What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants appreciate this app for its ability to automate various tasks, including managing receipts, updating product info, and automating email flows. Its flexibility and customizability are highly valued, allowing tasks to be tailored to specific needs. Merchants find it reliable, efficient, and user-friendly. The support team is commended for their quick responses and ability to create custom tasks. The app's community, particularly the Slack channel, is a useful resource. It's cost-effective, potentially replacing multiple other apps, and suitable for both tech-savvy merchants and those with limited coding knowledge. The comprehensive documentation and pay-what-you-think-is-fair pricing model are also appreciated.

Amazing app, amazing support, highly recommended!
At first I was a little overwhelmed when confronted with the task to get exactly the automation I need - but then I saw the option to request custom tasks. I did that, and a day or so later, Isaac sent me a note that the job was done and exactly what I needed was in the openly available task list, now. Really cool! Works like a charm.

Best app I use for my store: if you are not a developper, you can use one of the numerous pre-made tasks. Many of them are incredibly useful and fulfill tasks for which you would usually need to pay for a dedicated app => you can save money and stop buying apps for every single feature you need.
I you are a developper, you can do stuff that are so advanced, you can pretty much do almost everything you need.
And also the support is incredible. I have asked for help numerous times because I am a clumsy developper, and I was always assisted with detailed instructions way beyond what you could ask for a support team.

Finally, an App that actually works. After trying many solutions and discovering they fail silently, only do 50% of the job, or just won't work, Mechanic was a breath of fresh air. I'm so glad to have found Mechanic. The team has the right attitude, response, and a product that actually works, unlike half the other stuff out there.

There are around 300 automations that are amazing. We're using mostly quality-of-life tasks for our store, but this app can be such a huge time saver. Oh and their support is amazing (and fast). This is really one of the best apps you could find on the store and I wish more people knew about it so we can support this amazing development team!

Mechanic is THE BEST app on Shopify hands down. It should have a lot more 5 star reviews then it currently has now.

Support is great! Isaac, Matt and the team on slack does such an awesome job helping answer questions for trouble shooting tasks or even task writing. Even if you're not writing your own tasks, the task library constantly have new tasks that provides great utility uses in your everyday operations.

The pricing philosophy is one of the best I've ever seen. The team really does work with you regardless of if you're a small or big revenue merchant.

Why is Mechanic the best? Just think Shopify Flow, but on steroids. It can do almost any task to make your backend operations organized and fluid. Need to tag orders that is the customer's first order? Or tagging customer for membership product and removing it after the membership duration is over? There's a task for that.

As of now there are 332 tasks in the task library. Go check it out and see if it has what you need - https://tasks.mechanic.dev/

We have Mechanic on our website and it felt like having a virtual assistant working for you 24/7 without complaining to do the same task over and over again. Not only it cut down a lot of costs, it is also upgradeable with more tasks. Thanks, man, your app makes my day

Truly amazing app! To have access to Shopify's API without having to host an app ourselves is truly a gamechanger!

I mainly installed this app to help manage my orders for my handmade items. I am limited to how many I can take per day, but with a large inventory it’s impossible to be manually monitoring and deactivating (plus this leads to enquiries ‘wHy CaN’t I oRdEr’, because FAQs are obviously just there for fun!).
Plus it’s impossible to monitor when you are sleeping I use the task which limits daily orders and had a number of back and forths with Isaac to get this set up. He was extremely patient and thorough with me, and I now have a store that is perfectly self managed! Can’t recommend enough!

This app is wonderful and the customer service is out of this world. With a combination of group and direct support tricky requests are always solved promptly. Would highly recommend.

I'm really happy with this app so far. I am using it to do a bunch of different tasks. E.g. email customers about outstanding order payments. Send them email when an order is taking too long and so forth.

It's not saving me any money yet on my other apps as it doesn't quite do what they do. But hopefully it will in the future.
