Shopify Marketplace Connect

Extremely Disappointing Experience
I'm beyond disappointed with this app, which cost me my 250 free ebay listings and more! The lack of support is staggering, especially compared to smaller apps with super fast support. With this app, you're left waiting for Shopify to respond, which feels like an eternity. Chloe should be fired.

I've experienced major issues with this app, including duplicate entries being created every time a product sells on my eBay store, forcing me to manually delete them. The app also auto-relists items despite settings to prevent it, resulting in unnecessary eBay fees. To make matters worse, I've received zero support from the app, leading to a month's worth of profits lost to fees.

I strongly advise against using this app unless you enjoy manually tracking inventory and dealing with duplicate entries. I'm migrating my store to a reputable third-party app with actual support and reliable functionality. I hope this review gets someone's attention, but I'm not holding my breath and it won't change my willingness to use this dumpster fire app!

Rating: NEGATIVE 5! Stay away!!

We installed this app to connect Amazon and Walmart marketplaces to our Shopify store. Unfortunately, we were unable to link our products. We opened a support case on the 15th of July, and despite assurances that Marketplace Connect's developers were working to fix our issue, almost a month later and we still have not had a response.

Shopify Marketplace Connect is holding back our business due to poor support, forcing us to look for alternatives.

App creates order for FBA but does not updates Shopify inventory. HORRIBLE APP

Not secure. There is an integration issue with Walmart, and customer support requested we share private API key pairs and secrets in plaintext. Unimaginable.

Had to migrate over to connect after codisto was discontinued. The negative reviews were spot on. My steady Amazon sales are gone. Most of my listings went to error and are now inactive. It's a complete guessing game how to correct. Hours with chat and on phone with Customer service. Got brushed off by service tech. Said I needed to escalate my issue to another department and I would be contacted via email and call within 24 hours. Neither happened. Marketplace Connect is not easy and not for people without extensive training. Even the Techs at Connect can't get my Shopify listings to connect to Amazon

Short review: App is slow, buggy, and may lead to your eBay account and Walmart account being suspended. Avoid this app.

Detailed review: I hate to leave a 1 star review but need to express how frustrating our experience with Marketplace Connect support has been. We switched over to using this app months ago and got our eBay sync set up to our account we've been selling from since 1998. Our account is now on a warning to get the seller rating up due to all of the cancellations we've had to do since using this app. It has constant sync issues with our Shopify inventory. If we sell something in store? It may take days, if ever (seriously) for it to update on our eBay store. Naturally this leads to regularly overselling items.

That's after you can get past the VERY slow UI on Marketplace Connect's end for setting things up. The Walmart connection is even slower to navigate, but at least, so far, that sync is stable. To their credit, they have improved the navigation on the eBay side some since we started using it, and I suspect a large part of their issue is that they just are not optimized for stores such as ours with hundreds of thousands of SKU's.

We've regularly provided support with updates on oversells and sync issues. They are always very fast to respond (kudos to the 1st level support group!). But they never have answers. We have zero communication from them other than when we send over a new example. No updates what-so-ever. After months. So when we do ask for an update on the underlying issue, 1st level support says the ticket is still with the engineering team and there is no further update to provide.

I feel like we've given support ample time to fix their issues, or at least *COMMUNICATE* with us on a regular basis to know what to expect. We've had to put our eBay account into vacation mode at this point and seek alternative options.

Edit: It's been well over a month and we've since found a different app from the eBay sync (Lionz) where all is working smoothly. In that month, the Marketplace Connect support has had one single response to our long open ticket. It was a promise from one of their developers that they would be looking into our ticket further, and that they would stay in touch. Not a word since then. So for anyone having similar issues, please check out Lionz instead. They are eBay sync only for now, but actually work well for that portion.

Second edit:

We continued using Marketplace Connect to sync with Walmart. It worked for a few months, but now sadly suffers from all of the same issues we ran into with the eBay connection. Items sold in store do not get removed from Walmart, leading to oversells days, weeks, even months later. App support is not helpful. They just thank us for the bug report submissions, but nothing gets fixed or communicated beyond that. So we are divesting ourselves entirely from this app and moving on.

I was forced to migrate from a perfectly working app to this "new" one, and it's been nothing but problems ever since. The lack of support is infuriating and unacceptable.

My main issues are:

I cannot see my products.
I cannot link my products.
My entire shop is out of sync, and I don't have the time to fix problems that this app caused.

Please fix my shop immediately.

Be careful, this app doesn’t restock items after order cancellation. With each cancellation, you’ll accumulate physical stock that won’t be reflected on the website. We are increasingly considering making something else the primary source of inventory instead of Shopify, as it has too many inconveniences.

Was working OK,( the shopfiy makeover after they absorbed the app was a complete disaster ), but now our inventory is not syncing for days - we are now overselling 6-8 items on ebay everyday. They have been unable resolve the situation for several weeks now. We have to scramble to restock items, or refund purchases. Hours of our time wasted, and we look like amateurs who don't know how to run a business. And it is not cheap. Looking for alternatives.

The worst possible connector app... you think everything goes smooth and then BOOM all your listings on a marketplace get deleted and nobody at support knows what to do. There goes years and years of work. HIGHLY RECOMMEND GOING TO A DIFFERENT APP.

This app was so bad we deleted it the day after we went through 2 support chats and nobody had any clues how to help.
