SC Product Options

The app itself is a great add-on to Shopify. My only two issues are 1. There are a lot of steps and screen hopping to setup product options. 2. It sometimes takes FOREVER to display on product. That's a pain when you are doing webwork and would like to see it. This morning it took over 15 minutes to display. I'd love to give 5 stars, just can't.

We use multiple BOLD apps, but Product Options is our most used as it allows our customers to build a custom product of their own. I love the text box character limits, the ability to give options condition logic to hide or show depending on what the customer picks. Product Options has made our website easier and more user friendly walking our customers through the ordering process.

As with anything in technology, issues or bugs may occur, but that best part of BOLD is how quickly they take care of these issues. I love that once I open a support ticket, I receive an email with a ticket number and within 24 hours I have a team member supporting the issue. BOLD has even helped our personal coder to assist him in setting up something custom for us.

My favorite part of using BOLD apps are the routine emails they send giving tips on how to use their apps to your benefit. This years Black Friday University was especially helpful and motivating for our team to get into the holiday spirit.

Couldn't run my store with out! Thanks!

When the App works its great, if you eve get a problem with it, you'll wish you'd gone for something else, because the customer service is non-existent, and in this fast paced web world we live in, this is totally unpardonable! I would give 5 stars for the App for what it does when working OK, it's really good. That's the upside, if I had known the downside before getting all of our products hooked on the App, I would never have gone for it. It will often (more often than not!) freeze on you when working, resulting on work being lost and having to be redone. We got into the habit of saving our work every couple of moves just so we weren't caught out, but its a total pain in the rear. Then there's the problem of massive and varied delays in synching with Shopify, anything from a few minutes (occasionally) to several hours (most of the time!) which make working with the App extremely time consuming. Lastly there is the BOLD unbelievably poor customer service. You used to be able to email support but now (from 21st. July 2022 on) you get an auto email 3 hours later advising that "To serve you better, we are asking that you connect with our support team through our Help Center. From here, you can submit a support ticket, chat with a product specialist, view our helpful articles, and even create an account to track your ticket progress." Filling out a support ticket which prompts a series of auto emails, spending hours trawling through the "help center" and attempting to talk to a real person on their 'live' chat is a soul-destroying and time wasting experience, it took me 8 hours of frantically trying everything to get a human response. Once I had a human (it seems like there's only one there - Alina, unless they're all called that!) to go through our issues (which was a BOLD issue, not of our making), it was dealt with within 24 hours, but the total drama meant that we had possibly lost £1,000's of business in the meantime. For us to change now would be a massive operation, but because of the above experience, we have started to investigate other Apps to do the same thing. When your business depends on it, you can't rely on an automated service, yes, you need FAQs to get X% of issues dealt with automatically but for the other X% unless you have the back up of excellent customer service carried out quickly and efficiently, you're taking a huge gamble. We'll follow the advice of other one star reviews here and check out other possibly better and possibly cheaper Apps with a proper customer centric focus. Bye-bye BOLD.

Rony and nirav helped me with something I needed desperately and was the best! He went above and beyond the call of duty and I finally got my Shopify store exactly as wanted. Bold is the best app for anyone with intricate options

Great app, removes limitations for product options and customisation are easily accomplished by speaking to support, Daniel sorted everything for me in super quick time. highly recommended

I'm not in love with this app BUT when it works, it works. I've contacted support several times - Tamer is helpful and aside from some limitations on their end, he was able to make some requested changes. I would not suggest their chat feature as the customer support rep I spoke with there was very rude and unable to provide any assistance at all.
The app is very time consuming when updating or creating many options for products. They have a time out feature of one hour - so if you are working on something longer than that (which I do often), you will lose any work when it times out. That is very frustrating and something that really needs to be addressed, as in completely removed!
The app doesn't appear to work on older version of IE. I've had several customers contact me that they were unable to view the form which means they are unable to order a product.
I'd like to see a way to copy product conditions and set options. This would be helpful as many times I am using several of the same options with one or two changes. Instead of having to recreate the ENTIRE set, being able to copy it would help with the one hour time limit.
It would also be very helpful to be able to assign the options directly from the Shopify products page instead of spending so much time in the app with a time limit on your work.

So far so good with this app. Really appreciate the ability to chat with support. Nir was very helpful!

Nice app. I was able to do what I envisioned. Created 3 option layers in just minutes. Tech support was fast and very friendly.

This particular app (plus a bunch of other by the same people), are THE particular reasons I haven't abandoned the Shopify platform altogether and gone shopping for something else!
Nah! ... but I tell you, Shopify should SERIOUSLY consider going to the piggy with a hammer and buying this guys up. That good are their apps and post-sale service. The functionality and flexibility they add to the more advanced Shopify store is unique in the Shopify app ecosystem. You can shop around for a cheaper alternative (been there, have the T-shirt) but you will fall short on your objectives or obtain just that, a cheaper product.
