XERO SYNC by Bold , 213 則評價

Worst experience ever with this app. All it does is create problems and issue with incorrect sku's in Xero. Avoid this app at all cost.

I have been using this app for a couple of years, worked well despite a few bugs here and there. The new pricing model is absolutely outrageous and is the reason why I will look for another solution to integrate to Xero. A shame.

I'll pretty much echo what a lot of other reviews have mentioned recently. For a free app it's ok. It works mostly but then the feed breaks down occasionally and there is no mechanism to notify you when it happens so you may not discover it until you do reconciliations in Xero and find that transactions are missing. I don't know about anyone else but I have my hands full with running my store and my business, I don't do this task everyday so that means it could be a month or so of a broken feed before I notice. The answer I got on this was "oops unfortunately that functionality is not yet available". Then on top of it, I get an email saying "we've done a lot of work on this app recently" blah blah "and now we want to charge a small fee for the app! Oh and btw, your fee based on volume of sales will be $59.99/mo!" I'm sorry what? Who considers $59.99 a month for an app that does no revenue generating, basically passes transactions back and forth (that's it), breaks down and is full of bugs, a reasonable, not to mention SMALL fee??? I emailed them expressing my outrage at the pricing and the fact that the app doesn't even work as it should and was told that yes they've done a lot of work on the app in recent times and will be doing more work in the future. Is there anything else we can help you with??? I had to laugh only because what is the other alternative! Money grab like no other, and very little value. Hate it and will be looking for other solutions ASAP.

The reconciling works well, however payments are sent to Xero twice, which is not helpful - and they then tell you that it's a Xero fault, which is not - because it's only started happening since using this app! Not helpful at all! We are dealing with Mo...

Will be deleting bold app after this surprise fee introduction. I don't understand why it makes sense to pay more than the Shopify OR Xero apps themselves simply to transfer data from one to the other. I would expect Bold will lose a lot of customers with this move.

UPDATE - I have talked to the Bold team, and they have no explanation for the pricing structure they are introducing. This is the biggest price gouge I've ever experienced as a Shopify customer. The pricing structures are based on number of orders exported, so it is very clearly an effort to take advantage of companies with more revenue. The pricing structure is not related to the service provided at all. This is a very bad business practice.

I will still be deleting this app as soon as I find a workaround. I notice their review rating has plummeted since the new pricing was introduced. I'm not surprised.

Everything stopped and now we have to pay crazy fees... they didn't even advise to let us know. Plus it doesn't work very well

Really great support from Rony, he was able to solve my two issues in a matter of minutes. Thanks a lot!

This App is horrific. Complete waste of time and money. It used to be free and good - it's now expensive and awful. My book keeper is spending days trying to untangle your mess.

UPDATE - USE AN ALTERNATIVE TO SHOPIFY AND XERO IF YOU CAN. Had this for a while... got it when it was free from Shopify. Well, Shopify sold it to Bold and today I received an email where they had the gall to say there would a 'small' fee for using the app moving forward. 'Small' turns out to be approx. $100 AUD per month. It's just another charge on top of Shopify's many app charges. So, now I'm paying for Shopify, the 'integration app' between Shopify and Xero AND Xero itself. Costs about $500 AUD per month just for these three things. BUYER BEWARE WITH SHOPIFY. IT IS GETTING VERY PRICEY TO USE ALL THE APPS YOU NEED. I'm sure there is a better solution.
OLD REVIEW...
I love it when it's working! Definitely worth having. Would be great if they could fix the disconnection issues as this creates a bit of havoc for us. Basically, everything is working fine but about once a month Shopify and Xero disconnect and it takes days to get it connected again. Sometimes this is easy... sometimes you have to go to multiple places to try and get someone to give you a straight answer on how to fix it. As most of you know, when you're a business owner, having to chase these things is a real pain.

excellent - a real time saver.
