Better Reports

This App works fantastic!!! We have the Basic Shopify eCommerce plan, but also use Shopify POS for our small retail store. For my retail store, I needed to be able to generate a couple reports where weekly or monthly sales could be run for a specific vendor or product. Shopify Analytics would not give me this option. Turned-out I needed to have the "regular" Shopify plan (not basic) in order to get access to the "better" retail reports! This would have cost me $50 extra per month, at least. For $19 per month, I was able to use Better Reports, to get the exact reports I needed. Saves me $30+ per month by using this App! Also, they give a trial period before starting monthly charges, which gave me time to ensure that the app would be able to generate the reports I needed, which they did. They also will create custom reports for you, if needed. Definitely recommend.

This app is awesome! So many options for prebuilt, powerful reports. And then you can create your own custom reports and include a TON of information. Then, the best part is being able to schedule reports so that they can be emailed to you every day or on whatever schedule you need.

The customer service is incredible. I had a questions about adding a specific field to my custom report, and I received a reply from Claudia in less than 10 minutes that she had added it to my report for me.

Highly recommend this app for anyone looking to level up their reporting capability in Shopify!

AH! I can't even believe I haven't reviewed this app yet! I literally use Better Reports EVERY SINGLE DAY (even on the weekends). It guides our business in profound ways. I just made a weekly report that evaluates profitability per order and orders over time so we can evaluate the effect of some pricing increases we just made. The information in Better Reports DRIVES our business.

It isn't pretty. There are no fancy charts. It's PURE DATA. If you need pretty charts, you're going to have to make those yourself.

But pure data is what I need; since it's SO INTENSELY CONFIGURABLE, I can create a report for almost anything that I want to know... and if I can't find a data point that I'd like to see, I just reach out to their support (live chat) and they'll create the data point... they've even created new reports for me when I get stuck trying to envision the data I'm trying to get. Their customer service is really great (Hi Keanna!).

I've used tons of metrics apps and dashboards, including Google Analytics, Triple Whale, and Peel (as well as the standard Shopify reports that come with Shopify Plus). We are a very data-driven business, and there are infinite ways of slicing and dicing data... I believe that Better Reports actually provides a competitive advantage because I can investigate theories that other CEOs just don't have access to.

My only complaint is that the cost goes way up for Shopify Plus, and since Shopify Plus has pretty robust and configurable report building, it's a little duplicative.

But with Better Reports, I can automatically schedule reports to be published to Google Sheets, and use Zapier to take the Google Sheets, and post those numbers in Slack... so it provides us a cool opportunity to have real flash report data whenever we need it, where we'll see it. So ultimately, it's worth it.

There is nothing else like this app.
