Thank you.

This app is a huge enabler for the e-commerce side of our business, and the updates over v1 make it significantly easier for customers to manage their own subscription changes. When we have had questions or integration items to address, the BOLD team has been responsive and thorough. Special shout out to Brysen on the customer support team--thank you for going the extra mile to thoroughly address our questions.

TL;DR This app charges WAY more for WAY less functionality

We have been using the BOLD Subscription app for over 9 years and I have been incredibly disappointed in the transition from v1 to this version of the app.

The new version of the app is missing several key features that were included in v1:
*No customer activity notification: in v1 we would get an email if a customer changed or canceled their subscription order, keeping our customer service team in the loop.
*No confirmation to the customer if they change or cancel their order. There are email confirmations when a subscriber starts a new subscription or there is a payment issue, so I don't know why they didn't include options for editing or canceling a subscription.
*In v1 customers could define their own subscription interval. Creating multiple variations to match the intervals that our customers are looking would create a very cumbersome list for the customer to have to sort through.
*Flat Rate Shipping only for subscription order. We have subscription customers who use our local pick-up option, guess we won't be getting orders from them anymore!
*Doesn't work with other BOLD apps. One of the main selling points for us almost a decade ago was that we could use the BOLD Subscriptions app with Custom Pricing and Upsells, but according to the BOLD Help Center the apps are no longer compatible.

To add insult to injury our cost for BOLD Subscriptions is projected to 100x (yes, that is a one-hundred times increase!) over the cost we were paying for v1. I thought shrinkflation at the grocery store was bad, but this is ridiculous. We are currently looking at upgrading to Shopify Plus to manage our custom pricing and switching to the Shopify subscription app.

I will say the front-line service team that I have interacted with has always been perfectly pleasant and are probably the best employees in the entire company.
