Altera ‑ Export and Import

Fantastic tool backed by an even better support team.

I've been using Altera for a catalog restructuring project (splitting and relinking product options to metaobjects across hundreds of products).

The app itself handles bulk operations that would otherwise take forever manually.

What really stood out was the support. I ran into a limitation (converting a linked option from one metaobject type to another wasn't supported yet), reached out, and Daniel personally looked into it and shipped the feature the very same day. That kind of responsiveness is rare, and it made a real difference for my project.

Highly recommend if you're doing any data management on Shopify.

The app does what it promises, but it's disappointing that merchants have to pay an extra $15 for functionality that Shopify itself should provide out of the box. Exporting store data is a basic administrative feature and shouldn't require a paid third-party app.

Allows download and upload of data via command line and therefore automation. Great app!
(it would be nice to see the filename of the Job, and a copy job function to ease transfer from Dev to Live, but that is just me being picky)

I am user of Matrixify last 5 years, this one is better - it allows me to publish Videos to 1k+ products without creating duplicates. **Huge breakthrough**. Whoever coded this understood the subtleties of what Matrixify (not really updated functionality in a while) was capable of, and improved.

The heavy hitters in legacy apps can get complacent...this might be my new favorite app. It's no small task to outperform Matrixify.

A friend recommended this service to me, but they later had a very disappointing experience with the customer support. Emmanuel did not provide proper support or a clear solution. It’s disappointing to see someone recommend a service and then end up dissatisfied because of poor customer support.

what can i say? well, it's the backup compiler and reinstaller of choice for all of our websites. although we haven't needed to use the backups in anger, yet, having analysed and reviewed the data extracts, this should not cause an issue when we do. having come from an IT background, i know thru experience that backups are crucial to the running and longevity of any and all websites. do a backup daily! the export itself, in the format of a simple spreadsheet, is very helpful too. a thousands thank yous, dudes and dudettes!

Altera is a truly fantastic Ap. I can easily import/export all my Shopify products (70,000+) and it is really easy to use & navigate. And the customer support Altera provides is the best I have received on Shopify. 10 out of 10.

Great!

A must have and worth every penny. Helped us solve and Issues that Shopify themselves could not fix. The support team is fantastic.

I love the CLI too.

Wow, wow, wow! If you need to combine order data with customer data - this is your solution! I just wish I'd found it sooner!
