Overview
What happens when the item is out of stock? Naturally, you lose a couple orders before you catch up. But, more importantly, you lose credibility as a merchant. The customer goes elsewhere to find the item and, next time, he’ll skip your store altogether.

Once you do a little setup like some of the reviews suggest this app is very useful. We love it!
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
Just starting playing around with this, and will see how it works. hopeful it will serve our needs!
