We've been using this app since 2013 and all the features are great specially the option to sort collections in Trending. Chris has been amazing with support! Keep up the good work!
A fantastic app with one of the best supports I have seen. While the app is great out of the box, the team spent several hours making little tweaks to make it work the way I needed. Have been using for several years. Highly recommend them.
This app is a gamer changer. They have helped me with so many customizations for our site. 10/10
Update July 2023: We've been using the powertools filter app for about 5 years and are still very happy with it (we recently added the Powertool Suite which has given us increased functionality). The support is spectacular and willing to help troubleshoot, offer guidance, and even some customizations. Very affordable. Original review: Excellent app. We spent considerable time trying to set up other product filter apps and none of them did what we needed. Power tools filter is incredibly customizable and there are tons of automatic installations meaning even those with little coding experience can implement these filters on their site. There are also helpful tutorials if you get stuck and support was excellent. I was initially hesitant at the price when compared to other filter apps but of the ones I looked at in depth Power Tools has many more features and is worth it.
PowerTools is a MUST HAVE for any Shop owner who enjoys making money more than wasting time! Get it now!
I don't know how we managed without this app before we had it. Saves 100 of hours in manual adjustments. Love that it auto hides out of stock items, and how you can make mass price changes for special offers. Very much worth the monthly fee.
Functionality is ok but WOW good luck getting ANYTHING done with this app, it is insanely SLOW. Hours just to do a single action!!!

Hi, all apps on Shopify are speed limited to prevent overloading your store, all it means is that it is doing lots of work on improving your store! Let us know if you have any issues, and our friendly support team will get right on it!
The Power Tools Suite is integral to our admin systems, and I can't recommend this app enough.
This is a fantastic app! Really great attentive customer service. We have been using this app for years and it doesn't disappoint!
Really powerful app. Takes sometime to get your head around, but really stellar. Helps organize products via tags for us, and keeps collections looking fresh too.
We love love love this app. We have 1k + collections with 50k products and this can handle it like a breeze. Everything is automated. Saves us so much time & it works! Easy to set up rules. We've tested & tried several other apps but this can do everything we need. Great team support too, very responsive.
This app solved my filtering problems. Our customers love to be able to sort our huge inventory by size and now they can. I also love the other features, like easy tagging and tag removal, hiding sold out items, etc. Great support, too
I've used this App for years - always delivered. Extremely powerful, good support and looks great on our site Cherry
Was good until I realised that it started creating and modifying my apps without me actually inputting any instructions for it to do so. Now I have to manually do everything back

Hi, sorry to hear you had an issue with the app! We are really not sure what the issue is, it's a mystery. When the app is first installed there are no features active, and we don't have access to any other apps. If you can get in contact with our excellent support team, we'll be be happy to find the issue and resolve it!
My #1 app - I wouldn't be able to manage an inventory as big as mine without it. The help files could be more robust, but the chat support is great.
I use this app for a veriaty of tasks on our website and it 's easy to use. Love it and would recommend it. Thanks guys
The filtering allows customers to find exactly what they want so much more easily than on my competitors' websites.
Best filter app out there and we tried most of them. Their customer support was also some of the best we have seen on Shopify. Would definitely recommend.

Thanks for the great review, we really appreciate it - our team works really hard to get people set up!
I have used this app on my store for 3 years and ran into issues while migrating to a new theme. The collections pages were loading super slow because we have thousands of products and many collections. The support team helped me to recode parts of the website to have it load faster. This was for free.
I've been able to cut down on so many different processes I used to do manually thanks to this suite. I started my foray into this app with the filter tool, but soon realised pretty much the entire suite has a great advantage for me, since it automates a lot of the things I want. The helpdesk has been amazing to me, I had to ask them for help in a few cases and they are always patient and have fast solutions.
Excellent app. Excellent customer service. Everything works as advertised.
I have been using this app for half a year now, I really enjoy it and it's easy to change colors and style, especially this chat rep called Chris is so helpful he can even help me to customize the theme settings to make sure everything fits my background and my website style perfectly, from the outlooking, the colors to the border of the filter. 5 stars for the customer care.
Love this app make my life so easy with how quick this fixes things. Dont need to worry about tagging things before they come in
I rarely leave reviews, however I had to this time - We received most Amazing! customer service from any APP Team we've dealt with. Special mention to Chris who has spent hours customising the filter to fit our requirements. Getting a solid support is so important to move forward with confidence if something goes wrong and Team power tool seems to have nailed it ! My congratulations & Best Wishes
Awesome app. Makes the impossible possible. Easy as to use too. Brad and Chris have always given me the best support when needed, I can't speak highly enough of them! Best team out there. https://www.empireskate.co.nz/
Thank you for this very complete sub-search platform, although we still can't exploit all its resources, from what I've seen it's great. The technical service also responds appropriately and quickly.
Great app. Super easy to use, reliable and great support. Would highly recommend, particularly great for stores with a large number of products.

Thanks for the review, we really appreciate it!
Excellent app with a ton of awesome features! I highly recommend it to anyone. The variant tagger is particularly useful, especially plugged into themes that allow filtering by tag.
Used for quick tag editing and search filtering. Found some occasional issues with editing features through the app, but customer support has been first class, and every issues I've had has been resolved quickly and painlessly. My only complaint is that the filter menu don't work with search results, and I'm struggling to find another app that will play nice with the filter menu to do that job. Introducing filter menu for search (even at additional cost) would make this a 5/5 for me.
I just began using the app so I am not yet familiar with all of the functions/features, but the support staff, Chris, was very helpful in getting the app up and running.

Thanks for your review! If you have any issues we are always here to help!
A necessary app for Shopify. Has the best filter options and some quick tools for streamlining your work.
Filter menu does exactly what we need it to do. Great support from Chris to help get it functioning properly and looking good!
The app is very well supported and works very well. Would be better if the app functions in a more simple manner rather than creating so many collections and tags but I guess you can't have everything. I've never had such great assistant from an app's support team than from Power Tools Suite support team so 5 stars!
If you're reading this, you already know you want it. It works great. Just do it. Our store uses it and it has made a world of difference in just the filters. But then it's got all the other power tools as well. You can't go wrong. At least give it a try!
This APP is flat out AWESOME! The customer service is top notch! If you have any problems at all you don't have to worry because they are very patient and helpful. The layout looks really good with the storefront too. I completely would and will recommend this app to anyone I know looking for specific searchable features for their online store. I'm not very tech savvy but they really helped answer all my laymens/rudimentary questions. Best of all......this suite offers so much for the money it's great. One of the few apps I can say that aren't greedy in their cost tiers like so many others out there. Only app to use in my opinion.
It's packed with a lot of features and most of them work well. Don't buy it for the sort menu, as that part is outdated and not really supported anymore...but everything else seems great. I love the random sort feature and haven't seen it anywhere else. Support is prompt and courteous!
I have a unique product line with some challenges when trying to set up filters so that my consumers can find what they need. I am not a wiz with apps or anything website related. After reading the reviews I decided to go with Power Tools because everyone talked about how great the support was. They aren't kidding! They were so helpful and were able to help me figure out how to do what I needed even tho it was a little more challenging. You won't regret buying this app!
Very powerful app. 1) The Filters App sdds tremendous value to the online browsing experience. The important step is to conceptualise the filters that are relevant to the store category and then setting up the product tags appropriately. But once that is done, the user experience is enhanced. Highly Recommended. 2) The Bulk Edit app is also very very useful. Adding, replacing, deleting tags for a collection is otherwise quite tedious - but with this app it is just a few clicks. Money well spent! Highly Recommended App.
Brilliant live chat that helped me change a few things on my store quickly like adding the new ajax loading feature which is a big improvement :)
We have been using Power Tools Suite for years now. We can't imagine running our store without the added functionalities the app offers. Combined with PowerTools's consistant next level customer support, this is a great value, gem of an app.
We are using this app so that our customers can filter based on size, color, availability, etc. Power Tools installed the app for us quickly and Brad has been incredibly patient with my many questions, helpful in fixing any issues and responsive to all of my inquiries. The app looks great, fits seamlessly into our theme and does what it says it will do. We are very pleased!
One of the most useful app that we use on a daily basis. It doesn't look as flashy as few other apps but when it comes to doing what it suppose to do reliably this is a must-have.
One of the better apps out there for filtering variants and collections. What impressed me was the app support, which was very quick. Would recommend if you are looking for an app that filters variants.
If you have many collections and different types of products as my curated store does you need a better filtering system than Shopify offers, for a better and easier customer experience. Power Tools is a good system that adds sidebar menus to stores. It's worth paying for extra support to get the app to do what it needs to as it is quite complicated. The App Devs are patient and work with you to get to the point of publishing. I don't yet know if it will boost sales in my store but of course I am hoping so.
Veronica from Power tools was an excellent help when I need some guidance tweaking the look of the filter Menu. She responded and had me fixed up within a couple of hours! I have been using Power tools suite for about 6 months now and it has assisted in user experience and seo beautifully! Thanks team and Veronica
I recently published an updated theme in error prior to having everything ready and it knocked out everything on a Friday night. I contacted support and they had everything back in working order in now time on my site www.dancewearcorner,com. I honestly thought it was going to be a long painful weekend but they were amazing! Thank you for your quick response in my time of need!
Awesome support for the last two years or so on this app. Not that support is needed, but, all questions have been answered in a timely manner. I looked at everything available and this is by far the best solution for us. We have over 200,000 items on the site that we manufacture and this is a great way to get this information organized and shown to our customers through the filter menu. Awesome JOB!
Fantastic app which is easy to use and the filter menu is the best out there. The customer support is the best I have ever experienced online with fast, courteous and detailed responses and amazing technical support. Thanks!
I am a web developer, and I have built many shopify sites some averaging over 60k per month. I have been using power tools on every site now that I build and highly recommend working with this group and using all of there apps that they provide which can add performance and sales to your site. When you need help they always get back in a timely manner and truly care about there customers.
I contacted Power Tools for help in setting up the app at 0936 on 12-3-18 and everything was up and running by 1045 the same day. I have never had such an efficient response from an app developer. Highly recommended.
Always works great and it a tool I use on every site I build.
Fantastic app! We tried the others collection filtering apps available and found Power Suite Tools to be the best option for our needs. Bit of coding was required as our theme is customised, the instructions are easy to follow (copy/paste code). No problems at all with this app!
This is a really great suite with a collection of useful tools. The filter menu, trending products, hiding sold outs and pricing policies are all the apps I currently use. Brad is very helpful and the video tutorials definitely help you figure things out!
Since we need a job done quick power tools helped doing just that...
Awesome app to help our customers filter down to the exact part they need for their floor scrubber and floor sweeper. Helps us filter parts based on a machine, like a Tennant T1 filter.
Hands down the best app for Filter menus. The support is fast and efficient and I would recommend this app to anyone. I tried the others and now I have the best!
One of the most important apps for our Shopify store. (primewines.com)
Brad has been amazing. He helped me with all my necessary edits. He's always happy to help! 5/5 forsure!
True Professionals and Great to work with. We have a large commerce site with hundreds of products, and over 20 apps running in the background. We have a custom template and are always very cautious to install a new app or let someone do a custom install on an app. We have found that it can break things in your store sometimes and Hurt your business. These gentlemen work fast to get you up and running and their app did not break anything in our store or effect any running apps functionality. They were happy to help us get there app running on our custom template and the app is outstanding! This app has made the shopping experience for our customers much easier! Thank you Power Tools! https://www.shebeest.com/
An essential Shopify app. We run a successful online store selling mens luxury clothing. We could not run without this app as it is imperative customers are able to filter products by different options (size, colour, style etc...) .
Easy to use, made some menus for our variants. 3 months running, no problems with it.
This app works perfectly for our store. Initially I had trouble setting it up but a quick email to support had it set up properly and working great. Have used it for about a year now. Well worth it.
Once you get your head around the configuration it is an extremely powerful app. Great support as well.
I'm not normally one to write reviews...anyone involved in launching or managing an e-commerce platform appreciates the limited time available. In this case, it feels warranted. When we set out to re-brand our our company and e-commerce channels we had to weigh the route of ASP.Net, Magento, or something which would be more plug and play such as Shopify. During this time of planning we spent countless hours researching the mechanism and possible solutions which would provide virtually limitless filter options and organization for over 7,000 products. In our opinion, if we couldn't nail this functionality it would be a deal breaker to move forward with Shopify. Luckily we found Brad and Power Tools. This application does exactly as advertised and is quite powerful. It will allow you to provide filtering and collection updates which has pretty much become the norm of customer expectation when shopping online. It does much more, but this alone is worth the price of admission. The application really gives you the flexibility to filter into collections, color, size, lifestyle, and any other attribute you can come up with to guide your customer through the store. More importantly, and my reason for writing this review, is the professional level of support that Brad and his team provide. I have never waited more than 24 hours to get a response, and normally that response already includes the fix we were in search of to move forward. Time is our most precious asset and I'm happy to confirm that Brad doesn't waste it...or your money. That said, the software is does have a learning curve if you want to create deep levels of filtering as we do. My recommendation would be to take a look at the app and allocate a few hours of Brad's time to help you implement this powerful tool exactly to the specification that best serve your customer. This will save you time and money, while allowing you to get immediate benefits. If you have over 100 products, this app is a must have for your store. We track GA and see how many of our customer engage the filter options. Furthermore, we have seen a 300% increase in our business since the launch of our new website in December 2016, Our company has been online since 2004, so we didn't take the decision to go with Shopify lightly. Rather, it was because of Brad and his operation that we did go this route. Thank you Brad for being a tremendous help along the way and our team appreciates the integrity and value provided. To sum it up...Go for it- Can't Lose. Scott Gidlow- President & CEO
Absolutely worth it. I literally use this app any time I am updating our website. The filter menu is in my opinion the best option for sorting products using SHopify. The smart delete function I use all the time - it is invaluable. The bulk edit tags has saved HOURS upon hours of time editing products for the filter menu. A customer literally every day thanks us for making our website so easy to browse. This app is 100% WORTH IT.
We've had this application installed since January 8th of 2015. It is truly fantastic. We were really looking forward to seeing how our customers enjoy the superior shopping experience we can offer them with the Filter Menu application installed, because we simply couldn't imagine this change being anything but a sales-increaser. Well, I can now say that this app's performance on our site not only looks great, but I can also flat-out say our store is making more money because of it. Caveat: We were not able to install or configure the application on our own. We paid for the full installation ($150) versus doing it ourselves (free) or having a basic install ($50) which I think is sufficient for most stores that don't use tags as extensively as we do for products. Through the process, I'd say three of our team had about 45 hours combined in working to come up with the strategy to most effectively use the Filter Menu and other features of PowerToolsSuite, avoid mistakes that could cause our collections to become messy, and to communicate our needs and desires via emails to the app developer. Yes, a few issues came up during the install process, and 90+% of them were dealt with very promptly and to the best of our developer Brad's ability without any request for more money. We expect to be customers of this app for a long time to come. Update February 2017: still happy customers, thanks to Brad and FilterMenu! Yes, there are other pieces to the PowerTools suite of apps but we don't really know how to use them or what they do. However, Filter Menu we do use and it is an integral part of our product merchandising strategy. Love it!
We've been very impressed with this app, you get A LOT of functionality all rolled into one subscription. Keep up the good work! https://www.urbanindustry.co.uk/
This app is absolutely a must have for every large store! I would never migrate from Magento to Shopify without the Shopify Power Tools. It brings me an amazing filter menu and some other great features like the Trending Sort Order. I had some questions about the app settings but the support was just perfect - Brad replies within an hour or two and even on Sunday.
If you want: * great support - someone who will help you instead of try to charge you * incredible filtering and more * increased sales *overall better customer experience Buy this app. Truly, the standard for how all app devs should be. Thank you for your company!
This app is AMAZING. Support for this app has been AMAZING, and Brad is AWESOME. I would highly suggest this app because of the level of support.
Recently did a series of qualitative interviews with our customers, and the number one complaint was that we had TOO many great products, that they were unable to decide one something they wanted. We somehow needed to offer them the ability to narrow down their choices. Looked at all the available apps on the market, and decided to go with shopify power tools, because it is the best looking one. Easy to install, and super friendly and efficient support. Highly recommended apps, as it now makes us look like the professional ecommerce platform we are :)
This app saves me so much time working on tags and product collections, it's one of my must have apps!
Possibly one of the best apps in terms of functionality. You can see it in use on http://global.amantelingerie.com/ It was rather complicated to install as they did not have an integration method for the theme used (ICON). However, with a little bit of help from my IT team we were able to install it without much trouble. Not the greatest backend interface, but works brilliantly. Probably one of the BEST apps we have installed so far. Thanks so much!
This is a fantastic suite of tools. It overcame a challenging coding issue by creating a stable filtered nav list. This has made the presentation of our site much cleaner and much more functional and although early going, there has been a noticeable improvement in traffic session times. I definitely recommend it!
We installed the Power Tools Suite to improve the navigation/ filtering capabilities of our theme. We have a large number of jewellery items for sale, and we think this app makes shopping so much easier for customers to home in to what they are looking for. I had some trouble with the install initially so we paid for Brad to install the app. This he did very quickly, thereafter he was very responsive and easy to work with. The app works very well. You can see the filter menu at work here: http://www.frankibaker.co.uk/collections/womens-jewellery Thanks Brad for a great app!
This is a must if you have lots of products. Thanks to the Filter Menu (which is part of the Power Tool Suite), we were able to create filters that make sense to our customers to help them find the products they are looking for. The filter menu has transformed our store and made it look much more professional. The Suite also includes other apps that complement the Filter Menu. Highly recommended! I Dream of France - idreamoffrance.com
Definitely a huge time saver. I usually don't enjoy paying for monthly recurring apps but Power Tools automates so many things that it makes shop keeping much easier. The faceting is the core feature, but the rest of the features make this worth the money.
Great for automatically generating collections does a lot of very awesome organizing.
It's truly amazing all of the things this app can do! We initially chose it just for the Filter Menu, but the bulk tag editor has proved invaluable as well.
These apps are excellent, and the customer support is excellent too. Highly recommended!
Great customer service. Great App! Highly recommended.
Well worth the money - we use this app on a near daily basis and it saves us tons of time updating our ever-changing product catalog. Support has been fast and helpful. We would definitely recommend this app.
If you have a large number of products for sale, you've really got to have this app. It makes shopping so much more manageable for your customers. I had some trouble with the install initially so I paid for Brad's help, and he was very responsive and easy to work with. The app works brilliantly and is a total lifesaver; it really does transform the shopping experience. You can see the filter menu at work here if you'd like: http://www.whatacoolresume.com/collections/infographic-resumes . Thanks, Brad. Thumbs up on a great app!
Absolutely Amazing. This product worked flawlessly and the support is spectacular. Brad helped me get everything configured exactly that way I needed and knew exactly how to do it. The ability to filter products was critical to our store and PowerTools knocked it out of the park with this easy to use and well designed product. Thanks - Adam
This app has tremendously changed our site. It allows our customers to find the products they want without all the hassle. The owner Brad is wonderful, he organized our menus just the way we wanted it and Fast!! Love, love love it. Will recommend this app to anyone.
This is my 2nd review almost a year after my first review. This app is still as great as always and I recently had a question with the set up of my store to find that Brad not only pointed me straight to the fully documented answer but also rectified this for me. You can't put a price on service like that 5 stars again months on after first review
