Shopify Bundles

i just wish this would take off all ready

Really keen to see some more enhancements on this app. It works pretty well however there are some key elements missing.

1. NO ability to report on anything related to the bundle performance (and I mean ZERO). e.g Which bundle is selling best? What contribution of sales are coming from bundles? So if you want ANY visibility on how these bundles are tracking, you won't find it. We have spoken with support and they have confirmed this. Something to note before you are installing.
2. It is very easy to use, its quicker to set up!
3. Stock is easy to manage, no issues with inventory.
4. NO ABILITY TO REPORT *its a huge downfall
5. No ability to use any 'sort by' feature for your product category (if containing bundles)

Excited to see this expand and evolve, but we can't use it as it stands now. We're revisiting this app in the future and hopefully some of the cons here will have been worked out.

Pros:
1- Auto price calculation and updating.
2- Might provide more accurate stock or less discrepancies ( which happen already very rarely with the other bundles app we use).
3- You can see that the line items are bundles in Shopify. You can't see this in the other app we use.

Cons:
1- Can't show in any sale channel except online store, no POS and no IG social media. So it's affecting instagram marketing.

2- The line item "type" takes the "type" from components and doesn't have its own. This causes issues with our email flows so people don't receive an associated email we have set up. Changing the product type or tags on the components would affect all of our other collections conditions.

3- Stock tracking and adjustment history and committed orders don't show on the kit line item which makes stock investigations a bit more complex.

4- App feel like a work in progress features-wise

5- Bulk edit doesn't work on some of the features so we have to use another app for edits like the weight.

6- Can't be used on a pre-existing line item which means we would have to re-do ALL existing bundles. The investment of this work is high.

7- Printed invoices don't reflect that the customer has bought a bundle so it makes pulling and organizing orders harder (especially if it's a launch with bundles from different pulling locations in addition to non-bundled items).

GOOD APP

Unfortunately, it doesn't include the "compare at" feature normal products do so a sale price cannot be added - you would expect to make a saving on a bundle, so I think this has been overlooked...

Long time in the making, but finally a bundle solution from Shopify!

Works pretty well and it's always better to use the native apps in my opinion.

Only things that I would like to see added as a matter of urgency:

1. Dynamic compare-at-price and SKUs, currently only the "price" is dynamically added together. Would like for the other two to pull through as well ideally. Could also do with some styling, symbol or different colour to show they are dynamic and linked to the bundle components. (Then allow people to decide whether they want dynamic or to input their own.)

2. Allow certain components to be "required or not required" so say you had 3 products, the first 2 could be required, and the 3rd could be an optional extra with the default setting being something like "Not required"

3. Allow drag and drop re-ordering of the components in the bundle app.

4. Allow the ability to show/hide the actual components on the bundle page, currently the components only show if they have variants, might be nice to allow all of the components to show regardless of variants.

Let's hope they keep updating this app and improve it going forward!

Very good feature for a multiple products store.

missing a lot of key features that other bundle apps provide, for instance, the bundles only show on your online store they do not pull show on other sales channels.

A bundle is not treated like a product. So you can't put it on the shopify shop app. Nor can you market it in Google
The bundle should be treated like a product and have all the features of a product.

I sell personalised products and I have an app installed that allows the customer to complete a form to tell me what they would like embroidered on the duffle bag set for example.

It's one product on my website but when I receive the order from shopify, it's broken down into three individual products which completely removes any personalisation data the customer has entered.

Which means I then have to contact them to get the information.

I've spent hours/days/weeks creating bundles only for it to be a complete nightmare.

I really hope there is an option added for us merchants to receive the order as one product - not three individual products!

Devasted!
