Mergify: Combine, Merge Orders

We are a two-person shop. During busy weeks, every saved minute matters. Mergify gives us hours back every month by catching those back-to-back orders and merging them without us having to do anything since we use auto-merging.

Running a store is chaos most days, especially when there are multiple orders from the same customer. Having Mergify just tak care of something that used to eat up our time is such a win. It's wierd how satisfying it is seeing merged orders pop up automatically. Makes my day every time

App works well for us, however communication/customer service is absolutely horrendous. Twice now I've waited several days, I think a week one time, for a response or solution. I've emailed and I've used their chat on the app. Crickets.

Two issues with Mergify:

1. I decided to try the free plan, which promised ten free merges a month, as my business is quite small, of course with the intention/hopes of growing my business and funding a paid plan down the road. They changed, with no notice, to five total free merges. While that is their prerogative, I feel it's misleading to rope customers in and then change the terms so drastically.
2. The way Mergify merges orders is that it creates an entirely new order out of the merged orders. So if you are trying to merge to existing orders (let's say, order #1 and order #2) it creates an entirely new order, Order #3. When it does this, it leaves order #1 and order #2 marked as unfulfilled. Older orders should automatically be marked as fulfilled. I had a customer place two orders back to back through my linked Facebook shop, and I used Mergify to merge them, so the customer could save on shipping. It created a new, third order, as mentioned above. I fulfilled that new third order and the customer received. However, Facebook was still showing that Orders #1 and #2 were unfulfilled, and it wound up cancelling them and pulling funds from my account to refund the customer, even though I had proof that the customer had received her items. This is ridiculous. Trying to manage this is way more trouble than its worth.

Mergify created more problems for me than it solved so I can't recommend it.

Edit: Issue with this app was on my network side, after their support reached out to me they help me figure out the issue. Great app and support highly recommend!

We used this app for only about 2 months and I want to say that the app is very good. Support is maybe a 4 out of 5 just for reaction time. Once in touch the support was quality.
We made a change to our order flow that eliminated the need for the merge but I can say that if I would have found this app sooner it would have saved me a lot of time and money.

Writing this review because of the above and beyond additional service their team has provided to making this app work for us. Mergify has been a game changer for us to allow post-purchase upsell orders merge with their original order so that we can save almost double on our shipping COGS. We had a few deep technical issues that Mergify took the time to help by writing extra code within their app to accommodate. We've seen a significant profit lift by utilizing Mergify alongside a post-purchase upsell program, increasing our AOV while maintaining low shipping costs.

I really appreciate the customer support! We already had a few errors when merging our orders, but after we addressed them, they were able to fix the issues super quickly and the problems haven't happened since. I can recommend this app!

Gross, they switched to 5 total merges and now you have to sub for $10 a month for 35 total, then it incrementally gets more expensive the more you use it. I'll take my Netflix subscription elsewhere; thank you

Great support. Very responsive to our concerns and even went above and beyond to fix/add features that we needed.
