Webgility is the best application on the market for syncing between online shopping carts and desktop QB applications. PLEASE coordinate more closely with Webgility going forward Shopify!!!!

It does what it promises and does it for free. What more could you ask? This is an edit of my original review (no star change, but some updates). I didn't understand at first how the collections worked and I was thinking in terms of collections based on product types. That isn't really what we wanted though. So now as we get closer to launch, we created three collections and alerts: one for items where inventory has dropped to zero (SOLD OUT!), one for items where inventory is 1-5 ("critically low") and one for items where inventory is 6-10 ("watch list"). This is working pretty well for us. Many ways you can use this that I didn't think of. Still, this fills a need for a feature that really should be built into Shopify. Crazy that it's an app at all, but this app fills the void just fine and the price is right! One small enhancement that would be great: if the email included the name of the collection in the subject line, that would be slick

This solves a major headache for us. Shopify doesn't have a great system for custom workflows. What we wanted to do is set it up so all new orders get tagged "Print" so the shipper knows to print them. Once tagged, we can save a custom search so the shipper just goes into Shopify and looks at the Print tab on the orders page and boom! He knows which orders came in since last he printed. Then he bulk prints and clears the tag and the order goes to the In Process tab (same search, but without the Print tag). But how to tag orders automatically was the stumbling block and Order Tagger solves this. When we first discovered it, Order Tagger would only tag by product, so we went through and set up all products to trigger the tag. But Sam told me they hoped to add other criteria that would save us this work (it's not much work, but I was afraid of someone forgetting to do it when adding a new product and the process would break). With the latest release of Order Tagger, you can now choose a lot of different criteria, such as order value. I can just set an order value of $0.01 or a weight of 1gm to make sure every order is tagged. Sam is super friendly and responsive. The app works very well and is very straightforward. This solves one of our last two stumbling blocks to make the store go live. Thanks Sam!

There is a competitor (I forget the name) that looks almost the same feature for feature. I tried them first only because they offer one extra feature: backup to Google Drive. However, their system didn't work at all. It just simply never successfully completed a backup. So I switched to Rewind and it is pretty amazing. Everything just works, but I got a few things I didn't expect. Like you get a weekly report of how many changes you made on your site. And it's super easy to navigate and find old versions. I haven't had to restore anything yet, but it looks like it would be easy. And Mike from Rewind tells me they have saving to Google Drive on their roadmap for 2017. I wish the $5/month plan were a little more generous because we're just over the limit, but all in all, it's a great app and there was clearly a lot of work that went into this, so they deserve their paycheck!
