This review was submitted by an inactive store where our app was installed for less than an hour, and no features were used. Naturally, we thought this was a misunderstanding and tried contacting the author, but to no avail. After inspecting the store and related social media accounts, Shopify acknowledged the review was false, but said they could not interfere. We will continue trying to clarify the situation.

I chose Metafields Guru after reading its promises of “one-click bulk management,” “Excel-like automation,” and “Shopify Flow integration that speeds up work.” After using the app and exchanging several emails with the team, here is the reality:
1. No real automation – Every metafield/metaobject value still has to be typed or pasted manually. Filters help, but they don’t auto-populate or predict data.
2. Feature overlap with Shopify – Shopify’s free admin already lets me bulk-edit metafields in a grid, copy/paste across products, and automate assignments with Flow. MG adds no time-saving logic beyond what I can do natively.
3. Paid tiers ≠ extra value – The “Excel-like editor,” “advanced editor,” and credit-based bulk actions are just alternative UIs for tasks Shopify covers for free. The advertised productivity gain is missing.

Because the delivered functionality does not match the marketing claims, I’m requesting a full refund of my subscription and any unused app credits.

Recently, Shopify updated its review publishing process to let developers preview reviews before publication. Yesterday, upon seeing a negative review from a merchant who briefly used our app without contacting support, our dev team investigated if the merchant could've encountered any technical issues and confirmed everything was fine. After I reached out to the merchant, we had a constructive dialogue where he pointed out disappointment from unfulfilled expectations of AI-powered automation, which had never been advertised. We also discussed other automation-related topics, which, despite being raised and quoted by the merchant, couldn't be found on our resources. Today, Shopify published an edited version of the review with unjustified accusations of misleading marketing. It surprised the entire team and contrasted with the conversation in a support ticket, where we appeared to come to a mutual understanding. As a team behind the category-leading app, we constantly improve our product, are open to suggestions, and are down to help our users even with issues that do not relate to our product. At the same time, we value the reputation we earned over the past 6 years and can't let a misinterpretation affect it. Hopefully, the additional context makes the situation clearer for the community.

In den letzten Wochen haben wir versucht, unsere Metafelder mit Zusatzdaten der Artikel in den Shop zu importieren. Dabei haben wir verschiedene Anbieter getestet, aber mit keinem zufriedenstellende Ergebnisse erzielt. Dies lag möglicherweise auch daran, dass viele Anbieter diesen Service nicht besonders priorisieren.

Auf Empfehlung von Gabe haben wir es mit Metafields Guru versucht. Allerdings hatten wir auch nach mehreren Versuchen Schwierigkeiten, die Metafelder erfolgreich zu importieren – was eindeutig an unserer eigenen Unerfahrenheit lag.

Der entscheidende Unterschied zu anderen Anbietern zeigte sich jedoch im Support. Nachdem wir Sascha von Metafields Guru kontaktiert und unsere Datei zugeschickt hatten, erhielten wir nur wenige Stunden später eine detaillierte Rückmeldung. Sascha hatte nicht nur genau analysiert, wie wir vorgehen müssen, sondern lieferte auch eine Anleitung mit Screenshots, die den Importprozess Schritt für Schritt erklärte. Dank dieser Unterstützung funktionierte der Import auf Anhieb.

Obwohl Metafields Guru eine komplexe und umfangreiche Anwendung ist, haben wir uns aufgrund der herausragenden Unterstützung und Erreichbarkeit des Teams für ein Abonnement entschieden. Sascha und sein Team haben mit ihrem Engagement und exzellentem Support alle anderen Anbieter, die wir ausprobiert haben, bei Weitem übertroffen.

Un der Preis liegt auch weit unter den anderen Anbietern!

Hi there,

It appears you need help connecting a metaobject to your store's theme. Although this is different from what our app was designed for, we will gladly guide you in the right direction. We have not received any emails from your team before or after this review was submitted, so please respond to the one we sent you to continue the conversation.

Update November, 13.
It took a bit, but we managed to sort things out. The merchant attempted to use an image-oriented theme extension block to display a complex metaobject on the product page. This was not an expected nor advertised use case for this feature. Plus, their free subscription plan does not include theme extensions, so the merchant wasn't happy with the results. But we are the category-leading app for a reason. We contacted the merchant, walked them through their problem, and offered multiple solutions. After that, we discussed other theme customization-related topics. The review is staying for some reason, though.

What I know about metafields would fit in a thimble. A very tiny thimble. I'm only just getting started with Metafields Guru to unlock the meta-magic for my Shopify store. It looks very promising. And I can already attest to the friendly and very responsive team behind this app. I'll be back to update this review as I discover more!

This is a nice extension, it just won't allow you in "More filters" or "Tagged" to actually type out your tags to filter out the data because the space bar will not work and you can only type one word out which means you'll do most of the work manually if you can't filter your products.

I really need help here and if this is not a function, I would like the team to update the app. I have too many products to work with and add metafields.

Wow! This app is a game-changer! Coming from the HTML5/CSS and WordPress worlds, I have been tearing my hair out trying to do something as simple as creating reusable code blocks in Shopify to reduce the amount of work involved with setting up product listings. Not only does Metafields Guru provide a simple and intuitive GUI to make the heavy-lifting a virtually codeless encounter, their team is utterly committed to their users. I created a support ticket through the app's help function and had a detailed answer with links and examples in under an hour! When I stumbled trying to implement the fix and wrote back again, I had the same kind of response and had it working within minutes. Even more surprising than the lightning fast-responses was the fact that they were both from the Co-founder and CEO during off-hours. Sasha and his team earn every penny you invest (which I absolutely chose to do, even though there is a free version available with tons of helpful support docs and examples.) Ukraine has long been known for its tech prowess, but to receive this kind of support in the midst of what their country is currently enduring is astonishing. If I could give this app more than 5 stars, I would. The 256 Development team absolutely earns it! This app really is a game-changer. -Sue.

I rarely write reviews but I'm genuinely impressed with this app and the brilliant support, so it deserves it. I'm running it on a store with over 4500 products. I had previously tried a couple of other apps for editing/adding metafields, and found them all buggy or just unworkable. Metafields Guru has been excellent and surpassed my expectations. Working with metafields can be a painful process on. site with thousands of products, but Metafields Guru makes it a lot easier.

One of the most important things to have with an app is excellent customer service. Not being an expert with this app and having a developer install and set it up meant that I didn’t have a lot of background on how to operate this app on my own. When I reached out I received an almost immediate response with a plan of action. They went in and handled the issue for me and showed me step by step how they did it. I was thoroughly impressed with my experience and know that the right app was chosen for my site. Can’t say enough about how positive my experience was.

Been using the app for several weeks now, on thousands of products on our marketplace shop. It does an excellent job ! It present multiple solutions to solve each use-case (single edit, bulk, and now Sets). It's well thought, technically robust, and the interface integrates pretty smoothly within native Shopify screens. The team is kind and reactive, which is a pretty good point nowadays. Looking forward to testing the in-product-sheet editor that the team just released this week
