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.

An absolute must-have automation tool. Helps you go from being a normal user to a Shopify superuser. The open-source catalog of existing Mechanic tasks is an incredible resource for learning about the power of the platform.
Probably the most powerful app on Shopify. Mechanic is a tremendously amazing workflow automation app that we can't live without. It allows for all sorts of tasks (e.g. Tag an order if a discount code is used, send out a discount code if an order contains X, change a fulfillment location based on customer address). There are templated tasks that are also infinitely customizable for your needs. On top of that, there's an incredible Slack community to support it, with super fast response times and contractors who can help develop tasks for your shop at very good prices (+1 Brad as well). Thanks Mechanic for being so amazing.
one more time, superb app, this guy sreally rock! super attention, and is superb the tasks they have, it seems they "read" our mind!
Such a great app! Filled a big gap for us and enabled us to automate a lot of tasks and business logic without the hassle of managing our own private apps.
This is one of the best developer apps out there on Shopify! The team is super helpful, the Mechanic community on Slack is excellent, and there are literally limitless opportunities to automate your store with this app. Highly recommend!
This app literally saved my business! Not only are the available functions currently available worth the cost alone, the fact you can build your own makes this worth every penny!
Also, Issac @ Lightward helped me tremendously by building the function I needed to add a limit on the amount of total orders received per calendar day. He openly worked with me to gather the requirements and make tweaks as needed, which I could not have done without his help! Plus...this function was added so that any users of Mechanic now has access to this feature as well!
If you have even an ounce of dev understanding, this app will change your shopify experience. And if you don't, learn it quick and come back
With Mechanic the possibilities for customization of your Shopify store are endless. Developers in their Slack channel are responsive, reasonable and pleasant to work with. Also the documentation at docs.usemechanic.com is invaluable if you're new to Liquid.
wow. I have no idea why this functionality isn't included in Shopify by default. But this app does exactly what it says it does, which is amazing!
Isaac (the dev) is the kind of person we need more of - you can sense the empathy and understanding in all of the communication. You know how you've see help files and you can tell they're written from a place of frustration (the writer doesn't seem to care about the reader). You can tell Isaac genuinely wants this app to solve your problem, and will write stuff in such a way to make that as likely as possible to happen (and it works).
You can probably replace a ton of apps with this, and make them work exactly how you want them to. And feel good about paying for it.
the two most important apps i got is Mechanic and a reporting app. without those, shopify management can be a nightmare.
they weren't kidding about the base tasks they got. you will definitely have something you can use out of the box. as for the stuff that aren't on it, well, you got Isaac and his team who can help you through the minefield of code.
