our queries. Thanks to Adriana for her valuable help.
Conceptually a great idea, and it felt like for a while they were building something- but recently basic features have been failing consistently and even the support box bugged out. I cannot recommend this to someone at present. Wish I would have read the comments before purchasing..

Hi, I'm Kwaku, one of the co-founders of the Catalog Maker. I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble with our App. I saw that you reached us this morning. We are currently investigating the issue, and we will let you know as soon as it is resolved. In the meantime, since it's working on our side. My colleague sent you a copy of the PDF file to your email. Best, Kwaku
Excellent customer service and very useful product. Wen are using it to generate a pricelist using our Shopify data and it saves us loads of time.
Thanks to the girls help me in these days I am being doing my catalog and order sheet, finally I created, Adiana helps me so so so much. Thank you for everything.
Excellent product! I tried a couple others and they were no where near as good as this catalog builder. We have over 200 products, and this catalog works great. The customer service is outstanding!! Thanks!
Great customer service and team to help make my catalog. It looks nice and fairly easy to use! I'm glad I found this app!
Very useful product for creating our bi-yearly catalog for our jewelry brand. There is a bit of a learning curve, but the final product shines. Great customer service.
Use it to do internal catalogue projects. LOVE the support that is always available to help out whenever there's something I can't figure out on my own.
We battled with this app for a few days until we contacted support. The team could not do enough for us on a tight deadline. There were some limitations that were highlighted during this experience and I hope these are addressed in future developments the main one being multiple catalogues that can be edited; followed by editing the online orderform. Once we got the hang of it, and with the help of the support team, we got through our catalogues quickly. Thankyou!
excited to try this out. We have not had much opportunity to try this product but will see how it goes
I chose to use this app to build a catalog for my company to then send to dealers. This catalog seems to have all the qualities I have been looking for! It has so far been very easy to use.
Easy to use among all other catalogs apps on the shopify app store. I would recommend this to businesses doing wholesale.
We have used this app for years and they always have amazing customer service this time we used the chat to help with page numbers and Adriana was excellent in helping to understand what was happening and actually fixed all the pages for us. Thank You!
Great app, we use this every year! Simple and easy to use and connects easily with our online catalogue.
Hi, the business owner here. Currently, the app does not seem to work very well. There are a lot of bugs and glitches such as with resizing of photos which is the builder's main purpose. The builder also lacks many basic features such as very limited ways to sort products, inability to link the table of contents to pages created, product names and prices do not automatically update which means any catalogs you have you will have to constantly update your products one by one, and so many more issues. Another key issue is if you lapse on payment they immediately lock you out and you are unable to access all the catalogs you already paid for to create I am currently waiting for a response from their customer support team and if they are able to resolve our issues we will change our star rating and update what we mention here in the review.

Hi, I'm sorry to read that you are having some troubles with our App at the moment. Our team is looking at your issue right now and we will get back to you ASAP. Best, Kwaku
I am sorry but Iam finding it not very user-friendly;y. For the cost per month, it should have some basic support, but I am unable to find that either. I just subscribed for a while year, but I would like to cancel and have a full refund. I am just not sure where or how to cancel?
I use this help to help me make catalogs for my business. It works ok. We have not run into too many issues while using the app.

Hi, My name is Kwaku. I'm the developer of the Catalog Maker. I'm sorry to hear that you encountered several issues with our app. I will love to go over the different issues you encountered with you over a call so that we can solve them as fast as possible. Next time you connect to the app, you can contact the support team via live chat and they will set up a call with me. Best, Kwaku
Lots of function, lots of flaws. Has CSS function to style the catalog as needed but has limitations too. No autosave feature so will lose changes if page freezes which happens often when dealing with a larger catalog or if you forget like I did. More often than not, editing is slow and takes a while to make changes needed to text, layout, etc. So no quick edits or changes, expect to spend a while editing waiting for the system to catch up with you when you click on text/while making changes to text. Horribly glitchy with Chrome browser at times, which is a super common browser to use but not sure it would work any better with any other browser but shouldn't have to tho, it should work with any browser. One of the most infuriating issue I found (so far but still working on the catalog so that could easily change) is that the About page img is hard to change... I removed old img, added new img, couldn't edit text afterwards. I removed img and text and tried layering the img under the text, clicked on img option on left of screen in edit layout mode and up pops up a text layer (wtf?). No matter how hard I tried, just couldn't get that to display right without having to completely start from scratch with a new page and build up my own About page. Another infuriating issue is that the text can be changed (font, size, color, etc) but when you look at it via html mode, there exist all the settings you selecting while changing out the font, size, and other attributes. All of it there, waiting to mess up how your text is displayed when you least expect it. All of it, littered throughout the paragraph in the background, ready to make your text look like sh**. Try cleaning it up and expect the page to freeze and the task becomes almost impossible to complete. Can't use custom fonts even tho it offers the use of them because the PDF export will not include them when you download the catalog, it feels like it's a gimmick to make the app seem full of features but in actuality it's only for certain uses not all (ie: custom fonts may be visible only for the digital catalog / editing phase but not PDF versions or something to that effect) which makes this feature completely useless for me. Frustrating . . . I am only giving this app any stars because it does have a lot of features that do make this app worth it IF the developers can fix the major issues the app has but not sure those issues will ever be worked on. Me personally, I am using this until I find something better and probably will never look back ಠ_ಠ

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We really appreciate it. We were not aware of these issues but we will try to reproduce them and fix them as soon as possible. We will follow up with you by the end of the week with an update. You should also know that you can contact us at any time on live chat if you have trouble editing your catalog and our customer support representative can even do the necessary modifications for you if you would like. Best, Kwaku
I have been using this app for years and it has been great! The staff are very good at helping you when you have any problems or questions.
I have not used this app before yet, i just paid for it, i hope it is worth it. Looking forward to creating catalogues with it.
This was an expensive app for me to purchase and the GUI is glitchy on Google Chrome and after spending numerous hours creating my about page which has alot of text and uploading my font, I find the export does NOT function with my selected font. I went back and chose a generic font like Roboto and again, the export was terrible!
Developer reply ·
Hi, I'm sorry that you were having trouble with your font. As you may have already noticed on your account. This issue has been solved the same day you notified us about this. Please let us know if you have any other issues. Best, Kwaku
UPDATE: I added one more star because their support has been responsive. They have fixed my issues, but I am still upset that it had to be brought to my attention from a sales lead. Needs more user testing on this app! They said the digital cart broke because they are working on the new one---but when were you going to notify your paying customers about the current one breaking??? OLDER REVIEW: Absolute garbage experience. The online print catalog is ok, but not intuitive in the slightest to update it. The digital catalog is atrocious. Some buttons just don't work, so many errors to count. It's basically the most unusable experience I've seen. Don't waste your money on this thing!

Hi, My name is Kwaku from Now In Store. I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing trouble with our app. We have already released a fix for your issues with the digital catalog buttons (you will need to do a hard refresh of your page to use this fix, see shortcuts: https://fabricdigital.co.nz/blog/how-to-hard-refresh-your-browser-and-clear-cache). As you can see we are pretty responsive to our users. Would you mind giving me more details about other problems you might have encountered at support@nowinstore.com? I'm sure everything else can be easily fixed as well.
Excellent so far, just getting started and learning how to build, but pretty efficient and easy to learn with a bit of assistance i understood the variables and how to apply myself going forward. Very helpful support.
Took a bit of time but does the trick! Would like to see a bit more control on the variant editing though
Developer reply ·
Hi, Thank you for your amazing review. Can you please contact me at support@nowinstore.com about your needs concerning variants? We do have some advanced features for customization that might help you accomplish what you need. Best, Kwaku
So quick & easy to use! I love how the customer service team contacted me right away to help. Very straightforward.
Appalled at the cost which I only discovered after 2 hours working on my catalogue. $99 a month is a rip off!
Developer reply ·
Hi, I'm sorry to hear that you worked for 2 hours before discovering our pricing. We try to make it clear as possible that our software isn't free by putting our prices on the Shopify App page. Best.
I used this app to help make my first wholesale catalogue ever and it made it possible. Live Chat was a lot of help for a couple things I couldnt do and overall I am very happy! THANK YOU!
This app has gotten progressively worse; it used to work but is not extremely buggy. Products routinely disappear from being added to a catalog, alignment is off, in short this does not work as advertised. Moreover, customer support is non-existent (they never use chat support, and don't return emails). RUN from this terrible app.

Hi Maho, Sorry to hear that you had trouble with our software. We had a few issues just after releasing our image compression algorithm which is why some of your product images weren't displayed properly. It has long been solved since then. Concerning customer support, our mail provider mistakenly tagged your emails as spam that's why you didn't get any reply. I can assure you that is not the case anymore. So if you want to give it another try, please let us know and we will gladly extend your trial period. Best.
I use Now In Store for our line sheets and I love them! Anytime I have issues I always get responses back asap with solutions to my problems! I recommend using their services :) They are also always working to improve their software which is great!
Support staff was very quick to reply and helped me with every issue I had. The app is very easy to use and has good features.
I shopped around and tested EVERY catalog builder in the App store. I WAS GETTING SOOOO FRUSTRATED as every catalog builder App seemed to have 80% of the functionality that I needed. However, was always missing 1 or 2 very important steps for my business. Automatic Catalog Builder turned out to be the easiest and best option. It was easy to use, automatically linked my products so I didn't have to manually keep it up to date. I could enter custom information about my products that I didn't want to have on my Shopify store, just in my catalogs. It was the most expensive one out there that I tested, however, after the headaches I went through with all the other Apps it is well worth the price.
The Free trial is not free. It is a waste of time as you cannot download the catalog. The actual fee is $33 per month and they charge 6 months
Best of available options I could find by far. Thanks.
App says it's a 14 day FREE trial but must pay to do more than create. Wasted time creating it.
This app has false advertising, says free trial than it charges me immediately $198, absolutely ridiculous, shopify should ban developers like this. very bad experience i will never again. DONT CLICK THE INSTALL
Great success with this product- like the level of professionalism and ease with which I can create custom catalogues. I've learned that having the ability to create custom catalogues based on the wholesale or retail customer is critical. This app allows you to do that easily.
It's the best of the catalogue builders available in the app store if you need a PDF export. We use it extensively for linesheets in our wholesale-only Shopify store. There are a few issues here and there, particularly in formatting and customisation. you will probably need a PDF editor to finalise the catalogue. Customer care has been good, responsive and helpful.
Very intuitive and easy to use. I was able to do in an hour what had previously taken me days. Plus, great support. Very pleased!
Quick and easy why to give your dealers a catalog that is easy to update.
This app is way too expensive. 59$/mo for a catalog are you kidding? It does a good job but there is another app on the app store call Product Catalog Builder that does the same and a little more for only 10$ a month so i went to them. If you guys reduced your price you would get much more business in my opinion.
I just joined with a professional membership and created a catalog. I was only able to see my catalog for a couple hours and now I cannot view or download. I keep getting a 500 error and it's been this way for 2 days. Had I emailed the link to my wholesale accounts to view my catalog I would be embarrassed. Not a good start. **** Update App is buggy, my catalog title is cut off from the online version, and it seems like the developers, once they get your money, stops caring. I would not recommend.
Great App, Plenty of good features and very easy to use. Would definitely recommend.
Easy to use and good features for the price - recommended!
Very impressive app! Within seconds it took my store and products from being an unorganized jumble of product images to a very well put together classy catalog of products. Very well put together application and I definitely recommend it! Thank you ACB!!! -Rob www.personallyyourscd.com
Looks a great app and much easier to use than competitors with more stylish results too.
Amazing APP! So easy and hassle saving of designing my own catalog!
WOW, What a great APP! This is going to save me so much time.
The "Now in Store" catalog builder is truly an amazing app - Highly recommended for the wholesale feature, downloadability and fast store integration.
Extremely useful app this! Even with the trial option it has saved my heaps of time since I am expanding my product range constantly!
Love this app you have just saved me so much time that I don't really have at the moment ...I needed this to compliment my store and changing products ..very professional
We've needed to put together a catalog for quite some time but couldn't afford to spend the time or the money to get it done with a designer. This app will save us a boatload of both time and money.
This app is awesome! This allows our company to easily put together our many products into a great looking catalog that we can share with our sales reps, stores, and even on our social networks. We love this app!
I just installed this app. I have a segment of customers who are not tech savvy enough to order online. So they have been asking for a method by which they could call in their orders. Providing them with a catalog was the best method by which to do it. I am very happy with this app.
I have just installed this app and it was something I was looking for for long time. I need a catalog for some of my customers in Berlin where I supply some good restaurants with french cheese. They always ask for a price list in paper form and this is the solution. The possibility to drag and drop and rearrange the products (because I sell saisonal cheese is perfect). The wholesale price editor and order form is a very good feature. I recommend this app warmly. Best regards from Berlin, Philippe http://www.maitrephilippe.de/
Has potential but not enough options. We have both an Etsy and Shopify shop. Would be helpful to merge both since the two shops have different items. Also a search feature within the catalog would be helpful for customers looking for certain products or keywords. Would be nice to customize the page titles. We have a library of images people can use for their lollipops but if they can't search by keyword, makes a lookbook a challenge to flip through hundreds of pages.
